They've done such a good job of butchering the movie and then disguising it with a different title that several people have mentioned they didn't even realize what it was an adaptation of.
I'm one of those people. I've seen the ads for it on TV, and just thought, "Oh, yeah, another kids' fantasy adventure flick, lalalalala..."
Granted, I haven't read The Dark is Rising in years (and wasn't a big fan of it), but when I found out that The Seeker was an adaptation of it...All I could do was say, "WHAT!? No friggin' way!" I honestly didn't recognize the original source from what I saw in the ads.
"Old English" just slays me. SLAYS ME DED FROM HORRIFIED LULZ.
