'The Interview' is a disgusting film and should be banned

The Interview' is a disgusting film that conveys terrorism in a comical fashion and the sheer arrogance of Western culture. Ironically, the film portrays a form of terrorism that had shocked the US (the same nationality of the main characters and themes) back in the early 1960s when President Kennedy was brutally assassinated in front of a live audience of civilians. In fact, it genuinely wouldn't surprise me at this point if North Korea shot back with a film that re-enacted the scene of Kennedy's head being punctured with a pistol bullet but in a humourous style that we could never understand due to being brought up in a society with contrasting ideologies. How would we feel if that happened? How would Western nations react if North Korea, or any other alienated Eastern country produced a film that turned one of the United States' most infamously horrific scenes into a farcical comedy featuring Kim Jong Un or some unknown Asian actor as the man with the not so golden gun? I'd just to like to point out at this stage to the debater and the voters that I'm not a skeptic, anti-comic or anything affiliated with these titles - I love comedy and I'm a very light hearted person. But 'The Interview', despite being engulfed in positive media attention and after Sony's masterful sales stunt, presenting itself as rising symbol for the 'American dream' and free speech in Western culture, I strongly believe that anyone that pauses to dig under the glossy white snow of the movie will find a heap of maggot-filled American dog crap. What is the purpose of a movie in the genre of comedy? First of all, to make people laugh and secondly, to entertain the viewer through the ignition of this emotion. I can almost certainly guarantee that 'The Interview' has succeeded in doing this for the most part throughout the US and other similar Western countries. However, the question that needs to be asked now is, was it worth it for all the intensity it has sparked in North Korea, a country that has already warned of its hostility due to US provocation? The film isn't exactly a blockbuster and the the main catalyst for sales was the featuring of Rogen and Franco throughout the movie who where already Internet cult hits through their strange partnership in the series of spoof music videos they did last year. I can't deny that the film is definitely a movie that could be defined as humourous but I felt shockingly terrible after even the slightest of giggles. I'm not defending North Korea. Their human rights are shocking and after digging deeper than the click-baited headlines of Bing and The Daily Mail, I've realised that they are by no means a perfect country - but neither are the US, who incidentally are one of the most corrupt countries on the planet along with countries like Russia and China. However, North Korea are not a terrorist country like the media has illustrated them to be. They are not in any way in association with ISIS, the war in Eastern Europe or the infamous Taliban, and they most certainly have absolutely nothing to do with 9/11, which was a very poignant standing point for many Americans who proclaimed that the film must be released to protect the vows made by the US government after the buildings were torn down. North Korea are simply an extremely strict country that runs a vastly different political and social structure to us. Generally speaking, the East will never understand democracy and the West will never understand anything that isn't democracy, but that doesn't mean we should stab each other in the back just because we don't believe in each others ideas. Simply because North Korea are ruled by a dictator and live by contrasting rules to western countries like ours, doesn't mean we should alienate them as some unknown evil force that only has the desire to attack and kill everything it sees. The film is undeniably an act of war in the most blatant of forms and I would be stunned if North Korea didn't fight back with a physical, justified method of retaliation. When you look back to the lead up to the first world war, the causes of the outbreak of the international conflict were quite simple; a build up of tensions in certain parts of Europe (the Balkans) and the assassination of a country's leader (Franz Ferdinand). Of course, it's 2014 and we've definitely learnt an abundance from our crucial errors in the past, but it's very likely that this movie (along with other things like the rise of ISIS and the tensions between Ukraine and Russia) could lead to a global conflict. It doesn't matter how comical the film was created to be, it still depicts the murder of a REAL world leader - it wouldn't matter if the film was presented in the genre of horror, romance, or just straight up action and adventure, the film paints the picture of a legitimate act of terrorism and that alone is morally wrong.
