Naturally, thebiggest differences betweenMickey 17andMickey7will lead to many saying the novel is better.
Changing Niflheims backstory also strengthens Marshalls motivations in a way that makes him a better foil to Mickey Barnes.
By focusing on Niflheim alone, the movie distracts less attention away fromMickey 17s themes about identity.
One of the colonies Mickey researches in the novel is New Hope, the birth planet of Nashas parents.
InMickey7, however, Ashton includes multiple religious characters and provides a fair amount of background on their faith.
While this is a hilarious reveal, it also casts the books religious characters in an intentionally negative light.
However,the way Mickey runs afoul of Darius differs wildly between stories.
This version of Darius murders and dismembers those who owe him money, which raises the stakes significantly.
