Pet owners spend an inordinate amount of time imagining, ascribing, even acting out the behaviors of their animals. “Strays” feels like the natural — if comically exaggerated — extension of that impulse, chronicling the personality of a border terrier named Reggie as he and three canine pals make an arduous trek back to Reggie’s owner, along with all of the attendant misunderstandings and misinterpretations about the human world around them.
Produced by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, written by “American Vandal” co-creator Dan Perrault and directed by “Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar” director Josh Greenbaum, “Strays” balances human expectations and lost-in-translation animal experiences for a smart, suitably raunchy adventure that should resonate even if you don’t have a furry friend waiting at home for you afterward.

Madrid, March 5 (Ians) Atletico Madrid thrashed Sevilla 6-1 to move into third place in La Liga above Real Sociedad on Saturday night.
The game saw Diego Simeone overtake Luis Aragones as the coach who has sat in the Atletico dugout for most matches in the club’s history and the players gave the Argentinean an appropriate homage in his 613th match.
Memphis Depay scored twice in the 23rd and 26th minute to put Atletico 2-0 up, before Youssef En-Nesyri gave Sevilla hope in the 39th minute, a Xinhua report said.
Those hopes were quickly banished as Antoine Griezmann netted Atletico’s third in the 53rd minute, before Yannick Carrasco added a fourth in the 69th minute.
Substitute Alvaro Morata then rounded off the route with goals in the 76th and 92nd minute to once again leave Sevilla deep in a battle against relegation.

New Delhi, March 1 (Ians) Diego Simeone has broken yet another record, over a decade on from taking charge in the Atletico de Madrid dugout.
According to information received here, following the 1-1 Madrid Derby draw at the Santiago Bernabeu, El Cholo has now coached Atleti in 425 Laliga Santander matches- an all-time record in the competition’s history for matches coached for a single club – taking him past the previous record-holder Miguel Munoz’s tally of 424.
Since returning to the club, he so famously represented during his playing days as coach in December 2011, he has led Los Rojiblancos to two Laliga Santander titles, as well as a Copa del Rey (2013), two UEFA Europa Leagues and two UEFA Super Cups.
Simeone takes over the record from Miguel Munoz, the man who coached Real Madrid between 1960 and 1974 to nine Laliga Santander titles and two European Cups and who held the record for 49 years...

New Delhi, Feb 28 (Ians) Matchday 23 of the 2022/23 Laliga Santander season threw up a host of fascinating storylines, with several of the clubs near the top of the standings dropping points against those threatened by relegation.
Here’s a quick round-up:
Real Madrid have a new hero in Alvaro Rodriguez
There is fresh excitement at Real Madrid, who have a new hero to celebrate in the form of 18-year-old striker Alvaro Rodríguez. The academy graduate came off the bench in Los Blancos’ Madrid Derby on Saturday and headed in the equalising goal against Atleti to earn his side a 1-1 draw. That was his first goal for the senior team and proves he is one to watch, with Carlo Ancelotti already confirming he’ll have more game time this season.
Barca also fall at the Power Horse Stadium

An airheaded anchorman, a perpetually upbeat elf, an evil Lego minifigure — Will Ferrell has found a variety of colorful outlets for his comedy over the years. Ever since he first graced the stage of "Saturday Night Live's" iconic studio 8H back in 1995, Ferrell's distinctly fluid, improv-heavy, and hilariously infectious brand of humor has helped him successfully make the jump from small-screen funnyman to one of the biggest and most bankable movie stars working today.
It's a bit more than that, though. Ferrell's comedic talents have attracted some unlikely comrades over the years — people like John C. Reilly and Mark Wahlberg — and in turn, they have helped create a new comedy sub-genre that's unafraid to keep things fast and loose when it comes to off-script gags and adlibs. With riskier, more thoughtful entries scattered through his résumé, he's not one to rest on his laurels either.
All this, we know.

Beware – this piece contains spoilers
The third episode of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is titled “Adar”, and you probably shouldn’t read this piece until you’ve seen it. There are some major revelations about where this story’s heading in this episode, so spoilers beware. There is one thing we don’t learn: just who on Middle-earth this “Adar” is. That name isn’t mentioned until the very last moment, when poor old Arondir (Ismael Cruz Córdova) is dragged back into the pit where he’s been enslaved by Orcs.
As he bounces off pitifully, he hears them cry out: “Bring him to Adar!” Who could this monster of depravity be? As we’ll see, the true identity of Adar is just one of the intriguing mysteries thrown up by this latest instalment of Amazon’s Jrr Tolkien-inspired fantasy epic. Here are the...
