Some of the celebrities who read mean tweets about themselves for Wednesday's Jimmy Kimmel Live shot some insults back to their mean-tweeter — Tiffany Haddish, for example, and Sarah Paulson. But many of the film and TV stars played along or even agreed with the criticism. Yes, Will Ferrell shouts a lot. Chris Rock needs to do bad movies because of his divorce. Jeff Goldblum is perfectly aware that he's a freak, and Mark Hamill can sass in Yoda voice. Jake Gyllenhaal found the insult lobbed at him rather poetic, and Kim Kardashian agreed with her antagonist in a different way. And Fred Savage? Well, watch below. Peter Weber
