The Marketing Campaign Is Now Complete: Sony To Release The Interview On December 25 After All

Update: SONY TO RELEASE ’THE INTERVIEW’ IN THEATERS ON CHRISTMAS DAY

From the WSJ:

Sony Pictures Entertainment will release “The Interview” on a limited number of screens Dec. 25, the studio said, six days after a hacking attack and terrorist threats led the studio to cancel the slapstick comedy about an assassination plot against North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

 

The studio called the limited theatrical opening “only the first step” in the movie’s release plans. 

 

The Sony Corp. unit has told theaters that it will release the film via video-on-demand, a person familiar with the matter said.

 

The nation’s biggest theater chains are unlikely to play the film, this person said. It is expected to open on just a fraction of the thousands of screens it was supposed to play on. Sony last week gave theaters the option of not playing the film. The largest chains responded by saying they wouldn’t play it and asking the studio to postpone or cancel the film altogether. Sony said last Wednesday that it wouldn't open the film as planned.

Take that evil North Korean Hackers

* * *

And so, what is perhaps the greatest marketing campaign in movie history, comes to a close with the following update from Bloomberg:

  • SONY MAY LET THEATERS SHOW INTERVIEW ON DEC. 25: DALLAS NEWS
  • Sony executives talking about possibility of releasing “The Interview” on Dec. 25 during a conference call scheduled for 10am in Dallas, Dallas News reports, citing people familiar.

The terrorists un-win!

To everyone who thought North Korea really had nothing better to do with its single 16 Mhz, 80286 "hacking mainframe" than unleash a cyber war against the US, you were punk'd. Now please line up to get your tickets for The Interview - it will sell out in minutes.

SONY may "let" theaters show it?  Theater chains pulled the movie, not SONY (according to SONY).

I think it is actually a pagan holiday, not? Many scholars put the birth of Jesus sometime closer to late spring I thought.

I don't think the weather is that condusive to shepards watching thier flocks at night during Dec, unless they were all wearing Columbia brand warm weather jackets. 

Now, if your reference was to the pagan holiday, then yes.....perfect timing.

I always took it as our good friend constantine melded the old pagan traditions and biblical christianity to give birth to the church of rome. Whether it was to get pagans on board or something else who can say.

 

Either way - to this point the issue as I understand it is that this movie was set to tank overseas and this mongoloid false flag and free advertising won't do anything overseas to generate a buzz. Sure it will cause the average overweight redneck to put on his best cowboy boots and nascar leather jacket to go see the movie so the terrorists don't win but the fundamental problem with this movie still exists.

Actually, the "Son" (Jesus) rising again on the 3rd day, coincides with the Winter Solstice on December 21'st and the sun visually beginning to rise again on the horizon on the 25th. Was never really a birthday thing.

except the whole son / sun thing falls apart when one realizes the english language wasn't around when this started. Zeitgeist, Jordan Maxwell and their ilk are charlatans ignoring the veracity of any religion.

Perhaps, but it does lend credence to the reasoning for choosing of the date, December 25. Of course, there is that whole Pope Gregory thing with the 11 days, to consider. But for the most part, it viewed correctly.

I remember the lesson well.  The Economics teacher had a map of Korea, as seen from space at night time.  "See that?", he said.  "All them lights in South Korea are due to capitalism and industrialization."

"And see how North Korea is dark?  That's because they have all put up the blackest curtains and duct taped them to the windows so you can't see the glow of the computer monitors.  That's because they're all training up to be the deadliest computer hackers in the world ... using, ummm, the computers that they invented and built themselves, no ... ummmm, they reverse engineered them and worked out how to program them themselves becoz they're so clever and now they're gonna hack the world, especially the movie business ... they hate us for our freedoms ... its either hack computers or work in the paddy fields, what do you think they're gonna do? ..."

Ummm, and then my memory gets a bit foggy ...

Aside from expatriate North Koreans and the two James Franco fans out there, who will watch this movie after the first weekend of its release? Maybe Sony should ask the MPAA to send some of its crack investigators to Korea to investigate this hack.  MPAA beloved leader Chris Dodd has not said a word about the alleged North Korean theft of intellectual property.  What is he waiting for?  The Hollywood studios pay him $3 million a year to try to get internet censorship for Americans, so we can have the same Net freedom as North Koreans.  The MPAA should fire Dodd for being missing in action

"...one would 'borrow' a copy off piratebay?"

That wouldn't be possible. Swedish national IP Police (yes, there is such a thing) raided The Pirate Bay, confiscated their servers and shut down the site on Dec. 9th. - thepiratebay.se is gone. 

The Digital Mafia (MPIA/RIAA) has also had legal successes in getting ISPs to ban access to The Pirate Bay and other file-sharing sites - France is the most recent example. They're working on banning access to filesharing in the USA - it's only a matter of paying off the right congressmen and sneaking it into some bill they won't read.

Well, there's your problem right there.  No-one cares if a PIRATE Bay gets shut down.  They shoulda taken a leaf out of the US govt's book and called it FREEDOM Bay, or PATRIOT FREEDOM Bay.  LAST BASTION OF THE FREE WORLD Bay!  Then watch the govt try and shut it down.

I'm glad there's someone besides me who recognizes this marketing as a joke.  We get back to "The Grays" again and what's scary is that with watching all of this we are now truly seeing how many folks can't tell the difference between a virtual world value and the real world.  It is news about the Sony hack but look what the press did with that burning need for "click bait" if you will.  They really need the money from the ad revenue.  In a way it's hard to fault a business looking for money to stay alive but when you go full circle with all of this, it's all sick.  Like I said months ago, we have a real problem when people confuse virtual world values with the real world.  Banks, companies, though like this to keep consumers off balance as that means profits for them.

