The Wild Robot is a terrific movie. Beautiful story, and is one of the most impressive-looking animated movies I think I have ever seen. Wow!

Not entirely sure how we got to this place in chem bio / molecular bio where it's like "if the figure in your paper doesn't go to at least panel 'h' then did you even do anything?" It's not helpful and we're hurting our own field. Those who do peer review can push back on this.
