Re: Defining “adaptation”

[(Anonymous)]

I definitely think intent has a lot more to do with it than strict characteristics. An unfaithful or barely-faithful take can still be an adaptation if whoever's in charge intends it to be an adaptation no matter how far off-book they go. An homage is more like a few deliberate nods (tone, visuals, a theme or character personality here and there ) but overall the intent was to develop something mostly unique. That way, if a nod to a trope or visual gets pegged as "hey, aren't you ripping that off from Star Trek?" they can say "homage" and it's safe. And probably intentional, to pay homage to a great work that came first and laid the ground for how this new work fits in. I would call the Orville an homage to Star Trek, for example.

then again, I genuinely feel that Independence Day is the best adaptation of War of the Worlds, even though there doesn't seem to have ever been an intent to adapt WotW. It exists as an homage because "aliens felled by earthly virus" is an established classic trope, but surprisingly, it follows the book's plot beats closer than any War of the Worlds Movie Adaptation of this Decade.
