If this isn’t just a publicity stunt…
Do these theater chains think there is a huge North Korean network of sleeper agents, just waiting, perhaps for decades, to unleash hell in the even someone in the US makes some sort of derogatory remark about the Dear Leader? Do they think NK is going to launch ICBMs targeted at theaters? How is “violence reminiscent of the terrorist attacks of September 11th” supposed to be achieved against theaters? Small planes flying to mutliplexes?
Seems like a lot of hooey. I’m still not going to see the movie anyway - the basic premise annoys me. If I were one of the characters, I’d fully expect that the CIA was just using me as a patsy anyway - sure, I’ll kill Jung, and …then what? The CIA saves me? Not likely. Easier to “disavow any knowledge of my actions”, I’d say. My only decision is which do I fear more - life in a NK prison, or summary execution? decisions, decisions.
