The Interview - Threats or Hoax?

[gleee58]

Does anyone seriously believe that the North Koreans are threatening war over a stupid movie or could this be a publicity prank that got out of control?

Not too sure about threatening war but hacking, yes, more than capable.

They sink boats and shell civilians over less.

North Koreans give me the impression they don't play nice but i'm not concerned Tone will sort them out given the opportunity.

[aps1080]

Nk dont play nice.

They torpedoed a sk boat for no reason and bombed a village in sk, killing civilians.

Nk cant go too far or china pulls the leash tight.

It should never have been made in the first place. I heard it described as 'cultural arrogance'. I think I agree with that description. If NK had made a film about the assassination of the US president it would have rightly been badly received.

The hacking of Sony though is beyond the pale.
