Sony hack takes a very serious turn

[airplanemechanic]

Yea, but they still make kickass TV's.

Go Bravia!

 

[TooTall]

Things just took a very serious turn (not that the hacking was to be taken lightly)

This may be just a threat/scare tactic to keep asses out of the seats for this film or some serious shit is about to go down.

I don't know how I feel at this point. My first reaction is that theatre's should just call it off, pull the film. The possibility of losing a lot of lives--or a few lives-- for a silly movie is just not worth it. On the other hand, nothing could happen. I don't know folks, is it worth it?

Sony Hackers Threaten People Who See The Interview Invoke 9 11

I try not to take anything posted on Huffingglue too seriously.

That said, yielding to terrorists is the worst possible move. IF the threat is credible, then we should launch a preemptive nuclear strike on Pyongyang. It has to be nuclear because unless they are crushed in the first wave, they will use Nukes on Seoul.

And really, isn't it long past time for North Korea to cease to exist?

We should check with Israel to see if the threat is credible, since they have a competent administration and intelligence system. Then move very quickly to neuter then snarling little beast.

There are a few pubs reporting on it (Mashable, Variety) Sony Hackers Threaten 9 11 Attack on Movie Theaters That Screen 8216 The Interview 8217 Variety

Probably more as the day goes on.

I get what you're saying about yielding to these terrorist threats and agree to a point BUT what if something does happen and American's lose their lives? Was it worth it? I think there comes a time when we have to set aside our pride and do the RESPONSIBLE thing. Then again there's repercussion's to that decision as well.

As I type this out I think I found my answer and you touched on it. If they determine the threat is credible they should pull it, go on the offensive, eliminate the threat and release it a little later. If its nothing but hot air release it.

One thing is for certain I do think this will have a very serious impact on theatre's that are playing it. People will steer clear of them and go to another theatre that isn't playing it and see something else.

In other words, let the terrorists win.

Theater Cancels New York Premiere of The Interview The Two-Way NPR and now the premier along with the actors promotion has been canceled. I'm surprised but not...

What pussies!

This would not have been cancelled in Giuliani's New York.

But it would in Georgia.

Carmike Cinemas, a Columbus, Georgia-based movie theater chain with theaters in 41 states, has elected not to show The Interview, according to The Hollywood Reporter. A rep for the chain did not immediately respond to a request for comment from BuzzFeed News.

If FattyJong Fuck got a missile that acutally landed, there would be no Fatty Jong Fuck anymore. He would be blown to smithereens. Oh. Wait. Sorry. I keep living in the past when the USA was strong and had good leadership.

And when was that, Goofy?

Any time before Obama apologized for being strong.

I wonder if Obama apologized to Bin Laden before he turned him into shark food....

Sounds like the whole thing is a publicity stunt to gin up interest in a sucky movie.

Disney never had to do this with the "Toy Story" franchise.

Also, NK is yet more fruit of the poisoned "Dems working for Communists", McCarthy tried to warn us about.

Seriously 12 pages and crazy Frank is the only one who gets it? Everything from scripts to completed movies were supposedly stolen and released to the public yet no one can provide any links where they can be downloaded.

On Morning Joe they were saying the NY Times lawyers were advising the Times NOT to print any of the hacked e-mails from Sony. They say they were illegally obtained. I wonder where those same lawyers were when they went nuts about something that TMZ got caused Donald Serling to lose the LA Clippers and the Times jumped on the bandwagon.

Since Obama didn't do that, there is no reason to wonder.

Of course he didn't; his manicurist gave the order while Obama played golf in his sleep with his feet on his desk - duh!

Any President would have given the order. It was a no-brainer. You implied that Obama did it and that is BS. He would have apologized to Osama for the World Trade Center buildings being so tall that they got in the way of his hijacked airplanes if he had been there.

You give terrorist comfort with your fear & cowardice

....annnnnnnd thats why we have to torture. Out of fear because....wait...Comfort? Cowardice?

Why didn't "but .. but .. BOOOSH" do it, then?

If you think that Obama had NOTHING to do with this your being dishonest. Bill O'Reilly tried to infer that Obama was not going into Pakistan to get bin Laden, guess your guy was wrong so now, going in was not that big of a deal? Good job changing gears.

 

[Uncensored2008]

so you're ok with a loss of life when it knowingly could have been avoided? (Again this is only under the hypothetical that intelligence knew of a real and credible threat)

What you write really highlights the decline of our nation. The WWII generation, when faced with a threat, rushed machine gun nests to protect and secure liberty.No one asked if we were "ok with the loss of life," it was part of our culture that liberty was worth dying for. Now we entertain surrender to a two bit nest of thugs and gangsters for fear that they might engage in terrorist acts.

 

[Uncensored2008]

Man, if they are this upset over a dumb comedy just wait till my love story comes out with Kim Jong-un getting sodomized by Dennis Rodman.

That would just be art following life....

The USA didn't rush to machine gun nests. Most Americans wanted nothing to do with ww2. FDR dragged them kicking and screaming.

That you know nothing of history is of little surprise.

No doubt you claim the films of Normandy are faked and those were really brave Russians storming the beach...

No, but nice deflection. It's sad that you are so stupid.

I didn't say or imply that Obama had nothing to do with it. I said it was a no brainer to give the order. O'Reilly is not my guy, and you know good and well that Bush would have given that order if he had had intel where OBL was.
