Hi all So the back story to Han Solo and Chewbacca hits the screens today, and basically almost everywhere else around the world too. Businesswise they are expecting a challenging launch, given that The Avengers and Deadpool are doing so well. It's a long weekend in the USA and UK this week, which may helps things a bit there. Here, it's exam season as well as a busy weekend for rugby. The other two western releases are arthouse-and-related female-friendly films, namely Finding your Feet, and Please Stand By, while Bollywood supplies us a look at India's nuclear research program, which is curious as countries prefer to be circumspect about such things.... No previews this week. If you're busy with exams, good luck :-) May the force be with you :-) Released 25 May 2018 * Solo: A Star Wars Story (PG10-12 V) * Solo: A Star Wars Story (3D) (PG10-12 V) * Solo: A Star Wars Story (3D IMAX) (PG10-12 V) * Finding Your Feet (13 LD) * Please Stand By (PG10-12 L) * Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran http://www.moviesite.co.za/new.htm Forthcoming attractions http://www.moviesite.co.za/4thcome.htm Updated the pic and quote on the home page http://www.moviesite.co.za/ This Week's pinup http://www.moviesite.co.za/pinup.html (full HD wallpaper) Pick of the Week http://www.moviesite.co.za/pick.htm All the previews.

In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York. This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank and the cargo was forever lost. The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning which they still observe to this day. The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th, and is known of course as Sinko de Mayo. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- As I lay on my bed, thinking about you, I feel this strong urge to grab you and squeeze you, because I can't forget last night. You came to me unexpectedly during the calm and balmy night, and what happened in my bed still leaves a tingling sensation in me. You appeared from no where and shamelessly, without any reservations, you laid on my naked body...you sensed my indifference, so you applied your hungry mouth to me without any guilt or humiliation, and you drove me near crazy while you drained me. Finally, I drifted off to sleep. Today when I awoke, you were gone, I searched for you but to no avail, only the sheets bore witness to last night's events. My body still bears faint marks of your enthusiastic ravishing, making it all the more difficult to forget you. Tonight, I will remain awake, waiting for you ... you ****** mosquito. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paddy is walking down the road eating a bag of doughnuts. Murphy meets him & asks 'If I can guess how many doughnuts you have in the bag, can I have one? Paddy said 'If you can guess how many doughnuts are in there you can have both of them'. Murphy shouts 'Four!' --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Let's spare a thought for Michael O'Leary, Chief Executive of Ryanair. Arriving in a hotel in Dublin, he went to the bar and asked for a pint of Guinness. The barman nodded and said "That will be one Euro please, Mr. O'Leary," to which Michael replied "That's a very competitive price" and handed over his money. "Will you be wanting a glass with your Guinness, sir?" enquired the barman. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I love deadlines. Especially the whooshing sound they make as they pass by. Douglas Adams
