Looks like Anonymous is going to release the movie on Christmas Day.

North Korea's internet is down. What a coincidence.

It was also a completely different era without the benefit of internet and electronic sabotage.

So with the 'net out in N. Korea....they'll come lookin' for you since you said that.

From the Dallas Morning News

"Update at 10:48 a.m.: From Tim League, founder of the Alamo Drafthouse, tells The Dallas Morning News via email that “Sony has authorized shows for Christmas Day. Will have Dallas shows on sale within the hour.”

Sources familiar with this morning’s conference call say Sony is also going to make the movie available to theaters at a reduced rental rate, as well as put it on a streaming service (not yet named) and video on demand by no later than Christmas. More to come."

This whole thing reeks of a marketing stunt.

That's what I would have thought if it wasn't for certain passports and salaries being released to the public, as well as a Bond script draft. Then again, I haven't looked at any of these things so I'm not certain of the authenticity of it.

One thing I know for sure is whatever is happening here, it's worked. I am eager to see this movie now, even though it looks terrible. Would not have been on my radar if not for all of this.

This could be the greatest viral marketing campaign ever... I had no desire to see this movie before but now I want to just to say "FU" to North Korea.
