WELL GUYS, TODAY, GERMAN CHANCELLOR ANGELA MERKEL VISITED
PRESIDENT BIDEN AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
YEAH, MERKEL WAS GLAD TO SEE BIDEN.
SHE SAID, "WHEN I VISITED THE LAST PRESIDENT, HE ASKED IF I
WAS RELATED TO MEGHAN MERKEL." [ LAUGHTER ]
"I LOVED 'SUITS,' BY THE WAY. I LOVED YOU ON 'SUITS'."
[ LAUGHTER ] AFTER 16 YEARS IN OFFICE,
MERKEL'S RETIRING THIS YEAR, AND IT'S CLEAR THAT SHE'S READY.
WHEN BIDEN BROUGHT UP THE PANDEMIC AND CYBERATTACKS,
MERKEL WAS LIKE, "UMM, THIS SEEMS TO BE MORE LIKE A YOU
PROBLEM." [ LAUGHTER ]
MERKEL'S BEEN IN OFFICE FOR BUSH, OBAMA, TRUMP, AND NOW
BIDEN. AT THIS POINT, WHEN SHE MEETS A
NEW PRESIDENT, SHE'S JUST LIKE, "PLEASE BE NORMAL, PLEASE BE
NORMAL." [ LAUGHTER ]
BIDEN AND MERKEL ACTUALLY HAVE SOME THINGS IN COMMON -- THEY'RE
BOTH RESPECTED WORLD LEADERS WHO ALSO LOOK LIKE VICE PRINCIPALS
FIGHTING OVER A PARKING SPACE. [ LAUGHTER ]
BUT IT WAS A GREAT VISIT. MERKEL DEFINITELY SEEMED MORE
ENGAGED WITH BIDEN IN-PERSON THAN THE LAST TIME, WHEN THEY
MET OVER ZOOM. WATCH THIS.
>> WHEN I WAS VICE PRESIDENT, THEY HAD TO GO DOWN TO SPRING
TRAINING. AND I -- TURNS OUT IT WAS THE
YANKEES. AND --

ACCORDING TO A NEW REPORT, BACK IN EARLY 2016, VLADIMIR PUTIN
APPROVED A SECRET MISSION TO HELP TRUMP WIN THE PRESIDENCY
BECAUSE HE WAS "MENTALLY UNSTABLE" AND WOULD WEAKEN
THE U.S. [ AUDIENCE OOHS ]
TECHNICALLY, WHAT PUTIN SAID WAS, "HE IS LIKE RUSSIAN DOLL,
EXCEPT WHEN YOU OPEN HEAD, IS EMPTY."
[ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE ] [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
THE REPORT SAID TRUMP WAS IMPULSIVE, MENTALLY UNSTABLE,
AND HAD AN INFERIORITY COMPLEX. EVEN CRAZIER, THEY LIFTED THAT

[ LAUGHTER ] TRUMP SAID HE'S NOT UNSTABLE --
THEN WENT BACK TO WALKING DOWN A RAMP ON ALL FOURS.
[ LAUGHTER ] "IT'S VERY SLIPPERY.

VERY SLIPPERY." [ LAUGHTER ]
SPEAKING OF THE FORMER PRESIDENT, A NEW BOOK SAYS THAT
TOP MILITARY OFFICIALS LIKE GENERAL MARK MILLEY WERE SO
WORRIED TRUMP WOULD STAGE A COUP AFTER THE ELECTION, THEY WERE
ALL PREPARED TO RESIGN. WELL, TODAY, TRUMP ACTUALLY
RESPONDED TO GENERAL MILLEY. FOR REAL.
HE SAID, "IF I WAS GOING TO DO A COUP, ONE OF THE LAST PEOPLE I
WOULD WANT TO DO IT WITH IS GENERAL MARK MILLEY."
[ LAUGHTER ] YOU CAN TELL A LEADER REALLY
KNOWS HIS STUFF WHEN HE USES THE PHRASE, "DO A COUP."
[ LAUGHTER ] THEN, FOR THE NEXT 15 MINUTES,
HE NAMED ALL THE PEOPLE HE WOULD DO A COUP WITH.
"I'D COUP YOU. I'D COUP YOU.
YOU'RE COUP-ABLE." MEANWHILE, DURING A RECENT
INTERVIEW, FORMER TREASURY SECRETARY STEVEN MNUCHIN
STRUGGLED TO AVOID SAYING THAT TRUMP LOST THE ELECTION.
