In a statement to NBC News released hours after the movie's New York City premier, which had been scheduled for Thursday at the Lower East Side's Landmark’s Sunshine Cinemas, Sony said it opted to cancel the film entirely because many theaters refused to show it. The comedy has been the target of hackers who have leaked thousands of private emails from the cinema giant.
"We respect and understand our partners' decision and, of course, completely share their paramount interest in the safety of employees and theater-goers," the statement said.
I realize we have freedom of everything in this country ... and, the freedom to do STUPID STUFF in the hopes of cashing in and making big bucks. I do now know a lot about North Korea. I know that their leader ..... considers himself a good friend of Dennis Rodman. That alone would raise a flag on my file cabinet. What little I know, he does not like US .... has a considerable Army, NAVY, etc., at his disposal ...... SO WHY ..... would ANYONE ..... decide to make a movie .... reflecting badly on him. HEY GANG, LET'S MAKE A MOVIE AND ANTAGONIZE THE NORTH KOREAN LEADER and all his friends ,.... my hope would be it gets placed in an incinerator and burned and the Jackasses who came up with the idea, the money, etc., including the actors, are all put on a transport plane and flown to North Korea ...... No, I don't care what happens to them ...... perhaps make on movie on their release .... in 50 years or so ...........
