![23 Movie And Show Jokes (Hidden In Foreign Languages)](https://s3.crackedcdn.com/phpimages/pictofact/5/2/4/715524.jpg?v=2)
If you aren't big on watching foreign films and television shows, you're really missing out. There are a bunch of wonderful stories that are told in movies and TV shows that didn't originate in your home country. The different cultures lead to different perspectives, different expression, and different outlooks on storytelling. There are several great horror films, dramas, and comedies.
Yeah, about that last one. Comedies can sometimes go over the heads of people outside their home nation due to different translations and culture. I mean, in the end, humor is subjective, right?
If you haven't guffawed out loud during a movie or show in a while, It's understandable to assume that entertainment has gotten painfully unfunny. But trust us, cleverness is alive and well. It's just gotten so brilliant, it's now hiding itself in foreign language jokes literally right in front of our eyes and ears.
We asked our readers to translate, so we're all in on the joke. Here's what they found:
