You probably didn't realize you needed to watch Stephen Colbert dance to the entirety of Daft Punk's 'Get Lucky,' but you do. It certainly doesn't hurt that some of his friends show up, especially when his friends include Hugh Laurie, Jeff Bridges, Matt Damon and Bryan Cranston.

Stephen Colbert continues to show he's a class act.

Last week, Stephen Colbert's mother passed away. On last night's episode of 'The Colbert Report,' the host offered a loving tribute to her in a rare out-of-character moment. You will probably need tissues. There is a strong chance that you will cry...

A few weeks ago, director Peter Jackson held an online Q&A and preview for the upcoming 'The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug.'

We're finding out a lot about 'The Hobbit' movie this week, thanks to the latest issue of The Hollywood Reporter.
