North Korea declares war on the US

[Darth Biscuit]

I'm not kidding...  

 

 

Over a movie...

 

 

 

It turns out that North Korea doesn’t find much humor in a big-screen comedy about the assassination of its leader. The movie The Interviewis set to hit theaters in October and stars James Franco and Seth Rogen as a talk-show host and his producer who, after landing an interview with Kim Jong Un, are drafted by the CIA to kill him. Today, North Koreareleased a strongly worded statement through its state-run news agency, saying, “If the United States administration tacitly approves or supports the release of this film, we will take a decisive and merciless countermeasure.” The statement also described the movie as “an act of war that we will never tolerate.

Why do they care?  It's not like anyone in N. Korea is going to be able to see it anyways.

Yeah I get it's satire, but since I first saw this trailer it seemed needlessly provocative. Even the great Charlie Chaplin knew you didn't parody a despot by name, as in The Great Dictator. Of course a world leader isn't going to take it lightly when a movie centers around him or her being assassinated. Just as I imagine Americans wouldn't take it lightly if a movie from Iran was a comedy about assassinating Obama, of even Bush during his presidency.

 

It just seems needlessly inflammatory to make a movie about killing not just a Kim-Jong-Un-like character, but Kim Jong Un himself.

This is a documentary based on Dennis Rodman.

A war against North Korea is obviously nothing to laugh about, especially as we would take major casualties if we ever invaded them with ground forces. 

 

Howeva, lol at them being upset at a movie. And them in general.

They didn't seem to mind when his dad killed Hans Blix in Team America.

Yeah, that wasn't a sensitive issue, because it wasn't about to happen in real life.

 

[Mr. Scot]

If he's easily pissed, he might wanna refrain from doing an internet image search of his name.

 

There's a load of stuff out there :lol:
