The last 48 hours have been rough for comedic co-stats James Franco, Seth Rogen, Sony and their up-coming Christmas day release, The Interview, at least what was planned as a Christmas release. The comical title, starred the two actors being sent to North Korea in an attempt to assassinate their current leader and while being met with some early on controversy, everything came to a head this week when the group of hackers who leaked the Sony e-mails, amongst other things, issued a threat if the movie was released comparable to the attacks on 9/11. After just a few meres hours, major theaters chains like Cinemark, Regal, and AMC announced that they would not be showing the film shortly before Sony confirmed that they have "no further release plans for the film." The decision drew a mixed reaction, especially amongst some of Hollywoods biggest stars. Surprisingly, this isn't the only film that's going to suffer due to this decision as an upcoming film starring Steve Carell, titled Pyongyang based on the graphic novel by Guy Delisle, that was slated to being production in March has been scrapped due to its plot centered around the main character being working in North Korea for a year. Public safety comes first but did we validate an anonymous threat that's taking anything related to North Korea off the table or have we made the right decision to protect our movie goers?
