The concept of a multiverse arises from a couple of scientific theories, writes National Geographic’s Nadia Drake. Scientists today actually grapple with the idea that more universes than the one we live in may exist.
(Though, Everything Everywhere All At Once is the only one with a parallel universe in which people have hot dog-like fingers, or where people’s consciousnesses are trapped inside rocks with googly eyes.)Įvelyn’s escapades are fantastical and fictional, of course, but the multiverse might not be. The Best Picture winner isn’t alone in imagining the concept of a multiverse for the silver screen-parallel universes have also been a central plot point in recent Marvel movies and television shows. In it, Evelyn learns early on that-to prevent a multiversal apocalypse-she must connect with different versions of herself from parallel dimensions. It’s a grounded premise, but the film is actually one of the wildest of the year.

The movie stars Michelle Yeoh as Evelyn Wang, a laundromat owner trying to pay her taxes. In the end, Fantastical 2 delivers a superb app to those users who don't enjoy using the iOS 7 calendar app, or those who are looking for a better solution to managing hectic schedules than what Apple provides.The science fiction film Everything Everywhere All At Once dominated Sunday night’s Academy Awards with seven victories, including the coveted Best Picture. The ease of use when adding and editing events, along with the ability to view exactly where an event is and get directions to it are all features Apple should look into integrating into its own app. It makes managing your calendar and reminders easy, and it looks good while doing it. I wasn't convinced it would provide enough of a benefit over the Apple calendar app to justify spending a few dollars. I held out on buying Fantastical 2 due to the price. Having the app calculate travel time, including any traffic or construction encountered, would make having the location plotted within the app infinitely more useful. Setting predefined alert times to remind you of an appointment is available, but what I would like to see is a custom alert time based on your current location and the location of the meeting. In my testing of Fantastical 2, I never had to go back in and edit the location I'd entered. The calendar on OS X Mavericks does map out the location (when it can actually find the venue) and even figures drive time, but that doesn't cross over to iOS. Sure, Apple allows you to enter the location of an event, but it doesn't currently do anything with that information. This, again, is a big feature and advantage Fantastical 2 has over the default Apple Calendar app. Here you'll find the basic information you'd expect from any calendar app, but you'll also find a map with the location of the meeting or event, with the ability to launch directly into navigation via Apple Maps or Google Maps (customizable in the app settings).
Tapping on an event in your calendar will open up the details screen. But being able to quickly add an event to your calendar, with the ability to go back and edit it later on, is valuable and extremely useful. Of course if you want to take a more granular approach to editing an entry, you'll still have that option. The same can be done when adding a reminder within Fantastical 2 by flipping a switch on the entry screen. For example, typing in "Dinner with friends 6 on Friday at The Diner" will create an event titled "Dinner with Friends" at 6 PM on the next Friday, with a mapped out location for The Diner. You can type in the event name, date, location and time on the addition screen, and the app will do the hard work for you. You don't have to pick and peck your way through menus and date pickers. Adding an event to Fantastical 2 is extremely simple.
