after 16 years and a quartet of films, where else is there for Po to go? “4,” while nice enough, suggests that the smartest move would be to let the fuzzy guy retire to a calming bamboo forest rather than embark on yet another predictable adventure.The decent animated film still boasts the formidable voice talent of Black, Dustin Hoffman, Bryan Cranston, James Hong and Ian McShane. Now they’re joined by Awkwafina, Viola Davis and Ke Huy Quan. Not too shabby.This go-round, Po is reveling in his mini celeb status — swanning around town, posing for (hand-drawn) pictures with fans and cutting the ribbon at the Dragon Warrior Noodle and Tofu restaurant.

yikes! – DeGeneres, Kevin Spacey, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Bradley Cooper, Jared Leto, Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep and more today and you’ll witness something akin to a prehistoric fossil recovered from the La Brea Tar Pits.

Nicole Kidman’s second crack at starring in ads for the AMC movie chain — after her first AMC “heartbreak” ad campaign in 2021 went viral — was panned in the pop-culture zeitgeist after premiering March 1.Some fans vented their displeasure on X after the first new ad appeared — feeling let down after Kidman’s original ad was both beloved and lampooned when it first appeared in AMC theaters 2½ years ago.“So the new Nicole Kidman AMC ad is almost exactly the same.
