Ian Mckellen hosting SNL

[Black Rider]

reminiscing over Ian's time hosting SNL, I posted about it and tons of ppl seemed to be reminiscing with me... thought there should be an official spot for it.

Excellent!

Remember me? ;)

I thought he was fantastic! The Judi Dench line killed me...and he kissed Jimmy Fallon!

Did you see him dacing in the background while Kylie Minogue was performing?

[Black Rider]

holy **** my friends and i still make fun of that!! we call it the "Ian Mckellen gay bounce" it was great!

J: Okay…Dame Maggie…
IM: …call me Maggs.
J: …ok, Maggs, uh, let’s talk about the Oscars.
IM: Yes lets. {making faces at camera as if checking reflection in mirror}
J: Who do you think’s gonna win for best actor?
IM: Well the winner will be Denzel Washington…and Denzel if you have any interest in getting it on with an experienced old dame of experience, give me a call {big cheesy grin}
J: OK, what about best actress?
IM: {frowning mock disapproval, nose in air; stiffly} Judi Dench, little Judi Dench, such a clever little Judi Dench, little clever chubby Judi Dench…
J: {interrupting} All right, all right…best supporting actess, who’s that?
IM: {in “of course” sort of way} Oh me whether I win it or not.
J: Ok that’s good! Uh, best supporting actor?
IM: Oh without a doubt Ian McKellen, Saint Ian, mmm {grins} They’ve got to throw that old queen a bone sometime.
J: {laughing} Oh, is he…gay? I didn’t even…
IM: {eyeing J up and down with great, um, interest}
J: ,…I didn’t know that…

moral: you can find anything on the internet (at hyperspeed)

I thought the part where he kissed JImmy was sort of funny yet really weird.

[Nessa]

I just thought it was hilarious! McKellen ran away very fast for an older guy.... lol

queened, *snicker*

[Legolas Greenleaf]

[Firith Evenstar]

omg! that's sounds great! I'm such a big fan of snl! i can't believe i missed that! :mecry: nuts! i have to see that. jimmy fallon rocks my silly little socks off!

[Talandil]

I did a bit of research and, unfortunately, they pre-arranged the whole scene. However, Jimmy did a great job of acting surprised!
I laughed so hard when I first saw it though.
I really hope Ian undertakes more comedic roles. He's quite good!
