What’s the funniest joke you’ve ever heard?

If you’re anything like me, you’ll struggle to remember one and while everyone’s telling their’s at a party you’re busy trying to remember the punchline of yours.

Why are jokes so hard to remember?

Anyway, there’s a new film set to be released early next year which is sure to arm you with plenty of ammunition.

It’s called That’s Not My Dog! and Transmission Films have just released six brand new images from the new Australian comedy which boasts an all-star cast of Australian comedians including Shane Jacobson, Paul Hogan, Jimeoin, Steve Vizard, Michala Banas and many more.

That’s Not My Dog! celebrates our love of joke telling.

“I didn’t really direct this film,” says director Dean Murphy. “I just gathered the 30 funniest people I knew, turned on the cameras and kept out of the way!”

The film centers around Shane Jacobson (playing himself) who is throwing a party. Invited are the funniest people Shane knows comprising of Australia’s biggest stars along with several Australian music legends playing their biggest hits live, right throughout the party. The invite that goes out is clear. Don’t bring meat. We’ll provide the beer. Just come armed with nothing but the funniest jokes you’ve ever heard. Shane will take care of the rest. It’ll be a night of great friends telling the world’s funniest jokes over a beer and BBQ.
