#SNL #OscarIsaac #CharliXCX #SNL47
Every "girlie" made me crack up. Oscar killed it with all his roles tonight
Call me Mike!
This is even funnier, when you think about how probably such kind of fan fiction also exists about Oscar Isaac lol
oh this is far cleaner than what exists of him (probably)
@@heatherbukowski2102 for sure :))
Yeah, I mean I don't even need to search for that to know it exists.
rule 34
@@heatherbukowski2102 it is...
trust me, I've come across the fucked up shit.
“This ain’t me mama. This is fiction!”
This was gold.
Pure lol
😂😂
I think you hear Chris Redd cracking up at that part off camera.
"Oh honey we got 800 pages in book one strap in" was one of the best lines to end on for this sketch.
Oscar did awesome tonight!
Brandon Sanderson: _kickstarter for five books_
Michael B Jackson: Oh honey, strap in.
I loved the way he said that :-D
Oscar reading Dua Lipa fanfiction on SNL was never something I thought I’d see oh my god 😂
Is Dua Lipa a real person?
@@John_Locke_108 what? 😃
@@John_Locke_108 Google exists 😊
@@garrettbrando9841 Yeah, I know Google is real but what about this person?
Self-insert RPF, no less.
oscar really COMMITTED to all his characters tonight, and it was great
This feels like poetry workshops I have been to. Except nobody interrupts or tries to ground anyone.
Pretty sure you and Mr. Isaac aren’t on a first name basis 🤡
@@jhendi309 how do you know
@@jhendi309 maybe they are like me where everyone is on a first name basis because THAT'S THEIR NAME 😂🤦♂
@@jhendi309 dummy
The voice he did for this sketch was absolutely incredible.
Aidy: writes a whole skit to contrast the fact that she always plays " the teacher"
Aidy Two Skits Later: plays "The Teacher"
She has to play 150 teacher roles for another Sexual Woman sketch
Legiterally what I thought when she came on screen. I live Aidy so.
@@pembrokelove Legiterally 😭
When you think about it, it was also Aidy's fanfic sketch followed by Isaac's fanfic sketch
@@prematture Google thinks it's another language. It translates to legally in English. Legiterally.
I was rlly hoping Dua was going to make a surprise cameo and his story turns out to just be a true retelling lol
i was thinking the same.....LOL
No thanks. Oh and maybe learn to spell before typing your nonsense. Thanks!
@@TheMusicalElitist what?
I figured Dua wouldn't have been part of the sketch. She's on tour right now in the midwest.
Very weird they didn't use Charli XCX for this (and the fact she resembles Dua Lipa a lot)
Didn't know Oscar Isaac would be reading Wattpad fanfiction on snl. I'm crying this is hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As a Wattpad writer I’m dying over here.
@@silverreins3501 I was one too LMAO. 🤣 🤣 🤣
My heart goes out to the writer who came up with "Michael B. Jackson" and had to endure the unwarranted lack of laughter
Please do tell me
I was hoping someone else caught this, I lost it 😂
I'm surprised it wasn't Michael B. Fassbender.
I don't know how many people caught that.
Even funnier when you realize that Zoe Kravitz, who played MJ in Spiderverse (And was married to Peter A. Parker) is hosting next week.
Yeah guys, this wasn't just about Michael Jackson 🤣 It's a MARVEL thing, and he's playing Moon Knight.
@@shiki7689 Michael Jordan vs. Michael B Jordan and Michael Jackson vs. Michael B. Jackson
As a fic writer and reader, I appreciate that the men were engrossed in the fic. Not something I see discussed much in the comments.
I hope Mike gets a lot of kudos and appreciative comments on his fic and later books on AO3
I second that. The fact that he found acceptance and support with at least a couple of the people in the group made me happy for him.
