Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors
The next expansion for Pokémon TCG Pocket is almost upon us, with dozens of new cards set to hit the game later this week, including a whole host of Johto-themed cards, as well as the first Baby Pokémon in the game.
New sets typically come in two sizes, full expansions with two or more booster packs, and limited themed boosters, which only have one booster pack and are about half the size of a full expansion. Wisdom of Sea and Sky, the new expansion, will be the former, as it's a full expansion – likely marked A5 – with two booster sets based on Ho-Oh and Lugia.

Shelter Dog Pulls Fire Alarm in Fit of Excitement—Forces Staff to Evacuate
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Marvel, a shelter dog on his way out for a walk, couldn't contain his excitement and accidently pulled the fire alarm that led to an evacuation of the building. A volunteer from the Atlanta Humane Society came to walk a few of the dogs at the animal shelter, giving them a break from the loud environment, a chance to stretch their legs and release their energy. However, the plan backfired when Marvel, a terrier mix, took his excitement for the walk to the next level. The security camera at the shelter captured Marvel jumping for joy as the volunteer started to walk toward the door, a common behavior for this dog. "The volunteer says he always gets very jumpy and excited to go outside and play in the yards," a representative from the Atlanta Humane Society told Newsweek via Instagram. Unable to control his emotions, the dog started bouncing off the walls and wagging his tail. He just so happened to hit his paws on the fire alarm, pulling the handle down. The shelter's July 24 Instagram video, under the account @atlantahumane, showed Marvel's reaction once he realized the consequences of his actions. The fire alarm blared throughout the building. He paused, looked around without a clue that he had caused the alarm to go off. "The entire staff did evacuate because it took a bit for word to circulate on why the alarm was going off," the representative told Newsweek. Thankfully, it was all a misunderstanding. The shelter jokes that Marvel did it on purpose to get a future adopter's attention. Marvel still awaits his forever home. This nearly 2-year-old dog is full of energy and loves to play in water. He's ready for an adventure at any moment, which the shelter believes he'll fit best with an active family. But he also has a sweet side, offering affection at any chance he can. Marvel qualifies as a Foster First, a program that allows people to foster him for 14 days before adopting to ensure he is the perfect fit. Screenshots from a July 24 Instagram video of a shelter dog accidentally setting off the fire alarm when being taken out for a walk by a volunteer.

One user wrote: "What a good helper, making sure y'all are doing your regular fire drills." Another added: "What a good boy. He wants to make sure everyone is fire prepared." A third commented: "He is SO PROUD of himself!" Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures of your pet you want to share?

Dog on Campsite Sees Opportunity—Gets 'One Bite In' Before Air Jail
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A dog's intuition about a round object being near his campsite landed him in "air jail" as he took off and intruded on the neighbor's space. An English bulldog named Jerry has an obsession with round objects—tennis balls, basketballs, and so on. The dog's owner, who didn't share their details, told Newsweek via Instagram that Jerry loves anything soccer ball-sized or bigger. "He's tried to get at a watermelon a handful of times, like when we've brought one home from the store," the owner said. "He was super-intrigued, thinking it was a ball or a toy for him." The obsession doesn't stop when Jerry goes on vacation; in fact, his "sixth sense" for these round objects is always on. A recent video posted to Jerry's Instagram account, @jerrywasabulldog, shows that Jerry took his opportunity to go after a round object at a neighboring campsite in Long Beach, Washington. His eyes spots a watermelon, and the dog takes off running before his owners can stop him. Jerry manages to sneak in one bite before his owner scoops him up and places him in "air jail," carrying him back to his campsite. All four paws point to the sky. Defeated about being caught so quickly, Jerry's head hangs to the side. From left: Jerry the English bulldog gets put in "air jail" at a neighboring campsite. From left: Jerry the English bulldog gets put in "air jail" at a neighboring campsite. @jerrywasabulldog/Instagram Within five days of posting, the Instagram clip has amassed over 3.5 million views and left viewers cracking up at Jerry's unbothered reaction as if this wasn't the first time he landed in air jail. "'Zero 'effs given—will do again' it's written all over his face," one viewer said. "You miss 100% of the watermelons you don't chase," another posted. A third wrote: "no offense but Jerry is a round object himself." And after several comments demanded Jerry's owner get him a watermelon of his own, they obliged. A follow-up video shows the dog enjoying the first-ever watermelon that he gets to "play with." In the clip, Jerry sprints toward the round fruit. He uses his snoot to push the watermelon around the grass. Then his paws and teeth finally dig in, enjoying parts of the juicy fruit. While watermelon is safe for dogs to eat, the American Kennel Club says that the seeds inside could cause intestinal blockage, and the rind might lead to gastrointestinal upset. Otherwise, the low-calorie fruit—about 50 calories per cup—is packed with vitamins A, B6 and C, and potassium. Watermelon is an excellent source of hydration on a hot day and has no fat or cholesterol. Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures of your pet you want to share?

