Magpie:
Iirc (even trying to forget it!) his parents are just emotionally 
distant (and are now both college professors) while his brothers bully 
him. And he has a little sister. So much for Will being the youngest of 
9 and the 7th son of a 7th son. And each of those brothers sounds like 
a different Hollywood cliche.

Of course he'll use his magical powers to get back at them--even though 
that's totally against his entire nature as an Old One. Oh, and I think 
the Walker is now young and attractive and falls in love with Maggie. 
There's also a scene at a mall. Um, yeah. A mall.
