00:01Come on! Get out of the TV!
00:03Good! You said it was movie night!
00:05Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're looking at the times when SNL broke down the biggest tropes and traits
00:10from the Disney universe.
00:12You crushed it, man!
00:14I... I think I ate a guy.
00:16Yeah, you did!
00:17Number 30. Beauty and Mr. Beast
00:20Whether you're in the U.S. or halfway across the world in Pakistan, there's no escaping Mr. Beast commercials.
00:25But looks like the YouTuber and social media personality has cracked the code to infiltrate the Disney universe, too.
00:31What happens when the last petal falls?
00:33A man in Albany has to eat 500 soft-shell crabs.
00:37In this Beauty and the Beast parody, SNL reimagines the tale as old as time a bit closer to the
00:42modern age.
00:43And honestly, given just how unavoidable Mr. Beast has become, this doesn't seem like much of a stretch.
00:48From the uncanny grin to that fixed stare into the camera, it's like watching Jimmy Donaldson in the flesh,
00:54with a pair of horns.
00:56He's... he's... Mr. Beast!
01:00I'm keeping her dad trapped in a dungeon for 30 days for a chance to win over $300,000.
01:06But SNL also pokes fun at modern consumer habits,
01:09as Belle and the castle staff eagerly sign up for the Beast's endless sponsorship-style generosity.
01:15Well, then I guess I'll try.
01:17You hear me?
01:19Yes, you're me!
01:23Number 29.
01:24The Parent Trap.
01:25It doesn't get more family fun than Disney's Parent Trap,
01:28a film that launched Lindsay Lohan to stardom.
01:31But the nostalgia gets completely derailed in this segment
01:34as Jenna Ortega recreates the iconic twin reunion scene with her body double, Fred Armisen.
01:39You know, you can just call me Ray.
01:41Yeah, this is gonna be fun.
01:42I think I get the gist.
01:43Okay, great.
01:44As the kooky setup promises,
01:46the wholesome Disney tone spirals out of control with Armisen's bizarre stand-in performance.
01:51From awkward deliveries to colorful words and increasingly disturbing improvisations,
01:55the sketch shows us what happens when someone misunderstands the assignment.
02:10But in an equally amusing turnaround,
02:13Armisen's off-base take on the movie ends up stealing the show.
02:16So much so that by the time it's all said and done,
02:18we're seeing a whole different kind of double trouble on the poster.
02:22Wow, that was it.
02:23Thank you both for those performances.
02:25I'm blown away.
02:26This is gonna be a hit,
02:26and I'll see you both at the premiere.
02:31Number 28.
02:32New Disney Show.
02:33There's always been something so memeable about Disney Channel shows.
02:37Between the exaggerated reactions,
02:39goofy sound effects,
02:40and hyperactive personalities,
02:41it's a formula tailor-made for an SNL parody.
02:44No!
02:45Hey, I'm Haley.
02:47This is my brother, Max.
02:50Our family was always pretty normal.
02:54But things take a dark turn in this sketch,
02:57where the happy-go-lucky Disney world collides with the ring.
03:00Kristen Wiig's suburban mom arrives with a twist,
03:02as her sitcom lifestyle clashes with her reality as a cursed water ghost.
03:10Mom's home.
03:11Mom's home.
03:13Balancing cheesy Disney energy with creepy horror imagery,
03:16the sketch goes for maximum absurdity.
03:18We're not sure if we're supposed to laugh or cringe,
03:21as straight-up nightmare fuel serves as the punchline for all the upbeat sitcom antics.
03:26Mom!
03:28What?
03:29Oh, now I'm holding you up?
03:30That's a first.
03:33Mom!
03:34By the end,
03:35you might find yourself just a little bit cautious the next time you watch Good Luck, Charlie.
03:39Number 27.
03:40Avengers News Report.
03:42Most people think Thor Ragnarok was the first time Chris Hemsworth truly flexed his comedic skills as the character.
03:47But the actor first showed the mighty Thor's funnier side in this sketch.
03:51Just a couple of months before audiences caught the Avengers in Age of Ultron,
03:55Hemsworth gave them a peek at the character on the SNL stage.
03:58Hey, Thor!
03:59Thor!
03:59Thor!
03:59Can we talk to you for a second?
04:01We are the champions, my friend!
04:05What's up?
04:06While it might not be accurate to the actual film,
04:09you won't find us complaining as Hemsworth and the cast show us the wackiest side of the MCU.
04:14With unbridled charm and complete chaos,
04:16the actor goes off the rails portraying the God of Thunder's victory parade.
04:20Considering how Age of Ultron ends,
04:22this might actually be a better ending than the one we got.
04:25Check out my podcast on SoundCloud.
04:28It's sick.
04:29It's sick, sick.
04:30And I'm sorry we destroyed the city.
04:32I love my life!
04:38Number 26.
04:39Night School Musical.
04:40If you liked High School Musical 1,
04:42High School Musical 2,
04:44and High School Musical 3,
04:46then nothing can prepare you for the movie event of the decade.
