The legendary Clades are a family of explorers whose differences threaten to topple their latest and most crucial mission.
The preface has a beautiful animated style, features a heart-raising expedition with real peril and introduces the main character's future confliction and motivation. Once the main story starts, it presents a wonderful world and contemporary characters.
After they descend into the “Strange World” the movie comes alive. The characters and sets are wonderful. The land is alien with an odd-pink hue and the animals are exotic but strangely familiar. This world nods to the movie's conclusion and makes more sense when it's revealed – it's a lovely analogy.
There is an overtly unsubtle climate change metaphor running through the movie, but this isn't a bad thing and the conflicts of personal expectations come full circle by the end. Overall this is a lovely adventure movie which has real stakes throughout, great action sequences and intimate moments.

I have a misplaced belief that somehow these plastic boxes represent me in some way, and hold snapshots of my past self. I have misty-eyed visions of, decades from now, happening upon a film or album in its case that I loved when I was 21 and sharing that joy with my children.

“RSS is dead” every year; it will be dead in the next year again. But before the dead coming in next year, we can do something to make it dead in an elegant way. RSS feed is meant to be used by machine (apps) not by human. But people may visit a feed link directly and shout out WTF is this.

Small and independent blogs are always full of surprises. The more blogs I stumble upon, the more genuinely surprised I am by the things people do with their blogs. I hope it might inspire non-bloggers to blog and bloggers to tinker more with their site—because obviously the tinkering never ends!

Cycled for 2 hours 28 minutes on 28th January 2023.
A full lap of Follow the Dog, interspersed with Perry's Trail and an off-piste section. Then over to Chad’s Ditch on Badgers Hill with the temperature dropping.
