Yes, but consider a couple of factors:
1) Movie theaters and Sony would be liable if any violence occurs at any theater showing the film
2) Any theater or chain showing the movie may keep movie-goers away who would be there to see other films. Major factor during the second busiest movie season of the year. I'm sure there was pressure on Sony from other studios and from movie theater groups.
I don't see where they had any other choice when you look at it from a business and not political stance perspective.

Hackers usually use their method because they're not the type to confront anyone physically
What threat of violence would there be?
There's no controversy within the United States

Our leader has been bombing the frick out of the ME w/drones and is getting compared to a fascist bully dictator by the red team media on the reg and now it's his fault that some movie chains are spineless? Congrats on being a lemming brah.

It's not like North Korea is going to send soldiers over to the US to shoot up movie theaters. The theaters are probably just scared of getting hacked themselves (which is probably a possibility).

No, I'm just not an easily led fool who thinks the dude is a puss b/c Fox and friends say so. (while they simultaneously cry that he bulldozes over them like a big bad mean man on every issue)
and with that, I'm done with politics in this thread and on this board b/c they have no place here.

It's not politics. They're just scared so they did something the terrorists wanted
That's how terrorism works

It could be any violence, not necessarily from the hackers but from sympathizers and/or wackos! Just the possibility, no matter how remote, is problem for Sony/theaters.
Movie co. that owns theater in Colorado where the shooting spree occurred is embroiled in litigation for years to come.
Blame the hackers, but also blame the lawyers

It's official, we are a nation of pussies.

I wish hackers would make threats against all the prequels/sequels/reboots and comic book movies.
Posted on 12/17/14 at 2:41 pm to classictiger
It's time that Trey and Matt do a Team America sequel. Am I right, right, right?
Posted on 12/17/14 at 2:41 pm to classictiger
Oh whackos, they'll shoot up any crowded theater, they're not so much interested in the politics
Plus, only now are they making the actual release of the movie controversial
It's so fricking stupid.
