Funny Movie
If someone ever asks you if you would like to see a Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Icelandic, Finnish or Russian comedy then...well, I won’t say “Run for your life!!” but I will say “Be careful”.
Movies in the north loves to deal with serious issues like death, drugs, alcohol and other fun stuff, and even most of our comedies will leave you with a feeling that the world is a horrible place.
You think I’m exaggerating? Fine, but don’t say I didn’t warn you when you sit in the dark, crying.
A nice example is this [link] It’s considered one of the funniest scenes in the movie. He doesn’t like that the cow is looking at him.
And punching woman is funny too [link]

That's frickin' hilarious! Especially when the other guy gets there and there's dead cows laying all around. If you guys haven't seen the swedish movie "Kopps" you should give that a try too

Danes and other Scandinavians have the ability to make fun of everything!!! ^^
- Adams Apples (Adams Æbler)
- Flikkering Lights (Blinkende Lygter)

Very true!
Our most popular movie right now "Män som hatar kvinnor" was even made inte an american version "The girl with the dragon tatoo" And it's dark and depressing as hell!

Hehe.
Very funny.
I hope the mouse on the first frame is dead, otherwise no fun in it.
@42istnichtgenug As for Adams æbler, I've seen it. Too religious but amusing.
Leningrad Cowboys Go to America might be funny, but the guys in the film do not act as Russians in whatever aspect. This must have spoiled it for me.

@dolofo do you guys even understand yourself? do Americans even understand themselves? if not then why pass judgement on other countries?
besides we Americans think it's funny when someone falls down, (a little hypocritical their hey ol' USA?)

American humor consists mostly of watching people do stupid things and/or humiliating themselves. That's why pulling pranks on others is so common here. Parodies are also up there.
I honestly don't know what's so funny about our stupid shows like "Jersey Shore", though. Those are pretty stupid. And not in the funny way.

I love the humour in Scandiflicks
Also, I thought "Lars and the Real Girl" was a Scandiflick because of the tone and humour.
And yes, I spell humour like a brit.
