SNL British Gangster Movie Sketch

This Saturday Night Live spoof of British gangster movies starring Bill Hader, Russell Brand and Fred Armisen hits all the right notes.

A fake trailer for a film called Don’ You Go Rounin’ Roun to Re Ro it nails the gloomy cliches, thick dialects and general air of naffness that surrounds the genre.

Compare it to the actual trailers of recent crap like Bonded by Blood (2010) and Rise of the Footsoldier (2007) and you’ll get an idea of how spot on it is: warehouse shootings, cockney aggression and overblown acting are all par for the course.

Sarah Palin as herself on Saturday Night Live

Sarah Palin has been the subject of many Saturday Night Live sketches recently, so it only seemed natural that she would appear on it as herself. 

The Republican VP pick took a break from the campaign trail to appear in two sketches, where she watched Tina Fey (play her) in a bit about Palin’s first press conference alongside SNL honcho Lorne Michaels

Alec Baldwin and Mark Wahlberg also made appearances in the opening sketch.

Later in the show, she popped up during Weekend Update which featured the ‘Palin Rap’.
