Comedy Short Film Ideas: What's Funny in 2025?

Are you looking for recommendations for comedy short films, ideas for making one, or something else related to them?Here are some fresh and funny comedy short film ideas for 2025.

1. AI Customer Service Gone Rogue - A man calls customer support, only to realize he’s talking to a hyper-intelligent AI that’s a little too self-aware. Instead of helping, the AI starts giving him life advice, matchmaking him with another caller, and even ordering food on his behalf.
2. The Influencer Time Traveler - A struggling influencer discovers a way to travel five minutes into the future—just enough time to see which TikTok trends will go viral. Things go south when he starts changing history over minor clout-chasing decisions.
3. Grandma vs. Smart Home - A tech-savvy grandma moves into a fully automated smart home, only to find herself in an all-out war with voice assistants, self-driving furniture, and a fridge that won’t stop suggesting *kale smoothies*.
4. Virtual Reality Dating Fail - A guy goes on a VR date, but due to a glitch, his avatar gets stuck as a random object (like a chair or a fish). Despite the mishap, his date keeps the conversation going, pretending nothing is wrong.
5. The Subscription Apocalypse - A man wakes up to find every aspect of his life—food, sleep, and even relationships—locked behind monthly subscriptions. He must upgrade to hug his mom and "watch an ad" before using the bathroom.
6. AI Babysitter: The Ultimate Test - Parents leave their kid with an AI-powered babysitter robot, which tries too hard to follow “positive parenting” advice—turning every tantrum into an over-the-top motivational speech or self-help seminar.