I appreciated that too! It honestly warmed my heart a bit to see that he'd found a small audience that connects with his fic
No. He's a manipulative creep. He is reading porn the women ask him to stop when they realize and he uses a deceoptive passive aggressive guilt trip pretends that it has something to do with him being unacceptable to being a janitor. This is exactly what sociopaths do to cleverly push your boundaries and violate you. Its the M.O for example of the killer in the film Creep who keeps getting the filmmaker guy to accept anything he does. He should post it on a celebrity fan porn site and get positive feedback and it'd be healthy. This is wrong.
The disdain expressed by the two girlies was palpable and devastating. Just like every fiction writing class I've ever been in.
"I manage her subreddit". I was so insanely thrown off by that line.
That section was so specific, yet seems made up, and it flashed past the audience. How and why would a janitor in his fifties know about "magazine" spreads in the 1970s?
@@skierpagebecause he in his sixties
"No judgments here" has never been said in a fiction workshop.
I'm still scarred!
It’s not a workshop without the judgement.
If you write fan fiction and post it on the internet, be prepared for mean people to insult you. You have been warned.
@@mamc1986 - If you post ANYTHING on the internet be prepared for mean people to do their thing.
@@mamc1986 And it won't matter.
"oh honey we got 800 pages in book 1, strap in" GETS ME EVERYTIME
Every accent Oscar did was different. If he wasn’t already an actor, he’d be an incredible voice actor.
They're allowed to do both
@@alslate7331 I know. He voiced Gomez in the animated Adam’s family. I’m just saying he could’ve made it as just a voice actor. Like Tom Kenny, Billy West, or even Mark Hamill (Joker in Batman).
.............................
He also voices Spider-Man 2099
He is a great actor.
This is up there with Adam Driver’s Career Day sketch as one of the best host-embodies-character sketches SNL has done
"I married ur grand daughter H.R, Filled her belly with my festering seed!!! And sired a boy!!!!"
I honestly don’t think that Adam Driver sketch will ever be matched. It was genuinely awards-worthy. He went ALL in. 😂
@@clothilde1623 oh I agree it’s incredible! But Oscar is up there even if not at the top
@@rosebyanyname Oscar was fantastically versatile, I completely agree there, but Adam still gets my vote!
“Dua Lipa was EXHAUSTED”
Why was that so funny?!?!
😂
😂
really? you trolling or serious question?
@@jgalvan09 I was just saying it was funny
I have been guilty of such far-fetched fan fiction. For most of 2020 and '21, I actually believed that I met her in 2019 and gave her pep talks and more! [Yes, just as Oscar Isaac's character describes, but much more graphic.] I accuse the Saturday Night Live writing staff of reading my fragile feeble mind and using it for this sketch! I also used to make many Dua Lipa jokes all over the SNL comments sections, as well as other UA-cam channels (CrashCourse, SciShow, etc.). Then, I thought the Albanian mafia was after me, after which I ended up in a local psychiatric ward. Good times!
Oscar's a solid gold actor everywhere he damn well goes.
I know, if they let him, he's gonna CRUSH as Moon Knight! I hope they go with the Bushmaster/face cutting storyline. If so, it has the potential to be the best comic anything ever put to celluloid.
@@johnedwardkerr7814 I truly hope they don’t go with the old Bendis arc, I didn’t quite enjoy that one.
I always thought he had a Spiderman villian sort of vibe to him. I think he would kill as green goblin
I don’t know who Oscar is, but he was FANTASTIC on SNL! He really got into each character in every sketch. Great actor. I hope he returns to host again many more times in the future.
He is really a great actor.
I have ONE problem with this sketch:
It's so good that last night, when my parents were watching Dune, I just couldn't stop laughing and smiling like an idiot, because when I looked at Leto, the only thing I could hear was "Sure thing girlie, what's up?"
"Duke Leto, could you teach me how to make out? I've never done it before."
@@Falconlibrary oh god
@@godsavevenice There is no god, trust me.
I still see “Victor”, his hair still smoking from electrocuting himself! LoL
@@JosephSchneider26 I nearly fu*king died during that sketch. I wanted more “Victor”! LoL
Im dying at the look on his face after he says "and nothing more right?"
