** Likewise, ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'' is based on the origins of the titular KillerRobot- but his creator Hank Pym a.k.a. ComicBook/AntMan is nowhere to be found, with Ultron instead originating as a project by [[ComicBook/IronMan Tony Stark.]] Though the official line is that Hank Pym as a character just comes with [[NeverLiveItDown/ComicBooks too much baggage]]- which was also the reason given for his absence in Film/TheAvengers2012 despite being a founding member in the books- the fact that he appeared as a major character (albeit after receiving a major AgeLift) in Film/AntMan the very same year may indicate that the producers just wanted to keep him in their pocket for a more meaningful debut.

** Aside from rights issues relating to certain properties, there is one missing character who in the comics is deeply connected to the Avengers and even played a direct role in the origins of at least two of their roster- [[Characters/IncredibleHulkSupportingCharacters Rick Jones.]] Despite being ''the'' reason Bruce Banner became ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk, the original partner and first human ComicBook/CaptainMarvel, the first and fastest friend of the resurrected ComicBook/CaptainAmerica, the second Bucky, and literally placing the call to each founding member that brought Earth's Mightiest Heroes together on that ''day unlike any other'', Rick has never made so much as a name-only cameo in ''any'' MCU movie. Instead, the role of Hulk's MoralityPet is bounced around between [[Film/TheIncredibleHulk Betty Ross,]] [[Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron Black Widow,]] and [[Film/ThorRagnarok Valkyrie,]] the role of Captain Marvel's sidekick is eliminated along with most of that character's history pre-Carol Danvers, and his spot as Captain America's pal and sidekick Bucky was given to, erm, Captain America's pal and sidekick [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier Bucky.]] Granted, nowadays it probably makes more sense for the Avengers to assemble at the behest of S.H.I.E.L.D. rather than a teenager with a [[TechnologyMarchesOn HAM radio club,]] but for those in the know the omission of a man who is frequently and accurately described as TheHeart of the Marvel Universe is glaring.

** One of the most important plot devices in the ''Warcraft'' universe, the Blood of Mannoroth, is nowhere to be seen, and Gul'dan empowers the orcs with fel magic directly instead. While this is plausible for a few orcs (as Durotan and his Frostwolves, Thrall, and Orgrim didn't drink the Blood but still eventually developed green skin), it seems inefficient for the masses of them in the movie. Likewise, neither Kil'jaeden or Ner'zhul appear in the film.
** On a similar note, Drek'Thar, the Frostwolf Clan's shaman, has been replaced by Orgrim Doomhammer (and fellow Frostwolf in this film) as Durotan's right hand Orc and closest advisor.
** Aegwynn and the Council of Tirisfal do not show up in the film. Instead, Medivh was raised and trained by the Kirin Tor to become the Guardian, with Khadgar being trained to become his successor.
** While [[spoiler: Medivh did turn into a demon in the end]], the concept of the [[LegionsOfHell Burning Legion]] is left almost completely untouched. In the non-movie continuity, Gul'dan's master was [[DemonLordsAndArchDevils Kil'jaeden]] and [[SatanicArchetype Sargeras]] had [[spoiler: possessed Medivh]] as part of the Legion's effort to destroy Azeroth. In the movie, it's basically implied that there was just some single unexplained demon who was the ManBehindTheMan.

* The live-action ''Film/{{Tekken}}'' movie is a ''very'' loose adaptation of Jin Kazama's origin story from ''Videogame/{{Tekken 3}}'', but leaves out some key characters:
** In the game, Jin's entire reason for entering the tournament was to destroy Ogre, the creature that killed his mother Jun. Ogre is nowhere to be seen in the film, and Jun is instead killed by Kazuya's Jackhammer forces.
** Jin's friend Xiaoyu and his rival Hwoarang are also removed. Xiaoyu's absence is especially notable since she's the closest thing Jin has to a love interest in the games, while the movie randomly pairs him up with Christie, a character he has ''zero'' connection to in the source material.

* Creator/TimBurton's film adaptation of ''Film/DarkShadows'' opens with Barnabas's backstory, which is ''extremely'' condensed (the about-100-episode 1795 arc into 7 minutes) and eliminates nearly every character other than Barnabas, Josette, and Angelique.[[note]]This includes Barnabas's little sister Sarah Collins, his uncle (and Josette's husband), Jeremiah Collins, his aunt, Abigail Collins, cousins Millicent and Daniel Collins (with Daniel being the direct ancestor of the present-day family), Josette's father and aunt, and several important non-relatives like Ben Stokes and the Reverend Trask. [[/note]] This leads to an AdaptationInducedPlotHole: if Barnabas and his parents Joshua and Naomi were the only Collins family members, and Angelique killed the latter two, then how are the present-day Collinses still kicking around in the 1970s? As far as the present-day, even ''more'' characters are left out, and that's not even counting any other characters in different time periods...

Friday Night Lights (the movie) adapted Odessa High School out of existence.
* ''Film/FridayNightLights'' focuses on the 1988 football season of Permian High School, depicted in the film as the only high school in the one-horse town of Odessa, Texas. Completely missing from the film is ''Odessa'' High School, the other big public school in what's actually a city of around 100,000. Though the original book focused on Permian, one chapter was devoted to the Odessa–Permian rivalry.
