Thanks to Ringer Josiah for sending this in from EW.com:
Peter Jackson just laid the smackdown on RPatz and James Bond. Advance tickets for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, which doesn’t open in theaters until Dec. 14, went on sale on Wednesday, and if we’re speaking plainly, they crushed it. Sales for the film on Fandango accounted for 33 percent of all tickets sold that day on the ticket website, dethroning Breaking Dawn — Part 2, which had held the top spot since Oct. 1. Skyfall, the latest in the 007 franchise, placed second, with 31 percent of the day’s sales. The Twilight crew came in third, with 28 percent of the day’s take.
A while back, we announced that TheOneRing.net would be hosting the ‘Unexpected Art Show’ in Los Angeles. After speaking with all of the parties involved (and even more whom wanted to be involved but couldn’t because of the aggressive timeframe), we’ve decided to move this gathering of creatives to Oscar Party weekend! The ‘Unexpected Art Show’ will now invade Hollywood on Feb 22nd 2013 – allowing the folks attending ‘The One Expected Party’ a chance to partake in this one-of-a-kind show. Further details on the art show will be available shortly. And since we are on the topic of Oscar Party…We are just about to announce many more details! Stay tuned for all the exciting details including a headline act for the ages! (For those you who filled out our survey from last year, we haven’t forgotten you! You will receive an exclusive offer to purchase tickets first!)
