@@dawb86 i think lego once broke down during a take. sam jackson talks about, where leo went to tarantino and was talking about how uncomfortable he was with how many n words was in the script. so sam jackson pulled him aside and told him not to worry about it. i mean jackson didn't use those words but it's a funny story.

@@BrooklynDaDon1 Ah I see thanks. Are a lot of white Americans confortable with saying the N word? I mean I haven't been around the rural areas much, and I haven't been in very white situations either (I'm Asian), but the N word seemed to be a big no-no.

So...if you think ut must've been hard fir them to act these roles...how come that for the rest of american socuety it is assumed that they arr all bigotted racusts who have to be halted from expressing it. Why do you think a hollywood actor us any different?
@@markaplier1261 Woah there. Aren't you being a bit presumptuous? All I said that it must have been hard for the actors. That shouldn't imply anything.
@@gumballfan13 yeah, I know, and I'm not blaming you for not interpreting it how I did. I am simply making you aware of the fact that there is a double standard when it comes to assuming who is racist. I assume that you are not racist, so it is hard for you to utter these words. The question then is, do you also assume that other people find it hard to utter racial slurs (excluding actors)? Because so it seems to me, if you are only a tat representative of the attitude on racism in us society, then you would see racism everywhere in the public sphere; interpreting everything which has to do with African Americans which is not extremely positive towards them, as racist. My point is that if so, there is hypocrisy in assuming racism in others in the society, but not towards actors. as if because the people are leftists (which most of them are) and Hollywood stars changes anything about their inner believe system. Maybe I assumed too much of you, but I still am interested to know what you think about what I postulated, this double standard when it comes to who is assumed to be racist and who is not.
Exactly! He is one of my favorite actors and all throughout the movie I hated him but I also wanted him to protect Lupita (forgot charac name) from his Karen wife but I had to tell myself this was a movie based on a real life experience.
This just cures depression. When laughter just unites us all.. instead of being so serious or sad all the time. I never even thought about how awkward it must've felt auditing for this movie --which I've never seen-- but that's why they're actors ya'all! But this skit just makes us laugh out loud together haha
This was hilarious!! It shows how people can be so uncomfortable with racism and actually have respect for all human beings..I dont think Keenan has ever done a non- believable character, dude is so good!!
Eh, you're kinda reaching with the respect for all human beings part. Not wanting to say taboo words doesn't mean you don't harbor any biases or anything.

@@franknuzzo2576 I mean...not really? The whole concept of something being "woke" is just an individual self-reporting that they can't handle anything to do with, y'know, how society works - in that it's always moving forward. Go back 50 years and the shit you wouldn't find acceptable then is what you would call "woke" today. So, no, you don't have any problems with anything that is "woke," what you have a problem with is not being able to say the insensitive, bully-shit you want to say that's never been acceptable. It just now has a label, so you can easily thrown that label around and pretend as if society is on some SJW kick. Which none of said "woke" or other BS is true. It's just in your head.
The actors that played the cruel slave owners in the film were cringey-good. Very convincing. Difficult scenes to watch. I can't imagine having to say those lines.
If only they could have done it as a voiceover or used an avatar to block their faces so they won't get jumped in highschool or by their moms black boyfriend.
Leo Scarpoli Well it isn’t real so that would be a strange reason to assault someone. Which would also serve to back up negative and untrue stereotypes really.
His English accent is really good. Normally you get a shit Dick Van Dyke cockney accent or a generic posh Hugh Grant, which are the only two accents in England according to American actors. Keenan was great.
I know, right? But maybe that's the reason. A comedian would be glad to have a serious role, so it's understandable that once Taran got a chance like that he didn't want to spoof it.
+Random Person There's no wtf about that. Don't be such a stereotypical American. If I had to be an actor and play the role, I'd do the same. I cosplay Bellatrix, but feel uncomfortable being the 'nympho' crazy violent screamer she is. So when I cosplay her, she's condescending, disses people and makes sharp remarks about others. And every so often, curses a few swears around and calls people stupid bitches and then I continue my day. Sometimes people want to do dramatic potter photoshoots, where (it looks like) we choke each other or commit a murder to Dobby/Sirius. But I feel uncomfortable with that. So the condescending part does fit me. But I wouldn't be able to fake-hurt someone, or I'd réally have to hate them in real life.
In general when playing villains you have to realize you're playing a tole and character and you're going to have to say horrible things for the camera in-character as part of the performance to sell the art. I recall a story about Dejango Unchained where Leonardo DeCaprio was uncomfortable with a lot of the racial-slur filled dialog and Samuel L Jackson took him aside and told him "we're both adults acting in a movie and you're playing the bad guy, just deliver the dialog and stop screwing around"
Why is it we can acknowledge the realism of situations (race relations) when in a comedic setting yet will not seriously acknowledge that same realism (racism, prejudice) otherwise?
That's one of the functions of comedy, good comedy enables people to say/confront things they'd never say otherwise. Think of All in the Family... purposely intended to get us all talking about race.
While I think D DiGiorgio made a good point, I'd also like to add that SNL has a largely liberal (meaning anyone left of center) audience, the same demographic which has been more willing to acknowledge these things. There aren't as many conservatives watching this, and maybe they wouldn't be laughing as much.
@@ddigiorgio8438 Thats a good (and very true) point. The only problem is, that approach to topics like racism tends to remain in comedy and rarely spills over into real life. So its like we can talk about it as long as humour takes the real sting out. But when its time to discuss 'the sting', its a problem to talk about.
Excellent question. Comedy is often like philosophy. It interprets and reflects life back to us, and often points out what is absurd. This is what makes us laugh. Here, the absurdity is having a white person of today saying the horrible words that historically were spoken so easily.

