    Christoph Waltz is literally the first person I've ever seen on TV saying "That's not funny" to the audience without trying to cause another laugh

      I don't know, i mean, he has a particular sense of humor and sometimes tries (and manages) to make people laugh while he looks like he's being serious. Sometimes i struggle to tell if he's being serious or not.

      Maybe sometimes it looks like this, but sometimes he's just rude. A brazilian comedian interviewed him once and when the guy tried to make a scene for the show, he just said he wouldn't do it, saying he wasn't getting paid for that, so he wouldn't work for him. The interview didn't last long and then it didn't even go live. He's not a kind person at all.

      Welcome to the wonderful World of us Austrians, we never put on a fake smile and talk behind backs, simply because we are rude right away. Also, don't expect an Austrian man to work if he isn't getting paid for it. And while we're at it, we love to complain about everything at our work, but in the end we still do our job well. :]

    Don't take Austrians too serious, they have a very special kind of humor, they call it "Schmäh" and if you don't understand it you think it's very rude and arrogant, but it isn't, it's meant in a lovely way, it's kind of being extremely sarcastic without showing being sarcastic .After a while in Austria you'll figure it out. Christoph Waltz is enjoying this 100%.

You can't throw around such a strong and disturbed psychological disorders as psychopathy just because you think someone tries a bit harder to level with someone else...

      That annoyed me too. And for that stupid "Hey y'all!" joke. But it probably had to do with how Freud described the good and evil duality present in human psyche. There's our basic, instinctual, animalistic desires, and then there's our idealistic vision for how'd we'd like to be and act. These two conflicting ideas are personified in Krampus and Saint Nicolas, or better yet, in the kids that they'd get, respectively.

      Conan is the red hair guy. I prefer him and other talk show hosts over Fallon. Compared to other hosts, Jimmy Fallon isn't that witty, smooth, or that great of an interviewer, but his "hysterical"personality somehow appeals to mainstream audiences. I never liked him on SNL either. Just too giggly, 1 dimensional, and awkward. (not the good kind of awkward like Conan) He seems like a silly kid, and not a sophisticated show host. I guess the reasons we dislike him are actually the reasons most people like him. They find him adorable. Plus his games with celebs are instant viral youTube fodder. He really owes his production team big time for saving his ass

Christoph Waltz is clearly a very talented, intelligent, and highly esteemed man and it would be nice to actually hear what he has to say instead of listening to Jimmy's attempt at childish humour. I feel the need to apologize to Christoph for Jimmy's behaviour. So embarrassing.

    It’s possible the reason Jimmy is so rude to Christoph is because he’s intimidated by his intelligence. Or because he tried to keep things light on the show. Then again, I’ve never found Jimmy particularly funny, more annoying and boring. Like I don’t understand, why would you invite a guest on a show if you won’t let them talk? And laugh at their culture.

    It's weird to me to see how people from other counrtries react to our tradition. To me the Krampus is the most normal thing ever. And the thing he mentioned with men dressing up in actuall wool, wearing big wooden masks and getting drunk and running through the village is not only a Krampus thing. We also have those creatures called "Perchten" who look nearly the same as the Krampus and there are like big events called "Perchtenlauf" (Perchten-run) where big groups of people put on wool suits and wear big wooden masks too and have like kind of a parade, I guess, where they go through the village or town at night and many people go there to watch them. It's an old ritual that in the past was used to chase away the winter and cold weather so the farmers could start planting again.

    In Germany Knecht Ruprecht helps St. Nikolaus, but he is nowhere near as scary as Krampus. Check out videos here or google it...the masks are awesomely horrifying. As far as I know, the closest thing to Krampus happens in the southwest corner of Germany where there's a tradition of wearing masks and costumes during Fasnet (Mardi Gras). Every little town has their own masks and costumes. As a kid it's beyond exciting to be part of this for a week each year.

    as a tyrolian i would say christoph waltz ,unlike a lot of austrians, is very polite precisely and a gentleman and you see the difference in humor between fallon and waltz. Waltz has the kind of humor wich gets produced by saying something very serious (also meant serious) but at the same time its fummy because its true but crazy. And fallon has the IQ 70 being drunk kind of humor.
