I've been in a state of tears or near tears for the last hour thanks to Moon.
I think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
All six movies played at the same time. Just the beginning with all the theme songs on top of each other with some slightly out of sync is hilarious.

We watched The Hobbit last night. Mal had a map of Middle-Earth spread out on his lap for most of it, except when he needed to hide from trolls. He thought the wargs looked like dinosaurs, which made me think megafauna, and a little Google later it appears that the wargs are a mix of megafauna, while Thranduil's war moose is an Irish elk (which is apparently neither Irish nor an elk).
This time I was even more blown away by Martin Freeman's performance.
Why was Benedict Cumberbatch credited?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
He is Smaug.
And the Necromancer.

This one! I knew he was the voice of Smaug, but Smaug doesn't really say anything in this movie.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Smaug doesn't really say anything in this movie.
Neither does the Necromancer! Either he's being credited for the trilogy, or he did 3 seconds of mocap for that shadow in the doorway.

This has been in debate on Tumblr recently, actually. Err, if the shadow is mocap Cumberbatch, that is.
The Necromancer does make some sort of vocalization thing. I could pull the disc out of my pocket and check (don't ask) to make sure I'm not misremembering, but I'm lazy.

Or Jackson likes instigating games of "Who is that under all that makeup? I saw his name in the credits, he has to be there somewhere."

For reasons that make perfect sense to me, there are those who claim his outline is recognizable as a CGIed shadow figure.
Which... yeah, okay. It did kind of look like him.
(Due to Frankenstein, large portions of the fandom are quite familiar with the outline.)