HighSpeedNoDrag “jumps back”
"You know, I feel like my character would be looking away...alot.." hahahahaaaa!
Jim Parsons always does Sheldon's personality. Type Cast. AMAZING
2:47 dude would not touch that whip. I'm dying 😭
I Heard Jim Parsons got the part of "Shelton Cooper" on TBBT with this small part on SNL.
*bug eyed*
I've never even considered how insanely difficult a role it would be to be an slave owning racist.
*shudders*
marlon patrick wtf....
Josephine Thornton its not for seasoned actors
+Random Person
There's no wtf about that. Don't be such a stereotypical American.
If I had to be an actor and play the role, I'd do the same.
I cosplay Bellatrix, but feel uncomfortable being the 'nympho' crazy violent screamer she is.
So when I cosplay her, she's condescending, disses people and makes sharp remarks about others.
And every so often, curses a few swears around and calls people stupid bitches and then I continue my day.
Sometimes people want to do dramatic potter photoshoots, where (it looks like) we choke each other or commit a murder to Dobby/Sirius. But I feel uncomfortable with that.
So the condescending part does fit me. But I wouldn't be able to fake-hurt someone, or I'd réally have to hate them in real life.
I couldn’t do it, I could be any type of villain just not a slave owner
In general when playing villains you have to realize you're playing a tole and character and you're going to have to say horrible things for the camera in-character as part of the performance to sell the art.
I recall a story about Dejango Unchained where Leonardo DeCaprio was uncomfortable with a lot of the racial-slur filled dialog and Samuel L Jackson took him aside and told him "we're both adults acting in a movie and you're playing the bad guy, just deliver the dialog and stop screwing around"
lol "If I was you I'd keep an on that camera"
You butchered that quote...
@@juliiouus96 piss off trash
@@jsm530 Calm your tits
Best line in the skit.
Lmao
Jim Parsons just cracks me up!
that take on Jerome and camera part made me laugh
Kenan was flawless. Wow he nailed it.
The eye contact with Jerome - that Jim Parsons is brilliant at portraying subtle racism.
""I dont wanna be seen with that""
"She's nothing but a.......""
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"keep your eyes on camera btw" XDDDD
Kenan is one of the most diverse actors. PERIOD. SOO underrated
Why is it we can acknowledge the realism of situations (race relations) when in a comedic setting yet will not seriously acknowledge that same realism (racism, prejudice) otherwise?
That's one of the functions of comedy, good comedy enables people to say/confront things they'd never say otherwise. Think of All in the Family... purposely intended to get us all talking about race.
While I think D DiGiorgio made a good point, I'd also like to add that SNL has a largely liberal (meaning anyone left of center) audience, the same demographic which has been more willing to acknowledge these things. There aren't as many conservatives watching this, and maybe they wouldn't be laughing as much.

Thats a good (and very true) point. The only problem is, that approach to topics like racism tends to remain in comedy and rarely spills over into real life. So its like we can talk about it as long as humour takes the real sting out. But when its time to discuss 'the sting', its a problem to talk about.
Excellent question. Comedy is often like philosophy. It interprets and reflects life back to us, and often points out what is absurd. This is what makes us laugh. Here, the absurdity is having a white person of today saying the horrible words that historically were spoken so easily.
2:30 "looking away"
Nice Dixie reference ;)
That "Southern" accent!😂😂😂
Sounds even funnier to Southerners who can laugh at themselves through those who hear us like this.🤣🤣🤣🤣
SNL can take any topic and make it hilarious! True comedic genius.
"Why don't you use *Jerome* as an eye-line!"
*Jerome points at his eyes*
I don't know how many times I've watched this and it's still hilarious.
This had me crying of laughter. Makes me wonder how awkward the auditions were💀
"Don't look at that. Do you guys have any North parts?"🤣🤣🤣
Jerome’s unrelenting stare!!! 🤣🤣🤣
And when he asked if there were any “Northern parts” 🤣🤣🤣
Im black and i had fun watching this
OK still nigga
That's the point...
Congrats
Wayne Lovings 😂 Lord knows, I am.
Im fun watching this and I had black
"He didn't even need the script!" - rofl
Keenan's McQueen is brilliant!!! That was so funny lmao! The nuances on facial expressions were spot on!!
*Kenan's
This dude can get into the skin of any character. He's so talented and versatile
Thee look on Jerome's face was priceless.
love how everytime the director comes on they play the theme song 😂😂😂
