Check out the scene for yourself below!
Justin Bieber kicked off his first 'Saturday Night Live' hosting gig with a seasonal tribute.
You can't expect classic comic book heroes like Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman to act “super” all the time, can you? Even superheroes have to brush their teeth, pick their noses, scratch themselves down there, and pound back a few pints every now and then.
Movie toy lines have a nasty habit of revealing too much information about the movies on which they're based. Either that, or we all just read too much into them.
