Jason Sudeikis, Bill Hader, Taran Killam, Kate McKinnon, Jeremy Renner, and Bobby Moynihan (Photo by: Dana Edelson/NBC)The Hulk smashes, Iron Man has that cool suit that allows him to fly and fight, Captain America is a super-soldier, and Thor is a demigod with a hammer, but what exactly can Hawkeye do? The Avengers is a collection of heroes with incredible fighting skills…and then there’s Black Widow who looks pretty in tight black leather and Hawkeye who shoots arrows. Hawkeye’s skill set doesn’t match up to his Avengers cohorts, and this skit from the November 17, 2012 episode of Saturday Night Live pokes fun at the fact that Hawkeye (played by Jeremy Renner on screen and in the skit) really can’t do anything once he runs out of arrows.
