Hi all Last week's total for F&F7 was wrong, but as of last weekend it was sitting at 68.7 Million, which is still a record. Well Mad Max is back, bigger than ever in 2D, 3D and 3D IMAX ... overseas reviews are excellent (and one comment has already labelled it the Best Movie of 2015), so enjoy. Also up is the crowd-friendly sequel to Pitch Perfect. On the previews side, there are some previews next Thursday night for the Afrikaans drama Treurgrond, which may turn out to be controversial, given the subject matter (farm murders)(and may also explain why Steve has been saying the things he has lately). See the Previews page and remember to book. We have not received last week's Cinema Nouveau top ten yet.

Philip Hansen is facing 11 charges, including assault and s*x charges, some of which involved using pliers to pull out teeth, from three separate victims. Hansen has pleaded not guilty to the charges, which span over a period of more than 20 years, and are said to have occurred at various locations in the Hutt Valley area in Wellington, New Zealand. Today, a police video, was played to the jury of nine men and three women In the video, a woman, whose identity has been suppressed, explained how she took a drive with Hansen one evening. She said they parked up, and moved to the back seat of the car, to have sex. She alleges Hansen then pulled out a pair of pliers, and an oily rag. She alleged that while holding her against the door, Hansen then removed six of her bottom teeth with a pair of pliers, and threw them outside the car window. He used the oily rag to stop the bleeding, she said. The woman said although she had been drinking, she did not consider herself to be heavily intoxicated. "After that sixth tooth came out, I got him to stop ... I was getting sore, and I didn't want him to go any further. She said she later had her remaining teeth removed at a dentist, at Hansen's request. Once her teeth were removed, and dentures were fitted, she said her wisdom teeth started to come through. She alleged Hansen removed her wisdom teeth with a screwdriver. "He had a screwdriver in his hand, he then tilted my head back ... after that he had grabbed the screwdriver, and started digging at the back of my gums, to try and get out these wisdom teeth." She said he gave her a glass of whiskey to dull the pain. The woman also alleged that Hansen would destroy her dentures, by snapping them, or flushing them down the toilet, and blaming the cat. The woman said while this was going on, she was too afraid to say anything. Earlier this morning, in her opening address, Crown prosecutor Sally Carter said throughout the trial the jury would hear evidence about Hansen's bizarre fascination, and obsession, with women's teeth. He liked his women without teeth. Ms Carter told the jury, that Hansen liked his women to be gummy ladies. The trial before Judge Bruce Davidson continues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- A young couple recently got married and went on their honeymoon. When they got back, the bride immediately called her mother. 'Well,' said her mother, 'so how was the honeymoon?' 'Oh, Mum' she replied, 'the honeymoon was wonderful! So romantic!' Suddenly she burst out crying. 'But, mum as soon as we returned, Sam started using the most horrible language -- things I'd never heard before! I mean all these awful 4-letter words! You've got to take me home . PLEASE MUM!' 'Sarah, Sarah,' her mother said, 'calm down!' You need to stay with your husband and work this out. Now, tell me, what could be so awful? WHAT 4-letter words?' 'Please don't make me tell you, mum' wept the daughter, 'I'm so embarrassed, they're just too awful! COME GET ME, PLEASE!!' 'Darling, you must tell me what has you so upset. Tell your mother these horrible 4-letter words!' Sobbing, the bride said, 'Oh, Mum . . he used words like: Dust, Wash, Iron, and Cook ...' 'I'll pick you up in twenty minutes,' said the mother...... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the days before email .... Two sisters, one blonde and one brunette, inherit the family ranch. Unfortunately, after just a few years, they are in financial trouble. In order to keep the bank from repossessing the ranch, they need to purchase a bull so that they can breed their own stock. Upon leaving, the brunette tells her sister, "When I get there, if I decide to buy the bull, I'll contact you to drive out after me and haul it home." The brunette arrives at the man's ranch, inspects the bull, and decides she wants to buy it. The man tells her that he will sell it for $599, no less. After paying him, she drives to the nearest town to send her sister a telegram to tell her the news. She walks into the telegraph office, and says, "I want to send a telegram to my sister telling her that I've bought a bull for our ranch. I need her to hitch the trailer to our pickup truck and drive out here so we can haul it home." The telegraph operator explains that he'll be glad to help her, then adds, it will cost 99 cents a word." Well, after paying for the bull, the brunette realizes that she'll only be able to send her sister one word. After a few minutes of thinking, she nods and says, "I want you to send her the word "comfortable." The operator shakes his head. "How is she ever going to know that you want her to hitch the trailer to your pickup truck and drive out here to haul that bull back to your ranch if you send her just the word "comfortable?" The brunette explains, "My sister's blonde. The word is big. She'll read it very slowly.... "com-for-da-bul." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The seven dwarfs always left to go work in the mine early each morning. As always, Snow White stayed home doing her domestic chores. As lunchtime approached, she would prepare their lunch and carry it to the mine. One day as she arrived at the mine with the lunch, she saw that there had been a terrible cave-in. Tearfully, and fearing the worst, Snow White began calling out, hoping against hope that the dwarfs had somehow survived. "Hello, hello!" she shouted. "Can anyone hear me? Hello!" For a long while, there was no answer. Losing hope, Snow White again shouted, "Hello! Is anyone down there?" Just as she was about to give up all hope, there came a faint voice from deep within the mine. "Vote for Jacob Zuma, Vote for Jacob Zuma." "Vote for Jacob Zuma, Vote for Jacob Zuma." Snow White fell to her knees, crossed herself, and prayed, "Oh, thank you, Lord! At least Dopey is still alive." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effective advertising: Sign over a Gynaecologist's Office: "Dr. Jones, at your cervix."

One would dig a hole and the other would follow behind her and fill the hole in. They worked up one side of the street, then down the other. Then moved on to the next street, working furiously all day without rest, one girl digging a hole, the other girl filling it in again. An onlooker was amazed at their hard work, but couldn't understand what They were doing. So he asked the hole digger, "I'm impressed by the effort you two are putting into your work, but I don't get it - why do you dig a hole, only to have your partner follow behind and fill it up again?" The hole digger wiped her brow and sighed, "Well, I suppose it probably looks odd because we're normally a three-person team. But today the girl who plants the trees called in sick." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paddy was driving down the street in a sweat because he had an important meeting and couldn't find a parking place. Looking up to heaven he said, "Lord take pity on me. If you find me a parking place I will go to Mass every Sunday for the rest of me life and give up me Irish Whiskey!" Miraculously, a parking place appeared. Paddy looked up again and said, "Never mind, I found one." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Father Murphy walks into a pub in Donegal, and says to the first man he meets, "Do you want to go to heaven?" The man said, "I do, Father." The priest said, "Then stand over there against the wall." Then the priest asked the second man, "Do you want to go to heaven?" "Certainly, Father," was the man's reply. "Then stand over there against the wall," said the priest. Then Father Murphy walked up to O'Toole and said, "Do you want to go to heaven?" O'Toole said, "No, I don't Father." The priest said, "I don't believe this. You mean to tell me that when you die you don't want to go to heaven?" O'Toole said, "Oh, when I die, yes. I thought you were getting a group together to go right now." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
