Now that there's no more election (or Tina Fey or Amy Poehler), Saturday Night Live got back to the basics this weekend: Surprise celebrity guest stars and men in women's clothing. For this episode (featuring adorable host Paul Rudd), Justin Timberlake showed up to seem likable for five minutes during a skit involving a Beyonce music video shoot. The former boy bander has become quite the tool as of late, but he always manages to be fairly awesome when he's on this show, so we approve.

New research calls into question a study suggesting circumcision halves a man's chances of contracting HIV, a claim detailed at length in 2006 in this former "Most E-Mailed" New York Times article. According to one expert, the latest data shows the 2006 findings to be "spurious and unsupported" and more related to behavior than physicality. Whoops.

Sorry you got such a bad rap, hooded friends. To make you feel more included, after the jump, we've made a list of all your ALLEGEDLY uncircumcised brethren in Hollywood.

Wilson took the stage with co-stars Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzman to talk about the movie, and director Wes Anderson said of him, "I've never made a movie without him and I hope I never have to."

Because heaven forbid Wes Anderson make a movie that doesn't include a dim, sensitive, troubled blond. That would be like Zach Braff not portraying a numb, upper middle class Northeasterner with major issues or Wesley Snipes playing a character who doesn't at least once remind everyone he's black.

More from the premiere under here, with a special appearance by James Van Der Beek.

Paul Rudd's great in just about every part he gets nowadays. His effortlessness and distinct charm are probably his most heralded characteristics, though he rounds out his personality with a variety of nuanced high notes. However, before his ease on screen made him famous, Rudd did what any struggling actor would have done: He starred in a Super Nintendo commercial. And in it, he plays F-Zero with such painstaking grace that one would think he was in a control tower landing airplanes of babies (babies who will grow up to cure cancer!).

Hey, everyone starts somewhere; and for many, many young men, that somewhere was in front of a Nintendo.

More of present-day Rudd after the jump.

If you're a married man and you live in the Tristate area, be sure to keep this clip away from your wife. For here is such a perfect storm of non-threatening, intelligent, funny New Yorkers, that any woman from the Northeastern United States who sees this will immediately be completely crushed out, with visions of soft brown hair and scathingly witty dinner parties dancing in her head. This interview is basically a localized prophylactic. Good luck getting laid tonight, Manhattan men.

I'm not certain that this needed to be recreated, but, here, Michael Showalter and Paul Rudd reenact the infamous I Heart Huckabees meltdowns.

The new issue of Jane offers a photo spread with a very simple premise: "We went to Sundance and asked a bunch of stars, "What's your crime?" Then we shot them."

Well get ready, because the stars' answers generally hit you so hard with a one-two combo of boring and puzzling that you might think you're watching Lost. The only two to get it right were Paul Rudd and Sam Rockwell.

Unfortunately, Jane staffers failed to include in the shoot noted Sundance regulars OJ Simpson, Brandy and Roman Polanski. Put your thinking caps on, you three; and be prepared with some wacky "crimes" next year!

PS Who's Amy Ferguson?

Tired of hearing about Sundance swag? So's everyone. Especially the actors that are there to promote movies. So tired of it in fact that, as the New York Daily News reports, they're donating their freebies to better causes. A couple charities have set up shop at Sundance and are offering to auction off whatever swag people don't want. One of the first takers was Adam Brody, who happily dumped off some goods. Nice! Y'know, that guy really puts the bro in Brody.

Anyway, here's the best answer anyone's given thus far when asked about the charity donations; it comes to you from Paul Rudd:

"I actually don't believe in charity," actor's actor Paul Rudd told us. "By working hard and entertaining the world, I think I deserve a cashmere stereo."

Rudd went on to assure everyone he was going to donate. To be sure, funny guys are better than charitable guys. But funny, charitable guys are the best. Eat it, Trump.