HERE, CHECK OUT MNUCHIN'S FULL STATEMENT.
FIRST, HE SAID, "THE 2020 ELECTION IS AN ONGOING
PROCESS AND THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY.
THANK YOU VERY MNUCH." [ LAUGHTER ]
[ APPLAUSE ] AND HE KEPT GOING.
NEXT, MNUCHIN SAID, "PRESIDENT TRUMP AND MNIKE PENCE DIDN'T
NECESSARILY WIN, BUT MNANY PEOPLE DON'T BELIEVE THE
MNAINSTREAM MNEDIA." [ LAUGHTER ]
AND THEN HE FINALLY WRAPPED THINGS UP.
HE SAID, "IT'S TIME TO MNOVE ON. SO I'MMA GO MNAKE MNYSELF A
MNANGO SMNOOTHIE AND WATCH MNY TWO FAVORITE SHOWS: 'MNALCOLM IN
THE MNIDDLE' AND 'THE MNARVELOUS MNRS. MNAISEL.'"

>> UNFORTUNATELY, I HAD TO CONSUME FOR TWO WEEKS,
7,000 CALORIES. AND THEN FOR ANOTHER TWO WEEKS,
11,000 CALORIES. AND IT WAS FUN FOR ABOUT AN
HOUR. AND THEN -- YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST
SUCH A -- IT'S SUCH A PHYSICAL -- A HARD,
PHYSICAL THING TO DO. I MEAN, LOSING WEIGHT, YOU JUST
KIND OF TOUGH IT OUT, YOU JUST DON'T EAT.
AND EXERCISE. AND THIS, EVEN WHEN YOU'RE FULL,
I WOULD WAKE UP AFTER A MEAL AND HAVE ANOTHER MEAL.
I WAS EATING EVERY THREE HOURS. IT WAS -- NOT FUN.

BELATED BIRTHDAY. YOU JUST TURNED 50.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] >> YEAH.
THANK YOU, MAN. >> Jimmy: HE LOOKS LIKE HE'S 25.
IS IT HARDER TO DO THE OLDER YOU GET, TO GAIN AND LOSE WEIGHT?
>> YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. YOU KNOW, ONCE THE METABOLISM
STARTS TO SLOWS DOWN, IT GETS REALLY DIFFICULT.
BUT, YOU KNOW, IT WAS SOMETHING THAT I'D BEEN TRYING TO GET THIS
MOVIE MADE FOR SIX YEARS. WE ONLY HAD 30 DAYS TO SHOOT IT.
AND SO, I WANTED TO REALLY MAKE IT HAPPEN.
AND WE'RE ALSO CRAZY ENOUGH TO HAVE FINANCED A LOT OF IT
MYSELF. SO, I KNEW I WAS ON A TICKING
CLOCK ON MY OWN DIME. AND YOU KNOW, YOU GET THINGS
DONE PRETTY QUICKLY WHEN THAT'S THE CASE.
>> Jimmy: YEAH. LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR MOVIE,
"JOE BELL." THIS IS COOL THAT YOU DID THIS.
THIS IS ANOTHER TRUE STORY. BASED ON A TRUE STORY.
>> YEP. >> Jimmy: CAN YOU SET UP THE
FILM FOR EVERYONE? >> YEAH, WELL, IT'S -- I DON'T
WANT TO GIVE AWAY EVERYTHING. BUT, A DAD IS BASICALLY GOING ON
A JOURNEY FROM LA GRANDE, OREGON TO NEW YORK CITY, WHERE HIS SON
ALWAYS WANTED TO LIVE. AND HE IS TALKING TO ANYBODY AND
EVERYBODY THAT HE CAN MEET. PEOPLE THAT HE CONFRONTS ABOUT
INTOLERANCE AND BULLYING. AND -- YEAH, HE'S TRYING TO
RAISE AWARENESS FOR HIS SON. >> Jimmy: IT'S AN AMAZING STORY.
IT'S ALMOST HARD TO BELIEVE. BUT HOW DID YOU FIND OUT ABOUT
THIS? >> ACTUALLY, SOMEBODY SENT ME
THE SCRIPT. AND I READ IT.
AND I OBVIOUSLY WAS VERY MOVED BY IT.