04:49Get ready for Night School Musical.
04:53Senior year equivalent.
04:54While you should be putting your head in the game at school,
04:57there comes a point when it's time to move on.
04:59What happens if you don't?
05:00Well, you might just end up in Night School Musical instead.
05:03Screwed up once, but now we're turning the tide.
05:06Pushed my sound just deep down inside.
05:08Still can't read and I'm 49.
05:10Gonna get on, learn on.
05:12This sketch shows us the dark side of the high school experience,
05:16with much older students taking a second shot at turning things around.
05:19Although everyone stays upbeat,
05:21it's clear that they've all got a lot of issues festering underneath.
05:24And I have a respiratory disease.
05:27Bless your balls.
05:29Oh, no doubt.
05:30I need to take a break.
05:31Time out.
05:35But if there's anything Disney teaches us,
05:38it's that you can always sing and dance your troubles away.
05:40So, even with a boatload of personal problems and health issues,
05:44the only time you'll find these old-timers complaining
05:47is through upbeat Disney-style musical numbers.
05:49Night School Musical.
05:51Senior year equivalent.
05:53They've got their whole lives behind.
05:56Number 25.
05:57Disney World Show.
05:58It might be the most magical place on Earth,
06:01but that doesn't mean everyone's matching the exact vibe that Disney wants them to.
06:05In this sketch,
06:06Drake plays a Disney World guide
06:07trying to get everyone excited for the Indiana Jones epic stunt spectacular.
06:11Unfortunately for him,
06:13he picks out the one kid who doesn't seem to get what the show is about.
06:16I am Rahat.
06:19And where are you from, Rahat?
06:22I am Rahat.
06:23I know, and that's awesome.
06:25Are you ready to be the star of today's adventure?
06:28I am Rahat.
06:30No matter how much Drake tries to hype her up
06:32or how many Disney characters they throw at her,
06:34she seems determined to deadpan her way through.
06:37So, if you ever thought your job was bad,
06:39just remind yourself you're not in Drake's shoes at this moment.
06:42Looks like Rahat just crashed through our set into the Aladdin live staging area.
06:46I'm gonna just go ahead and end our adventure here.
06:49I've been Dalton.
06:49Enjoy your day at the park, folks.
06:55Number 24, Disney characters, Blake Shelton.
06:58Be honest, how many of us watch Pocahontas for John Smith?
07:01If this SNL sketch is to be believed,
07:04then the answer is absolutely no one.
07:06Blake Shelton suits up as the male lead in the Disney Renaissance classic,
07:10showing us why the company sticks to its most popular characters
07:12when it comes to meet and greets.
07:14Did you know that Pocahontas taught me about nature?
07:17Did you know that leaves are like a tree's hair?
07:22Alright, looks like currently no wait to chat with John Smith.
07:29You know it's bad when people would rather get an autograph
07:31from the wife who dies at the beginning of Up than you.
07:34And try as he might,
07:36Shelton gets no interest from any visitor at the theme park.
07:39Would you like to meet my friend Miko, my silly raccoon?
07:42Oh, sure, Tyler. Look at the raccoon, sweetie.
07:45Hey, Miko, got a biscuit for you.
07:52While the Pocahontas series enjoys its own fame,
07:54this sketch proves why you shouldn't hold your breath
07:57for a John Smith spin-off in the near future.
07:59I'm gonna go get drunk and ride Space Mountain.
08:06Number 23, Cars 4.
08:08Ka-chow!
08:09Hey, hey, what are you doing?
08:12That's my sister, buddy.
08:13Not tonight, Mater!
08:15Long considered the black sheep of the Pixar brand,
08:18the Cars movies have repeatedly been criticized
08:20for their lack of depth.
08:21Turns out there might be a way to add some heavier elements
08:24to the series if this SNL sketch is to be believed.
08:26With Owen Wilson on board for Cars 4 recordings,
08:30everything seems to be in motion.
08:31Of course, there is the little snag of the script,
08:34which is anything but family-friendly.
08:36You bet I can still win the Piston Cup!
08:39Amazing!
08:40Next!
08:40Back off, Jack-off!
08:42Back-back off, jackass!
08:43I wasn't looking at your wife!
08:46Nailed it!
08:47And if the implication is anything to go by,
08:50even an R rating might not be enough.
08:52Putting an extremely intense and downright depressing spin
08:56on the Disney formula,
08:57things get worse the longer it goes on.
08:59So what college do you girls go to?
09:03Oh, you're in high school?
09:04Could have fooled me!
09:06But with the right price,
09:07even Wilson is willing to bend his principles.
09:10Ka-chow, indeed.
09:11That's just for this.
09:12Mm-hmm.
09:13Disney had a very good year.
09:16Okay, well, come on.
09:17This thing's not gonna record itself.
09:18Let's go.
09:19Ka-chow, right?
09:20Number 22.
09:21Princess and the Frog
09:22The moral behind the Princess and the Frog
09:25is that love knows no boundaries.
09:26But is that technically true?
