It Looks Like The Interview May be Released After All

I would be a bit hesitant to see it in a theater, but wouldn't have a problem with On Demand or Netflix. I hope they have law enforcement doing searches of everyone buying tickets to see this.

---------------------------------------------------------

From CNN:

Sony is preparing to announce a release plan for "The Interview" that involves special screenings a...

Two theaters, in Atlanta and in Austin, Texas, said on Twitter that they had agreed to show the film, which is a comedy about an assassination plot against the North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. It's widely believed that a cyberattack against Sony Pictures last month was partly due to North Korea's fury over the movie.

Sony may also release the controversial Seth Rogen comedy through a video-on-demand service.

Wish it was more up my alley then I might use my allowance to go to a theater to see it. I realized ages ago I ain't gonna live forever. Never know when or where my journey here will be over or in what method it will end. I do know it won't end with me concerned about some vague threat by who knows whom!

The subject matter doesn't appeal to me in the least.

I had no intention of seeing it before, and I don't plan on seeing it

It really doesn't appeal to me either, but I feel like standing in solidarity with those who object to another country dictating our entertainment content.

If they really wanted to make a statement on the matter, they should show it for free.

That's not happening though, lol

I wonder if people will go to see it. I don't like going to the movies anymore. Sitting in the dark with strangers makes me nervous.

If it was playing near me, I would go see it (just because!).

Right now, it's only playing in a very few theaters. It may not make very much. If it does well in the limited release, however, it certainly will expand I would imagine.

Of course it will be released now. It will make ten times the money it would have made before it was hacked. There's no way they would not take advantage of that.
