Crowds (and Pirates) Flock To 'The Interview'
Rambo Tribble writes: Many of the 300+ theaters showing The Interview on Christmas were rewarded with sell-out crowds. While reviews of the comedy have been mixed, many movie-goers expressed solidarity with the sentiment of professor Carlos Royal: "I wanted to support the U.S."
Despite sellout crowds, the movie's limited release meant it only brought in about $1 million on opening day (compared to $10M+ for the highest-grossing films). Curiosity about the film seems high, since hundreds of thousands rushed to torrent the film, and others figured out an extremely easy way to bypass Sony's DRM.
Why do you hate America?
Everyone should watch this movie just as an act of patriotism.
I live in North Korea you insensitive clod!
Thank you, Brave Warrior for The People's Democracy! Your commemorative Kim Jong Un medallion will be delivered to you. In person. You may wear it your choice of northern work camps, where you may be able to trade it for a piece of moldy cabbage before you die.
Don't disappoint your bird dog. Go to the range.
It's hard to believe in a conspiracy where Sony is really clever. The only thing crazier would be a conspiracy theory that the people in the Bush administration pulled off an intricate ruse to fool the whole world.
"The movie was hands down the best cinematic experience I have ever had. It was a sophisticated roller coaster of emotion that flung and looped the the center of my being to places I have never been. It has romance,it has action, and such a splendor of visual effects that that I literally wept. To put it in perspective I love this movie like I love my wife, except I'd save this movie from a fire. Before I saw this movie I had cancer, saw the movie, no cancer. The movie was so fantastic that time actually stopped. It has a run time of zero minutes because the creative genius behind it was so great that the the fabric of time was effectively torn. This rivals the birth of Christ and I highly recommend this film."
I fail to see the difference....?
Oh wait, I get it now!
The Nerfs don't have an over blown sense of entitlement and superiority. Also if you hitch them to a wagon they will be able to pull it without all the whining, heart attacks and need for a candy bar and coke every few metres...
NB: Nothing against Americans per se - I have several friends that are American (pun intended). Just sheeple in the US propping up their evil government in ignorance despite its "transparency" (and not the kind obama promised and failed to deliver).