09:28Once you ask some hard questions,
09:31it doesn't seem that love really can conquer all.
09:33This SNL sketch dares to go
09:35where no Disney film has gone before,
09:37as Zoe Kravitz's princess character
09:39gets real about her situation.
09:40Will you kiss me?
09:42Of course I will.
09:43Because love conquers all.
09:46Exactly.
09:47You love me for me.
09:48You don't care that I'm a frog
09:50and frogs don't have penises.
09:53What was that?
09:54As much as we'd like to believe
09:56in fairy tales coming true,
09:57we'll have to side with her on this one.
09:59With pretty much nothing to offer her,
10:01the prince seems less and less appealing by the minute.
10:04I guess if he changed back to being a human,
10:07he would get his penis back.
10:09Then let's do it.
10:11Let's kiss and join our souls forever.
10:13And what if I didn't have a penis before?
10:17What?
10:19Like, as a human before the curse,
10:21what if hypothetically,
10:22it got ripped clean off in a bowling alley?
10:24Let's just say we're glad Naveen turns back
10:26into a prince in the Disney classic.
10:28Otherwise,
10:29the film really would have deserved a place
10:30on the Disney minus service instead.
10:32Okay, I'm out.
10:34Yep, even for voodoo, this is messed up.
10:36Number 21.
10:37Walt Disney's Tidy.
10:39From 1996 to 2008,
10:41SNL featured animated sketches parodying various media.
10:44So it was only a matter of time
10:46before Disney came on their radar.
10:47In this 1998 Disney parody,
10:50SNL imagined a film where its story
10:52was merged with the Disney template.
10:54The result?
10:54None other than Walt Disney's Tidy.
10:57Starring the voice of Jason Alexander.
10:59I may not be that safe,
11:00and I may not be that small,
11:03but I got a hunch,
11:04that we're gonna have a ball.
11:08Featuring the voices of A-list talents
11:10Jason Alexander,
11:11Whoopi Goldberg,
11:12Gilbert Gottfried,
11:13and Molly Ringwald,
11:14the short segment has to be seen
11:16to be believed.
11:17I'm a bad old iceberg,
11:19but I'm cool in here.
11:21Yeah, I'm a bad old iceberg,
11:23and I'm gonna sink that spunky old ship.
11:26With everyone from Napoleon,
11:28Anne Frank,
11:28and a sentient ship and iceberg,
11:30it's the kind of material
11:31that's only believable
11:33through a Disney-fied lens.
11:34Is it bizarre?
11:35Absolutely.
11:36But is it still way better
11:38than any of the other animated Titanic movies?
11:40You better believe it.
11:42Don't miss Tiny,
11:43or your child will hate you.
11:45You miss Tiny!
11:48Number 20.
11:48Debbie Downer in Disney World.
11:50Debbie Downer evolved
11:51into one of Rachel Dratch's
11:52most iconic recurring characters,
11:54and it all began in this sketch.
11:57Woo!
11:57I love me some stinking eggs!
11:59Ever since they found
12:01mad cow disease in the US,
12:03I'm not taking any chances.
12:05It can live in your body for years
12:07before it ravages your brain.
12:09Being the ultimate buzzkill,
12:11it only makes sense to send Debbie
12:12to the happiest place on Earth.
12:14As the rest of the family
12:15attempts to enjoy
12:16a fun-filled Disney World breakfast,
12:17Debbie can't resist chiming in
12:19with a few not-so-fun facts.
12:21Disney World really is fun.
12:23It makes me feel like a kid again.
12:25I mean, the time before
12:26my two-year stint at Children's.
12:28When not even Pluto can take it,
12:30no amount of sugar
12:31will make the medicine go down.
12:35Debbie's dialogue
12:35is so depressingly hysterical
12:37that the whole cast
12:38breaks character throughout.
12:40But this only made the sketch
12:41more memorable.
12:42If anything,
12:43the cast's constant chuckling
12:44encourages the viewer
12:45to re-watch it multiple times
12:47in order to catch
12:47all the lines
12:48that were laughed over.
12:49I can't have children!
12:59Number 19.
13:00Mary Poppins.
13:01Disney has given us
13:02plenty of iconic catchphrases,
13:04but few roll off the tongue
13:05or stick in your brain
13:07quite like supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
13:10The original Mary Poppins
13:11showed us how useful
13:12that word could be,
13:13but this sketch finds
13:14one very awkward definition
13:16that Julie Andrews
13:17definitely did not cover.
13:18If you must know,
13:22supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
13:23is a disease of the liver.
13:26It's very rare
13:28and extremely painful.
13:30Anne Hathaway channels
13:31her inner Mary with charm,
13:32poise,
13:33and a surprisingly chipper demeanor.
13:35Meanwhile,
13:36Bill Hader makes the perfect Bert,
13:38especially as he marches
13:39his one-man band over to Mary
13:40for something far more bitter
13:42than a spoonful of sugar.
13:43We just learned a new word,
13:47supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
13:47Oh, how delightful.
13:49It's a disease of the liver.
