Sony Pictures has made official what has been painfully obvious to everybody since yesterday morning, when hackers threatened to blow up movie theaters if The Interview was released next week. The studio has officially scrapped its release plans. Sony had little choice here, after the major theater chains announced earlier today they would not display the film given the threatening circumstances.
If attacks did happen at the release, people would be up in arms against them for releasing it. I don't blame their decision to scrap it.
What's next, The Amazing Spider-man 3 will be canceled because some kid in his basement doesn't want to see Spider-man win? Way to sour your already tainted reputation Sony.

Maybe this is just a brilliant marketing ploy to spread the word a bit more.
Chalk another one up for the terrorists. gg Kim. Wonder what they'll do next time they see another piece of media they don't like.
