Query: deflated...disney sucked the core right out of it

Lloyd Alexander, the author of the actual series that this movie was based on, is probably turning over in his grave because of this. He created his books for children and young adults with care and skill, making it funny, tragic, and even romantic to some extent... all the components that are found in real life, even though it was a fantasy. And to risk sounding like a fanatical hippie, the message it portrayed was deep. I suppose I should be used to disney productions screwing things up by now, but I was appalled at how they took such a wonderful story and boiled it down to such and airhead concepted "adventure."
