I had no interest in the movie, but the cancellation is just ridiculous.

I can read a book quite well in movie theaters.

I am pissed that Sony caved to industrial espionage and terrorism.

Has there been a threat of violence (beyond the typical broad threats to destroy all of their foes that the DPRK seems to issue daily) or has this been restricted to leaking info?

... in order to build up more interest in the film? Being in the headlines could be awfully good publicity for the film's eventual release at some later date.