13:50Mary Poppins has it.
13:51It's spread amongst grown-ups.
13:55We're not saying
13:56this is the Mary Poppins remake we want,
13:58but if it ever happens,
13:59Hathaway and Hader
14:00are practically perfect in every way.
14:02Well, I'm a very unusual nanny.
14:07I guess I'm in pretty serious denial.
14:14Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
14:16Number 18.
14:17Disney Channel
14:18Middle School Kids Inspire Marvin
14:20Disney Channel middle schoolers
14:22might not know algebra
14:23or how to form a compound sentence,
14:24but they do know the power
14:26of positive thinking.
14:27Hey, maybe if Marvin used positive thinking,
14:29he could walk.
14:29Yeah!
14:31I don't know, you guys.
14:33I have a broken knee.
14:35Well, you'll never know
14:36if you don't try.
14:37You know, you're absolutely right.
14:39Okay, help me out of this wheelchair.
14:42Still, even in their world,
14:44optimism can't heal a broken bone.
14:45In this sketch,
14:46poor Marvin ends up flattened,
14:48literally,
14:49after his school's
14:50moral of the day approach
14:51turns into a lesson in pain.
14:53His growing frustration
14:54and repeated pleas
14:55to be left alone
14:56are absolutely hilarious.
14:57What did you think about
14:58Mr. Conklin's
14:59Anything is Possible lecture today?
15:02It was good.
15:04I mean, most things are possible
15:06within reason.
15:07If you grew up on Disney Channel,
15:08you will instantly recognize
15:10the over-the-top life lessons,
15:12dramatic hallway showdowns,
15:13and exaggerated earnestness.
15:15Plus,
15:16Kenan's reactions
15:17every time his classmates
15:18push him too far
15:19are so perfectly overblown.
15:20It's almost shocking
15:22that the only thing that broke
15:23was Marvin's knee.
15:24My knee is broken!
15:27Where's the common sense?
15:29Go away!
15:31Marvin!
15:33Number 17.
15:34Lion King Auditions
15:36Lin-Manuel Miranda?
15:37Hakuna Matata
15:38and my medulla oblongata
15:40I only got one shotta
15:41and they killed my father.
15:43Two years after giving us
15:44a behind-the-scenes look
15:45at the auditions
15:46for Star Wars The Force Awakens,
15:48SNL did something similar
15:49for the Lion King remake.
15:50The sketch provides a platform
15:52for the cast
15:52to share their best impressions,
15:53while also putting
15:54a bizarre spin
15:55on an animated classic.
15:57Today's guest,
15:58Simba!
16:00Most of these
16:01potential casting choices
16:02are pretty out there,
16:04such as Nick Offerman
16:05as a hyena,
16:06Eminem as Simba,
16:07and Mary J. Blige
16:08as Pumbaa.
16:09Eh mama,
16:10eh power,
16:11eh mama,
16:13eh power.
16:13At the same time,
16:14we could actually imagine
16:15some of these actors
16:16in a Lion King remake.
16:18Oprah as Rafiki, anyone?
16:19Cecily Strong's
16:20impersonation makes us wish
16:21that Lin-Manuel Miranda
16:23had been in the movie.
16:24In the end, though,
16:25only John Oliver Izazu
16:26made the cut.
16:27Don't do that
16:28to your mom, Simba!
16:30And now, this.
16:31Sorry, James Corden.
16:33Simba, everybody!
16:34Number 16,
16:35Below the Waves.
16:37Sebastian in The Little Mermaid
16:38claims life is better
16:39under the sea
16:40because the human world
16:41is a mess.
16:42And sure,
16:43he's not wrong,
16:44but he also forgets
16:45to mention that humans
16:45tend to dump their messes
16:47into the sea.
16:58That's where this sketch
16:59takes a hilariously dark turn.
17:01Kenan Thompson's Krabby
17:02is the only one
17:03who's, well,
17:04crabby about it
17:05while everyone else
17:05swims along
17:06like nothing's wrong.
17:07Now get Obama off of me.
17:09I mean Osama.
17:10I keep doing that.
17:12It's just one letter.
17:13Pretty weird, right?
17:17The sketch pokes fun at American nationalism, conspiracy theorists, and misplaced optimism,
17:23all while Tina Fey's mermaid princess stays sweet as she adds her own commentary.
17:27Something tells us that this mermaid still isn't totally convinced that life under the sea is better.
17:32Below the waves, below the waves, we always stand and stand with the salmon, below the waves.
17:43Number 15. Hawkeye disappoints the Avengers.
17:46If you could have any Avengers weapon, what would you pick?
17:49Thor's hammer? Cap's shield? Iron Man's entire suit? Hawkeye's bow and arrow?
17:54There goes the tumbleweed.
17:55How many arrows did you bring?
17:57All of them, like 11.
17:5911?
18:0011? There are 100,000 aliens out there.
18:04And I killed 11 of them. You're welcome.
18:06Yeah, this sketch taps into what we were all thinking.
18:09Hawkeye definitely drew the short straw.
