I read that North Korea will see its showing as a declaration of war - who said that Koreans have the emotional range of a 5 year old?

Wasnt me... Shocked

They better show it here, Kim really needs to pick his battles. It's a fictional comedy for crying out loud.

I'm struggling to think of a famous 'Seth' that isn't obnoxious. Rogen, Meyers, Green, MacFarlane... is the name cursed?

I hope so. North Korea can make all of the threats it wants, the West and South Korea will be like, "Yeah, whatever, dude." North Korea did fire three missiles recently but well, I hear its missile technology remains decades behind.

I think "Team America: World Police," which mocked Kim Jong-il, was released in South Korea without much fanfare.

Maybe no one feels like their worth giving a punch in the nose to, but a pie in the face can be just as good.

I want to see it as well. My guess is no, they won't show it here.

You might keep an eye on this page, though it's not always accurate:

And North Korea is saying the same thing right back to USA/S.Korea. North Korea be like "we gonna bomb your islands, bomb your boats, kill hundreds, and when you threaten us with sanctions, etc. we be like, whatever dude"

Looks like the North Korean leadership got some concessions from Columbia Pictures. Anyone know what they cut from the film?

Sorry but Seth Rogen and the American film industry is WRONG on this one.
As if things aren't already tense between the two countries, adding insult to the wound is just downright disrespectful and wrong and the US provoking North Korea is once again the main reason.

I'm not sure what the US is trying to do, but they definitely want to provoke NK to start a war. Probably so that the US arms manufacturers can make billions of more dollars in profit with production.

If the US condemns producing a film insulting Islam or the Prophet Muhammad, then they shouldn't insult NK and it's leader either.

This is just pure racist bigotry. Sorry folks, I'm with NK on this one. US and Rogen and whoever else are behind the film's production is just WAY WRONG on this.

A non-government company is not "the US provoking".

You need a healthy dose of reality. First off, "The US" isn't trying to do anything. Again, that's a private company, not the government. And your bit about the arms manufacturers is hogwash.

Yet again: The US didn't insult NK or its leader.

Racist? Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha! Racism hasn't a single thing to do with it.

You're either clueless or trolling.

I really wanted to see this movie.

Looks like the North Korean government has proven that blackmail works.
