I have such a huge respect for actors who aren’t afraid to make fun or parody themselves. And Adam knocked or out of the park with this sketch

Best part is that he must act in two layers: first as Kylo Ren and then be Matt acted by Kylo Ren and original character must be identifiable to viewer. He certainly has skill.

Well it is almost a given when an actor or many celebrities host SNL there will be a parody skit of their last movie role or a past one or their regular life.

hahahahahaa

This is why I can’t hate on SNL whenever they get political (Trump bad agenda) I think of the skits and the host who can still have a good time hoisting Ryan Goslin, Adam Driver, James Franco, Drake, etc

@VK's ASDgaming inception in some way lol

I would genuinely love a Star Wars comedy series about imperial officers and stormtroopers, showing us their daily lives in the galactic empire 😂 Bonus points if it's done in a mockumentary style

You must have seen the Robot Chicken sketches. Poor Papa Palpatine, just trying to keep an Empire running.

There was a late 90’s spoof of both Cops & Star Wars called TROOPS. It shows storm troopers patrolling Tatooine and interacting with Droids, Jawas and Luke’s aunt & uncle. It’s also hilarious & here on YT.

If you reskin the office with Star Wars that’s the whole show

A Hogans Heroes of the Star Wars Universe

So it can embarrassingly fail like Star Trek: Below Decks? Star Wars has had enough embarrassments lately.

4:29 awww, it's so sweet that Kylo allowed his superior officer to reunite with his son once again 🤧😌

😂😂😂

LMFAO

But why did he kill that guy that praised him and not the stormtrooper guy that spoke ill of him?

@Diane Heriot trash compactor

The rainbow came

Say what you want about SNL, but this has to be one of the funniest skits they have done in 25+ years

"SNL hasn't been funny since [Insert year I was 12-15]"

Dude, SNL is the way its always been.

Now, I'm not saying you're gay, but that skit was indeed good.

​@Arthur Pietro Garcia no that's an extremely false statement lol That's how we know you aren't even close to being old enough to remember when SNL was actually consistently funny and wasn't just a bunch of weird unfunny woke BS

@Damon Drivermy Guy, every single generation has the SNL syndrome, where the one they watched as teens are the best one, If I went back to my favourite era and watched a random set of episodes, I would probably find some stinkers, same If you do It to your favourite era.

This is one of the best SNL skits.

Chris Farleys doen by the river is better

Is it? IS IT??!

@Samuel Crowe No, it isn't.

@Samuel Crowe Well Chris was one of the all time great comedians though, so it's expected for him to have more than a few sketches better than this. But I will still say this is in the top 5 since 2000.

I really love this skit I always come back to it

Kylo actually is a very impressive boss. He carried not only The First Order, but the entire Sequel Trilogy on his back.

As someone who's not an obsessed fan with Star Wars like some others are, I agree. He had one of the best character arches in the whole series and films would've sucked with anyone else in the role.

@Ashley B. is me As someone that is an obsessed fan, I agree lol

no one carried the sequel disney pretty much destroyed its potential

@YeahL Okay.

I love how he's staying in character while staying in character

He's a dude playing the dude, disguised as another dude!!

Chi Yan>What do you mean, ‘you people?’

Ha Nice hotel on lisätty tallennetut-luetteloosi on Iceboard on Iceboard on Iceboard on Iceboard on Iceboard on Iceboard

@Chi Yan dude-ception?

@CJ Col What do YOU mean "you people"?

I love that the Star Wars fandom saw this sketch and went, "Yes. Matt is canon now."

The battlefront 2 devs:he is indeed

I've never seen such a perfect snl skit. Adam Driver makes everything better

They actually made the technician uniforms canon. I love this. And the gag about Kylo Ren shirt off was even before The Last Jedi scene

It’s supposed to make him sound pathetic and insecure but it turns out he really was shredded.

I love the little laughs at "Sorry about that" and "Really struck a nerve with me" because the audience all knows what's coming just by the character and the delivery. But we still die laughing at "especially since I'm the one that killed him." This skit is a masterclass in comedy.

I agree 200%

"Oh no, he's choking on food" I freaking lost it here

Especially when he didn't hide the fact he was force choking him in front of everyone.

