    i just downloaded it about half an hour after it was 'streamed'

    it's an okay movie, but not a good movie. it's the usual
    immature fart joke/homo joke shit from those guys.

    If you got the jokes, they were way funny. Kim Jun Ill actually said he didn't poo or pee. So the sharting was actually a more in-depth joke than just a shart. (He really did have no butthole)

    Even now that The Interview has been released, I'm still not sure if it's a movie I'm interested in seeing.

    It was a bust to begin with. It may have been remotely funny to some.. but it was a bust in general. I think all this gov't crap involved is just a ploy to make sure it makes the money it took to create it. Which is stupid.

    I'd think that would be a lot of work and expense just for some publicity. I'm not sure why the government would be so interested in helping promote a movie anyway.

    It does certainly elevate what would have been a lukewarm opening weekend and 6 weeks to on-demand movie somewhat.

    I doubt it has anything to do with promoting the movie. The gov't (specifically, Obama) got involved by telling the American people that we should not bow to any other country and do what they say just because they threaten us.

    And when our gov't is 222+ trillion dollars in debt partly (or more) due to stupid spending, who knows what the hell they'd do when it comes to expense for
    publicity. :)

    But you said you thought the gov't became involved to make sure it makes the money it took to create the movie? That would involve promoting the movie, would it not?

    (specifically, Obama) got involved by telling the American people that we should not bow to any other country and do what they say just because they threaten us.

    Whether you like Obama or not, I think that sentiment makes some sense. Do you disagree with that? Do you think Sony should not have released the movie due to North Korea's threats?

    And when our gov't is 222+ trillion dollars in debt partly (or more) due to stupid spending, who knows what the hell they'd do when it comes to expense for publicity. :)

    Sony is a private company. I don't think the government is making any significant money from the sale of a movie - Unless perhaps you count taxes from movie tickets, but I don't think that's much compared to what the movie studios bring in from movie sales.

    Figure of speech I guess. But no, it shouldn't *need* to involve promoting in any way, shape, or form.

    that we should not bow to any other country and do what they say

    I don't disagree with it. I only think it should NOT have been who said it. Check the recent CNN post on Dovenet in regards to the North Koreans calling Obama the ringleader behind Sony's releasing of the movie.

    Can you imagine going to war over a movie and something our president said in regards to it? :(

    And when our gov't is 222+ trillion dollars in debt partly (or
    more) due to stupid spending, who knows what the hell they'd do
    when it comes to expense for publicity. :)

    Who said anything about the government making money on this movie? I sure didn't. All I mentioned was stupid spending and our national debt in the above paragraph.

    I figured it to be all media hype. It's not my kinda movie. I just wanted to see what others thought of it. I sat though "Gone Girl" the other day and thought it was a waste of time. What a stupid ending. I still don't "get it". Anyway seems like a lot of this years flicks are bombs. Can anyone recommend somthing worth watching?

    Well, I know this was aimed at a younger demographic, but Big Hero Five was actually quite entertaining.

    I lived in San Francisco for 10 years and watched it just for the SF references in San Francisokyo.
