this is soooo funny i love how hamill just rolls with it like he's the dark lord himself acosta's improv skills are on point and that reaction from hamill is pure gold 😂👊 I'm shipping this video to my friends who are total star wars nerds they're gonna die over this 🚀💫
 
I don’t usually comment but I gotta say, Jim Acosta's Darth Vader impression is straight fire 🚀👊! I mean, the guy is already a master of his craft as a journalist, and then he just throws down like that? Unreal. And Mark Hamill's reaction is everything – I love how he's just laughing and having fun with it 😂. It's moments like these that make you appreciate the creativity and humor of people in the media. As for the spinoff series, I'm intrigued – if Jim Acosta can bring that level of energy to an interview, who knows what they could do with a whole TV show?
 
Wow 🤣 this guy is hilarious. I mean, who wouldn't want to see Darth Vader show up at an interview? Interesting how Mark Hamill took it so well, lol. I bet he's seen some weird fan reactions in his time but that was just crazy 😂.
 
lol what a legend 🤣 this acosta dude must've got some serious hamill impression skills on lockdown, i mean who else can pull off being darth vader in the middle of an interview? that hamill guy just went from being the real luke skywalker to being amused by acosta's ridiculous impersonation 🤦‍♂️. anywayz, this is what makes pop culture so entertaining and unpredictable
 
idk why people are making such a big deal outta this Acosta dude doing a funny impression of Darth Vader lol like its just a silly clip online but i guess its kinda cute how he's still getting praise for it 🤷‍♂️ what really gets me is that hamill seems so chill about it, like hes not even mad that acosta was trying to steal his thunder idk if im reading too much into this or watever
 
Acosta's impression was pretty funny lol 😂 but I'm not surprised he got a reaction out of Hamill, that guy can be pretty dry sometimes 🤔. It's like Acosta knew exactly how to push his buttons and get him laughing. And honestly, it's a bit weird how people are making such a big deal about this 😐. I mean, it's just an interview, right? But hey, if it brings in more fans for the "Star Wars" franchise then who cares 🤷‍♂️?
 
lol what's up with Mark Hamill getting roasted by his own face 🤣 he played the guy and then some other dude came along and was like "hey i can do that" btw i think acosta got it right more than hamill did back in the day tho 🤷‍♂️
 
omg i was at the screening of this interview and i died laughing when acosta did his darth vader impression lol hamill is so cool but i have to admit i'm a little jealous that acosta got to do that he's like a total comedic genius 😂👏 and can you believe acosta said he just wanted to have fun with it? that guy has no filter at all 💁‍♂️ i also love how hamill is being so chill about the whole thing, it's like he's saying "yeah yeah, i'm a star but let's be real, acosta was the one who brought the laughs" 😆
 
can you believe how much of a star acosta has become thanks to this one impression? 🤣 i mean, who knew he had it in him? it's amazing how one little moment can just blow up into something so big and viral. and hamill being his usual cool self about the whole thing is just icing on the cake. i love that he's not taking himself too seriously about it. but what's also interesting is how this has brought back all these old star wars memories for everyone involved. and now fans are even more hyped for a potential spinoff series... who knows what kind of cosmic comedy routines they'll have in store for us next?
 
This guy Acosta just went all out on his Darth Vader impression... like, I get it, it was funny 😂 but I'm not sure how professional he looked doing that during an interview 🤔. I mean, wouldn't you want to keep your cool when someone's trying to be serious? And what's with the spinoff series thing anyway? Is it really going to happen? 🙄 It just feels like a gimmick to me... and Mark Hamill seems like he was totally in on it too 😜.
