![]() There’s a comment she makes about having seen a genocide firsthand, and so we can infer that Millner believes the Network is an anti-fascist organization, that its genocide will be egalitarian. Later, when he shows off a basic design for the Janus virus, she emphasizes that it must kill at random, that no one race or group of people be intentionally kept safe. Miller, already with the Network, sees a kindred spirit in Carvel. When Millner and Carvel meet at a Bilderberger style gathering of leaders and minds, the scientist is debating the usefulness of malaria as a means to regulate the human population. Carvel then decapitates the rabbit in front of Petrie with a butcher knife which leads to Petrie mimicking this when his mother brings a pet bunny into the home. At one point, he presents Petrie with a rabbit, after feeding the youth drug-laced chocolate covered raisins. He claims to be trying to reverse it later when discovered, but nothing we’ve seen leads us to believe that claim is valid. What she doesn’t know is that Carvel is experimenting with the biochemical nature of violence and has accidentally turned his son into this thing. His wife is worried about their son, Petrie who is showing sociopathic signs even as a toddler. Rabbit branding.Ĭarvel is already crossing dark ethical lines even before he meets Millner. Millner (played by Rose Leslie) has her motivations explained, and we even get The Assistant complete with the first reveal of his Mr. We get to see young Arby/Petrie and Jessica. This is because the entire episode is set in the 1970s and follows Philip Carvel and his involvement with the Network. The first thing you notice is the drastically different 4:3 aspect ratio to resemble old tube televisions. So, as we look back at Series 2, we do so with the notion that a different yet hopefully will be tonally similar show will be coming in the new future.ĭennis Kelly decided to open Utopia Series 2 with a jolt. She became friends with Dennis Kelly and said she’ll seek his input on the new version of Utopia, release date to be determined but like sometime in 2019. Flynn has been very public in expressing her love of the original, particularly for its strangeness. However, in April 2017 it was announced that Amazon was going to work to develop Utopia with Gillian Flynn as showrunner. ![]() For some years David Fincher and Gillian Flynn have been working to bring Utopia to the United States but a deal with HBO fell through, and it appeared the prospects of a return were dead. In the time since my review of Series 1, big Utopia news has dropped. When we last left the world of Utopia, we were merely looking backward at a short-lived British television that deserves a second glance by viewers.

Both the skeleton in the background and the foreground are blurrier in this photo than they are in the first Halloween scene. I think the Tensor's faster night shot processing paid off here, as the iPhone 14 photo is a lot blurrier than the Pixel 7's shot. The Pixel 7 fares slightly better, as you can tell I'm wearing a green shirt and hat in that photo those colors are a bit darker in the iPhone 14's effort. And the results were a bit scary, with cameras unable to keep my face out of the shadows. I wanted to see how the cameras fared when a person enters the low-light frame, so I added a more horrifying detail to the Halloween tableau - me. iPhone 14 cameras: Outdoor, night with person ![]() Winner: Google Pixel 7 Google Pixel 7 vs. It's a more natural-looking shot than what the iPhone 14 produces, where the ambient lighting feels a little unnatural. While the iPhone 14 photo is certainly brighter, the Pixel 7 does a better job maintaining the shadows while also keeping the Halloween decorations in sharp detail. One again, the shots are evenly matched and come down to personal preference. That wasn't a problem in this instnce, but it should give Google's phone an edge in taking low-light images. When I took a photo of this Halloween scene, the Pixel 7 was a second faster than the iPhone 14, which, in theory, should make the Pixel photo less prone to include any blurs. One of the changes Google touts is faster processing of Night Sight images, so you don't have to hold your phone steady for as long while the photo software brightens up the shot. When the lights go out, we get to see what impact the Pixel 7's Tensor chip has on photos. It's a close call, but I still think the iPhone 14 shot looks slightly more shareable. I think that warmth extends to the food itself, making the dish look a lot more homey in the iPhone 14 image, though I appreciate that the Pixel 7 also kept details like the flecks of parsley and the chunk of tomato in sharp contrast. The glare seems a little more subdued in the iPhone 14 photo, thanks to the warmer color cast in Apple's effort. A bowl of chicken cacciatore over some leftover farfalle looks appetizing in both photos, despite some sunlight streaming in from a window on the right adding glare to both shots. The temperature contrast continues even when we move inside. The green plants around the statue are brighter, too, so I think this is an instance where the Photonic Engine did its job. Check out that flower in front of the bear - it's dull enough in the Pixel shot to almost blend in with the statue. The Pixel 7 image looks fine, but cool, and that has the effect of muting some of the colors. We see the same thing in this wood carving of a bear, which I took roughly at the same time as the geranium photo. The Photonic Engine looks to enhance photos taken in mid- to low light - I captured this shot in the evening, while the sun was still out but setting - and it may have gotten over-aggressive hyping up the green in this case. I think that's the doing of the Photonic Engine, a computational photography feature that Apple added to the iPhone 14 lineup. If you want to find fault with the iPhone 14's shot, you could point those green leaves, which look a little oversaturated. The Pixel 7 shot is too cool for my tastes, and I think the blue-ish doesn't accurately showcase the colors on the flower petals. In this close-up of some geraniums shot with the main camera on each device, I happen to prefer the iPhone 14's warmer, brighter approach. iPhone 14 photos will come down to which color cast you prefer. ![]() iPhone 14 cameras: Outdoor, flowersĪ lot of Google Pixel 7 vs. The big story with the iPhone 14's front camera is the addition of autofocus, plus a wider aperture to let in more light. The iPhone 14 still relies on a 12MP sensor, though you can zoom in for a 7MP crop. The Pixel 7 uses a 10.8MP sensor with a wider area of view than before at 92.8 degrees. The iPhone 14's main camera also has a wider aperture than before at f/1.5, while the 12MP ultrawide shooter offers an f/2.4 aperture.Īs noted above, both phones feature revamped front cameras. The iPhone 14's main camera sensor doesn't pack in as many megapixels - it's rated for 12MP - but Apple did increase the size from the sensor on the iPhone 13. The 12MP ultrawide lens has an f/2.2 aperture. In the case of the Pixel 7, that main camera is a 50MP sensor with an aperture of f/1.85. While you won't get a telephoto lens with either phone, you will get a dual rear-camera setup, with both the Pixel and the iPhone offering wide and ultrawide angle lenses. 50MP, 1.2 μm pixel width, f/1.85 aperture |
