It’s good to be a "scruffy and squinty and jacked, but in a sweet way" guy named Chris who acts in movies.

But apparently not if you don’t want to be confused with the other scruffy, beefy guys named Chris who act in movies.

Chris Pine, tonight’s Saturday Night Live host, used his monologue as an opportunity to differentiate himself from Hemsworth, Evans, and Pratt.

He did a song and dance to the tune of “Uptown Girl.” (Who knew Chris Pine had pipes?!)

He used visual aids.

But he ultimately came to the conclusion that, yeah, they are actually pretty indistinguishable. Still hot, though!
