* Happens a ton with Superheroes, especially Franchise/{{Batman}}. Thankfully, many superheroes have had many different genres positions on the SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism even in their own medium, which makes these easier to swallow.

* ''Manga/SuicideClub'' is a manga adaptation of [[Film/SuicideClub the film by the same name]]. The film's creator encouraged the mangaka to come up with his own take on the story. As a result, while the central theme of supernaturally-influenced suicides remains, the actual stories are very different.

Adaptations of this type fall into Type 2 of the SlidingScaleOfAdaptationModification by default: anything higher would require the adaptation to remain faithful to the tone of the source material, but [[InNameOnly anything lower]] would require the work to disregard even basic similarities. These adaptations may stray away from or even [[SpiritualAntithesis outright subvert]] the intent of the original work, but typically keep the basic premise intact.

* While most pinball games [[LicensedPinballTables based on existing works]] tend to be relatively loose adaptations (since the medium rarely allows for stories above {{Excuse Plot}}s), ''Pinball/CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon'' is particularly notable because the bulk of the game is themed around '50s [[DriveInTheater drive-in theaters]], with [[Film/CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon the original movie]] only getting "adapted" in its multiball mode.

* Charles Edward Pogue's original script for ''Film/TheFly1986'' took the central premise of the [[Literature/TheFly short story]] and its rather faithful [[Film/TheFly1958 1958 film adaptation]] -- a scientist's TeleporterAccident renders him a mix of man and insect -- and added the twist that the transformation wasn't a instantaneous swapping of body parts leaving a man with a fly's head and vice-versa, but rather a SlowTransformation on a molecular-genetic level into one HalfHumanHybrid. Creator/DavidCronenberg's total revision of that script started by changing the protagonists from a long-married couple to a lonely recluse and the reporter who becomes his lover as she chronicles, and even inspires, the refinement of his invention. The pivotal accident is not merely a quirk of fate, but a TragicMistake resulting from his jealousy regarding her ex. The SlowTransformation becomes a metaphor for the inevitability of disease and death, and the toll they take on both the bodies and psyches of the afflicted and those who love them -- depicted via some of the grisliest BodyHorror ever put to film.
