  1. I believe that it is something close to "We too run to Brokeback Mountain."

  3. Thats close but kører can also mean ride or drive (it is on a bus advert). Most likely though since it is using *til* it means "we also drive (*run, *ride) fast to Brokeback Mountain." Utterly hilarious, but I prefer my Danish humor dark.

  4. The ad says "We also drive to Brokeback Mountain".

    It seems to be an ad for a bus company (HUR Trafik) with the slogan "The Bus - When it suits you."

    I'm guessing that it's supposed to imply (beyond the liberal attitude towards gay passengers) that they have regular trips in and out of larger cities.

  6. Yikes!! But no cuddling?....

    I guess it's just before the house-lights dim and the unending-previews start.

  9. Why can't our government go see Brokeback Mountain?

  10. Yep, the ad says, 'We also drive to Brokeback Mountain'. I guess they're simply saying the Hur Traffik bus network is extensive... Scandianivian mass media is generally very liberal and inclusive.

  11. Well, the're in a movie theatre, so it means that you can also take the bus, not only to a town or an intersection, but you can take it to pure movie heaven.

  12. Hmmm... I think the boys are actually sitting on a bus seat. There is a red button on the yellow seat divider (the button should read "tryck", or "press"). Passengers press the button to indicate they would like the bus to stop at the next bustop. The curtains behind the seats, however, are there to represent the cinema.

  14. Andy-

    Jaan is right. It is a Huur Traffik advertisement (and I believe it is showing the cinemas that are playing the movie below.

    Tusind tak, Jaan!

  15. Are there any gay puns here? Riding, etc? As in we not only ride each other, but we also ride Huur to the movies. And I love that the button for when you want to "get off" reads "tryck" unless that's pronounced like "trike". :)
