All tag results for 'the hobbit'

Well, this is relief to hear!

Kate Middleton's recently-announced pregnancy has already been a difficult one, given the severe morning sickness that resulted in a hospital stay, the suicide of an on-staff nurse who was tricked by an Australian radio station into divulging private information about her condition, and missed appearances at both the British Military Tournament AND the premiere of The Hobbit!

However, the Duchess of Cambridge is FINALLY feeling ready to re-join the masses, and is set to appear tonight - the first since the announcement of her pregnancy - at BBC's Sports Personality of the Year Awards in London, at which she'll

12 million at 12 o'clock has a pretty nice ring to it.

But The Hobbit went for the baker's dozen, grossing a record-breaking $13 million at its midnight screenings Thursday night!

This pales in comparison to the midnight grosses of Harry Potter or Twilight, but it's not bad for a book that was written 75 years ago!

Tolkien fans around the country took An Unexpected Journey, setting it on the path to breaking the December opening weekend record as well.

Thirteen million marks the most a December midnight release has ever made, only topping the previous record by The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King.

So Peter Jackson, we're happy and sad for you!

Would it be possible for The Hobbit to have a major premiere in every city in the world?

Because we want to see Cate Blanchett on the red carpet as much as possible!

Gorgeous Galadriel gleamed in a Givenchy gown fit for an elven queen at the UK premiere of the film on Wednesday.

We can't stop staring at her!

The stunning backless Riccardo Tisci frock featured long buttoned sleeves, a thigh-high slit, and metallic epaulet accents on the shoulders.

Just like the Rodarte gown she wore in Dubai, this is an outfit that only a select few could pull off, and Cate pulls it off with flying colors!

The 43-year-old actress accessorized with a white clutch, Van Cleef & Arpels diamond ring, and Givenchy sandals with a clear vinyl vamp and wooden cone-shaped heels.

Excuse us while we pick our jaw up off the floor!

Is this the smartest royal couple or is this the smartest royal couple???

They're super in love, but they totally know when to have a 'me-party' too!

Okay… so maybe Kate Middleton's morning sickness had a lil' something to do with Prince William going to The Hobbit premiere solo… maybe.

But still. They're taking some valuable time to themselves. And that's essential to any relationship!!

Making his appearance at Odeon in London's Leicester Square, Willz mingled with some filmmakers and where he met filmmakers and stars Sir Ian McKellen and Cate Blanchett.

The future King said Kate would have loved to have been there if she was feeling better. Aww… next time!!

You. Shall not. Pass.

Seriously, Sir Ian McKellen, you're too darn friendly and talented and charming and totally awesome as Gandalf the Grey to ever pass!

The 73 year-old British icon revealed sad news recently: he has prostate cancer!

And the X-Men/Lord of the Rings has battled it for the better part of a decade!

Thankfully, the man is a trooper and he wont let the terrifying C-word get him down!

Ian revealed:

Aww poor, poor Kate Middleton!

After all the stress and devastation Prince William's wife has been through over the past week, taking a trip to Middle Earth to visit everyone's favorite little people (sorry Snow White dwarves!) would have been a magical way to unwind…

But it seems that Kate's hyperemesis gravidarum AKA reallly horrible morning sickness is back with a vengeance, thus the Duchess has decided to NOT attend London's Hobbit premiere on Wednesday.

A rep for the couple explains:
