It varies. Some episodes might stick closely to the source, while others could have some differences.
There's no fixed count. The degree of closeness can change from episode to episode. Sometimes it's a near-perfect match, but at other times, there might be creative tweaks and additions to make it more engaging for the audience.
Well, it's hard to give an exact number. It depends on how you define 'closely follow'. Some parts of the show might be very faithful, but there could be variations in others for dramatic effect or to fit the TV format.
The Departed takes some liberties with the true story. It uses the real - life inspiration of the conflict between the police and the criminals in Boston as a starting point. However, in terms of following the actual events closely, it veers off. The movie is filled with Hollywood - style drama, like the intense cat - and - mouse chases and the extreme levels of double - crossing. These are exaggerated compared to what probably happened in the real - life events that inspired it, but they make for a great movie.
The Departed loosely follows the true story. It uses the real - life backdrop of organized crime and police infiltration in Boston. But when it comes to the individual characters' arcs and the way the story unfolds in terms of specific events, it has deviated a fair bit. It focuses more on creating a thrilling and engaging story rather than a strict retelling of the true events.
It's kind of close. The manga mostly adheres to the original, but there are a few differences here and there.
Scream is more about creating a horror - filled narrative rather than sticking to a true story. While it might draw on real - life ideas like the fear of being stalked or the mystery behind a killer's identity, it builds its own fictional world. For example, the characters and their relationships in the movie are completely made up, and the plot twists are designed to shock the audience in a way that is more typical of horror movies than real - life crime investigations.
The movie/book series doesn't follow the true story in a very literal sense. It uses the idea of a town with a troubled history from the true story. However, in order to make it a more engaging horror story, it changes a great deal. The true story might have been more mundane in some ways, like just a series of unexplained deaths over time. But 'Fear Street' amps it up with complex characters, a more elaborate backstory, and a web of horror that goes far beyond what was probably the reality of the original events it was inspired by.
It depends. Sometimes it's very close, but there can be some changes to make it more appealing for a wider audience.
It's quite close. The Eva manga mostly adheres to the main elements of the original, but there are some minor differences.
Overall, the comic of 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas' remains faithful to the source. It might have some minor artistic liberties for visual appeal, but the core story is intact. The characters and their actions are mostly consistent.
It's hard to say exactly how closely. There are likely elements that are very true to real events, but also a lot of fictionalized parts for entertainment. Maybe 30 - 40% is based on real things like the general setting of war and some soldier experiences.
Pretty closely. The movie gets the basic elements of the true story right. The Navy's flight training program is accurately portrayed with its rigorous drills and emphasis on excellence. The real - life environment of naval aviation, like the aircraft carriers and the need for quick takeoffs and landings, is well - represented. But, as with any movie based on a true story, there are some dramatizations. For instance, the personal relationships between the characters might be exaggerated a bit for the story's flow, but overall, it stays true to the spirit of the real - life situation.
