Adaptational Weakling: Difference between revisions

Line 58:
* ''[[The ClueFinders]]'' generally has their founder and leader Joni as the tough one. She has a habit of being a [[Fearless Fool]] that rushes into situations without thinking, and doing most of the physical challenges. In the sixth grade game, Joni enforces this while offering herself as a hostage for the [[Anti-Villain]] plant queen in the third act. Joni admits that normally she would be the one going out to solve the problem, but as leader it's her responsibility to protect her friends, and she trusts them to carry out the task of {{spoiler|cleaning the water supply affecting the plant people}}. She takes {{spoiler|slowly being turned into a plant fairly well, ordering the team to not worry about her and keep finding the pesticide sources}}.
* Wilson Fisk a.k.a the Kingpin is one of ''the'' defining untouchable Marvel supervillains. Over his long career, he's rarely faced truly massive setbacks, and often bounces back quickly from his defeats. This is very much ''not'' the case in Sony's ''[[Spider-Man (2018 video game)|Spider-Man]]'' video games, where he's the [[Warmup Boss]] of the first game and never successfully escapes from prison. He does cause quite a bit of trouble behind bars due to his many contacts in the outside world, but even then he's still heavily outclassed by villains such as Mr. Negative and Hammerhead.
* In ''[[The Ring]]'', Samara is very much an [[Invincible Villain]]; nobody ever survives her assault, the only way a victim can even escape from her being to pass the curse to someone else. Not so in ''[[The Ring: Terror's Realm]]'' a very loose adaption of the franchise. Her, the protagonist can indeed fight her and survive - in fact, it's not even all-that hard. In fact, she even seems more formidable in the lampoon film ''[[Scary Movie]]'' (where the victim escapes because she accidentally causes the ceiling to fall on her). But then, it's not a very good game either.
