I feel like discussing something different today and something interesting caught my attention. So what from what I've been hearing and seeing from the internet is that movie "The Interview" (for those of you who haven't heard of it http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2788710/ ) was cancelled for release because the dictator of North Korea Kim Jung-un, basically started getting all bitchy about the movie. So it's release was cancelled. Some time later after Obama's last conference of the year, I found out that they're re-releasing the movie on Christmas day. I did some snooping and I found something interesting. Apparently Sony stated that originally when the movie was first being released they had only plans to release the movie to a few hundred indie theaters. Now that the movie is being re-released, they have plans to release the movie to "the largest possible audience".
From all that I only got 1 thing: Sony's taking a shot at North Korea. It's like Sony is attempting to force North Korea to acknowledge that Sony is still releasing the movie. But that's just my opinion. Now I have a few questions.
Do you think movies like "The Interview" should even be allowed to be created (especially when it involves real world leaders names and to stretch it even farther, a movie about their assassination?)
How do you think North Korea is gonna respond to this, or even if they already know, how do you think they're reacting right now?
I'm out of questions about the topic so here's a bonus unrelated one: Would you go see a movie on Christmas Day? ( I look at Christmas as sort of a chill day so I don't really ever leave the house)
