* ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil4Remake:''
** The game cuts a lot of exposition, to the point of effectively cutting entire plot points from [[VideoGame/ResidentEvil4 the original,]] without which parts of the story don’t make sense. For one, in the original, Ashley's disappearance was thought to be due to a leak or traitor within the American government, and so they call on [[PlayerCharacter Leon]] because he was not involved in the President's security team when Ashley disappeared, so he was not a suspect. This fact was even exploited by Los Illuminados, with some found files stating to expect a slow American response due to them combing for the traitor. None of this is ever stated or implied in the remake, and Leon has no trouble speaking with [[MissionControl Agent Hunnigan]] or requesting evac as soon as he’s with Ashley, making it seemingly nonsensical that Leon was not only sent on the mission alone, but didn’t call for reinforcements as soon as he realized the village was a BOW site.
** In both versions, Bitores Mendez accosts Leon in the Village Chief's Manor, grabbing him by the throat and noticing he is infected with the Plaga. Like in the original, Ada intervenes by shooting Mendez through a nearby window and causing him to release his grip on Leon. But in the original, Mendez threatened Leon with death if he continued to cause trouble, then jumped out of the window in pursuit of Ada. Here he calmly leaves without a word. Him sparing Leon can be (somewhat ) justified by Leon's Plaga infection, but Mendez doesn’t even seem interested in chasing Ada, an obvious second interloper he has zero reason to keep alive.
** Midway through the castle, Leon loses contact with Hunnigan but there is no evidence of jamming or foul play by Los Iluminados; the signal simply cuts out due to unknown interference. Despite this Leon makes no attempt later on to reestablish communications, even after he communicates with Luis and Ada just fine.
** It's never explained how Mike knew to show up at the island to assist Leon during the climax, since they agree upon a different extraction point a ways away earlier in the story, and a moment where Leon attempts to contact with the outside world using the island's communication facilities (not getting a reply, but it’s still implied his message got out.) is cut from the remake.
** The ''Separate Ways'' DLC retcons it so that [[spoiler: Wesker is actually in the village around the same time as Leon and Ada (in the original, he was just Ada’s employer.)]] But given [[spoiler: Wesker’s]] enhancements canonically made him a OneManArmy, even compared to Ada, it's unclear why he even sent Ada on the mission instead of handling it himself, or at least working with her if he had no problem showing up in person.

* ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans2003'' does a very loose adaptation of the ''ComicBook/TheJudasContract'' storyline from the comics, but the AdaptationDistillation makes the heroes' eventual victory defy even WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief. In the comic storyline, Deathstroke and Terra were under orders from [[NebulousEvilOrganization The H.I.V.E.]] to capture the Teen Titans alive, and thanks to [[TheMole Terra's spywork,]] they succeed in capturing all but Dick Grayson, who narrowly escapes capture and joins forces with Jericho to free his teammates, who then defeat Terra, Deathstroke and the H.I.V.E. The series [[AdaptedOut removes H.I.V.E. and Jericho from the story;]] Slade just wants the Titans out of the way to terrorize the city, and so Terra fights and seemingly kills each Titan individually. But the Titans all [[UnexplainedRecovery survive the fights and regroup offscreen.]] Most of the Titans, the show at least presents as a case of NeverFoundTheBody both in-universe and out, but Robin gets crushed with a boulder, then Terra gives the insignia from his costume to Slade, yet appears fine later on, to Terra and Slade's surprise.

** In the [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994 original film]], it's made fairly clear why the hyenas are so willing to go along with Scar's plan: they're a bunch of bickering louts with no leader, he's able to bribe them with food, he's responsible for their initial attack on Simba and rewards them even after they fail, and based on the way they speak to him, it seems like they've known each other for a while. In the remake, it's made clear that Scar only met the hyenas after said attack, he doesn't offer them anything apart from his word, and the hyenas already have a clear leader in the form of an AdaptationalBadass-ified Shenzi. Yet the hyenas are still happy to fall in line for a very risky plan, based on the statements of the brother of the guy who just ripped through them like tissue paper. If anything, it makes one wonder why the hyenas didn't try to attack Scar the moment he showed up. And if they did want Simba dead so badly, why didn't they try to kill him themselves earlier in the rescue scene, when they had him surrounded, outnumbered about 12-1, and their leader present? (In the original, there's only three hyenas at the scene, one of which is Shenzi but she, again, isn't any kind of leader, and Simbra literally got the jump on them before quickly scaring them off instead of talking to Shenzi for a few minutes.)
