[WATCH] Harrison Ford Will See That 'Wookiee Sack of S#@!' Chewbacca "In Hell!"

[WATCH] Harrison Ford Will See That 'Wookiee Sack of S#@!' Chewbacca "In Hell!"

Harrison Ford may look grumpy as hell, but the man has a fine-tuned sense of humor. Once again, the 42 actor has some fun with his Star Wars wingWookiee Chewbacca on  Jimmy Kimmel Live.  I was hoping that this time Ford would be furious at Chewy for roping him into celebrating Life Day on the much-maligned Star Wars Holiday Specialbut Kimmel's writers stuck to the running joke that the Wookiee had an affair with Ford's wife.  more »

WATCH: Love Is Torture −Jimmy Kimmel Re-Cuts 'Zero Dark Thirty' Trailer For The Rom-Com Crowd

WATCH: Love Is Torture −Jimmy Kimmel Re-Cuts 'Zero Dark Thirty' Trailer For The Rom-Com Crowd

Where was Jimmy Kimmel before the Oscars? Kathryn Bigelow could have used him.  On Wednesday night, the late-night talk-show host gave a comic lesson in marketing when he showed this trailer for the  March 19 DVD release of  Zero Dark Thirty that re-positions the movie as a romantic comedy instead of a pro-torture CIA procedural. All it takes is a little voiceover magic and some creative editing to depict Jessica Chastain as a workaholic in search of "the man of her dreams." more »

WATCH: LOLs, Sadfaces Ensue When Comedians Read Twitter Insults Aloud

Will Ferrell - Jimmy Kimmel

Because it's always good to remember that when you're judging famous people on Twitter, they sometimes read it (and weep), Jimmy Kimmel corralled a gaggle of comedians and comic actors to read some of the meanest Tweet-critiques they've received for the camera. I think we can all take a few universal lessons from this video: Namely, that celebrities like Jason Bateman, Presidential candidate Roseanne, and Andy Dick really are like the rest of us little Tweeters -- well okay, maybe not Andy Dick. Also: Will Ferrell reads his @ messages while on the can, too! If that can't bring us together as a Tweeple, what will?

Jimmy Kimmel's Star-Studded Movie: The Movie Spoof Is Depressingly Accurate

Movie: The Movie

Late night host Jimmy Kimmel's tradition of filming a post-Oscar movie-related spoof continued Sunday night with a "trailer" for Movie: The Movie, the ultimate star-studded epic to end all epics. In addition to featuring a host of stars, from Taylor Lautner to Helen Mirren to Tyler Perry (er, "Daniel Day-Lewis as Tyler Perry as George Washington"), the Kimmel-produced gag covered just about every genre and trope known to the movies. I give it a few years before some suit turns this into a reality.

Gary Oldman Gives Dramatic Reading of Jersey Shore Recap

Forget Transformers TV spots and Oscar frontrunner Jean Dujardin's racy French posters; let's talk about Best Actor nominee Gary Oldman and the Jersey Shore bump he's about to get from this dramatic reading of Snooki peeing her pants. Jimmy Kimmel put the Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy star up to the stunt on his late night show -- Which is on television! That thing that Oscar voters watch!

Watch the Jackass 3D Guys Send Britney Spears Aloft in a Porta-Potty

Watch the Jackass 3D Guys Send Britney Spears Aloft in a Porta-Potty

Johnny Knoxville knows what the people want. They want to see grown men hit in the junk with all manner of blunt objects. They want to watch beehive tetherball. And everyone wants to watch Britney Spears climb into a Porta-Potty filled with you-know-what and get launched into the stratosphere, a la Steve-O, in a "deleted scene" from Jackass 3D -- which is just what Knoxville gifted to the world when he visited Jimmy Kimmel last night.