Forget the movies, they should just make an entire Netflix series out of this.

Honestly, a Disney+ comedy about the lives of generic Star Wars characters could be really funny. There are so many factions that it could be based on.

@Commenting Commenter I think that's why I liked the Robot Chicken Star Wars stuff so much, the goons in the star wars universe can get into some funny situations with the right writers

Now I feel like everything should have their own version of The Office

Jeremy I would watched this all day

I wish I could forget the movies

"Sorry I killed your son!" -Kylo Me: *holding in the laughter*

don't forget the exclamation point in that sentence!

@Driftwood there I fixed it :]

And the : (

“I’m 90% sure Matt is Kylo Ren” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Watched that bit just as I scrolled past your comment 🤣

People usually go to Marriage Story when they exemplify Adam Driver's incredible acting skills. And even though we all know he was by far the best part of the sequels, there's no doubt in my mind that _this_ is what really shows how great an actor he is. He can bring a character so dramatic and torn to a whole different genre without losing anything from his near-perfect physical and emotional performance while still being comedic, the exact opposite of the original portrayal. That simple thumbs up is so well thought and performed to be Kylo's attempt at social skills. What an actor.

I watch this every few months, laugh every time, and think it's one of the best Star Wars related things to have come out in two decades.

“I haven’t had my muffin yet, Matt.” Every skit she’s in is comedy gold!

I think you mean he

As long as she doesn’t eat Peter then I enjoy her moments.

@gorginhanson um what

I like how Adam driver commits to the role even when he is a comedy sketch

Yeah honestly he's right up there with Zac Efron.. a guy i wouldn't expect to be funny but can actually pull it off.

@Hypeman 18 I want to see him in even more comedy roles after this and the dead dont die

He kinda already was in the movies.

@Hypeman 18 He literally did comedy before star wars

Check out his oil baron sketch

"Here let me go see if I can find it I'll show it to you!" *Barely walks offscreen and immediately returns* "Look I found Kylo Ren's lightsaber!" Easily the funniest moment for me 😂😂😂

“Dude matt straight up sucks” gets me every single time

Who’s here after killing Rick the Door Technician?

When he says " can you please stop yelling at me you're starting to stress me out" is like when your dad asks you to hold a flash light while he fixes something😂

thats my favorite line of the sketch but only cuz he says "can you please stop yelling me" without the "at" lol kills me everytime

@Connor Tracey The little slip up makes it better. It adds to the idea of him being stressed out and messing up his speech as a result.

"Really struck a nerve with me... especially since I'm the one who killed him." 😂 2:35

Adam Driver is very underrated as a comedian. He’s actually very humorous with his deadpan style of comedy.

Yeah it really sucks that he's now stuck with Rise of Skywalker on his resume, thanks J.J.Abrams and Disney >:/

@Terry Jones Movie still made like a billion dollars, regardless of quality they’re gonna want the actor for how much cash it made.

@Toni Odejimi Good to know he's got that silver lining going for him, considering....

He’s got that marine veteran sense of humor

@Toni Odejimi "Watch me making a billion dollars for a movie by having no idea what I'm doing and throwing in the name 'Star Wars'." ~ J.J. Abrams and Rian Johnson

I come back to this when I need to remember why I love life. And Adam Driver. Never disappoints.

heart doesnt need motivation to keep beating.. life has a mind ofnits own.. i hope u are well, Doris

one of the best SNL skits of all time. Up there with Sean Connery Jeopardy.

The best? PAPYRUS!

There's also Tom Hanks Black Jeopardy.

Also the VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!!!!

And more cowbell

“Oh no, he’s choking on food.” kills me every single time. 😂😂😂

Adam Driver did a fantastic job. No doubt he's a good actor.

This was actually super funny, the films weren't the best but they did have a really good cast. I really enjoyed Adam as Kylo I think he did a great job

Gotta love how Adam Driver can parody Kylo Ren while staying in character as Kylo Ren.

This is the way

@Davin Destroyer this is the way

@Greasy ?

What character? Kylo Ren didn't have any character to begin with.

