Moby Dick... With A Dragon!

"Age of the Dragons is an adaptation of Herman Melville's classic novel Moby Dick. Set in a medieval realm where Captain Ahab and crew hunt dragons for the vitriol that powers their world, Ishmael, a charismatic harpooner joins their quest. Ahab's adopted daughter Rachel, beautiful and tough, runs the hunting vessel.

"Ahab's obsession is to seek revenge on a great "White Dragon" that slaughtered his family when he was young and left his body scarred and mauled, drives the crew deeper into the heart of darkness. In the White Dragon's lair Ahab's secrets are revealed and Rachel must choose between following him on his dark quest or escaping to a new life with Ishmael."

Age of The Dragons has Danny Glover staring as Ahab in this wonderfully imaginative reworking of Moby Dick (complete with all the original character names), with the great white whale recast as a dragon.

Sadly release details, at present, are vague-to-non-existent; so I rather suspect that this Dungeons & Dragons-inspiring wonderment will go direct to DVD (which isn't necessarily a bad thing, of course!).