AND THEN, I HAD REALIZED THAT I HAD SEEN SOMEWHERE, I THINK, ON
THE NEWS ABOUT JOE'S JOURNEY. BUT I DIDN'T REALLY --
I DIDN'T REALLY REGISTER. AND THEN, OF COURSE, I WENT UP
TO -- TO LA GRANDE TO VISIT WITH LOLA AND JOSEPH WITH THEIR
FAMILY. AND I WAS IMMEDIATELY COMMITTED
TO MAKING THE MOVIE. I JUST FELT LIKE, YOU KNOW, AS A
PARENT, OF COURSE, YOU KNOW, IT'S SUCH AN IMPORTANT STORY TO
BE TOLD. >> Jimmy: YOU KNOW -- I THINK
YOU RETHINK EVERYTHING ONCE YOU HAVE KIDS.
ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO BULLYING AND STUFF.
>> YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. >> Jimmy: DID YOU READ THIS AS
AN ACTOR OR AS A DAD? >> I READ IT AS A DAD.
I READ IT AS A DAD. AND THEN I CASTED AS A DAD.
YOU KNOW, WE PUT THE WHOLE MOVIE TOGETHER BASED ON -- ON THAT
FEELING. AND WE ACTUALLY CAST AN AMAZING
YOUNG ACTOR, REID MILLER. >> Jimmy: OH, HE'S GREAT.
>> WHO -- WHEN HE CAME INTO THE ROOM, WE AUDITIONED HERE AT MY
HOUSE, I MEAN, HE HAD SIMILAR MANNERISMS TO MY -- TO BOTH OF
MY BOYS. AND SO, I JUST IMMEDIATELY FELT
LIKE IT WAS HIM. AND OF COURSE, GOING THROUGH THE
PROCESS, THERE WAS A LOT OF OTHER WONDERFUL ACTORS COMING
THROUGH. BUT I ALWAYS -- YOU KNOW, JUST
GRAVITATED TOWARDS REID. >> Jimmy: I WANT TO SHOW
EVERYONE A CLIP. HERE'S MARK WAHLBERG IN
"JOE BELL." TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.
* YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL IN YOUR WAY *
* 'CAUSE GOD MAKES NO MISTAKES *
* I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK BABY, I WAS BORN THIS WAY *

>> YOU KNOW WHAT? ALL RIGHT, EVEN I'LL ADMIT IT.
OKAY, IT'S A LITTLE CATCHY. >> YES IT IS.
>> DON'T HIDE YOURSELF WITH REGRET.
JUST LOVE YOURSELF AND YOU'RE SET.
* I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK BABY, I WAS BORN THIS WAY *
>> ALL RIGHT. >> WE'RE NOT DOING THAT AGAIN.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] >> Jimmy: YOU'RE A GOOD MAN,
BUDDY. ALWAYS GOOD TO SEE YOU.
MARK WAHLBERG. "JOE BELL," IS IN THEATERS
JULY 23rd. MARK HAMILL JOINS US AFTER THE
BREAK. STICK AROUND, EVERYONE.
COME ON BACK. >> Jimmy: OUR NEXT GUEST IS ONE
OF THE BIGGEST STARS IN THE WORLD.
HE CURRENTLY STARS AS THE VOICE OF SKELETOR IN THE NEW ANIMATED
SERIES, "MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE: REVELATION."
I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS. IT PREMIERES JULY 23rd ON
NETFLIX. HERE IS MARK HAMILL.
** [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. >> HI JIMMY.
>> Jimmy: LOOK AT YOU. I'M STILL --
>> HELLO, STUDIO AUDIENCE. >> Jimmy: THAT'S RIGHT.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] I'M SO HAPPY THAT YOU'RE ON THE
SHOW. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
BEFORE WE TALK ABOUT "MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE: REVELATION,"
WHICH, LIKE, I'M A GIANT HE-MAN FAN, SO I WANT TO TALK ABOUT
THIS. BUT I ALSO WANT TO SAY, I JUST
LOVE YOU AS AN ACTOR. >> WOW.
>> Jimmy: I DON'T KNOW IF I'VE EVER GOTTEN THE CHANCE TO TELL
YOU THAT, BUT I JUST LOVE YOU. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH.
>> Jimmy: YEAH, AND EVERY -- THE LAST COUPLE YEARS, YOU KEEP
SHOWING UP AND SURPRISING ME AND EVERYONE WITH THESE THINGS.
