Who knows why?
Well, actually everyone, since the new film is about journalists trying to assassinate Kim Jong Un.

Franco and Rogen play a talkshow host and his producer who are invited to interview Kim Jong-un, and are subsequently recruited by the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to assassinate the leader.
The film's teaser trailer, posted on Youtube, shows a lookalike actor playing Kim Jong-un, as well as fight scenes involving what appear to be North Korean tanks and helicopters, and a nuclear missile launch.
The North Korea spokesman was quoted by the state KCNA news agency as saying: "Making and releasing a movie on a plot to hurt our top-level leadership is the most blatant act of terrorism and war and will absolutely not be tolerated."
He added that the "reckless US provocative insanity" of mobilising a "gangster filmmaker" to challenge the North's leadership was triggering "a gust of hatred and rage" among North Korean people and soldiers.
"If the US administration allows and defends the showing of the film, a merciless counter-measure will be taken," the spokesman was quoted as saying. |

kim Jong Il would've hit back by releasing a film of his own but I guess jong-eun is not really a movie buff. |

Nah, they'd just kidnap someone.
That's what Kim Jong-Il did.

Its a James Franco and Seth Rogan comedy.
I stand with North Korea against this film. |
