Nah, decision was made by Japan. NK was threatening a cyberattack or hostage taking against Japan, which would be enough to get the Japanese to pressure heavily for the Americans to cave while finding a way to make money off caving.

I think the world needs a good Great Dictator revival.

is there an article or something that says it wasnt sony pictures decision and hirai pulled it or are you just claiming poo poo

The Interview was projected to do bad even before the hack and afterwards it looked even worse. This lets Sony dump the movie while deflecting the blame towards the Wusses in Congress

sorry this is dumb and wrong

ivory tower hollywood elite thought theyd get some easy money and laughs at the expense of an insane dictator. insane dictator instead pulls some of the finest insane dictator moves ever and just destroys them. very satisfying imo

Hollywood executives throw pitch by State and relevant security agencies first, get greenlight. Foreign nation launches unprecedented terrorist attack against America. Japanese executive falls on his sword over dishonor.

Its how you climb the gently caress'n ladder.


Not really, though? Blowback was to be expected. Threatening your distribution chain and individual executives with death of them and their families if the movie went through? Probably prepared for as a contingency with digital distributorship set up in case that were to occur, with USGov backing.

do you have an article about this being a decision by sony corporate and not sony pictures or not?

lol the US government is saying North Korea did actually do the hack

http://money.cnn.com/2014/12/17/media/the-interview-sony-theater-owners/index.html?hpt=hp_t1

U.S. investigators say an announcement pinning the blame on hackers working for the Pyongyang regime could come as soon as Thursday.
