Unless they have a ton of stamps to send us a nuke through the postage, then I see no reason to be worried.

Go pout in the corner, NK.

Oh man... when they made Homefront, they had it all wrong... This is the thing that gives North Korea the drive to annex South Korea, take over the main leadership of China, create a Satellite with EMP capabilities and then take over North America.

you know I usually avoid Seth Rogan movies but ill have to see this one if only to support people pissing off NK cause lets face it if they went to war with the US it wouldn't be a war it would be pest control. Also to all those thinking china will back NK think again they have too much money in the US to risk the whole "were at war now so we owe you nothing" decision that would come from the US the second they came in.

It's really fucking sad to see so many people condemning North Korean propaganda while spouting US propaganda. Invincible US military huh? Liberating the people of North Korea huh? Do I even need to mention that Iraq is about to be taken over by an al-Qaeda splinter group?

I should also add that the title is incorrect. There is no mention of war in the article quoted, it merely promises a "retaliation".
Yeah guess what? that wasn't the militaries decision it was a politician who cant do simple math by the name of Obama and unlike Iraq, North Korea would just be folded back in with South Korea making the transition much easier.

Also just a little tid-bit the US military is actually larger then pretty much any one else's save china and are navy is larger then the rest of the worlds combined navies. so yeah we may be cocky but there's a good reason for it.

C'mon North Korea please nuke California, I want to see modern full HD images of what happens at a nuke blast zone and it's not like anyone will care if California is turned into a crater.
As long as it is Northern California of course, preferably by Sacramento, then maybe then that wasteful train project will be stopped for good. :p

OT: It is pretty funny to see a movie being made about people killing a real living world leader, of course this would not fly with anyone else but that creep.

It seems they made a controversial film and succeeded.
And now the controversy is giving the film attention. I hadn't known of this film before this story.

But it does fill me with concern politically...

And the film comes across as being annoying.

Us building trans-continental missiles = brave and patriotic defense of homeland

You making comedy movie about an attempt to assassinate our leader = intolerable act of provocation.

...For #$%@'s sake, North Korea. How can we not turn you into a farce; you're practically writing the script.

Normally of any other country I'd think that they're right to be offended, but north Korea isn't a country its a gang with hostages so I really don't care about their feelings or how they say their "citizens" feel.

Sure thing. Cool story guys.

I'm sure you could do anything to begin to dent the US military.
To quote Red vs. Blue: "Sir, I think we're under attack... a very sloppy, poorly coordinated attack..."

OT: So, NK's threatening us. Must be Wednesday.

Hahahaha, oh my god this film.

I wonder what will happen when it gets smuggled into North Korea by means of illegal USB stick (which apparently is an increasing hole in their isolation).

I'm having a hard time imagining something more tasteless than making a movie about assassinating a current world leader.
Thank you Jupiter065, I'm surprised by how many people on this thread don't have a problem with this. I saw the trailer for this a few days ago and thought it was in very poor taste. Making a comedy about the government-sponsored killing of a real named world leader (albeit a not very nice one) seems completely off.

Also it looked deeply unfunny.
This... If Iraq, Iran, or heck better yet... Putin were making a worldwide released movie about assassinate Obama (Or Bush for you Republicans) the US would lose their mind about it, and try to enforce an embargo with all of their allies.

Umm... China has money in the US sure, but it has money in every nation. It wouldn't be a risk to China to go to war with the US. On the other hand probably a good 50-60% (I'm low balling) of the US consumer goods would dry up in a week because almost everything now days is made in China.

So it would be more like "we at war now... shit who's going to make all our stuff"

The things to worry about aren't large scale attacks from them aside from cyber attacks. The thing to worry about is specific attacks that can be carried out by one or two people already on our soil. For example, assassination. Not necessarily of our leaders buy maybe these actors? That is something to be concerned about.
I'm not.

North Korea knows as much as we do that killing James Franco and Seth Rogen would make about 2/3 of America support a war, counteracting the remaining third that would mail Kim Jong-Un gifts. :p

Get out of here with your level headed commentary. This is a thread for 'Merica, not a reasonable examination of the consequences of starting a war. Honestly though, everyone's just joking. Considering how many posts are about nuking California, which I'm sure no one actually wants to happen, I think we're all here to just spout a little nonsense and move on. Don't take Ecoho's bait and try to have a serious conversation under a thread about a Seth Rogen movie.

As far as the movie goes, it probably wont be as funny as pineapple express, but if it's funnier than Observe and Report then I'll be happy seeing it once.

And yet surprisingly they haven't threatened to annihilate us for the most recent Adam Sandler movie... funny that.
