They have a lot of money but it's not unlimited. They only have what computers China has sold them. I imagine that their internet access comes from China too. It's not crazy to suggest that China was involved.
The left doesn't care. One of there favorite countries on the planet just threatened US movie theaters, which fearing that threat proceeded to cancel the move showing. What was sony supposed to do?
America is so much safer under Obama, that Supreme commander Kim, from north korea can now tell our movie theaters what films to show.
It's an unbelievably bad precedent. I don't entirely blame Sony, though. In this country if somebody does commit a murder at a showing--even just a yahoo with no affiliation to anything--Sony could be sued. People are already suing the theater with the batman killer, for example. Something needs to happen perhaps at the federal level with an edict or emergency passage of a law saying that anybody legally showing artwork or creating an intellectual product cannot be held responsible for what somebody else does who doesn't like it. Otherwise, somebody who doesn't want a movie to come out about Obama can do the same thing, or somebody who hates Taylor Swift can say they'll blow up any venue that is hosting one of her shows. It's terrible this happening.I started thinking more about this issue last night and the ramifications of Sony's decision for future media...and it pissed me off to no end. I hate that we are living in a country where veiled threats are defining how we live. It makes me angry and nauseous.
Rage on troll, and wipe the frothing spittle off your monitor while you're at it.
NK days the film is an act of war... What a bunch of little whiny bitches..
Haven't they starved to death yet?
It would be a shame if someone were to "hack" into Sony's servers and release, I mean "leak" The Interview as a torrent.
With a release note saying "Kim Jong Un, watch this!"
Keep staying ignorant.

Reportedly, the attack code wasn't very sophisticated.While the company had a heightened awareness of denial-of-service attacks and other threats at the edge of the network, its internal IT staff was stretched thin. Earlier this year, Sony Pictures experienced repeated trouble with e-mail service, as its Microsoft Exchange 2007 infrastructure strained under the companys e-mail load and its retention policy that forced users to keep e-mail in their inboxes forever, which had been in place for nearly seven years. A reduction in the amount of IT support from corporate parent Sony Corporation of America and poor support team training exacerbated the problems, according to e-mails leaked out of Sony Pictures.
The international aspect of Sony Pictures and the layoffs that the company had undertaken earlier this year overseas and in the US gave some credence to the claims by the Guardians of Peace that they were acting on behalf of former employees. The unprofessional nature of the code used in the Destover wiper malware adds to that illusion. It used commercial components and looks like something hobbled together from a well-worn malware kit bought off an underground web forum.
I have to wonder how Americans and our government would respond if a major movie was produced that had as it's premise killing Obama. Would we be offended or outraged? Dunno.
I do know that I WILL see this movie. All of the controversy has made this movie a must-see for me.

Geeze, even The West Wing had an episode where the President actually got shot.
Now, none of these are specifically Obama, but I think it's a safe bet that no one would care, especially if it were starring Seth Rogan.

Ok you guys saying "nobody would care" if they made a movie about assassinating a sitting president are idiots. I can guarantee to you at the very least the secret service would be breathing down your throats, and if it were another country it would be the CIA. There is no precedent for this movie, never has a movie company made a movie about assassinating a sitting world leader without at least changing the name.
