\n\tSaturday Night Live<\/a>\u2019s Weekend Update was back and focused on the movie business.<\/p>\n

\n\tJeremy Culhane returned as Tucker Carlson and he was giving his thoughts on the summer\u2019s slate of blockbusters.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s movie time, let\u2019s find our seats, silence our cell phones and abandon Christian values,\u201d he opened. \u201cOf course, I\u2019m talking about PAW Patrol: The Dino Movie. Let me get this right: Jesus didn\u2019t live at the same time as the dinosaurs but PAW Patrol did? What are we doing? What\u2019s going on?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tOther kids movies in the spotlight were Toy Story 5 and Minions and Monsters.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt was also a big summer for Minions and Monsters and no I\u2019m not talking about the children\u2019s film, I\u2019m talking about the Trump cabinet. That\u2019s right, I\u2019ve turned on Trump, I\u2019m so brave,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn the fifth installment of Disney\u2019s Tom Hanks-narrated film, he added, \u201cLet me understand this, you\u2019ve got a friend in me and his name is Woody?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIt wasn\u2019t just the kids slate that took a hit. Culhane\u2019s Carlson also had some words for Christopher Nolan\u2019s The Odyssey<\/a>, Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Obsession.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe Hollywood cabal shoots its filth with millimeters, or what I like to call it, the gay edge. I like The Odyssey, it\u2019s so nice to see Greek people do something other than make women feel uncomfortable,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn Tom Holland\u2019s superhero flick, he said, \u201cEverybody loves Spider-Man: Brand New Gender. Spider-they, Spider-them, uses whatever bathroom it feels like.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tOn Curry Barker\u2019s horror movie, he added, \u201cObsession, the left\u2019s idea of a horror movie is that a woman is forced to love a man. Oh no, help, I\u2019m being chased by a heterosexual relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAll of this came after Weekend Update anchor Michael Che took aim at David Ellison\u2019s Paramount+<\/a> and Taylor Sheridan.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe White House responded to major news networks canceling coverage of President Trump by launching a live stream called Trump TV. But if that\u2019s Trump TV, what the hell is Paramount+?,\u201d joked Che.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe shows on screen? Sheridan\u2019s Yellowstone, prequel 1883, spinoff Dutton Ranch and Sylvester Stallone-led Tulsa King.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Saturday Night Live\u2019s Weekend Update was back and focused on the movie business.
