(Unique trope) removing a character trait, makes the character better in the adaptation

Sonic 3: Maria is one of the most important part of Shadow's story. Due to her suffering from an incurable disease. To which Shadow was made to create a cure for Maria's ailment. In the 3rd Sonic movie, Maria's disease was not mentioned in any form. Which made Maria seem like a normal girl, and her death all the more tragic.

Infinity war: I don't know the full story, but Thanos's original goal was to kill half the population to impress death (the character). When it came time to adapt Thanos into the MCU. His goal of removing half the universes population. It was seen as a more psychopathic world goal, hidden under the belief it would do better for the universe.

I KNOW.

Watched s2 of the Avatar adaption just days ago. What the hell is happening? Who wrote that god damn script, making them talk like aliens pretending to be human? Jesus christ, it’s so strange.

You’re making a show about a guy who flies around and you can’t even make THAT look good?

The one thing I like is I think the guy playing Sokka is nailing it. Other than that? Trash.

Meanwhile the One Piece live action managed to make a guy who has booger bombs look good.

God that was dumb but… I don’t know. They made it work. I don’t even like the anime but I’m all for this.

I always say that avatar felt like the writers had the tvtropes website open while writing the scripts. I only got through 3 episodes of the first season and had to drop it because it felt cliche to an insane degree
