Creator-Preferred Adaptation	comment	Let's face it: Most of the time, a work is at its best in its original form. However, sometimes there are exceptions to this, and be it by Adaptation Distillation, Adaptation Expansion, Woolseyism, or Superlative Dubbing, the new version of a story comes out so much better than the old that even the original creator admits the superiority of the new one. Compare Approval of God, which refers to fan-works that the creator has a positive opinion on, even if they don't Ascend into canon. Contrast Disowned Adaptation. See also Superlative Dubbing.

Creator-Preferred Adaptation / int_135eccc4	comment	He also prefers the happier ending of the film adaptation of Cujo to the grimmer ending of the book, which he views as something of an embarrassment in hindsight, having written it when he was at a very dark point in his life due to cocaine addiction (such that he can barely remember writing half of it).

In particular, he's a huge fan of Daryl, a character created for the show, to the point where he feels that bringing him into the comic would do a disservice to the show. He also feels that Shane and Carol's arcs were handled better on the show.

Jurgens has said that he prefers how Man of Steel handled its version of Superman killing General Zod, done as a heat-of-the-moment decision made to protect an innocent family Zod was actively threatening over the outright execution Byrne went for.

Creator-Preferred Adaptation / int_45827934	comment	The Incredible Melting Man was intended as a parody of horror movies by the director, but Executive Meddling intervened and saw to it that the film became pretty much the type of movie it was intended to spoof, much to the director's dismay. A couple decades later, Mystery Science Theater 3000 riffed on the movie and unintentionally restored the parody element, resulting in the director vocally approving of the MST3K episode (unlike several others). (It helped that the episode was filled with shots at Executive Meddling and Hollywood in general, as a means of therapy for Best Brains after the horrors they endured making Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie.)

He loved it so much that when he wrote a sequel to the film, he retconned the first story as a dream. It was also a matter of practical marketing, since the movie was so much more popular than the book, he figured people who got the later books would expect something more like the movie.
