I wanted to see it before and I still want to see it.
I don't think I would have paid to see it in a theater, but I was looking forward to catching on BD.
They (Sony)were going to release it for free on Sony's streaming platform(called crackle) but they realized the number of people streaming it would crash the service.

David Boies, Sony's lawyer, says Sony will release the movie through its own website, Crackle.
CRACKLE?

Posted: 12/22/14 at 3:45pmReports are leaking out that Kim Jong Un is pissed. He was in the middle of an AbFab marathon on netflix.

It looks like it was probably Anonymous and not the US that did it.
And that it didn't affect that many computers in North Korea or the ones that actually hit Sony.
But someone's heart was in the right place ;-}

Wait. So Anonymous is against the NSA, North Korea AND Iggy Azalea?
Honestly, who has the time?

All those people who condemned Sony for caving into terrorists, I hope you’re planning to support this movie. (Me, I saw their last film, This Is the End – and that was enough for me. So many funny people in the cast, but where were the laughs?) Here’s a list of the theaters it will be playing at:

As of midday Tuesday, about 200 theaters around the country had booked the film.

Tower City Cinemas: The multiplex in downtown Cleveland, Ohio, will screen The Interview beginning on Christmas Day, and moviegoers wearing red, white and blue will receive a free 32 oz. popcorn.

Yes, and probably a mediocre buddy comedy will be a box office smash. Feeling we are being played Namo? Damn, the last time I felt I was being plyed with to this extent at least there was a happy ending.
ETA: Sony gets hacked...employees SS#s and vital information are leaked as well as rather embarressing e-mails... SUDDENLY a 9/11esque threat is made, drawing attention away from Sony's lack of internet security. How can North Korea hack into Sony using Comodore 64 style computers? Look at their propaganda pictures for Christ Sake! I am not buying a bit of this now.

"Bring it on, muthafukkas."
Thanks PJ for putting it in terms that I can understand. I'm stoked.

Posted: 12/23/14 at 9:55pmI was wrong about New England. Progressive Providence (or as I call it, "The Other P-Town") has a little theater showing it. For any New Englanders who want so show the mega-corporation SONY support during this difficult time.

Posted: 12/23/14 at 10:02pmReleasing it in a limited Christmas release? Well now I'm fascinated. I wasn't planning on seeing this (nor will I ever) but I support any movie theater that will show it anyway. INTO THE WOODS I go tomorrow.

Regretfully none in the city will be showing it.Try downtown Flushing for a bootleg of it.
Would see it even after sitting thru Rogen's turn as The Green Hornet.
