You are the seventh son of the seventh son


Seriously, who thought it was a good idea to write that line of dialogue - and have Jeff deliver it in that voice no less?

From wiki: "The seventh son of a seventh son is a concept from folklore regarding special powers given to, or held by, such a son. The seventh son must come from an unbroken line with no female children born between, and be, in turn, born to such a seventh son."

Thanks?

That doesn't make the saying sound any less stupid when said aloud.

The true secrets have been lost in time by most but I'm revealing this now on IMDB as it was written that I must do.

The true power starts with the eighth son of an eighth son.

Higher power still with the ninth son of a ninth son.

Once you get to the 69th son of a 69th son, it's indescribable power.

Well, given the character *is* a seventh son and the movie is based off the myth, someone was going to say it at some point. Seems you're picking nits as we have no problem with names like "Captain America", "Dr Manhattan" and "Darth Sidious" being spoken aloud.
