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.

Bravestarr: The Movie (1988)
An animated science fiction directed by Tom Tataranowicz.
A futuristic wild west lawman opposes an army of outlaws. Both sides of the conflict have a magical leader.
This cheesy 80s cartoon is pretty cool. The styling of the characters and settings was the best part with their names coming in a close second. Names like J.B. (female romantic interest destined for BJs) and Tex Hex (evil's second in command and a play on words with tex-mex). I also thought it was interesting that the shaman lived far away from town in what I would call a reservation and that there were no native American looking characters in town. Anyway, I thought it was cool and I'm rating it good. This is a series for anyone who grew up watching He-Man, Thundercats and Silverhawks. I'm including 3 pictures. 2 of them point out the "horse of undetermined size" and the other is of Stampede, the evil wizard.
