#BREAKING New message to @Sony top execs from hackers: "very wise" decision to scrap movie from theaters via @CNN @brianstelter #SonyHack

[annieokie]

Sounds to me like Sony has a lot of dirty laundry that it doesn’t want to be made public......

Dirty Laundry is just what is the NORM now, the public elects these types. It is what so much of the PUBLIC is today and they like DIRT. So what's to be afraid of, it's a SELLER.

Just curious........

[for-q-clinton]

Yep next they are going to make them make a movie showing how North Korea is a great country and it’s the US and South Korea that is causing all their problems.

[Viennacon]

no way. Attacking conservatives is worth movie theaters getting bombed. North Korea is after all, an ideological ally of Hollyweird

[Califreak]

I don’t own a cellphone but if I buy one I want a jitterbug so I can see the damned numbers! (I’m over fifty)

[cripplecreek]

I smell cybersecurity legislation and taxes coming.

[usurper]

This only prolongs the agony

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.

Castro is expected to play a supporting role.

“Now that North Korea has taken over Hollywood will they as for their Cut and Pro Kim Jong-un movies ? LOL”

I am guessing the remake of Pork Chop Hill will have us suffering a massive defeat.

Some industries as much as possible might need to go the Battlestar Galactica route. Only non-networked mini-computers unless absolutely necessary.

[Gay State Conservative]

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

Perhaps I should have put that word in quotation marks.The government may not have the authority to *order* such a thing but you can be sure that government officials could remind Sony of the unpleasant consequences of failing to comply.

Also consider the Japanese government.Japan is,understandably,even more frightened of NK than we are.Who knows what powers Japan might have over a huge multinational corporation headquartered in Tokyo!

Oh please.. if we had a MAN in the WH instead of a petulant little femboy, the movie would be shown in theaters with everyone encouraged to show their support for the Constitution by seeing the movie and we’d be PREPARED to neutralize any threat NK could make. This is what America would’ve done 7 years ago.. We all know what changed.

[dfwgator]

Dirty Laundry is just what is the NORM now, the public elects these types.

We all know that crap is king.

[EQAndyBuzz]

Sony will probably make more money off the movie if it isn’t released than if it was.

Someone mentioned putting it online for free and suggesting a five dollar donation. Sony should do that and say all donations will be going to Feeding the people in North Korea.

[Lurker]

Thanks. It was a serious question. Appreciate the response.

Best,

Hey, remember when Christians threatened to kill people when “Last Temptation” was released? Or “Life of Brian”?

Remember when Republicans threatened to kill the director of “Death of a President”, that showed George W Bush being murdered? Or when they put a bounty out on Michael Moore for “Fahrenheit 9/11”?

Remember when conservatives put Julianne Moore’s life in danger for her false portrayal of Sarah Palin in “Game Change”?

No? Seems as though the hatemongers AREN’T in the Tea Party or the churches or on the right side of the political spectrum......no, the hate comes from LEFTISTS, liberals, and Islamists. And don’t you DARE say anything that comports with Judeo-Christian morality and ethics. You WILL be targeted for destruction.

Hate emanates from the left.

Period. Full stop. End of story.

[annieokie]

See, we agree, so what's the problem with blackmail theory? Everybody does it is the NORM now.

By the way, that Crap King..........hopefully for only 2 more years.

[moehoward]

I’m sure someone over at Sony thought of putting it out on Youtube. It would be the perfect end run. SO why haven’t they?

The answer is obvious. This isn’t about this movie anymore than that stupid video caused Benghazi. Sony is being blackmailed plain and simple.

[Half Vast Conspiracy]

Bravo

[Gay State Conservative]

I think the aircraft carriers are a better first response than "ordering" that it be shown.The leaders of NK are bat $shit crazy.Is there *anything* that a sane citizen of an advanced industrialized country (South Korea,Japan,the United States for example) would put past them?

And for the record...I fully intend to buy the bluray of this film when it's released...something I wouldn't consider doing in a million years if this stuff hadn't occurred.In fact I might have even gone to see it in a theater...and I haven't been inside a movie theater in 10+ years.

[dfwgator]

The Russians actually did protest Red Dawn when it came it.

And of course we all know what happened to the terrible remake when they had to change them from the ChiComs to the Norks.

Now the only way the movie will get made is if the enemy consists of Tea Party members.

[dfwgator]

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

It will be easier to find copies of “Song of the South” than this movie.
