Susan Cooper's Over Sea Under Stone Sequence?

If so

SQUEES like a little girl. It's a fantastic series.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it's going to resemble the book in any way. Will is American now. O_O

I was so excited, then I went to seekthesign.com, and now I fear it.
They've 'updated' the characters, moved it to America, I think, and made Maggie a girl in Will's school, instead of working at the farm. Plus, it looks like they 'superpowered' Will up.
Hope I'm wrong, and it's just a cheesey trailer.

*sobs*

Ah, but it's a "The Dark is Rising" movie that is more like a distant, very perverted cousin of the book, unfortunately. -sighs- They had to 'modernise' it.

Why Why Why?

The book has a timeless quality.
