Jimmy Kimmel made the most of his post-Academy Awards timeslot on Sunday.

First, the comedian aired another edition of Lie Witness News, getting pedestrians to claim they’ve seen movies that don’t actually exist.

Then, the talk show host took viewers inside The Kimmel School of Perfect Acting, where he worked with A-Listers such as Jennifer Aniston, Sean Penn and Matt Damon.

Benedict Cumberbatch, Lupita Nyong’o, Mila Kunis, Jeff Bridges and Kristen Bell were also among those who touted Kimmel’s unorthodox method of teaching, which included:

  • A distrust fall in which Aniston crashed to the floor.
  • Gary Oldman literally trying to act his way out of a paper bag.
  • Susan Sarandon trying to fill a measuring cup with tears.
  • Sean Penn getting smacked.
  • Matt Damon acting as inanimate objects such as a lamp.

Eddie Redmayne, who won Best Actor at the 2015 Academy Awards, also played a key/hilarious role.
