NYC Film Premiere Canceled After Threat .................................................................................. WOR710 ^ \| 12/16/14 The threat of a 9/11-style attack has caused Sony to cancel the New York premiere of its new film, “The Interview.” "Soon all the world will see what an awful movie Sony Pictures Entertainment has made. The world will be full of fear. Remember the 11th of September 2001. We recommend you to keep yourself distant from the places at that time," a note from hackers warned. The premiere was supposed to be held tomorrow night at the Sunshine Cinema in Manhattan. Sony is telling other theaters they don’t have to show the movie when it opens. “It’s actually not crystal clear whether it is a cyber response that they are threatening, or whether it’s a physical attack,” NYPD Deputy Commissioner John Miller said. “That’s why we’re continuing to evaluate the language, but also the source.” Sony's files and personal emails were hacked by the group known as Guardians of Peace. "The Interview" stars Seth Rogen and James Franco and it’s scheduled to open on Christmas Day. Rogen and Franco have canceled their promotional tour in support of the movie. Is SONY acting like a bunch of chickensh!ts? Or it may be a cheap publicity stunt? Could be, since this movie did not get such great reviews. 1 posted on 12/17/2014, 2:07:24 PM by Impala64ssa To: Impala64ssa Gutless Hollywood narcissists. 2 posted on 12/17/2014, 2:11:28 PM by stinkerpot65 4 posted on 12/17/2014, 2:19:35 PM by WakeUpAndVote [ Post Reply \| Private Reply \| To 1 \| View Replies \| Report Abuse] To: Impala64ssa In this case, my sympathies are with the NK.

It was clearly Korenglish - Korean English. I used to work with South Koreans and know it well. 8 posted on 12/17/2014, 2:22:58 PM by Minsc [ Post Reply \| Private Reply \| To 1 \| View Replies \| Report Abuse] To: olepap I’m sorry but I don’t understand how Sony attacked Kim? 9 posted on 12/17/2014, 2:27:46 PM by momtothree [ Post Reply \| Private Reply \| To 5 \| View Replies \| Report Abuse] To: olepap "In this case, my sympathies are with the NK.

It's a sad day when conservatives need to look to NK for an example of having the balls to fight back. 10 posted on 12/17/2014, 2:27:46 PM by CatOwner [ Post Reply \| Private Reply \| To 5 \| View Replies \| Report Abuse] To: Impala64ssa All this nonsense aside, am I the only person who saw the commercials for this film and thought “I’ll pass - doesn’t seem remotely humorous.”? 11 posted on 12/17/2014, 2:31:10 PM by day10 (You'll get nothing and like it!)
