Here’s an idea for Sony. Show the freaking movie for free in every theater in the country. Dear Leader will drag the hackers in and execute them and then Sony’s secrets will be safe.

I stopped doing Sony when they started doing rootkits, so watching them get hacked holds a certain irony. Nevertheless, state terrorism has won this one.

Someone in my coffee group this morning wondered out loud if it were possible that Sony was using this as a public relations ploy to whet the appetite of the public for a not so good film and increase future sales. Possible???

These libtard weenies should dub the film in Korean language and sneakily flood the hermit nation with free DVD copies of it.

So why wouldn’t the Norks threaten Sony if they did release it on DVD as well.

Yes,I suppose they could do that.But IIRC the threats were also against theater chains.If you set off even a small bomb at two theaters,particularly those that are part of a major chain,and *nobody* would go see it.It would be harder to bomb Amazon.

Sony now has a “200 million” loss they bank against any profits in other movies.

It also distracts from the burning emails. If this had not been a female ceo, the ceo would have been gone by now.

There's one drawback to that plan: Does anyone in North Korea own a DVD player?

This is what happens when you become a nation of politically correct huggers instead of asskickers.

The same legal authority that imposes a hefty fine on you if you don’t have provable health care.

My take on this is that we’ve seen only the tip of the iceberg of the embarrassing hacked emails that were taken. I think there are much, much worse waiting on a NorKorCom hard drive, and they are acting out of quaking fear of those being leaked to the public.

I want to see everything NK has.

Corrupt regime + media enablers = give us your militarty technology or else.

Someone that has twitter should...#FO Sony Boy #@Kim Yung Dung.

Calling him kim yung dung and sony boy would drive that little creep nuts.

I don’t know how twitter works, but that hash tag message would be easy to get to ‘trend’.

"Under exactly what legal authority would any of those agencies have to order Sony to do such a thing?",

The Arab Spring/Benghazi Lies act of 2012?

“By this time next year Sony will release the first in a trilogy of the super hero movie “Comrade Kim” The newest Avenger who saves the world from imperialism”

Sharpton’s probably already approved the Project.

FWIW, there was a news report a few weeks ago that there are people getting cell phones that are just phones, with no access to other technology.
