"Assuming the base story is solid, with a clear protagonist and clear antagonist, it's easier to adapt mediocre source material, because you get more flexibility...Conversely, great source material tends to be tightly coupled to its medium (there are exceptions, of course)." This has been said many times, and I generally agree, but of course there are exceptions -- like MY FAIR LADY.