18:11At least he's got an endless supply of arrows, right?
18:14Well...
18:15Take the shot, Hawkeye.
18:16He's out of arrows.
18:17Oh, come on, Hunger Games!
18:19What are you doing?
18:22Just pull arrows out of the aliens you already shot, Katniss.
18:25The casting is spot on, from Bill Hader as Thor to Jason Sudeikis as Iron Man.
18:29But it's Jeremy Renner reprising his role and leaning into the joke that really pulls it together.
18:35We love a superhero who can laugh at himself.
18:37And sure, he might be out of arrows, but that doesn't mean he can't still help save the day.
18:46Great work, Hawkeye.
18:49Couldn't have done it without... you couldn't have done it without me.
18:51Number 14. Lando's Summit
18:53Here's another sketch where the actual actor reprises his role, this time to ask a very important question.
18:59Where all... where the hell are all the black people in space?
19:04For a while, I thought it was me, the only one.
19:07But now I see before me all the black humans in the galaxy.
19:13Donald Glover returns as Lando Calrissian to host the first-ever Galactic Summit for All Black Humans,
19:19only to discover there are, like, four of them.
19:21In a galaxy full of alien species, this sketch hilariously points out what fans have noticed for years.
19:27There aren't exactly a ton of black people in space.
19:29I held out hope that there was a black human planet somewhere, but I guess it's just us.
19:34Lots of lizard men wearing vests.
19:37Just four black people, though.
19:38It's a smart, sharp take on the franchise's diversity problem.
19:41And Glover delivers it with perfect wit and credibility.
19:44Who better to call it out than someone who's literally been there?
19:47The Force is funny.
19:48And also kind of right.
19:50The following activities have been canceled due to low attendance.
19:54Everything except meals.
19:57Does that include the Thousand Men March?
20:03What you think, dude?
20:04Number 13. Cinderella's Slipper
20:06The original Cinderella already asks us to believe a glass slipper fits exactly one woman in the whole kingdom.
20:13But this sketch takes that logic and says,
20:15what if the shoe didn't even belong to a woman?
20:17Yep, it gets weirder.
20:18So then who has a foot this small?
20:21I does.
20:23I'm sorry.
20:25I does.
20:26This shoe is yours.
20:28Oh, it definitely does.
20:30Enter Aidy Bryant as Mausolina.
20:32And her totally blasé attitude as the prince slowly pieces together some very fuzzy memories from the Night of the
20:38Ball.
20:39The premise is completely ridiculous, but Aidy's delivery is just magic.
20:43Yeah, he dunked me in a glass of champagne and I was ready to rock.
20:48No, no, I remember it was a woman and she ran away and her carriage turned into a pumpkin.
20:53We've had a lot of questions about fairy tales over the years, but this one never even occurred to us
20:57until now.
20:58And we thought Disney logic was a bit of a stretch before.
21:00It's okay, it's probably more like 12 babies, but don't worry, I'll eat a couple of them.
21:06Wait, that means those rat babies will be princes someday.
21:12SNL has a habit of ruining the innocence of The Little Mermaid, and we love them for it.
21:29As intriguing as that premise was, we're focusing on a different angle today.
21:33You know how she trades her voice for legs in the original tale?
21:36Well, maybe she wouldn't have had to if she had just hit Ursula with some Nikki, Kesha, or Britney.
21:40Hot damn teen dress. If you're one of us, then roll with us,
21:44because we make the hipsters fall in love when we got our hot pants on and death.
21:48Anna Kendrick plays Ariel, who sings some modern bangers that, let's just say, leave Ursula totally unimpressed.
21:55You, you, you, I. You, you, you, I.
21:58Woman, I, the woman, I, the woman, I, the lady.
22:02What? I mean, that is not a voice.
22:06Flounder and Sebastian also look like they would cover their ears if they could.
22:09It is chaotic, catchy, and totally unhinged.
22:12If Ariel had swum down this route, she could have turned the tide on what happened next.
22:17Instead of your voice, I'll just take his.
22:21Who, me? But I am just a deep-sea crab.
22:24What if you say so?
22:27Well, woman, the way the time goes, I wanna be keeping you warm.
22:30I got the right thing for sure that she'll tell you from the storm.
22:34Number 11. Peter Pan.
22:36Who knew Jim Parsons as Peter Pan was the casting we didn't know we needed?
22:40But the real scene-stealer here is Tonker Bell.
22:43That's right, Tonker Bell.
22:45I know that Tonk may seem a little odd.
22:48Okay, me odd?
22:50Y'all are the ones who are odd.
22:52I mean, you kids got a nice-ass house,
22:54and all your beds in one room.
22:56That is not what's up, and you just got Tonked.
22:59This isn't a dainty fairy.
23:01If you thought Tinker Bell had sass, buckle up.
23:04Tonk is from the rough side of Neverland.
23:06She's loud and jaded and has definitely seen some stuff.
23:09With a zero-sparkle attitude, she absolutely shatters the Disney illusion.
23:14You're basically wearing the same thing as me, Tonk.
