These are what we call the 'YMMV items.' Things that some people find in this work. We call them 'your mileage might vary' because not everyone sees these things in the same way. This starts discussions in the trope lists, a thing we don't want. Please use the discussion page if you'd like to discuss any of these items.
YMMV: The Poseidon Adventure
The 1972 film:
Adaptation Displacement: Not so severe as some examples, but the book is much less famous than the film.
Tear Jerker: After Mrs. Rosen dies, her husband refuses to leave her side.
The 2005 TV movie:
What an Idiot: The Cruise Director, who gives away Rogo's purpose as a sea marshal, and insists that everyone stay inside the dining room, even after it's pointed out that the ship will inevitably sink.
What Do You Mean, It's Not Symbolic?: Near the end of the film, the survivors have to cross over a pit of fire via a narrow bridge. The only ones who don't make it are Badawi, who masterminded the terrorist plot, and Shoshanna, who was Richard's mistress.
