torrent downloaded :)

Rented it off YouTube... bit disappointed that it didn't stream in HD no matter what settings I tried. Either their servers were overloaded or my Internet just sucks and I wasn't offered the option because my bandwidth/speeds are shit. Unfortunately, that's probably the last time I stream a movie rather than torrent it.

It was a great movie though, I personally love stupid films and this had me laughing almost through the whole thing.

Before you press purchase HD for 14.99 it actually said it doesnt work in HD on web browsers.. if that is what you were using

Same, gonna watch it now! :woot2:

links are popping up everywhere now. people even posting streaming sites on their facebooks, lol.

Was talking to a friend about this whole thing earlier today and an interesting point was brought up. With Sony using this as an excuse to release the film online on opening day, it's a good trial to see the viability of future movies being released both online and in theatres. Sure, people will still go to the theatre to experience the full, er, experience, but others will be just as happy to pay the price of a ticket to watch it in the comfort in their own home. Drop the price a couple dollars and film distributors suddenly have another source to tap into. True, this isn't something I'd expect to see start happening anytime soon, but it's certainly a good platform test.

As for the viral marketing angle, I honestly don't think it is one. It's possible that Sony decided to spin the hacking into something profitable, but it's extremely doubtful it was orchestrated by one of their marketing teams. Why? Because for most major theatre chains to pull a film is not just bad publicity on their behalf, it's also bad for profits. The amount of publicity that the film has received up to the point of that information being relayed to the public would have more than made up for any low seat viewings. Realistically, if a film house feels that one of their movies is going to be a bomb, they usually release it as a limited run in select theatres. After testing the waters, they'll then decide on whether to do a full release or simply pull it and send it off to VOD/print/etc. To coerce or plan with theatre chains to publicly state that they're pulling out of showing a film (and losing any potential profits) is something that I can't imagine even the most ravenous marketing team capable of pulling off..

It's available on BT now.

Movie was pretty awful. I'm usually a Seth Rogen and James Franco fan, but the plot and acting was weak, and felt their spotlight was overtaken by the supporting casts (Sook and Kim Jong Un).

As of now, the rating on Rotten Tomato is 58%, but 97% on IMDB. WTF? Lol

This movie is definitely not up to Seth Rogen standards.

Spotted Richmond night market and Lizzy Caplan with glasses hnnnnnnng

people that look at movies this way must not be able to enjoy a hell of a lot.. for fuck sakes. its a comedy, just take it for what its worth and roll with it.

i thought it wasn't bad, there couple of minty scenes for sure lol.

It wasn't even funny.

sure thing debbie downer.

typical Rogan character...
goofy dude trying to make an "honest" living out of something

but goddamn, Franco's character was a fucking joke.. too over the top

Lots of familiar background!

Agreed, which is why I thought the movie was bad.

only 12 minutes in this movie and james franco is trying too hard holy fuck.

doesn't feel like this movie matches to "this is the end" already... but im just 12 minutes in what do i know...

This Is The End >>>>>>>>>>>> The Interview

I found the movie funny. Didn't expect much

By far this was the worst Seth Rogen/Even Goldberg film

That's because the screenplay wasn't written by Rogen/Goldberg...

movie was awful....thank god its free.

glad i didn't buy this,got it for free from torrents...
4/10 - it wasn't really awful,Just mediocre...watched the red band trailer on YouTube and they showed some of the funny parts already so i was expecting it.
lot of hype into this movie for nothing it seems,i think Seth Rogen is turning into a shitty actor now that his comedy is getting wore out by crap movies.
think adam sandler when he did movies like 'Little Nicky'

I thought Seth Rogen was still pretty funny, but man... Franco was cringey

It was good


















Because it was free!
