Avengers: Age of Ultron star Chris Hemsworth hosted Saturday Night Live over the weekend, and as one might expect, a skit involving his superhero alter ego found its way onto the show.

In the Avengers-themed sketch, a reporter played by Horatio Sanz attempts to wrangle Thor (Hemsworth) for an interview after The Avengers’ victory over the evil android Ultron and his robot minions, only to have some trouble reining in the hard-partying hero. Thor, who wants nothing more than to sing “We are the champions” and invite everyone to the after-party at Dave & Buster’s, is joined by Iron Man (Taran Killam), Nick Fury (Jay Pharoah), and Captain America (Beck Bennett).

They’re also briefly joined by Bruce Banner (Pete Davidson), who’s pretty sure he ate someone during the battle.

The Avengers’ real battle with Ultron has yet to make its way to theaters, however, with Avengers: Age of Ultron premiering just shy of two months from now. Directed by Joss Whedon, the film pits the Marvel Comics superhero team against an evil android (voiced by James Spader) bent on eradicating humanity from Earth.

Avengers: Age of Ultron hits theaters May 1, 2015.

However, Netflix's biggest recent addition is one of 2022's biggest animated hits: DreamWorks' Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.

Netflix's deals with Sony Pictures Animation, DreamWorks Animation, and Universal Pictures have given it a powerhouse library of animated films. And that's before we even get into Netflix's impressive originals like The Sea Beast. To help you keep track of what's new and what you can stream right now, we've updated our list of the best animated movies on Netflix.

Howard the Duck in "Howard the Duck."

The science-fiction genre has a vast smorgasbord of cheesy films stretching way back to the early days of cinema. Such pictures are known for their weird stories, unrealistic dialogue, low-budget productions, and exaggerated acting.

While many of these films have been panned by critics and audiences alike, some of them have garnered success for being "so bad, they're good." Whether or not they have been held up by a dedicated fan base, these seven movies stand out as the cream of the cheesy sci-fi crop.

10 best Batman stories ever, ranked

Batman Year One cover

Bounding from rooftop to rooftop, the Dark Knight never misses his mark. He operates like a well-oiled machine tracking bad guys, beating them to a bloody pulp, and throwing them in the slammer - or Arkham Asylum should they be anyone of Gotham's notable supervillains. As the brainchild of Bob Kane and Bill Finger, an artist and writer duo, Batman has been pounding the pavement of Gotham ever since his debut in Detective Comics in 1939. He's undergone a number of changes since his original conception ultimately becoming the brooding powerhouse we know today.

Most understand the basic tenants of Batman these days. His parents were murdered before his young eyes leading him down this path of personal vindication and pursuit of justice. Batman, in most iterations, never resorts to killing -- the one crime that separates his outlaw vigilante operations from the real criminals. Of course, it wasn't always that way. In Batman's earliest days, he had no qualms about ending the lives of baddies on the streets. Even now, some stories and films like Tim Burton's gothic take on the character depict him looking on with cold and uncaring glares as criminals meet their end. Regardless, Batman is mostly a well-established hero simply seeking justice and there are countless stories of the Caped Crusader. Let's take a look at the best among them.
