AMC, Regal, and other chains are pulling The Interview
 

I'm pretty surprised at how gutless everyone is. I have no idea how funny the movie will be, but I liked the trailer and I was hoping to see it. I wonder how much they could make if it goes straight to on demand.

Why? Do we not want to hurt Nkoreas feelings?

Stupid, gutless decision.

The whole thing is weird. Do they know about Team America?

Something for whatever reason left out of that article is that Sony basically asked them to.

Actually I guess it was in there, I just missed it on my scan read.

Although they interpreted sony telling them the chains they didn't care if they pulled the movie as sony holding their ground.

A good friend of mine created the trailer for this film, which involves watching the entire movie and editing it for TV and Theatrical release.

Anyway, he said the movie was pretty damn funny. He said there area few bits that don't work but overall, it's enjoyable.

Sony pulled it altogether:

IMO, they should make it available PPV on Christmas Day. It's not like it's an "Awards" type of film that needs to be released in theaters.

That's a shame. What would they charge for ppv initially? I think usually new movies that go vod are around $11-$12, but seems like they could go higher with this one.

Shouldn't surprise anyone. Its knee-jerk reaction bullshit. Meanwhile, people can sit around and watch Saw 14 where people get there heads cut off and glued back together no problem.

Movie Industry is pretty sensitive to threats after the Aurora disaster. Obviously.

I thought it looked stupid but I want to see it now. Good job hackers.

So why was the trailer so bad? There is nothing in that trailer to indicate it is a good movie.

I mean, I've seen some other clips and it might just be good. But the trailer...