I DON'T WANT TO SPOIL ANY OF THE THINGS YOU HAVE THAT WE HAVEN'T
SEEN. PUT YOUR -- IF YOU'RE A
MANDALORIAN FAN, PUT YOUR EARPHONES ON.
BUT HOW YOU PULLED THAT OFF, WAS ONE OF THE COOLEST SURPRISES
EVER. I JUST WANTED TO SAY CONGRATS ON
THAT. THAT WAS ONE OF THE COOLEST TV
MOMENTS OF, DEFINITELY, THIS YEAR THAT WE SAW.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] >> AND TALK ABOUT UNEXPECTED.
YOU KNOW, I HAD FINISHED PLAYING THAT PART.
I NEVER EXPECTED TO DO IT AGAIN. AND I THOUGHT IF THEY EVER TELL
STORIES OF LUKE IN THAT PERIOD, POST THE ORIGINALS AND
PRE-SEQUELS, THEY'D GET AN ACTOR -- YOU KNOW, AN
AGE-APPROPRIATE ACTOR. SO WHEN JON FAVREAU AND
DAVE FILONI TOLD ME ABOUT WHAT THEY WANTED TO DO, I WAS JUST
STUNNED. BUT ONE OF THE MAIN THINGS WITH
"MANDALORIAN" IS YOU ARE SWORN TO SECRECY.
I CAN'T EVEN TALK ABOUT IT WITH MY FAMILY, EVEN NOW.
>> Jimmy: EVEN THOUGH AFTER IT'S OVER, YEAH.
BUT THEY'RE RELEASING -- >> ONE THING THAT I HAVE TO TELL
YOU THOUGH, EVEN THOUGH I CAN'T TALK ABOUT IT, THERE'S A SPECIAL
COMING ON DISNEY PLUS, ON AUGUST 25th.
WHICH IS A MAKING OF THE SEASON FINALE OF SEASON TWO, WHICH IS
THE EPISODE I WAS IN. SO THAT WILL ANSWER A LOT OF
YOUR QUESTIONS. [ APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: I LOVE THAT. ALL RIGHT, CAN'T WAIT.
THANK YOU. NOW LET'S -- LET'S TALK "MASTERS
OF THE UNIVERSE: REVELATION." >> YES.
YES, YES. >> Jimmy: I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT
THIS. I THINK KEVIN SMITH IS THE
PERFECT GUY TO GET INVOLVED WITH THIS.
>> HE IS SO PASSIONATE ABOUT "MASTERS OF THE
UNIVERSE: REVELATION." HE -- YOU KNOW, HE DOESN'T TAKE
IT LIGHTLY. HE KNOWS WHAT A HUGE
RESPONSIBILITY IT IS BECAUSE IT IS SO MEANINGFUL TO A WHOLE
GENERATION OF WHAT WERE ONCE CHILDREN THAT ARE NOW ADULTS,
WITH THEIR OWN KIDS. AND I REMEMBER, YOU KNOW, WHEN
MY BOYS WERE SMALL, THEY LOVED THIS SHOW.
AND PARENTS ALWAYS LOOK FOR THINGS THAT THEY CAN SHARE WITH
THEIR KIDS. >> Jimmy: YEAH.
>> SO, YOU KNOW, I JUMPED RIGHT IN.
I REMEMBER GETTING NATHAN THAT CASTLE GRAYSKULL FOR CHRISTMAS.
AND BATTLE CAT AND ON AND ON AND ON.
>> Jimmy: IS IT WILD FOR THEM TO SEE YOU BE THE VOICE OF -- I
MEAN, YOU'RE SKELETOR. THIS IS --
>> NOW LOOK AT THAT. [ APPLAUSE ]
YOU KNOW, THAT'S A FACE ONLY A MOTHER COULD LOVE.
>> Jimmy: YEAH, EXACTLY, YEAH. >> CAN YOU IMAGINE SKELETOR'S
MOTHER? WELL, NO.
THE THING IS -- YOU KNOW, NOT ONLY HAVE THEY NOT SEEN IT YET,
THE ONLY PIECES OF THE SHOW I'VE SEEN IS WHEN YOU GO IN TO DO
POST-PRODUCTION. YOU KNOW, YOU'RE TWEAKING LINES
AND THEY'RE SHIFTING THINGS AROUND.
I HAVEN'T SEEN FULL EPISODES. BUT WHAT I WAS STUNNED BY IS HOW
BEAUTIFULLY THEY'VE DONE IT. IT'S LUSH.
