[HATED] Adaptations done intentionally without help from the source

[u/Chill0000]

Halo TV show: Before the show came out, the writers were praising their decision to not look to the games for inspiration when making the show

God Of War TV show: Chris Judge, the actor of Kratos in the games from 2018-Now, spoke up about his dislike on the show not hiring anyone who worked on any of the previous games. One of the original creators of Kratos also spoke up about them not having faith in the adaptation.

Supergirl 2026 film: the director for the film not only said he decided to not read Woman Of Tomorrow, the comic the film is adapting, because he wanted to do his own thing, he also didn’t look at comic art for inspiration to design Lobo and instead used an AI image generator to design Lobo’s look for the film

? Aes sedai are female because the men go mad

[u/ealysillyforestthing → u/Moreh]

There used to be both men and women Aes Sedai but for the last three thousand years no man could be an Aes Sedai because they go mad.

Funny enough the Aes Sedai of this era are not the actual Aes Sedai, just a group of women channelers that called themselves that a few years after the Breaking

[u/CiDevant → u/ealysillyforestthing]

The second half is wrong.  The Breaking would have been living memory to channelers for about 500 years after.   Strong Aes sedai regularly lived to be 500+ years old until they made swearing the paths madatory.wore

No it's correct. That info came about when revelations about the Kin came out

You need a reread

[u/CiDevant → u/ealysillyforestthing]

Any channeler who was around "a few years after" the breaking would certainly be old enough to have been an Aes Sedai before the breaking.
