Today's chat comes directly from a conversation I recently had with a friend who insists that adaptations should not be faithful to the source material because different media have different storytelling needs that it needs to be adapted to. I feel that if you're taking on known (and often loved) material, then you should be as faithful to it as possible. Which side of the faithful vs. adaptation debate do you fall on? Why?
