lurkerwithoutThanks a lot morchades. Like I wasn't already feeling annoyed by people being stupid...
News on The Dark is Rising movie:
"...dedicated to a Godly transformation and revolution TO and THROUGH the Film and Television industry. TO it, by serving, living humbly with integrity in what is often a world driven by selfish ambition, power and money – transforming lives from within, and THROUGH it, by creating relevant and evocative content which promotes Godly principles of Truth married with Love." is a quote attributed to the director, David L. Cunningham, who also directed The Path to 9/11 mini-series on ABC...
"...screenwriter John Hodge told me they dropped all the Arthurian stuff from the film."
Why even fucking BOTHER adapting the series? There are other YA fantasy books that don't have the attached Arthurian mythos. And likely even some with a more Xian underpinning to them (beyond C.S. Lewis)...

(You do remember hearing about The Path To 9/11, right? It's the one that "fictionalises" everything that came before, blaming *everything* on Clinton and claiming that her personally and deliberately let Osama bin Laden go, etc etc etc.)
