Hi there

I just can't understand the mindset of Sony -- it releases the Interview (finally) but ONLY in the USA --- what did they expect -- it's all over the usual Torrent sites now so anybody in Europe / outside the USA can download it in full 1080p quality FOR FREE. What did SONY expect .

So they've also LOST a HUGE worldiwide market (excluding the USA) of course.

UK users on Virgin, BT, Sky and Talktalk can bypass the blocks in about two milliseconds flat.

BTW the film isn't much good but interesting to see what all the fuss was about !!!.

I can't though understand the Sony mindset again. Surely a 5 year old would predict what would happen by releasing the movie on the Internet just in ONE area !!!!!!!


Happy Xmas.

Cheers
jimbo

not seen it yet but judging on the trailers and imdb, it seems to be a comedy about the assassination of Kim Jong Un.