How a Dolly Parton duet became the 'unhinged' heart of 'Oh, Hi!'
NEW YORK − As Sophie Brooks was trying to get funding for her new movie 'Oh, Hi!,' she made a playlist to give potential producers the film's vibe. That playlist was emblazoned with a picture of Kathy Bates holding a knife in Stephen King's 1990 thriller 'Misery,' about a murderous ex-nurse named Annie Wilkes who holds her favorite author (James Caan) hostage. That image was apropos for the twisted rom-com 'Oh, Hi!' (in theaters now), which follows a young woman named Iris (Molly Gordon) who handcuffs her new beau, Isaac (Logan Lerman), to the bed during a remote romantic getaway after he says they're not exclusive. Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox To be clear, Annie and Iris are 'very different degrees of crazy,' Brooks says in a recent sitdown with her longtime friend Gordon, who co-conceived the story. Rather, this movie is 'a little wish fulfillment. If a girl could lean into her most unhinged, intrusive thoughts, would you end up tying a man to a bed to convince him to love you?' Gordon rewatched 'Misery' before 'Oh, Hi!" premiered at Sundance Film Festival in January, and was reminded that there are nearly no movies 'where women get to be that bold and free and funny,' she says. 'It sucks that there still aren't that many of those types of roles for women, but Sophie wanted to give me the space to get to be wild.' Molly Gordon, Sophie Brooks break down the 'Oh, Hi!' soundtrack One of the unexpected pleasures of 'Oh, Hi!' is its eclectic soundtrack, which features memorable needle drops from Clairo, Julia Jacklin and Marie Owens. Blake Mills' woozy 'Breakthrough Moon' underscores an early bondage sequence, as Iris handcuffs Isaac to the bed for a night of passion. ('It's hard to find a song for a sex scene that's the perfect level of sexiness without being too over the top,' Gordon says.) And then there's Molly Burch's lilting 'Made of Glass,' which perfectly captures Iris' state of mind with lyrics about looking for something special and no longer wanting to waste time in unfulfilling relationships. ('Her music really speaks to the modern-day female experience,' Brooks says.) For millennials, a nostalgic highlight is sure to be Mario's 2004 R&B hit 'Let Me Love You.' Iris dances to the song while Isaac is chained to the bedposts, in a desperately misguided attempt to win him over. On the set, 'it was actually choreographed to a different song, but it wasn't as funny as it could be,' Brooks recalls. 'Let Me Love You' was added 'really late in the game, right before Sundance. Our music supervisor, Jillian Ennis, suggested it. As soon as we put it in, we were like, 'OK, thank God, this is working.' It was so organic and really fun.' How Dolly Parton's 'Islands in the Stream' became a 'siren song' The most recognizable song is undoubtedly 'Islands in the Stream,' the smooth 1983 duet between Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers. Iris and Isaac harmonize on the dulcet chart-topper as they drive through upstate New York at the start of the film. Initially, 'we considered a Lana Del Rey song, but we really loved the idea of it being a duet,' Brooks says. 'Also, Dolly Parton is such an incredible feminist icon, and really plays with femininity and desire and ambition in a way that I really relate to. It just felt right.' Gordon notes that it's a song that couples often will sing at karaoke together: 'We wanted to kind of make fun of the annoyance of new love, like, we're going to sing 'Islands in the Stream' together!' she says with a laugh. 'But also, how exciting it is when you have someone to do that with.' The song reappears later in the movie during a dream sequence, as Isaac imagines walking outside his mountaintop prison and finding Iris crooning it to him. 'It becomes this almost haunting thing for him and turns into this siren song,' Gordon says. That moment was always in the script from the get-go: 'That's just what happens when you work with your best friend. Sophie was like, 'I want you to be able to show all the parts of yourself that you haven't gotten to as an artist. You're going to dance silly because you're an insane person, and then you're going to sing, too.'' Gordon was admittedly anxious about covering such an iconic tune, which she recorded at the legendary Sound City Studios in Los Angeles. 'I had been naughty,' Gordon says. 'I had just done a movie in England and was smoking cigarettes stupidly, and I feel like I had this rasp. I was scared because I didn't have a voice that day, but I think it actually makes the song have a cooler vibe because I have a very annoying voice a lot of the time. And we only had an hour to record, so it was like, I don't have time to be nervous!' Ultimately, 'it was very pinch-me.'
