5!Examples:
6* AdaptationalVillainy: Book Ari was a TragicVillain. Movie Ari is much crueler and more violent even as a young child, and chooses to become an Eraser.
7* AdaptationPersonalityChange: Nudge is less talkative and more rebellious.
8* AgeLift: In the books, the kids ranged from 6 to 14; they are all significantly older, and in promotional material, Max was mentioned as being 17. Also, Ari is now Max’s age rather than Angel’s.
9* AMinorKidroduction
10* AllThereInTheManual:
11** A lot of information about the Flock and their powers is left out, although it’s briefly visible in the files during the opening credits.
12** An especially glaring example is how [[{{Deuteragonist}} Fang]] is never actually called by his name by other characters in the script, but is still listed in the credits.
13* ArtisticLicenseBiology: The wings of the Flock are not ''nearly'' large enough to actually keep them aloft.
14* CanonForeigner: A scientist played by Tina Huang.
15* CompressedAdaptation: Cuts off the second half of the book, ending with the Flock escaping from the School with Angel.
16* TheFilmOfTheBook: Or part of the book, anyway.
