So I don't think any of you were planning on seeing the film version of The Dark is Rising, but if you were, could I ask you to stay away? Or at least don't go see it opening weekend? This is one of my treasured childhood icons that's being trashed here...

Also, in case my plea doesn't move you, I read a bunch of reviews and no one likes it anyway, plus which I understand that it is now very much like Harry Potter, so you could just rent the latest Harry Potter movie instead.