23:16Okay, Peter, you burned me right back.
23:19So you went ahead and Tonked the Tonker.
23:22Now you have my respect.
23:23That's very cool.
23:25She seems like someone who's been kicked out after Last Call
23:27and stumbled over to Neverland to keep the party going.
23:3080s total commitment makes it hilarious,
23:32and we love how it pokes fun at how ridiculous
23:35these perfect sanitized fantasy worlds can be.
23:37I just ate a hamburger, so I cannot fly right now, okay?
23:42And FYI, it was a human-sized hamburger,
23:45so I just sat in the middle and then ate around me till it was gone.
23:49Number 10, Aladdin.
23:50Aladdin is another of those Disney classics that SNL loves to skewer,
23:54especially those magic carpet rides.
23:56We get to see the budding couple go from discussing Jasmine's
23:59cave of wonders to how married life is 10 years in.
24:02The spark is gone.
24:06How did we let things get so bad?
24:10We'd love to call it quits, but we have kids.
24:14But perhaps one of their funniest magic carpet adventures
24:17shows that while it might be romantic,
24:19it's not always the shining, shimmering, splendid experience Aladdin promised.
24:24Jasmine, you're different.
24:26Do you like me?
24:28Yes, I do.
24:29I'm sorry.
24:30Some kind of fat bird just hit my mouth.
24:33I need a minute.
24:34In fact, Jasmine does get a new point of view of the world,
24:37but fantastic it is not.
24:39Turns out air travel has a lot more turbulence than you might expect.
24:43We think Jasmine might opt for a night in the palace for their next date.
24:46A whole new world.
24:48That's rough.
24:50That's where we'll be.
24:52I'm drenched and you know what?
24:53A wondrous place.
24:56A mama horny's.
24:59For you and me.
25:04Number nine.
25:05You think I'm the beast?
25:07Kristen Wiig does an impeccable job playing the perfectly sweet princess,
25:10until she learns that she and the beast are singing a very different song.
25:14The curse will be broken, and you can stop being a beast.
25:22You think I'm the beast?
25:25Yeah, we were just singing about it.
25:27What makes this sketch so funny is how it flips the fairy tale's core message,
25:31beauty is on the inside, into a full-blown existential crisis.
25:35Suddenly, the whole inner beauty trope collapses like an undercooked souffle.
25:39You know, you're the one who started throwing beasts around.
25:43I'd say you're like a six.
25:48A six?
25:49In my village, I am considered a great beauty.
25:52Belle just can't fathom a world where she isn't the most beautiful woman around,
25:55but as she learns, beauty comes in many forms.
25:58She just doesn't have the ass, as the castle's residents are more drawn to.
26:02Well, they do say beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
26:05Then why don't you all just go hook up with her?
26:08Well, we do. All the time.
26:13Why do you think she lives here with us?
26:15Have you ever seen any of us drink tea?
26:18Okay. Okay, freaks, I'm leaving.
26:22Number 8. High School Musical 4.
26:24He graduated last year, and now he's back from his first year of college.
26:28Troy Bolton!
26:30It's only a matter of time until Disney makes High School Musical 4.
26:33For now, however, we have this biting sketch with Zac Efron reprising his role as Troy Bolton.
26:38We also get to see Casey Wilson do a surprisingly pitch-perfect Miss Darbus impression.
26:43But I'm not here to talk about last year.
26:46I'm here to talk about what happens after you leave East High.
26:50Do you think this is a good idea, Troy?
26:52Back off.
26:52Picking up a year after Troy's first year of college,
26:56the Wildcat has an unfortunate reality check for the graduating seniors.
26:59East High is apparently the only school where people sporadically break out into expertly choreographed musical numbers.
27:05I was nervous, but excited.
27:07So I started singing a song called Nervous But Excited.
27:13People just stared at me!
27:15This comes as a shock to the students,
27:17who have committed much of their education to singing songs while learning rather obvious life lessons.
27:22What's the capital of Texas?
27:25Uh, Texas City?
27:28Texas Town.
27:29Yeah.
27:29It's a sketch that will ruin your childhood in the best way possible,
27:33complete with an unfrozen Walt Disney.
27:35Disney characters aren't supposed to grow up.
27:38Just ask Mickey Mouse or Lindsay Lohan.
27:42Number 7.
27:42Black Widow Trailer.
27:43Marvel gets women.
27:46Coming in 2016.
27:48Marvel eventually greenlit a standalone Black Widow movie.
27:51But only after years of everyone asking when Natasha Romanoff would take center stage,
27:55including SNL.
27:57When Scarlett Johansson hosted in 2015,
27:59SNL gave Natasha a chance to shine.
28:01Albeit, not in the action movie we were hoping for.
28:04Instead, Natasha is settled with a cheesy romantic comedy.
28:07The only thing missing in Black Widow's life...
28:10Such a klutz.
28:11...was love.
28:13Hey, I'm Ultron.
28:16Black Widow.