IT'S OPULENT. IT REALLY LOOKS EPIC.
SO THE ORIGINAL FANS, I THINK, ARE REALLY GOING TO LOVE IT.
AND ONE THING THAT'S GREAT ABOUT IT.
IT'S NOT A SEQUEL OR ANYTHING. IT'S A CONTINUATION,
ACKNOWLEDGING WHAT CAME BEFORE. BUT IF YOU'VE NEVER SEEN IT
BEFORE, YOU CAN JUMP RIGHT IN AND FEEL LIKE YOU HAVEN'T MISSED
ANYTHING. >> Jimmy: I WANT TO SHOW
EVERYONE A CLIP. HERE IS MARK HAMILL.
THIS IS AN EXCLUSIVE, AS SKELETOR IN "MASTERS OF THE
UNIVERSE: REVELATION." TAKE A LOOK.
>> ALL THESE YEARS, I FINALLY UNDERSTAND THAT GRAYSKULL IS NOT
THE PRIZE I'M AFTER. THIS CASTLE IS MERELY A SHELL.
THE PEARL I SEEK IS TRAPPED INSIDE.
SO I'M NOT HERE TO TAKE THE CASTLE.
I'VE COME TO TEAR GRAYSKULL DOWN STONE BY STONE.
>> Jimmy: YES! [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
STONE BY STONE! MARK HAMILL, EVERYBODY.
"MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE: REVELATION" PREMIERES
JULY 23rd ON NETFLIX. MARK AND I ARE PLAYING A VERY
FUN, NEW GAME AFTER THE BREAK. STICK AROUND.
COME ON BACK. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: THIS IS SO FUN. WE ARE HANGING OUT WITH THE
GREAT MARK HAMILL, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] THAT'S THE ONE AND ONLY.
NOW, MARK -- MARK, YOU'VE PLAYED SEVERAL ICONIC CHARACTERS OVER
THE YEARS. AND WE THOUGHT WE'D PUT YOUR
KNOWLEDGE OF YOUR OWN CHARACTERS TO THE TEST IN A NEW GAME CALLED
"KNOW YOUR ROLE." HERE WE GO.
* KNOW YOUR ROLE * >> Jimmy: NOW, HERE'S HOW IT
WORKS. I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU AN OBSCURE
FACT ABOUT A FAMOUS CHARACTER YOU HAVE PLAYED.
AND YOU HAVE TO TELL ME IF YOU THINK THAT STATEMENT IS TRUE OR
FALSE. ARE YOU READY?
>> OH, IT IS TRUE -- IT'S TRUE OR FALSE.
WHICH IS MUCH BETTER ODDS THAN MULTIPLE CHOICE.
SO, THAT'S GOOD. [ LIGHT LAUGHTER ]
>> Jimmy: YEAH, EXACTLY, YEAH. IT'S KIND OF MULTIPLE CHOICE.
IT'S 50/50 -- YEAH, IT'S TWO, YEAH.
ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO. FIRST UP, LUKE SKYWALKER.
HE, OF COURSE, IS THE MAIN CHARACTER IN THE ORIGINAL "STAR
WARS" TRILOGY. BUT THERE MIGHT BE SOME THINGS
YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT HIM. LET'S SEE IF YOU KNOW YOUR ROLE.
IN THE ORIGINAL DRAFT OF "RETURN OF THE JEDI" LUKE WAS GOING TO
TURN EVIL AT THE END AND TEAM UP WITH DARTH VADER TO TAKE ON THE
GALAXY. >> I PITCHED THAT TO GEORGE.
BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT'S THE WAY THINGS WERE GOING IN "EMPIRE."
I GOT THE GLOVED HAND AND I WAS DRESSED ALL IN BLACK.
BUT ACTUALLY, GEORGE SAID, NO. IT'S A FAIRY TALE FOR CHILDREN.
LUKE IS -- YOU KNOW, HE'S VIRTUOUS.
HE'S THE GOOD GUY. SO, THAT'S FALSE.
>> Jimmy: YES. WOW, INTERESTING.
[ APPLAUSE ] [ DING ]
I WAS HOPING THAT -- I WAS HOPING FOR THAT.
LET'S SWITCH THINGS UP. YOU ALSO PLAYED THE JOKER IN
"BATMAN THE ANIMATED SERIES." IN AN ALTERNATE REALITY, THE
JOKER IS BATMAN'S MOTHER. [ LAUGHTER ]
>> WOW. [ LAUGHTER ]
YOU KNOW, I HAVEN'T READ ALL OF THE MATERIAL.