You can tell that the girl who says " are you asking us?" had to say her line through her laughter
Oscar Isaac pulled out every Method trick for this gig. Accents, wigs, weird costumes, songs, glasses, powdered wigs.
There’s commitment then there’s “Call me my character’s name off camera” committed. I haven’t since this kind of dedication since Adam Driver’s or Daniel Craig’s hosting. A tour de force.
They always do that for SNL lolz 😅
They got Aidy to play a teacher in the same episode as her dream of not playing one.
🤣😂🤣 Good catch.
Maybe this was her 150th
........................
this was fantastic - Oscar was so good. Dude seems to actually know his lines and doesn't break - he is made for this! Bring him back again to host!
"actually"
This feels like poetry workshops I have been to. Except nobody interrupts or tries to ground anyone.
You know that’s what we do now
Oh yea best place ever to meet good looking women and the “poetry” leads directly to going back to her place haha. I think it’s just called poetry workshop so spouses aren’t suspicious.
Me too
No literally. My fiction workshops were like this too 💀💀💀💀
This is the type of sketch I always want to see more of on the show...low-key, with a slow build, a good payoff, strong performances, not just flinging stuff against the wall for a laugh. One of the writers also wrote the Longhorn Steakhouse sketch from a few months ago that I enjoyed for similar reasons. Oscar Isaac did such a wonderful job here - his best sketch of the night and one of the best of the season.
I'd say it was even one of the best of many seasons. This was genuine method acting, and it was well written because the writers actually understood the fanfic community they were lampooning. Oscar was brilliant in this bit.
This was great, but I have to give the edge to the Meatballs skit.
Oscar Isaac absolutely has comedy timing chops. I've got a new respect for his talent, and that's on top of his obvious acting talent. Well played.
Oscar Isaac is so good... like this was really professional.
It's almost like he is a professional actor or something.
@@TheDrag0nSlayer 😜
“Oh, honey, we got 800 pages in book one. Strap in.” 🤣🤣🤣
Oscar Isaac... Future member of the Five Timer's Club.
Yes!
I hope so. Oscar is fantastic.
Good prediction.
He was surprisingly good. I'd like to see him in a comedy film. If he had the right script....
💯
“This ain’t me, mama, this is fiction!” Died
Every time I get to the part where Oscar Isaac fake-laughs as Dua Lipa, I completely lose it 🤣.
I hope Oscar Isaac returns to host, he was such a great host and he was so good in every sketch
Another ST actor who kicks ass on SNL, the first being Adam Driver.
@@bobkolterjahn4266 ST? Don't you mean SW?
@@timsamanthony Normally, yes. But in this case, ST meant Sequel Trilogy.
@@bobkolterjahn4266 Ah that makes sense, when people say ST they normally mean Star Trek so I was confused
I hoped that Dua Lipa would have come in and said “Mike, darling, it’s time for our make out lessons” haha
OMG I was hoping for that too... and it turns out his fiction is just a reality lmao
I typically find SNL mildly amusing, but this sketch had me in tears and laughing out loud. I love Melissa trying not to crack at 1:36 because she knows what's coming.
Seriously?
@@monkeywrench4169 what?
Love that the other two guys were wanting to stay and listen to the rest of his story.🤣 Michael is certainly able to captivate some people with his writing.😅
Right? My thing is that a lot of women love ones that are made about a guy and a woman so one from a man's point of view made them feel uneasy
Dua Lipa was just in the building for Fallon, really surprised she didn't pop out at the end here
Were you stalking her? That's creepy
@@dannydorko7075 You know figuring out that the two shows are in the same building just requires a simple google search, right?
@@Mskittenlover12 it was a joke relating to the skit...
@@dannydorko7075 Yeah, my dude I don't think you made that clear enough. Jokes don't always translate well through internet comments.
Maybe they wrote the sketch around that happening and then she dropped out last-minute and they had to change the ending? Because otherwise it's a weird coincidence that they picked that specific celebrity on the day she happened to be in the building.
