Here’s the latest news for those either attending the World Premiere for The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, or for those planning to watch the live stream:
If you’re attending, Warner Bros. will be issuing wrist bands on Sunday 30th November from 12noon. Access to red carpet ‘pens’ will be based on wrist band numbers – and camping out in Leicester Square over night will NOT be permitted. Read details here.
On Monday 1st December, the live stream from the red carpet will begin at 5.30pm (GMT). You can tweet comments or questions for cast using the hash tag #OneLastTime. Details here.
Don’t forget TORn’s pub moot at Waxy O’Connor’s, 6pm on Sunday 30th. There will be some television and press folks there, hoping to chat with fans, and we’ll have prizes for the best costumes. Find us in the Cottage Bar – if you’re lost, look for the gal with pink hair and a ‘greendragon’ tshirt! Details here.
Only a couple of days to go…

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce has announced that the 2,538th Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame will go to Peter Jackson in a ceremony to be held on Monday, December 8 at 11:30am. The star will be located at 6801 Hollywood Blvd in front of the Dolby Theater, with the ceremony taking place in that same location. Andy Serkis will be the guest speaker with additional celebrities in the form of Orlando Bloom, Evangeline Lilly, Lee Pace, Luke Evans, Richard Armitage and Elijah Wood. With all these folks in Hollywood that day, it now seems pretty clear that the previously supposed New York premiere on the same date is no longer happening.
Everyone at TheOneRing.net would like to issue Sir Peter Jackson a heartfelt congratulations, you will always be welcome at any and all of our fan events. After all, you helped create this thriving community of fans we foster on TORn.
The complete press release can be read below. Continue reading “Peter Jackson to receive a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame”

Just a week to go until the World Premiere of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies in London’s Leicester Square! TheOneRing.net will be there – and don’t forget, we’re holding a pub moot the night before.
We’ll be gathering with fellow fans at Waxy O’Connor’s, near Leicester Square. The good folks at Waxy’s are reserving the ‘Cottage Bar’ as a private space for us – our own cosy hobbit hole complete with fireplace! We’ll be there from 6pm to closing.
No need to buy tickets for this event – just show up on the night! Waxy’s have an excellent menu, so you can buy dinner there – and of course their well-stocked bar will be open. This is a simple event – basically just show up to the pub, buy yourself a pint and chat with fellow fans!
We will have prizes for the best costumes, so you are warmly encouraged to show up in Middle-earth finery!
And you never know who may show up to a TORn party… Hope to see you there – The Cottage Bar at Waxy O’Connor’s, 14-16 Rupert Street, 6pm, Sunday 30th November.
[Please note: because of pub licensing laws, you must be 18 or over to attend this event. Sorry!]