BUT, I MEAN, IN MY EXPERIENCE, MY VERSION OF THE JOKER, I DON'T
REMEMBER THAT EVER BEING THE CASE.
MAYBE THEY DID THAT SOMEWHERE AND I DIDN'T READ IT.
BUT, I WOULD SAY THAT'S FALSE. [ BUZZER ]
>> Jimmy: IT IS TRUE. [ AUDIENCE OHS ]
>> OH, NO. >> Jimmy: IN SOME ALTERNATE
REALITY, THE JOKER WAS -- YEAH -- WAS BATMAN'S MOTHER.
>> DOES IT SAY WHERE AND WHEN AND WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT?
OR JUST -- [ LAUGHTER ]
>> Jimmy: NO. NOTHING.
IT JUST SAYS NOTHING ELSE. >> NO, ALL RIGHT.
SO, NO BACKUP. JUST TRUST YOU.
>> Jimmy: YEAH. [ LAUGHTER ]
IT SAYS GOOGLE IT. IT SAYS GOOGLE IT.
I DON'T KNOW. THERE'S A STORYLINE IN THE
COMICS WHERE A MONKEY BRIEFLY BECOMES THE JOKER.
AND HIS SIGNATURE MOVE IS MAKING HIS OPPONENTS SLIP ON A BANANA
PEEL. >> THAT SOUNDS STUPID.
I'LL JUST SAY IT'S TRUE. [ LAUGHTER ]
[ BUZZER ] >> Jimmy: YOU'RE WRONG.
IT'S FALSE. WE MADE THAT UP.
THE MONKEY WASN'T THE JOKER. BUT THE JOKER COULD BE BATMAN'S
MOTHER. BUT IT'S NOT A MONKEY.
LET'S NOT BE RIDICULOUS. >> I WAS GOING TO SAY IS THAT
ANY CRAZIER THAN HIM BEING BATMAN'S MOTHER.
>> Jimmy: LET'S NOT BE RIDICULOUS.
IT WOULD NEVER BE A MONKEY. ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO.
LET'S GET TO SKELETOR. YOU'RE PLAYING THE HE-MAN
VILLAIN, SKELETOR IN THE NEW NETFLIX SHOW, "MASTERS OF THE
UNIVERSE: REVELATION." LET'S SEE HOW YOU KNOW THAT
ROLE. YOUR CHARACTER, SKELETOR, IS
OFTEN DEPICTED AS EVIL, BUT ACCORDING TO A TV SPECIAL,
IN 1985, HE ACTUALLY LOVES CHRISTMAS.
[ LIGHT LAUGHTER ] >> NO, HE'S THE EVIL LORD OF
DESTRUCTION. NO, HE MUST HATE CHRISTMAS.
[ BUZZER ] >> Jimmy: HE LOVES CHRISTMAS.
[ LAUGHTER ] THEY DID A SPECIAL AND
APPARENTLY, AT THE END, HE REALLY LOVED CHRISTMAS.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT -- WHERE -- AGAIN, I DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER
FACTS EXCEPT THAT YOU'RE WRONG. THAT'S ALL I'LL SAY.
>> WELL, THIS QUIZ IS GOING TO GET ME KICKED OFF THE SHOW.
>> Jimmy: NEVER IN YOUR LIFE. YOU'RE A LEGEND, BUD.
FINALLY, HERE WE GO. SKELETOR IS HE-MAN'S ESTRANGED
UNCLE. >> FALSE.
[ BUZZER ] >> Jimmy: IT IS TRUE.
[ LAUGHTER ] SEE, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] I JUST FOUND THAT OUT TODAY,
MARK. I FOUND IT OUT TODAY.
WE GOT -- IT'S A WEIRD THING. I GO, WHAT?
THAT CAN'T BE REAL. SKELETOR IS HE-MAN'S ESTRANGED
UNCLE. >> NOW, I'M WISHING YOU ASKED
THESE QUESTIONS OF MARK WAHLBERG.
[ LAUGHTER ] [ APPLAUSE ]
HE WOULD HAVE DONE BETTER. >> Jimmy: NO WAY.
NO ONE BETTER THAN MARK HAMILL. THAT'S MARK HAMILL.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] WATCH "MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE:
REVELATIONS" ON NETFLIX, JULY 23rd.
