| Sony Pictures Hack
I can't find another thread on this. If there is please delete this one. Today they announced the movie the Interview has been officially canned amongst threats to blow up theaters which showed the movie.
Another huge leak is suppose to happen as well on December 25th.
Thoughts?

ugh. | Well it would be the same if lets say North Korea made a movie about going to the White House on a tour and than killing the President. The movie is pretty much shitting on North Korea and their leader. We can think of North Korea however we want but people living their think hes the next coming of Jesus

I really don't think it would get the same kind of reaction. People wouldn't die over it.

This is a real damn shame, god knows how much anti-american shit they force on the people of North Korea that we don't know about.
Kim-Jong Il never had a problem with Team America, to this extent, at least.
Unfortunately this makes him look really good to his people now. "Wow, our leader has the power to control the Americans."
This was bound to happen, as soon as they started with the bomb threats. Just like at a sporting event scheduled in an arena set to be full of people, if someone calls in a threat, they have no choice but to postpone or cancel.
This is a pretty big embarrassment for Sony, and a big financial loss. It's a shame he got away with this.
EDIT: That being said, I'm pretty sure the movie is awful. Seth Rogen films are pretty painful to watch.

I still think it looks decent...
As for the cancellation of the movie, I think it sets a scary precedent moving forward...

I just think the whole thing is obsurd. to be that upset over a dumb movie that won't impact anything or anyone. the target audience is a bunch of stoners... who even cares.

they (the hackers) probably have a lot of sensitive information that would make all the high level execs look REALLY bad.
they're not saving people...
they're saving their own asses from looking like whatever outrageous things they've said in private emails and pictures... the public would probably crucify them for being "racist/misogynist/hater/etc..."... stock tank.
its purely self interest. the shame they'll receive from their own people, will be worse than making any amount of money from that movie.

Obviously not a risk that can be taken, but from what I know, there's no credible source the hackers are from or related to North Korea.
It could be a bunch of hackers trolling. The threats of physical destruction could just be a big bluff.

| North Korea Behind Sony Hack: U.S. Officials - NBC News Sony Has ?No Further Release Plans? for ?The Interview? | Variety Quote: |
Sony Pictures Entertainment has chosen to stand down for “The Interview,” deciding against releasing the Seth Rogen-James Franco comedy in any form — including VOD or DVD, as U.S. officials reportedly link Sony’s massive cyber attack to North Korea.
| Quote: |
Source tells @NBCNews that a New Regency/Fox film about N. Korea, titled “Pyongyang" & starring Steve Carell, has been shut down.

I could care less about this film like any other painfully awful Seth Rogan film but I'm disgusted with Sony, what a spineless, coward move to cave into these cyber terrorist, you never give in to terrorist, just justifying terrorist actions.

There may be lots wrong with Sony, but... credit where credit is due.
