   True..  TOO much of a time block is required for those.  I rarely   
   watch a film without pausing it several times though. If it's 1am   
   and there's still 30 or 50 minutes to go, I call it quits for a while.

   The Colbert cameo is ridiculous. He's wearing a hood and an   
   eyepatch. I think the director specifically did not want to make it   
   an obvious recognizable Colbert moment. That guy loves attention.   
      
   But Sheeran had an almost 5 minute scene, a musician singing a folky   
   song on the road.  I think he was also commissioned for the theme   
   song "I See Fire", so given the opportinity to have a little fun   
   appearance in the movie too.   
      
   Sheeran was on one of those music award shows (I think it was I   
   Heart Radio) and performed a live solo song switching between   
   several instruments flawlessly. I was operating a sound board once   
   and could mess up switching between microphones and audio feeds. But   
   Sheeran operated a synth keyboard, sang, messed around with foot   
   switches, and threw in a guitar with no effort.  I never heard of   
   the guy, until 5 or 6 years ago.
