Everyone is talking about Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but it's not the only new movie in theaters this weekend. The cast of Sisters would like people to go see their film, too, and on Late Night, they came up with an ingenious way to spread the word — they used Star Wars action figures to let viewers know why their movie is the superior product. Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph, Rachel Dratch, Ike Barinholtz, and Paula Pell all gave humorous quick pitches, but the highlight was hearing a clearly annoyed Amy Poehler share her true feelings about the competition.
