'The Interview' was intended for release on December 25th. After Sony was hacked in ways not seen before, the studio decided to pull the movie due to threats of violence. This petition encourages the release of the movie but is about more than the movie itself.

This petition is about not letting a country that violates human rights daily dictate the release of a film, or any film. This petition is sending a message that says we do not support North Korea and their human rights violations, and we do not support them using threats to dictate what the rest of the world can and can't see.

By not releasing the film Sony is essentially saying, "You're right, North Korea and the hackers that support you. You win." We are better than that. Sony should be better than that. But more importantly, North Korea needs to end its human rights violations. This petition will not do that over night, but it will be a step forward in showing that North Korea cannot silence the rest of the world.

This petition does not say how Sony should release 'The Interview.' Either stream it, offer it as PPV, put it in the theaters -- we don't care. But your (very likely) medicore movie should not be thrown away. Put it straight to DVD. Just release it.
