North Korea frightens US Movie theaters and Sony, The Interview release is Canceled !

[idunnobrah]

So it's official, we not negotiate with terrorists. Not only do we negotiate with them, we give them whatever the fuk they want

This movie had zero potential anyway. Wouldnotseeforfree/10

This logic is stupid brah. Our GOVERNMENT does not negotiate with terrorists. A privately owned company made a decision for PR. Had something happened and people lost their lives Sony would be perceived as having blood on their hands.

This thread reminds me of people who cry "blha blah freedom of speech blah blah" when some duck dynasty guy gets fired by his employer.

In b4 negs, Sony made the logical choice. Get over it *******s.

[lntense]

Lmao, they're generating so much hype for this they will profit millions once it's release.

Go them! Would watch/5

[Hercegovac8]

Idk how I feel about all of this

I'm happy because I hate Seth Rogen with a passion but it's also unnerving how easily N.Korea shut down one of the most powerful entities in the USA

I'm starting to think NKorea isn't as poverty as what we are lead to believe. Watching those N Korean military ex exercises reminded me of nazi Germany, combined with how Kim Jung un and his family are perceived as Gods over there and how they are avid believers of keeping their bloodlines pure, that whole country scares the fuk out of me

the amount of threads being made/10 is scary.

"It would seem that most mainstream news outlets are trying to start a media frenzy by feeding people false information and half quotes. The release of the film has NOT been cancelled, as those who bothered to read Sony's original statement already know. The film has merely been delayed until after the holiday season."

[Darkhare]

Land of the sorta free and home of the somewhat brave...

LOL

Sorry merica brahs but this is kinda sad. At least here in Canada we KNOW we are wimps... The big bad USA just cancelled events because of some nerds behind a computer screen.

[Appliance]

North Korea no doubt has connections in China.

China is the one propping them up. You think a ****hole country like North Korean can survive completely isolated from the world?

[StrikingMoose]

Seth Rogen has been acting annoying since the hack. Dude's talking about holding media liable for printing it. That we are morally guilty if we read the emails. Shut up dude, jesus.

I guarantee you he fapped hard during fappening

[LieutenantGains]

Yeah it sucks Sony caved in like a bunch of poosays but what did they expect when they made a movie about assassinating a current world leader? Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

[j1nevertogthr]

This is fukking horse chit, literally the only plan I had made before going to basic training on the 29th

[NoBrahdy]

betas gonna beta

best korea stylin all over america

[j1nevertogthr]

what the **** im ready to go to war with north korea

Let's do it, brah
Me and you, we'll wreck those manlet bastards then make Kim jong un watch this movie over and over while he starves to death

[SigmundFreud]

Maybe North Korea did this, maybe not. I am skeptical until Kim Jong Un says himself that they did this. The Kim family is always upfront so if they did it they will brag.

[Killer Wolf]

I don't know why people keep talking about it like its the US government who's giving in to their demands. Its private business owners who don't want the liability if something actually did happen.

[SageKing]

Yeah it sucks Sony caved in like a bunch of poosays but what did they expect when they made a movie about assassinating a current world leader? Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

I don't get why people keep on insisting that Sony gave in. They got hacked and still had the balls to keep going.

All the major theatres backed out so they can't air it. What do you want then to do?

[BullStampede]

We are a country of fukking pussies.

this. Wasnt even going to watch it but this is just stupid.

Most Americans aren't free or brave. We're the laughing stock and bitch boy of the world. This just backs that up

Speak for yourself

[EzzyBreazy]

LOL

It wasn't America that wimped.out it was the theaters and Sony. Sony isn't even a American company so know what your talking about.

[CrazySerbian]

Disappointed by our cousins in the south. That's something Sweden would do.

[djbalance]

can america please drop a nuke on north korea, also a few snackbar countries while you're at it

[LimitBreak]

Lmao, they're generating so much hype for this they will profit millions once it's release.

Go them! Would watch/5

Unless it goes straight to DVD !

[CHICKWOOD]

Hopefully another hacker group hacks Sony and releases this movie so we can all watch it. That would put Sony in an interesting pickle.

This post was brought to you by Vlasic Pickles: "Thats the tastiest crunch I've ever heard."

[Briangumble]

Doesn't North Korea routinely show propaganda films about the U.S.?

[ausman!]

not surprising, the millions they made from this movie would not have changed anything....Its a PR nightmare for Sony.

-They have now burnt a ton of bridges with actors/directors from the leaks.
-A few of there movies are released on the web
-Script leaks including the new James Bond movie. We know for certain what happens in it.
-One of the biggest franchise they own - Spiderman is up sh!t creek and the email leaks have shown they have no idea what to do with this franchise.
-Leak of employee data etc


This is after all the issues Sony Entertainment has with a huge loss of income.

[Deezenutz]

It's actually not North Korea, it's a group called Guardians of Peace.

[LimitBreak]

It wasn't America that wimped.out it was the theaters and Sony. Sony isn't even a American company so know what your talking about.

Sony Pictures is separate from SONY, it's a subsidiary of a subsidiary !! and it is an american company, a California studio..

"Sony Pictures Entertainment (SPE) is a subsidiary of Sony Entertainment Inc., a subsidiary of Tokyo-based Sony Corporation. SPE's global operations encompass motion picture production, acquisition and distribution; television production, acquisition and distribution; television networks; digital content creation and distribution; operation of studio facilities; and development of new entertainment products, services and technologies."

"SONY PICTURES STUDIOS: The company's main lot in Culver City, CA features 22 sound stages ranging in size from more than 7,600 square feet to the world�s second-largest stage at roughly 43,000 square feet. The studio lot provides integrated digital capabilities to create and deliver content across existing and emerging media and markets."

Don't even care, it's still lulzy that us in the west had to cave no matter what circumstances.

[pkbrah]

no one fuks with North Korea

[Mr.Marvel]

In b4 this is a ruse and the movie just really sucked.

[WarrNation]

Still retarded. You don't totally cave in and shut down because of terrorist threats.

BRB, terrorists threaten us if we have elections.... we decide no more elections
BRB, terrorists threaten us if we keep driving cars.... we ban using public streets
BRB, terrorists threaten us if we feed our cats... we let them drive us crazy with meowing

You can't just give in to terror man

From a business point of view, I can understand why all the major cinemas in the US pulled the movie. The risks FAR outweighed the benefits. Let's be honest, the movie sucked and wasn't gonna bring in any money, that's why they decided not to show it.

brb show the the movie and something bad happens at one of the movie theatre.
brb cinema company is faced with several lawsuits and goes bankrupt as a result.

Take all that risk for what? For a movie that was gonna flop anyways?

[andrew28]

this.

i hate how seth rogan and everyone bitching about this whole fiasco are so naive to think that making a movie about assassinating a current world leader isn't gonna piss them off. im not saying they're gonna try and nuke us over a silly movie but it's like...how the fuk did you expect north korea to react?

[Zyonasan]

Don't forget the hackers had all sorts of info on major celebrities and Sony pictures. Such as SSN numbers of movie actors/actresses/employees, private emails which contained some embarrassing comments. Sony would've had so many lawsuits against them and spent a lot of time/money in court. The movie looked like a flop so the only rational thing would be to cancel its release.

With Rogan and Franco as the stars, it would have at least broke even in sales and that would be before DVD sales.
