Richard Armitage: 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' box office numbers could be big MICHAEL RECHTSHAFFEN, SPECIAL TO QMI AGENCY (TORONTO SUN)
HOLLYWOOD -- How big might The Hobbit be?
If you were to have asked author J.R.R. Tolkien, he would have told you that the Hobbit stands somewhere between 2 and 4-feet tall, with their average height being 3'6".
Ask a seasoned industry observer and they'll likely tell you the sky's the limit.
Warner Bros., the studio releasing The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, is obviously thinking along those lofty lines.
On Wednesday advance tickets to the first installment in Peter Jackson's anticipated trilogy went on sale a full five weeks ahead of the movie's official Dec. 14 opening.
In the first day, the on-line ticket seller, Fandango reported that The Hobbit claimed 33% of total sales, knocking advance sales for The Twilight Saga finale off the top spot for the first time since Oct. 1.