28:17This trailer checks off all the classic rom-com cliches,
28:21from Natasha running in high heels,
28:22to her sassy boss,
28:24to a meet-cute with Ultron.
28:26At least Natasha finally gets a happy ending with Bruce Banner.
28:28For Black Widow, falling in love can be hard,
28:32but it can also be incredible.
28:35As silly as it is,
28:37the sketch also makes smart commentary on Hollywood's reputation
28:40for botching female-led superhero movies.
28:42Black Widow.
28:43Age of me.
28:45Marvel.
28:46We know girls.
28:48Honestly, we'd gladly take this fake Black Widow movie
28:51over Catwoman's cinematic solo outing.
28:57Number 6.
28:58Disney Channel Acting School.
29:00Call today!
29:01Parents' permission, not needed.
29:03Just as Zac Efron poked fun at his Disney Channel roots,
29:06Miley Cyrus established in this sketch
29:08that her Hannah Montana days are long over.
29:10Disney Channel acting is its own art form.
29:13And to master it,
29:14you're gonna need a special set of tools.
29:16Paired with Raven-Symoné,
29:17played by Kenan Thompson,
29:18Cyrus gives aspiring child stars a few acting tips
29:21that'll take them far on the Disney Channel.
29:24Cyrus pulls no punches,
29:26pointing out how characters on Disney sitcoms
29:28tend to scream their lines,
29:30disrespect adults,
29:31and wear over-the-top clothing.
29:32So you want to make sure your clothes
29:34are as loud and crazy as you're acting?
29:36I'm auditioning for Wizards of Waverly Place.
29:38What should I wear?
29:39How about a bright pink hoodie
29:40with a big-ass daisy over it?
29:42You might not have picked up
29:43on a lot of these tropes growing up.
29:45After watching this sketch, though,
29:46you will never be able to ignore them again.
29:49Making the sketch even funnier,
29:50Thompson technically comes from a Disney background as well,
29:53having made his film debut in D2,
29:55The Mighty Ducks.
29:56All right, I'd buy some more.
29:58Man, my little brother can score on these guys.
30:00Number 5.
30:01Frozen 2
30:02And you can also order the Frozen 2 DVD,
30:04including deleted scenes like this one.
30:07Frozen 2 was another huge hit for Disney,
30:09but fans couldn't help zeroing in on one icy detail.
30:13Elsa didn't have a prince,
30:14and that got people talking.
30:16In a series of deleted scenes,
30:18Elsa, played by Kate McKinnon,
30:19finds herself lost in the Enchanted Forest.
30:22Elsa is lost in more ways than one,
30:24as she struggles to confront her sexuality.
30:26This Enchanted Forest is so disorienting.
30:28It sure is.
30:29I don't know whether we're heading north, south, gay, or west.
30:32Did you say gay?
30:35No!
30:36For the many fans who want Disney to give Elsa a girlfriend,
30:39this sketch is easy to get on board with.
30:42The film was progressive in other respects,
30:43but as far as the SNL writers are concerned,
30:46there's still a problem with diversity.
30:47The lack of any romantic interest doesn't bother me anyway.
30:50Elsa takes issue with the movie's complicated plot as well.
30:53Wherever you stand on these debates,
30:55we can see why Olaf's extra carrot
30:57was left on the cutting room floor.
30:59Uh, hey Olaf, what's that second carrot about?
31:02Number 4, Bambi 2002.
31:04From the mid-90s to the late 2000s,
31:07Disney had a reputation for pumping out straight-to-video sequels
31:10to their animated classics.
31:11Many of them fell short of their predecessors,
31:13to put it mildly.
31:14In this TV Funhouse segment,
31:16we're given Bambi 2002,
31:18a modernized take on the timeless Disney film.
31:20Bambi and the gang are back in business,
31:23and the forest has never been more fun.
31:26Being a 2002 animated feature,
31:28the new cool Bambi is naturally all about bullet time and hip-hop.
31:32There's also a handful of pointless celebrity cameos
31:34from the New York Yankees and Jared Fogle.
31:37Yeah, that aged great.
31:38Bambi, if I can lose weight,
31:41you can get those terrorists.
31:42Aside from being a priceless Disney send-up,
31:45the sketch is like a time capsule
31:46of early 2000s pop culture references.
31:48Bambi 2002 may be back in the Disney vault,
31:51but there's always the live-action Dwayne Johnson remake.
31:54Who the hell are you?
32:00A Bambi.
32:02Number 3.
32:03Undercover Boss, Starkiller Base.
32:05You get so caught up in restoring the galaxy
32:07to its rightful state
32:08that you miss what's going on behind the scenes.
32:11I'm looking forward to having some real talk
32:15with some real folks.
32:16In the Star Wars sequel trilogy,
32:18Adam Driver demonstrated how menacing he can be as Kylo Ren.
32:22Even while reprising the character on SNL,
32:24Driver managed to maintain a straight face
32:26and a domineering demeanor.
32:28Rule everything?
32:29That's impressive.
32:30I admire the guy.
32:31Yes.
32:32Exactly.
32:33Exactly.
