They're going to fly hijacked airplanes into movie theaters?

But yes, RIP Eraserhead. We will never forget you. Cry

Well they're caving because the theaters caved. Once AMC, Regal, etc. said they weren't running it, Sony didn't really have a choice.

I imagine it was a contract hitjob by Chinese hackers.

Yeah, there are plenty of Chinese and Russian hacker "freelancers" out there. The North Koreans probably just found one and paid him a few million dollars. I doubt this is the work of whatever the North Korean CIA is.
