What would be cool is if someone started a fund on a crowdfunding website to buy the film off Sony. Price to cover Sony for their production costs. - Loyola Dec 17, 16:17 9
- I have a really strong feeling that Sony is going to kill the movie all together. I would say 90% certain they are going to shelf it. - Bacon Dec 17, 16:24 5
  - It's terrible. Freedom of expression, I hardly knew you. -- nm - Loyola Dec 17, 16:28 4
    - We will not get through 2015 before a controversial movie gets threatened again. Precedent is set. - Bacon Dec 17, 16:34 1
      - Totally agree. It's complete subjugation. -- nm - Loyola Dec 17, 16:44
    - freedom of melodrama is alive and well. -- nm - Reagen Dec 17, 16:34 1

    - Not out of fear. Out of residual contempt and general apathy towards Sony. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 17, 16:31
Brother Daniel, are there movie insurance indemnities for catastrophic situations like this? -- nm - David Dec 17, 16:07 2
- That could make for an interesting article - "Did Sony make more money on cancellation insurance than it would have in theatres?" -- nm - Beryllium Dec 17, 16:08 1
  - I imagine the e-mails discussing this possibility will be released on Monday. -- nm - Mop Dec 17, 16:09
