Jennifer Lawrence slammed her fellow Academy Award nominees during her funny opening monologue on “Saturday Night Live”.


The “Silver Linings Playbook” star pretended the other nominees didn’t stand a chance against her at the upcoming Oscars.


Jennifer Lawrence said of Jessica Chastain, “In Zero Dark Thirty you caught Bin Laden. So what? In Winter’s Bone I caught a squirrel, and then ate it.”


Lawrence said of Naomi Watts, “You were in The Impossible. You know what else is impossible? You beating me on Oscar night.”


Quvenzhané Wallis, the 9-year-old nominee for “Beasts of the Southern Wild”, “You think you can beat me? [In best Gary Coleman voice] ‘What you talkin’ ’bout, Wallis?’ Also, the Alphabet called. It wants its letters back.”


And finally she said of Emmanuelle Riva, who starred in the French film “Amour”, “An 85-year-old French lady. Um, yeah, I think I can take you.”


Other topics on “Saturday Night Live” included disgraced athlete Lance Armstrong (Jason Sudeikis), hoax victim Manti Te’o (Bobby Moynahan), Golden Globes honoree Jodie Foster (Kate McKinnon) and the very serious actor Tommy Lee Jones (Bill Hader).


We can see if Jennifer Lawrence beats out her fellow nominees when we tune in to the 85th annual Academy Awards on Sunday, Feb. 24, on ABC.
