Well, let's take an example like The Shining or Starship Troopers. Both films don't follow their source material at all, but we give them a pass because what they did was interesting/good. You can hijack an IP and make something everlasting out of it. The problem here is that these hack writers don't have anything interesting to say. The writers for the Halo, Witcher, and Velma show could have done anything but they defaulted to the most fucking generic, uninteresting plots that any AI could spit out without emotions.

I'd argue that both of those are good movie adaptations.  You can't follow 100% of the source material while changing media.  Just like the witcher games did not really follow the books 100%.
