I’m sure you’ve heard the latest on Sony Pictures pulling the release of their movie, 'The Interview', due to supposed threats issued directly from North Korea.

This seems very silly to most of us, but you have to ask yourself, what would make a major production company throw away 200 million dollars?

The question remains, does this have anything to do with the recent hacking of Sony? The White House now has publicly acknowledged that the crime links back to North Korea.

Paramount Pictures has also pulled any re-showing of the 2004 movie 'Team America: World Police'. The movie features a puppet of Kim Jong Ill, former leader of North Korean, who is now dead.

Many people are asking for answers as to why we’re allowing North Korea to bully and threaten us. We can only speculate at this time, but is North Korea that dangerous that we would act in such a submissive manner? Is this some kind of a promotional gimmick, or do the parties involved feel this is too offensive to the Kim Jong Un?

I hope more details are revealed in the upcoming days, but at the time of this blog that’s all I have for you. Anybody call Dennis Rodman yet?

Check out the video of Matt Stone and Trey Parker’s, 'Team America: World Police' as they spoof King Jong Ill (Warning: contains profanity).