Or maybe it is just a coincidence.
I would get audible again to hear Oscar Isaac read that whole book
The amount of voice variations this man can do seamlessly is just amazing lol 😂
God bless the writer assigned to the self-insert fic.
Twist: All he had to do was change the main character's name
Someone should tell Mike about archive of our own, I'm sure he'll love it
🙃🙃🙃🙃 hello there >> fellow AO3 hahaha
Certainly. Does AO3 have restrictions on writing about real people? Haven’t been in there in awhile. Either way, he’ll always have a home on Wattpad. Place is like the wild west
@@ChestersonJack ao3 does not have a restriction on that from what i remember from their terms and conditions.. - wattpad has been deleting a lot of fanfic content secretly from what i have found from the groups i'm in in.
The opening line is actually hilarious and went over the entire audience's head
We love the self insert fan fiction community representation (one direction in the purge anybody?)
Spider gang
Hell I wrote 1k plus pages of basically me as captain America lol
Not only self-inserted, but self-"Mary Sue"-d.

Indeed. I’m on chapter 32 of my project I started in August of 2020, averaging about 2.5k words per chapter. It’s a massive, multi-crossover, self-insert AU fanfic set in a vague, anachronistic 1969-1970 with characters from over twenty-seven different franchises. I’ve got my main character in over 8 different romances, but only had the first sex scene in the latest chapter. It’s a real slow-burn. I’d say it’s the only thing keeping me from going crazy in quarantine, but it’s highly likely that the project only began due to quarantine madness.
*THE APOGEE OF MIDNIGHT*
*Chapter 1*
There it was again, the sound of mop on tile. The start of another late night, one of thousands like it, alone in Chandler High. But the janitor liked the silence. It held him in a cool, delicate calm.
Then, footsteps. Loud, and getting closer.
"Hello? School's closed!"
A woman turned the corner. She looked lost.
"Sorry, I'm looking for someone named Mike?"
"Oh yeah? Who's askin'?"
"My name is Dua Lipa. I'm a big pop star, and I'm looking for a janitor here named Mike."
The janitor paused. That was *his* name.
Dua Lipa sighed. "You haven't heard of me, have you?"
"Sorry, ma'am. More of a classic rock guy myself. But, sure, maybe I've seen a bikini pic or two. How can I help?"
"Mind if I sit down?" Dua Lipa was *exhausted.* She'd just done a concert in Europe, and was still in her sparkly show get-up.
He liked her. She was *cool.*
"So what brings you out all this way to see lil' ol' me, girlie?"
"Ooh, I don't know. This is gonna sound crazy... "
"C'mon, Dua Lipa. You know you can talk to me. I'm your friend."
It's true, they were fast friends. And nothing more... right?
"Well... I guess I wanted to ask you a favor, Mike."
"Heh, sure thing, girlie, what's up?"
"Would you teach me how to make out? I've never done it before... "
"Sure, Dua Lipa. I could teach ya how to make out. Wait--- can my friend come? Her name is Tawny McDaniels."
"The famous ginger MILF?"
"One and the same."
"You know her?"
"Know her? I manage her Subreddit! The gal's a dang rockstar."
Of course, pornography hadn't been the same since the seventies, back before T.J. Munst took over at Stuffed, when the mags had vision and the spreads were actually good.
(Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Stuff happens, stuff happens...)
Dua laughed, "Hahahaha. Hey, Michael B., thanks. This truly was the apogee of midnight."
"Amen."
*Chapter 2*
“Michael B Jackson” deserved more laughs.
I love how he's flipping pages and you can see the pages he flipped are blank
There's something taped onto the pages, which I think are his lines.
Kudos to the writers of this script and for Oscar's pretrial of the character. This is EXACTLY how them Y/N fics be. I was crying laughing 🤣
"and nothing more right?"
Oh my gawd I love this
Next time Oscar hosts Dua Lipa should make an appearance for the lonely janitor
His timing in this skit was perfection.
