As Jimmy Kimmel prepared to introduce Star Wars: The Last Jedi's Oscar Isaac, Mark Hamill, Kelly Marie Tran and BB-8 to the stage, he remarked that he wished his 9-year-old self was around to see this moment, because he'd be so much more excited.

At that point, "9-year-old Jimmy" materialised on stage, sporting a Star Wars shirt and broom, before greeting Jimmy as his "60-year-old self", to the crowd's delight.

When young Jimmy expressed disgust at Jimmy being just 50, he insisted that older Jimmy "should've taken better care of us", causing "old" Jimmy to retort, "Just read the teleprompter, you little b***ard. I know where you hide the magazines."

Of all the hit-and-miss goofy skits this year, this was easily one of the best (and weirdest).
