From what I read of the plot, it is a ridiculous movie.

Not Ha HA ridiculous but why did they bother - ridiculous.

So it will go right to DVD and Blu-ray. That is how Sony will get their money.

Sony will push some teenaged kid around for bootlegging a DVD but they caved like sand over some alleged terrorism.

The teen-aged kid isn't likely to blow up a movie theater or three.

It's caving, but to a possibly real threat.

I wanted to point out the relative bravery on Sony's part.
I'm sure their legal department and their insurance carriers had some long conversations with them.

Your pal,
Fred

No real threat -- just some Chinese or Korean hackers blowing smoke. The N.Koreans have no terror network in the US.

I guess if they can steal a terabyte of data you might fear they have friends with dynamite.

To hack they don't need to be in this country; to blow up a theater, they do.

Nah, having friends with dynamite means having friends actually having to do stuff away from their computers. :-)

True, but how sure are you that N Korea doesn't have anyone in the US. Maybe a S Korean who has threatened family in the north.

How are we sure about anything? After 9/11, there were dozens of "threats." Not one came to fruition, except for the occasional lone wolf.

Friends with dynamite could mean a fishing trip in Tennessee! :)

Exactly. One response is to go about your business as usual. Another response is to go into full panic mode. The latter isn't entirely irrational though, just sad.

America's fault for taking Japan's colony off them in 1945...
