In ancient Egyptian mythology, a dead person's soul would be weighed against the feather of truth in a ritual called a psychostasy. If their soul was lighter than the feather, it would ascend into the afterlife. Heavy souls were devoured by Maat, eater of the dead. Good films go to hard drive heaven while the recycle bin eats the rest.

Age of the Dragons (2011)
A fantasy directed by Ryan Little, starring Danny Glover.
A harpooner and his friend join a team of people hunting dragons.
This is Moby Dick on land, with dragons. In the beginning, they act like they're getting on a boat, but it's a primitive APC with wooden wheels. One of the fight scenes between 2 of the men has like 20-30 shots in it, which is horrible. That's the kind of camera-work that I call Hollywood bullshit. The dragons would have been cool if they had made more appearances in the film. This isn't the '80s and bad films aren't good anymore. I'm rating this bad.
