History WebVideo / MonteFjanton

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotDidactic: Played for laughs in the review for The Grief: Felix comes up with a theory that Norah is Sarah's alter ego, and keeps bringing up evidence for it and praising Danne for how deep the movie is, but then he remembers that he's reviewing a Daniel Lehmussaahri film.

* WhamEpisode: S1E07 of Mystikhörnan qualifies[[spoiler:, as it ends with the Demon King Baram betraying Morgan and Kenneth mysteriously disappearing, and presumed dead]]. From this episode on, it's apparent that this is no longer a lighthearted jab at conspiracy theories, but a story taking place in a CrapsackWorld where not only are Morgan's theories true, but the reptilians are pursuing him because of his studies.

* BizarroEpisode: S2E08 of Mystikhörnan is structured more like a weird parody of a sitcom than anything else, and even for Mystikhörnan standards, it kind of comes out of nowhere.

* ArtifactTitle: According to their NärCon Sommar 2015 Q&A, their channel name is one. The name was basically meant to evoke Creator/MontyPython while having a silly twist to it, as "fjant" is a Swedish term for a silly person. However, their works have very little to do with Monty Python nowadays. Felix and Basse remember thinking the name was bad and considering changing it, but then realized the Felix Recenserar episode on ''The Ketchup Effect'' was absolutely blowing up and that their channel name had become their brand name, and that they were stuck with it, like it or not. That being said, they couldn't come up with any better name ideas for their channel when they were considering changing it.

* StagingAnIntervention: At the begin of the review for ''Sune I Fjällen'', Felix gets confronted by his friends who tell him that he can't avoid reviewing the movie any longer and eventually ''has'' to do it, especially since almost every second comment on [=YouTube=] was "When will you review ''Sune I Fjällen''?".

-->How Felix opens most episodes of Felix Recenserar

Their most popular project is called Felix Recenserar, which is a VideoReviewShow focusing (almost) solely on Swedish movies and foreign movies dubbed to Swedish. They also make Basses Rätt i Skafferiet (called Basse Cooks Stuff in the English subtitles for the earlier episodes), which pokes fun of cooking shows by having the premise be to cook something disgusting, then have people try to eat it.

Some of their minor projects include Mystikhörnan (called The Mystery Show in the English subtitles for earlier episodes), which is one of their few works to have a scripted plot ([[RandomEventsPlot though not a very comprehensive one]]) poking fun at conspiracy theories, Midnatts-Let's Play, which is best described as an unscripted vlog with LetsPlay elements, Felix Recenspelar, which is similar to Felix Recenserar but focuses on video games that aren't necessarily Swedish. They also do vlogs from time to time.

** Being requested to review things that don't fit his criteria is also a sore spot for him. For a film to be considered being reviewed for Felix Recenserar, it has to be Swedish (or dubbed to Swedish), [[CaptainObvious it has to be a film]] and it has to be bad. Though he has reviewed a few tv series and a few movies he believes to be good, those reviews are still very rare, and he has only deviated from the criteria of a movie having to be Swedish/dubbed to Swedish exactly twice, and even then, one of the times, it was due to EarlyInstallmentWeirdness. Felix has stated that his focus on Swedish films is what puts him apart from other [[VideoReviewShow Video Review Shows]], and without that, there's nothing that would make Felix Recenserar interesting compared to similar shows. [[spoiler:It bothers him so much that at one point, he even made an April Fools review of the first {{Twilight}} movie, where he's off camera most of the video, not even watching the movie, then ending the video with emphasizing that he will never review Twilight, nor Film/TheRoom or any other foreign films that haven't been dubbed to Swedish.]]

** The two first episodes of Felix Recenserar were recorded in 2010, when the series' proper debut was one year later, and it shows. The first episode has Basse doing some of the commentary on screen instead of Felix, which hasn't happened since. The second episode is recorded at a graveyard, and covers a foreign movie that hasn't been dubbed to Swedish, that being Film/FridayThe13thPartVIJasonLives. It's also the shortest episode of Felix Recenserar to date.

* FreezeFrameBonus: In the review for Wabuu, exactly 13 minutes and 37 seconds into the video, [[LeetLingo a screen saying 13:37]] is briefly shown.

** In the review for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcYM-fQ_hgg Hata Göteborg]], this happens to Basse as well, once it turns out there's a dog in the movie named Basse.

** The soundtrack for Tahkorerna IV is mostly beach party remixes, with the climax having [[spoiler:It's Raining Men]] playing in the background in the original version.
** In Maffix, an OldShame of Felix' that has been mentioned and briefly shown but never properly reviewed, Las Ketchup is playing during an action scene.

** The sketches in the Felix Recenserar episode on {{Film/Beck}} are this to viewers who are fans of the movies Felix reviews and/or have ridiculously high expectations on Felix Recenserar.

** Whenever a character dies, "I Will Remember You" by Creator/SarahMclachlan will be played over an "obituary" for the character.

* CriticalResearchFailure:
** Morgan Månstråle's theories have a lot of holes in them. [[BerserkButton He doesn't like having them pointed out]].
** Even though Felix' videos are usually very well researched, he sometimes slips up. It usually happens in reviews of movies that are adaptations and Felix did not [[ReadTheFreakingManual Read The Freaking Source Material]]. He lampshades and justifies this in his review for Film/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirls, saying that he doesn't have the time to watch the show just to understand the movie.
*** However, one major slip up he did in regards to this comes from his review of [[Literature/TheCircle the movie adaptation of The Circle]], where he implies that [[spoiler:Anna-Karin raped her love interest]], which doesn't happen in the movie nor the book.
*** In the review for Nattbuss 807, Felix seemingly doesn't know that there's a part of Stockholm named Handen (which is also the Swedish word for "the hand"), which leads to him being confused when a character says there's been a murder in Handen.
*** In some early episodes of Felix Recenserar, he has a hard time identifying the slang words for police used in some of the movies he's reviewing.

* HilariousInHindsight: Starting with 2014, Felix stopped doing reviews of movies during December. His reasoning is that there are very few Swedish Christmas movies worth talking about, and he doesn't want that stop him from doing Christmas specials: instead, he reviews a {{Julekalender}} during Christmas. Just one year later, the Swedish Christmas movie En Underbar Jävla Jul is released, and who is not only part of the cast, but even the director? Why, [[BerserkButton Helena Bergström]], of course!

* NoExportForYou: Basse has stated in the NärCon 2015 Q&A that they won't do English subtitles for their more recent works simply because it would be too time consuming and take away precious time that could be used to make more content.

* OldShame: The members feel like a lot of their older projects fall into this. They often fall victim to SelfDeprecation because of this.
-->'''Felix:''' We're 30 seconds in, dear viewers. DO YOU GET WHY NONE OF OUR OLD FILMS ARE AVAILABLE ON THE INTERNET NOW?

* SeinfeldIsUnfunny: Felix argues that this is the reason Film/ShowMeLove was the winner of a poll deciding on what movie he should review during December 2013 despite it, in his opinion, being a pretty good movie. He says that it created the mold for how Swedish YA fiction looked like during the TurnOfTheMillennium, leading to this trope happening to people exposed to YA fiction made during this time period.

* SoBadItsGood: Felix argues that Daniel Lehmussaari's films, Film/EvilEd, and Hata Göteborg all fall under this.