5 years later and this is still funny 😂

now 7 years and it’s still funny

I love how he pretends to casually go and find his lightsaber as if some low-level technician would just find it laying around. Definitely doesn't blow his cover or anything 🤣

In 6 minutes they made Kylo better than 3 movies totaling over 5.5 hours.

3:41 *Tim choking* “Tim?” “TIM!?” “oh no, hes choking on food.” I love how not worried matt is.

Tim*

I love that they referenced this in Jedi: Survivor with Rick The Door Technician

"dude Matt straight up sucks" has always been my favorite starwars line

It is really hilarious. “Oh, no, he’s choking on food!”

I can NOT watching that part without waking up my entire apartment build. His face breaks me hahahahaha hahahahaha

“Kylo Ren is a plump bitch”

Hahaha same😂😂😂

1000th like cool

Adam Driver always makes me laugh.

I love how committed Adam is as Kylo, even in a parody

I like how the storm troopers in the background just chilling and watching him get choked during the 8 pack scene like it's a regular thing on the job they see everyday 🤣😂

*Love how he sounded like his dad while working on the calcinator* 😂

I love the idea of a random guy leaving a room for all of 3 seconds and coming back with a sith lord's lightsaber and saying look at it

Loll

I know!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Not Sith Lord

Kylo is known to be a good guy though who loves to let his workers loan his lightsaber

@Simen Pedersen this sounds dirty as shit

“I haven’t had my MUFFIN yet MATT.” The delivery KILLED me dude 😂

I have watched this over 10 times and it's still the best skit I have ever seen

"Hearing about Zack's son really struck a nerve with me..." *"Especially because I was the one who killed him"*

I have seen him in a couple of drama movies and he is REALLY good. After seeing this, I am even more impressed. He's so dang funny as Matt. 😆

I’m shocked they actually referenced this in Jedi Survivor

He's such a good actor he can act while acting and pull it off

And now he's Oscar nominated.

Mersenne Prime hope he’s a Oscar winner

His face confuses me. At a first glance he should look ugly. His face is long and unbalanced, just a mess. But he's actually very handsome when you look at him.

@Stannis The Mannis You summed up how I felt about him as watching ep IX. I don't like his facials, but still, I find him attractive wtf.

His American accent attempt is awful.

man, its hard for a skit to be funny from the beginning to end but this one... my dude, this is kills every single time

Adam Driver is always a really good host.

that officer played his cards perfectly, knew matt was kylo from the start and got on his good side

I’m so glad we got a sequel to this. I knew viewing Adam Driver’s second SNL hosting was worth it when it was live way back then. 😂

I would just love to see more of Bobby and Adam interacting 😂

I love how dedicated he is to being Kylo even though it’s just a parody skit.

True! He didn’t hold back on any of the searing evil!! And he didn’t make fun of the Kylo character or lessen it in any way!

Mr7Reality it was amazing

Never gets old.

This guy is better as parody of Kylo Ren than as Kylo Ren himself.

This is the best thing to come out of the sequel trilogy

I can't stop laughing, I can imagine Kylo Ren actually doing this. He was super insecure in the movie too. lmao funny omigod

Still one of my favorite snl skits

No matter what you think of the sequels, Adam Driver is just pure gold. EDIT: Thank you so much for all the likes and comments everyone. May the force be with you, always.

Niday yeah, it’s a shame they game him absolute shit in the actual Star Wars movies

DerangedEmu at least he’s good in the games usually

DerangedEmu He wasn’t all that bad in the new one. I bet it JJ did TLJ he’s development would’ve been way better

Niday facts

No doubt Adam Driver is a great actor. I've seen his other movies. It's really Disney's fault. They shouldn't have changed the SW EU. I would have loved to see him as Darth Caedus instead of Kylo Ren.

Adam Driver being part of this would have already made this a good video, but this is also amazingly hilarious

never gets old

i remember seeing this when it came back and i still rewatch this. love this skit so much!!!!

He did such a great job with this....he's hilarious 😂🤣🤣 The card he gave him lol

"hearing that he lost his son really struck a nerve with me" "especially since im the one who killed him" that made me laugh so hard

That really made me laugh so hard!!

