You know, that reminds me of another of my favorite SNL moments. It was from the mid 80's, when Dennis Miller was doing the news, I think. One of the show's other regulars came on the Update. She was there to do a movie review and said something like:

I saw Out of Africa this week. . . And I'm sorry, but this movie just was not funny at all!

She then proceded to mention all the sad things that happen to the pair of lovers and pronounces the movie a miserable flop. It was very funny.
