"The Dark Game of Hobbit Knight Thrones"
This week Stephen Colbert did some "Lord of the Rings" cosplay and wrote about the new movie "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" as a guest editor at "Entertainment Weekly."
On Thursday night, things got even weirder.
Smaug the dragon (voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch) stopped by his set for a chat – or at least his massive head did.
In the 7-minute interview we learn some important things: that he has eaten the ladies of "The View," he was offered a role on "Sherlock" but turned it down because he said hates that "hack" Cumberbatch, he supports stand-your-ground laws (especially when it comes to Bilbo Baggins) and he supports Rand Paul for president in 2016.
He also slammed some of the other big dragons in TV and movies – including Daenerys' three children and Toothless from "How to Train Your Dragon."
Bilbo, Gandalf, Thorin and friends lay the lyrical beat down
Ned the pie-maker (AKA Lee Pace) is looking quite...elfy as Thranduil (AKA Legolas' daddy) in Peter Jackson's The Hobbit.
No matter how lustrous that blonde wig, those eyebrows will always reign supreme. Maybe that's why Thranduil is the Elvenking of Mirkwood.