Seriously think about this, who's going to die if they don't get to see this movie for a few months or so, again the real story is with Sony is getting their security and systems back online right now and I'm sure they too are pondering, well if we do release it, will it make money, so there's that side too.

http://ducknetweb.blogspot.fr/2014/03/virtual-worlds-real-world-we-have....

Even Obama should have been quiet on this, but not and the White House is not beyond the confusion of their own too, as I caught this a while back with their email bot using junk science numbers that nobody can predict with purshing for Climate Control.  I don't have a problem with climate control, but for God's sakes don't shoot yourself in the foot making a case for it as they you look as bad as the other side.

http://ducknetweb.blogspot.ca/2014/06/junk-science-appearing-everywhere-...

Now back to the real world, pay attention to Oracle buying Datalogix, that impacts you as more of your personal data gets sold for corporate profits and you get denied access to something based on flawed data they sell about us.  They don't give a crap as flawed data gets the same price as good data and when it shakes down to the end with "denied" stamped on you, the consumer, I guess that's when the big shake out might occur.

Anyway, that's a real world situation to where virtual values come out and crush us humans...the movie, again thanks for being one of the few to see what this is all about...so sad that's what the world is coming too with a huge marketing campaign to keep consumers distracted from the real world issues that are eating our lunch and money.

First you have to peel the spinach leafs from the stems and give them a good wash. Heat a little olive oil and saute with first, the garlic, then the onions and green onions, then add the spinach, slowly, mixing with the garlic and onions, later add the parsley. Let cool. Then mix with Fetta cheese. Lay a philo dough out and layer with melted butter and panko. Do this 4 times. Then put a blob of the spinach mix and fold it how ever the fuck you want. Bake....YUMMY!!!

SONY is clever. SONY is also a very nasty bunch too! I view all my movies through a Cloud Service File Download and Storage Site. Wonderful amount of storage for only $7.00 a month, plus search function, download to cloud and free virus scan. Any video file on the internet can be downloaded safely to the cloud and watched on any device there is. I have noticed when I download a file to a SONY film, there are fewer files out there, most are corrupt or won't download, those that do download and can be viewed come with constant warnings they will arrest you! I watched a video file of FURY, which even had a background screen warning come on every few minutes with threats of arrest. SONY is a leader in attacking the internet file sharing world. They a serious about copy write.

Jack,

 

Would someone please give a list of the 10 best films published anywhere since 2000 that are worth watching.

I only find about 100 or so movies worthwhile watching like: 

Ben- Hur with Ramon Novarro + FX Bushman; The Third Man; M; Apocalypse Now;
Godfather I and II; Deer-hunter; Laura; All about Eve; On The Waterfront;
 N by NW; Dr. Strangelove, and many others, where actors and actresses could act and portray realism.

Russia and China are in the process of persuading NK to give up their nukes in exchange for protection and economic development. This would end US presence in East Asia since there would be no more reason for them to be there and SK and Japan would ask them to leave their countries. This is anathema to the US which is desperate for NK to remain the local bad guy, hence this movie, the pinning of the SONY hack on NK.

Makes me think Bill Cosby is being excoriated by the cabal for his positive influence on black American yutes. He really can't speak plainly for fear of getting OJ'd.
I know a lot of women but I don't know one that grew old keeping silent about accusations like this. The timing is suspect.
I wasn't going sit through the worst movie since Gung Ho anyway.

Agree totally on Bill . He has always consistently railed against 'thug culture', ebonics, race baiting, and black victimhood.  Not a peep on the fucked up black 'leaders' who keep chucking their own people under the bus for a profit. Not to mention how the "Great Society" scam has done more to hinder blacks via deception and destruction of their family units than whitey ever could have done by brute force alone.

I was really getting worried about the fact that I have not went to a movie since 1999.  If I really have a hankering to watch a movie I can always watch my wife's Twilight collection.  I had to show the wife this one froim Will Ferrell no less whom I do not always like.  Will nailed it here though.

I could not give a shit less about going to the movies.  Between AngusMcHugepenis, WB7, Knukles, myself and many others we could write a hell of lot better script then anything Whorelywood can ever come up with.  It could be a lot of fun to do.

This marketing theory is asinine. This whole hack thing was a mountain out of a molehill, and seems to be nothing but a false flag event generated by our esteemed leaders, and a comically shitty one at that

On top of the fact that it sounds like it sucks, most won't bother taking needless risk of seeing in public theater

This scared away more people than it will ever attract

Movie theaters already have become shunned. Didn't ZH just post the stats?

So what hoolywood garbage is worth needlessly exposing your safety and/or your life for?

Not that there aren't enough wanna be terrorists already in theaters

If the Khazars at SONY could do it over again I think they'd replace the storyline from North Korea to somewhere in Western Europe like this!

I agree with Jim.  It's why we're seeing such dramatic events taking place around the oil sector and it's because of that leader in the EU that's finally getting "cold feet" who wants out!

I'd say the likelihood of another 9/11 to pull the clan together is right around the corner!

This movie is obviously going to be a flop.  Lame actors and lame story line.  A comedy?  Okay.  Ha Ha.  I'm done.  The previews convinced me -- send it to cable already and I still won't watch it.

 

On the other hand, I could interrupt my Christmas day and go to a "select" theater to watch it.  That thought is a lot funnier than the movie itself could ever be.
