1. North Korea found out about this movie and said it should not be made.
2. Sony ignored them and produced the movie.
3. North Korea threatened to respond if Sony didn't pull it from the schedule.
4. Sony ignored them and planned the release, anyway.
5. North Korea hacked into Sony's network and threatened to release info.
6. Sony, again, ignored them.
7. North Korea began releasing embarrassing emails, obtained information about every Sony employees, threatened to post five unreleased films, as well as the $300 million budgeted Bond 24 script.
8. Sony threatens a 9/11 type of response if the film was released theatrically.
9. Exhibitors decided against showing the film.
10. Sony pulled it altogether.
North Korea has followed through with every threat. Do you really believe that Sony should have ignored the threat of violence, with possible loss of life, over a dopey movie?
