Default N Korea threatens war over US movie

Quote:
North Korea has promised "merciless" retaliation if a forthcoming Hollywood movie about killing Kim Jong-un is released, say agencies.

A North Korean foreign ministry spokesman said in state media that the movie's release would be an "act of war".

Best laugh of the day so far

Yawn. The nation that puts out video clips of a glorious dream of New York getting nuked is threatening war over this?

They should just change their name to the Democratic People's Republic of North Hyperbole.

The mouse that roared?

Listen! Do you smell that?
Smells like Kimchi.

I would make it a point to send a copy of the movie to every theater in Pyongyang.
Rodman can be the delivery guy.

Watch them actually start a war over it and we're all standing here like bumbling idiots.

Ssshhh. They might hear you and use it as an excuse to bump up the TV license fees on our overburdened British brethren.

Just pump out some more episodes of Downton Abbey, BBC. From what I've seen, the Edwardian Era fanboys and girls here in the USA can't hand over their cash fast enough.

WHAT a refreshing change! Usually the movie is made ABOUT the war; now the War will be made ABOUT the MOVIE...North of the DMZ is truly 'no-man's land'... except for Fatboy!

It'd be one of the fastest wars since the Anglo-Zanzibar war of 1896.

This is serious.
N.Korea has reportedly dispatched elite forces to Washington to strike at the heart of America.
These forces are armed with begging letters asking for food.
This aggression must be tackled, no one minds a decent bit of charity but aggressive begging is well out of order.

Maybe Kim Jong-Un can pull a "Dubbya" and claim the US has dangerous weapons of mass destruction to justify a war with the US. If he claims we have such weapons of mass destruction, we'd only be too happy to show them to him...

I dont know why, but when i read this, i pictured that fat marshmallow playing in his room, smacking little toy missiles and army men together like Lord Helmet did in Spaceballs. I laughed harder than i should've.
