    Last night, I watched The Interview after drinking ale, White Russians, egg nog, and enjoying some Halflings' Leaf ....

    Now here is the strange thing ... Beyond the opening credits, I don't remember a goddamn thing.

    Perhaps the Noth Koreans spiked my egg nog?

    :-?

    well, no....but with the limited number of theaters and the video on demand stuff all over the internet, i think it's not bad. i heard close to 3 million for the weekend.

    Not really sure why people are paying to see this movie.

    If you want to see funny movie, try the Grand Budapest Hotel. I can guarantee you will laugh more at this than at The Interview.

    And if you want to feel like you're striking a blow for freedom? You might need to put a bit more effort in than watching a screen for 2 hours.

    Make enough noise and and the money will come in. I'm saving my dollars and my time with this one.

    A well made documentary about Kim Jong-un might be more (unintentionally even) funny, quirky for sure and very interesting and educational. That I might go see.

    So do we have any proof yet that North Korea did it?

    Because of your recommendation, I'm gonna watch Grand Budapest Hotel, Thanks.

    It seems that (too) many people think that by paying to see 'The Interview', it's supporting freedom somehow and at the same time a big in your face devastating blow to North Korea, and the fantastic part, they (North Korea) probably did not even do it.

    and if someone posts a link to the FBI or Obama just saying so..Sorry, I want 'source code'.
    I don't trust the FBI's word, if they have proof, provide the evidence, and Obama? I don't expect anything from that hypocrite other than more hypocrisy.

    His two terms almost up and what? More people dead in drone strikes, more money to Israel, where are these headlines? Where are these stories?

    NSA spying, Patriot Act, nothing, we go about our lives, but when we are unable to waste money on some trash movie, omg! Our Freedoms!

    ya alright,
