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.

Cool Runnings (1993)
A comedy directed by John Turteltaub, starring John Candy and Doug E. Doug, produced by the Disney corporation.
A Jamaican sprinter sprinter loses the qualifying event for the Olympics because a man falls in front of him. He finds out that his father was asked to be a bobsledder by a white man in Jamaica and he seeks out this man. Together with his best friend (a pushcart racer) and the other men who fell in the sprinting event, they start the first Jamaican bobsled team.
Despite this being produced by the evil, freemasonic Disney corporation, I actually liked watching it for the entertainment value. Doug E. Doug from the Cosby show may have had something to do with this, as any man who can be funny WITH Bill Cosby is a great comedian. The plot and characters are good, but everyone knows that these guys should have won the event to make a REALLY happy ending. Disney is the cause of this, as to them, black guys being "treated as equals" is the black version of victory. We are all cosmic consciousness having an experience. It doesn't matter what color the container of this consciousness is. These guys shouldn't be considered Rastafari by the longest stretch of the word, as they are never depicted smoking cannabis out of a wooden bong. I'm rating this adequate, but it would have gotten a better rating if it wasn't Disney and they met my Rastafari requirements.
