Sony needs to grow some balls, this is growing into a complete and utter joke. This is the entire problem with the world right now complete and utter risk aversion, red tape and politics.
If i was the CEO of sony, I would not dumb down the death scene, I would make it more extreme, I would edit the film and add recent events into it along with some dialogue that says "Screw North Korea, screw The guardians of peace", as the credits roll up there would be a scene with some computer geeks, a "guardians of peace banner" and something amusingly horrible happening to them all, like being annally rapped to death by a pack of gorillas while trying to hack into the sony website from there underground hacking bunker.
After the credits, maybe a crying Seth Rogen after he discovers the true damage that the guardians of peace have done... they have deleted is midget porn collection!!!
I would do my upmost to get it in every theatre in the world that could and any chain that refused to show it, I would withdraw rights for them to show future big Sony releases, because basically screw them. If they're not willing to have the balls to be awesome, then they aren't important enough to have anything else.
This is a joke, oh no... someone read some emails and leaked them on the internet... on no there is a movie script or two and some unrealised movies. Oh noes they hacked our network, BIG ing deal.. nobody cares, it makes no difference to anyone. Sony just got frapped and went crying to mommy. Sony come out of this looking pathetic, I will avoid this brand in the future unless they do something more awesome soon.
Sony is not a political entity, they're a global multimedia conglomerate. It's not their job to make "awesome" statements defending free speech, or to turn against their distributors, or to rage against the machine. Their job is to make money selling, in this case, a comedy which has turned out to be more trouble for them than it's worth (which given the unlikely franchise potential of comedies, probably isn't much.)
