It will definitely get crazier! As it is now, the Hobbit board is clocking in at well over 300 posts per day.  But, if we didn't enjoy it (and weren't a bit crazy  ), we wouldn't be here. So, let the craziness begin!!
It does help that 99% of the people here are amazing, funny, and know how to play well with others. So, thank all of YOU too!

is a distinct possibility. Though, would they? Are the studios and the premiere organisers suitable insured?

I hope the event planners are suitably prepared and put all local clinics and hospitals on alert! Perhaps if they hand out brown paper bags as the fans arrive, they can mitigate the risk. Those paper bags better be plain. Any embellishments might set the thralls off prematurely

Speaking of Twitter...James Nesbitt is now tweeting!

He just started earlier today, using @JamesNesbittUK.
So now we have 9 Dwarves tweeting - Thorin, Fili, Dwalin, Ori, Nori, Gloin, Bombur, Dain,and now Bofur - and two Elves (Thranduil and Tauriel) and two Men (Bard and Alfrid) and one Orc (Azog), and of course one Wizard.
Did I miss anyone?
With the Hobbit hoopla about to start, Twitter should be busy!

it's so providential that you attached this news to Eruvandi's post, dernwyn, just cos of Eruvandi's purveying Bofur's joyous brows of 2xentendre in TA. So apt!

It was a fake...so Jimmy Nesbitt has countered by setting up his own, real site, @TheJamesNesbitt. And of course, he's following his fellow Dwarves (and some other really wonderful actors!)