This needs to be a thing. More guests reading random celebrity fanfictions pls.
" oh honey, we got 800 pages in book 1. Strap in"🤣
It’s him saying dua lipa’s full name everytime for me! 😂😂
This was strangely wholesome and I loved it.
It was bad.
@@valerie2827 thanks for the input Valerie
@@valerie2827 strap in, mama. 800 pages to go.
They were fast friends... And nothing more, right? 👀🤣🤣
I wasn't expecting this plot at all, great sketch. The contract between what men and women like was spot on.
the michael b. jackson joke was SO underappreciated.
It went over my head.
I thought at first it was just “oh his name is michael jackson” but then I realized its a play on michael b jordan lol
Big facts lmaooo
He was so cute in this lol
Lmaooo not the fanfiction 😭
got flashbacks to the college writing classes i took
there’s always that ONE guy
... there's 800 pages, strap in! LMFAO...
From "somehow Palpatine returned" to this amazing performance. He nailed it.
Hey, sometimes you get paid to say what the writers hand you.
tbf, he literally looks so done as he says it lol
This week's SNL was really really good.
word
its at its best when its absurd and unhinged. loved the willem episode for this too
Get this man an AO3 account
"Okay, cool"
I died at that line! :-D
The “girlys” laid me out lol so funny then the can you teach me how to make out hahaha
Beautiful! Love the commitment and their genuine “carry on, good sir” tone. Oscar was great, especially loved the critique of the “good ol’ times.”
This is MCU canon as one of Marc Spector’s personalities
Yea
“This ain’t me mama” 💀
This is one of the funniest episodes in a while.
this is underrated genius
When he said his name was Michael B. Jackson I laughed so hard
I watch this video every night before bed
He is just an incredible actor. I had him at The Promise and Triple Frontier. Beautiful actor. Your awesome Oscar.
Aw man. I was so certain this was building up to an actual Dua Lipa cameo. 😔
I'm a writer, and every time someone asks if I want to see their work, it ends up being something like this 🤣
That’s why I never ask if anyone wants to see my work. Because it’s exactly like this.
Although, my good friend said I captured the voice of F Murray Abraham perfectly to page, so I’ll always have that.
..........................
This was the funniest one, get him on here again he's good timing, he's funny as shit in all categories
Would have been great if Dua Lipa actually popped in at the end asking if there was a janitor that could help her with a messy situation.
Man this guy is a brilliant actor 😂
Literally laughing out loud multiple times 😂
I love this sketch with all my heart
Omg this guy is amazing. Nothing like a good actor!
Oscar nailed these skits. Bro has skills.
"Michael B. Jackson" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love when someone comes on and ABSOLUTELY COMMITS to the bit.
Oscar helping keep my theory alive that dramatic actors really help create some of the best character driven sketches ever
This was the best sketch of the night.
i’ve been thinking about this sketch non-stop since the moment i saw it
oscar absolutely killed this 🛐
Reminds me of those letters: “Dear Hustler, I never thought it would happen to me….”
Jesus Christ Oscar is actually freaking me out in this character 😂
I KNOW I WAS REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE LOL
Marc Spectors’s 4th alter leak
Wattpad fanfic writers: 👁👄👁
The amen got me.
Oscar was do incredibly versatile and nailed all those different personas tonight perfectly. I’m getting a slight Al Franken vibe here. The Senator, not SNL Al.
OH GOD HES HILARIOUS IM CRYING MY EYES OUT
Awwwwuh! This character is actually so adorable...and hysterical. 😄😄😄
“Oh honey we got 800 pages in BOOK ONE” is the most Wattpad fan-fic line they could have written
Omg Oscar is creepy and funny at same time lololol
This is 100% what happens in creative writing workshops that are open to pretty much anyone. Except this guy kept it clean and didn't turn it into creative-body-parts-modding fanfic. There are things you can't forget out there.
If my man wants to write Smut, my man can write smut!
