So they are now demanding that this movie never come out on DVD, blu ray, or on demand...
But they never mentioned Beta Max!
Score one for Sony.

Seriously, you'll see Jerry Lewis's holocaust clown movie before you see this one.

I think Sony is in a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. I don't think North Korea would actually have any way of harming theaters that show the movie, but at the same time if they went through with releasing the movie and attacks actually did happen, the company get so much heat for releasing the film still and putting people in harm's way. Just release it on demand so people can still see it and pay for it.

Just wait till Seth Rogan's next film hits dvd and stick the film on there as an (unadvertised) easter egg.

My assumption had always been that North Korea paid someone in China to do it for them all along, so this would not be remotely surprising to me.

No question that China had something to do with this as well. Or, at least some Chinese citizens. North Korea as a country is a dump, they would not have been able to pull something like this off without help and China has been at the forefront of Cyber warfare for a while. The relationship between North Korea and China is that of a wrestling manager and a monster heel. North Korea talks a whole lot of shit and that's because they know they have a monster military power right behind them to back them up should someone call them out. Without the monster standing behind them, the manager is cannon fodder for his enemies. Same thing with North Korea. Without China, nothing stops South Korea from making the North theirs.

According to CNN, North Korea have also threatened to attack Disney unless Billy Dee Williams is added to the new Star Wars movie, even if it's only a cameo.

I don't blame them for pulling the film. If something would have happened, then they would have received some serious heat.

If any North Korean hackers are browsing this site, let me make it very clear I support the Leader and his reign of glory, and condemn the insolence of Seth Rogan and James Franco who should both be arrested and imprisoned in Penyon....Pynon...Peyonga.....the capital of North Korea.

I know it's probably posted on here somewhere. But on Facebook I saw a friend post a meme of Kim Jong Un sitting next to a computer, the caption above says: "Now, tell Sony to give Spider-Man back to Marvel." Kind of amusing and ironic. Maybe that's next?

Also, from what I understand Florida Georgia Line's upcoming single is about an unnatural sexual relationship between your glorious leader, one or more of his relatives, and a baboon. Please take whatever action against them you deem appropriate.

Yeah but I doubt North Korea would of actually followed up on the threat like killing bunch of people in movie theaters all across the states would of probably caused a war. I doubt North Korea is willing to die and go to war with the US over a Seth Rogen movie