AtlantisXx that made me laugh

AtlantisXx yeah we know we watched the video you like bate

I think we watched the same video babe

Im underaged

this was my fav skit even before i had started to watch star wars. today i watched ep 7 and i can finally appreciate this skit! i was surprised how this was true to the character lol

As a star wars fan, i can confirm this is cannon

3:28 i think the funniest part of this is Kylo Ren the character actually took that to heart, because in the next movie he was shredded so dude probably hit the gym like crazy 🤣 it's the little things that Adam Driver does that shows he's a great actor. He's the only redeemable part of the sequels imo

"I ran into Kylo Ren in the bathroom'" idk why but gets me every time.

Still more character development than the actual movies.

"Looks poorly made like a little kid made it." “THEN YOU DON'T HAVE TO LOOK AT IT ANYMORE!!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂

Best part lol

Well........it does! Barely a lightsaber at all!

freddybeer sarcasm?

@Eva Forsberg - Not at all! Lol!

gahhh

Kylo Ren is such a sweet ruler, he even remembers all the children of the officers he killed in anger.

This was a real surprise, an SNL skit that was actually funny, on target, and re-watchable.

It's hard imagining one of star wars big villain's as funny, but I've seen a lot of his other SNL stuff, the guy is funny!!!! A rare trait in the star wars universe where most all the actors are basically one dimensional

This never gets old. LOL

Rick the door technician would be proud

This literally killed me. I can’t stop watching Adam driver skits

This figuratively killed me. Because I posted this.

Uganda Knuckles the funerals mondaaaaaay

Same

@Am na he's hot. I'm not even gay.

GOD I LOVED THIS SO MUCH

“Oh no, he’s choking on food.” 💀 Had me dying

In every single one of those undercover bosses there's always some guy with a sob story. I'm glad that imperial officer got a rainbow greeting card.

I would love a Kylo Ren / 'Matt' the Radar Technician series.

The way he instantly pulled out his lightsaber without even pretending to go to retrieve it took me out omg

This is, to date one of the funniest SNL sketches ever

I mean yeah its funny but funniest ever?? I dont think its even close

Dan Neville He said “one of the funniest” doorknob.

@Dan Neville don't you understand what one of the funniest means?

that's not saying a lot

Dan Neville wow not all the lights are on in the attic huh???

I would love a Star Wars spoof where they try to mimic the real day to day military life using the stormtroopers and officers by having them do safety briefs and all the other dumb shit we do 😂

Disney+ needs to make an actual series of Matt the Radar Technician.

I died at 'Matt Straight up sucks!' 🤣🤣🤣

Can Lorne Michaels just offer Adam Driver a cast member spot already??

I love undercover boss 😂

"Dude, Matt straight up *sucks.* "  This is one of the best SNL skits of all time.

He says after getting fucking yeeted lol

Best follow up line ever

It’s easily the beat SNL skit of all time

Exemplar Kyle, did you see the new one yet? Lmfao

If this is one of the best SNl skits of all time I’m glad I don’t watch SNl, it’s like an American version of Monty Python where 90% of the jokes aren’t all that funny or memorable

Now we need a Story about Rick the Door Technician

I love how he cant help but being pure evil,hes rotten to the core😂

I have watched this a thousand times 😂😂 can’t get enough 😂😂😂

same

Kylo Ren Undercover Boss is now my favorite part of the Star Wars Universe

Really nice show! guys you did a great job

Adam Driver is a cross between Professor Snape & Napoleon Dynamite I’m here for it

This is the most accurate thing I have read all month

Michelle Nicole wow...you nailed it...😂

😂😂😂😂😂

Ayoooo 😂😂😂😂

I keep forgetting how funny this is. This skit is one of the few good things to come out of Disney Star Wars.

Honestly I would’ve died laughing during the entire time I was trying to do the episode.

Adam Driver is just a Talented Actor. He stayed in Character even when some of the scenes he could've Broke!? 😆👍 👏👏👏👏👏 Best line : "Jerk Face "!

I can't imagine the amount of control and endless revisions the writers have to endure to do something like this with Disney.

without this skit we woulda never had the hardest video game boss ever... rick the door technician