32:33It's truly a testament to his gifts
32:35as both a dramatic and comedic actor.
32:37Going undercover at Starkiller Base,
32:39Ben, aka Matt,
32:40has a hard time keeping his cool
32:42and his identity under wraps.
32:43I'm 90% sure Matt is Kylo Ren.
32:47He does befriend a lieutenant named Zack,
32:49although being responsible for Zack's son's death
32:52kind of puts a damper on things.
32:53The First Order leader is finally pushed over the edge
32:56when one stormtrooper laughs at the idea
32:58of Ren having an eight-pack.
32:59Your friend's a liar, man.
33:00Kylo Ren is a punk bitch.
33:02That guy looks like he weighs 30 pounds
33:03silk and wet underneath that little black dress.
33:09Tim?
33:10Tim!
33:11Oh no, he's choking on food.
33:12Huh.
33:13We wonder if that inspired Rian Johnson
33:14when he made The Last Jedi.
33:16Number 2.
33:17Disney Housewives.
33:18It's the real housewives of Disney.
33:21The Disney princess brand meets the real housewives.
33:24It's a combination that's guaranteed to spin comedic gold.
33:26Throw in the ladies of SNL
33:28and you can't possibly go wrong.
33:29The casting is mostly dead-on
33:31with Vanessa Bayer as Snow White,
33:33Abby Elliott as Belle,
33:34and Kristen Wiig as a monumentally drunk Cinderella.
33:39Whatever.
33:40Ironically, Nassim Pedrad plays Jasmine
33:42and would later portray her handmaiden in the Aladdin remake.
33:45A handsome prince wants to marry you.
33:48Oh, when will life get easier?
33:49Unfortunately for Jasmine here,
33:51Abu ends up on her dinner plate
33:53and Iago ends up in her bed.
33:55I thought it was Aladdin.
33:57He was mimicking his voice.
34:01The drama only escalates
34:03when a catty Prince Charming shows up
34:04and Belle breaks out her boombox.
34:06Tears are shed,
34:07punches are thrown,
34:08and hair is pulled.
34:10But Lindsay Lohan's Rapunzel
34:11thankfully has plenty to go around.
34:13I'm gonna rip this fake-ass weave off your head!
34:16Here comes Midnight F***!
34:19Before we unveil our top pick,
34:21here are some honorable mentions.
34:23Weekend Update.
34:24Black Ariel on Disney's live-action
34:26The Little Mermaid remake.
34:27When live-action gets too realistic
34:29for anyone's liking.
34:30Sea levels are rising.
34:32Salmon are dying.
34:34Good!
34:35Salmon are racist.
34:37Have you ever talked to one?
34:38Star Wars The Force Awakens teaser.
34:40From a galaxy much farther away from our own.
34:43I need to find Luke Skywalker.
34:46All right.
34:48Wait, what?
34:49Can you help me find Luke Skywalker?
34:51Oh, um...
34:52I'll take the early bird special.
34:54The Princess and the Curse.
34:56What happens when you learn
34:57the terms and conditions of the curse?
34:59I become...
35:02me...
35:03but 15 pounds heavier.
35:05Oh.
35:08I'm so relieved to hear you don't care.
35:11Uh-huh.
35:11Weekend Update.
35:12Scrooge McDuck.
35:13Looks like being ultra-rich
35:15isn't all it's quacked up to be.
35:16My investment strategy
35:17has always been very simple.
35:19Step one.
35:20Convert all money into gold coins.
35:23Step two.
35:24Put all the coins into a pile.
35:26Step three.
35:27Swim around in those coins.

35:55Journey to the Disney Vault.
35:57I wish we could live in the Disney Vault.
36:01A successor of sorts to Bambi 2002,
36:04this TV Funhouse segment lists off
36:06a slew of other Disney sequels
36:07that we wish we could see in their entirety.
36:09Sadly, they're all in the Disney Vault,
36:11as are two children and their pal Mickey.
36:14Wow, what's in here?
36:16Oh, you don't need to see that.
36:19Disney!
36:21I told you not to look.
36:23The kids quickly find, however,
36:24that Disney has a few skeletons
36:26and frozen heads in the closet.
36:28Journey to the Disney Vault is not only hilarious,
36:31it's also surprisingly educational.
36:33Wait, Disney ratted out animators
36:36for being communists?
36:37While many of us are familiar
36:39with Song of the South's infamous legacy,
36:41this sketch also touches upon Walt's testimony
36:43before the House Un-American Activities Committee,
36:45the Disney company's abandoned plans
36:47to build an American history theme park,
36:49and the Jim Henson deal that almost was.
36:51Jim Henson!
36:53He wouldn't sell!
36:55He wouldn't sell!
36:57Good thing that Scar is there
36:58to keep this all confidential.
37:00You children know too much.
37:01You must stay in the Disney Vault forever.
37:05No!
37:06Are there any other Disney SNL parodies
37:08you can think of?
37:09Let us know in the comments.
37:10Let us know in the comments.
37:11Let us know in the comments.
