Adaptations that are really tame or kiddy compared to the source material

[(Anonymous)]

Examples of this sort of thing happening to fictional works that get adapted?

Minority Report

Like a bazillion anime series compared to the original manga.

holy shit this.

Like, would you ever compare Yu-Gi-Oh to the Saw horror movies? No? Well, you thought wrong:

What the fuck

My childhood O_O

yeah, early manga animated as Series 0 had some "fun" stuff, like Death-T, but they left out a lot of the Penalty Games.

Still, we got good old green-haired Kaiba:

Yugioh was... amazing. There were so many utterly insane aspects to that manga. Like the part where Yami Malik dueled with actual torture implements that iirc hurt the opponent as if they were being tortured or something.

Do Disney movies count?

Re: Adaptations that are really tame or kiddy compared to the source material

[ketita]

The only Disney one that REALLY makes me wtf is the Jungle Book.
Who the hell read the Jungle Book and thought to make it into a cutesy movie with singing animals? Who??

I've heard the manga of Welcome to the NHK is less painful to read than the book, and the anime is less painful than the manga. The anime's still pretty painful, so the book was pretty dark. (For instance, in the anime the main character gets addicted to porn, but from the clips I've seem, it's porn of adult women. In the book, he scours Usenet for photos of naked children.)

Hunchback of Notre Dame. Although to be fair, Hellfire, and Claude Frollo, are pretty damn horrifying for Disney.

Bambi. Way more death in the book.

Seconding this.

Watership Down. Especially the recent animated tv series, but even the nightmare fuel-ridden old movie is really cleaned up from the books.

Re: Adaptations that are really tame or kiddy compared to the source material

[(Anonymous)]

Your kidding, right? The book is worse than that movie? Not reading it, evar!

Re: Adaptations that are really tame or kiddy compared to the source material

[(Anonymous)]

And inverted with Plague Dogs, where the ending of the movie is somehow worse than the book. Somebody actually looked at a Richard Adams book, that Richard Adams book, and decided to make it more depressing. In an animated movie. Because why not? You don't actually need an unscarred soul anyway, do you?

Most of the Kidz Bopz CD's. Aren't they like up to #30?

Re: Adaptations that are really tame or kiddy compared to the source material

[(Anonymous)]

Have you seen the kidz bop lyrics for Anaconda?

The Fox and the Hound. In the book, the fox and the hound are mortal enemies from the start. There is a lot more violence. And there is also sexual content.

Re: Adaptations that are really tame or kiddy compared to the source material

[(Anonymous)]

That actually doesn't sound nearly as disturbing as the movie. The thing that made the movie so soul-destroying was the fact that they were friends first. Sex and violence? Who cares.

every Disney classic

"Mimsy Were The Borogoves" was one of those great old SF stories that seems harmless, even cute, but it takes darker and darker turns as it goes until it becomes really chilling. It's essentially about the fear parents have that their children are separate beings beyond their understanding.

The Last Mimzy was a direct-to-video movie that had obviously gone through many, many script drafts. It... well, google it.

Re: Adaptations that are really tame or kiddy compared to the source material

The Golden Compass, dear fuck.

the little mermaid. I read the original story when I was like eight because I loved the movie and I was slightly traumatized ("she turned into FOAM?!")

Re: Adaptations that are really tame or kiddy compared to the source material

The Hunger Games movies. They'd probably need to be rated NC-17 if everything described in the books was shown onscreen.
