Often, a poor animated story adaptation can occur if the creators don't understand the essence of the source material. They might make changes that don't resonate with the audience or fail to capture the key elements that made the original story great. Also, time constraints or pressure to meet deadlines could lead to a rushed and subpar adaptation.
Well, being poor can result from various factors. Maybe it's because of limited economic opportunities in the area where you live, or having a lot of debts and not being able to manage them properly. Sometimes, unexpected events like a serious illness or a natural disaster can also push people into poverty.
The adaptation of a literary work into an animated script usually required some adaptation and reduction of the original work to adapt to the form of animation and the needs of the audience. During the adaptation process, the storyline, characters, and setting had to be reset to make the animation script different from the original. The quality of the adaptation depended on the ability and creativity of the adaptation team, as well as the quality and audience of the original work. If the original was more influential, the adapted work might gain more popularity and influence. The adaptation of the animation script also needed to follow the laws and characteristics of literature, such as the logic and cohesiveness of the plot, the shaping of the characters and the expression of emotions, etc., to ensure that the adapted work could better attract the audience's love and recognition.
" Devour the Starry Sky " and " Perfect World " were two animated films adapted from novels. Although the plot of " Devour the Starry Sky " was criticized by some viewers, its graphics and special effects were excellent. Special effects were an important indicator of the quality of a sci-fi work. " Perfect World " was based on Chen Dong's novel of the same name. It was produced by Fu Xu Film and Television and aired on TV on April 23, 2021. These two animations were adapted from novels and had longer plots, which could provide more story details and plot development.
It could be that the animation quality is poor, the pacing is off, or there's a lack of a clear theme. Sometimes, it's a combination of these factors that makes a story seem bad.
Maybe the plot is confusing or not engaging enough. Or the characters aren't well-developed and don't draw the audience in.
It could be that they didn't have a suitable story idea for a short that fit well before Toy Story 4. Sometimes coming up with a good concept can be challenging.
It could be that the story's concept was too complex to translate well into animation. Or perhaps there weren't enough experienced animators involved to bring it to life effectively.
Maybe it has a unique plot or interesting characters that attract people.
😋If you like the genre of "Absolutely Poor Child", I recommend a novel called "Brain Animation Machine". The protagonist can create the animation in his mind and bring the Chinese animation industry back to life. This novel is similar to urban life novels. If you like this genre, you can give it a try. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
Maybe it's to reach a wider audience and present the story in a more visual and accessible way.
