Can someone explain the backstory here pls.

... over a comedy]

a mess

Sony's releasing a comedy about two journalists who are hired to kill the dictator of North Korea. North Korea is crazy and they do all kinds of weird wacky brainwashing etc (in real life) and Kim has been trying to stop the movie being produced by saying it's an "act of war" and is basically doing the most to stop it. So that's what the hacking was.

It's kind of sad that all he can do is expose some old lady shading Angelina Jolie. It's like; was that your best shot lmao?

There was an interesting documentary a while ago where journalists posed as students, got into North Korea with secret cameras and exposed the mess. It makes Russia look like Honolulu.

Sony made this film (starring James Franco) about him and this other dude who have to kill the leader of North Korea.

watch the US do nothing even tho NK threaten us with 9/11 tactics and harm Sony employees

At least they've got their priorities straight. It's not like the majority of the country is starving to death or anything.

Can't say I'm surprised. They just announced they're scrapping the release of the movie too.

not surprising after making threats of producing something similar to 9/11 on theaters that choose to show the movie

It's because they hardly have any influence outside their country. I mean do they even let people out of their country at all

Yas let's nuke them.

NK stay in their feelings huh.

That doesn't matter, they attacked a US company and won. A precedent has been set and now its upto the US to see if they let it stand

Told u so

How is NK educating these hackers when they don't really educate the citizens of their country? How do they have the resources to be able to commit such an act and bypass the complex protections set up by highly trained?? Did they hire independent parties?

Yes lets start another war

Am shocked

And now Sony has totally pulled the plug on the movie Letting the terrorists win, I see. I was planning to go to the movies to see it, but I guess my Christmas coins will be spent elsewhere...

We'll know something tomorrow.

Did I say we should?
