Jason Sudeikis Likens 'Twilight Saga' To 'Star Wars'

MTV Movie Awards host tells Jason Bateman that Bella and Edward kiss is 'a big darn deal' during our 'Horrible Bosses' Sneak Peek Week Q&A.

WEST HOLLYWOOD, California — It all started with an innocent fan question, submitted via Twitter, during the MTV News Sneak Peek Week presentation of the summer comedy "Horrible Bosses."

The crowd at the Pacific Design Center had just finished watching an early screening of the flick and were taking in the live chat with stars [article id="1664964"]Jason Bateman and Jason Sudeikis[/article] and director Seth Gordon, when the conversation turned to Sudeikis' upcoming gig: [article id="1662783"]hosting the MTV Movie Awards[/article] on Sunday.

"Can the two Jasons top the [article id="1664963"]Bella and Edward kiss from 'Eclipse'[/article]?" the tweeter-in-question wanted to know.

"What is that?" Bateman, clearly no devotee of the vampire franchise, wanted to know.

So in stepped Sudeikis, who has been studying up on the Twi-ins and Twi-outs of Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner's blockbuster series. The "Saturday Night Live" funnyman proceeded to launch into an uproarious rundown of the steamy love triangle at the heart of the "Twilight Saga." As Sudeikis explained it, Pattinson plays a "handsome vampire kid," Lautner portrays "this other fella floating around," and Stewart is "flummoxed — she doesn't know which way to go."

Hitting on everything from "Star Wars" to masturbation to "Little House on the Prairie," the cinematic breakdown was both reverent and ridiculous. But any summary can't quite capture the magic of Sudeikis playing film school prof, so hit play on the video and check it out yourself!

"Eclipse," meanwhile, is up for eight nominations, including two Best Kiss nods for KStew herself, one with Rob and one with Taylor. As Sudeikis put it, "Them smooching is a big darn deal!" Don't forget to check out the Movie Awards when they air live on Sunday at 9 p.m. ET/PT. As we just announced, Pattinson, Stewart and Lautner will be on hand to present an [article id="1664941"]exclusive clip from "Breaking Dawn - Part 1."[/article]
