Watch Chris Pratt Spoof 'Star Wars' and Marvel on 'Saturday Night Live'

When they announced that Chris Pratt was hosting the season debut of Saturday Night Live, you knew it wasn’t just because he’s on NBC’s Parks and Recreation. No, this was because he was the breakout star of the biggest hit of the year, Guardians of the Galaxy. The SNL writers needed to come up with something creative to mock Guardians’ success, and they did—by pointing the finger straight at Marvel.

That’s right, Marvel just can’t fail. Want a movie about four strangers off a bus? They’ll turn that into a $3 billion smash. Want a movie about, um, some woman named Pam? Shoot, they’ll even give you a sequel. But, most of all, they know even Lucasfilms’ little baby can use some Marvel magic next year. Check out in the embedded clip above.
