Dallas/Fort Worth’s Alamo Drafthouse To Do a Free Screening of “Team America: World Police” in Place of “The Interview” UPDATE: Screening Canceled
(via The Hollywood Reporter)
With Sony giving up on releasing Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg’s The Interview in any way, plenty of folks, us included, are outraged. Even with threats that referenced 9/11, plenty like Judd Apatow were willing to go to theaters to see The Interview in theaters.
Leave it to one of the best theater chains around, Alamo Drafthouse, to do something about this. Their Dallas/Fort Worth location was planning on screening The Interview and will now do one free screening of Team America: World Police on Dec. 27th at 7PM.
For those of you not familiar, Team America was the last comedy, from Trey Parker and Matt Stone, where American forces take on a North Korean dictator known as Kim Jong-Il.
So, with this in mind, take President Obama’s advice on the whole matter and go to the movies and maybe chant “America, F*ck Yeah!” while you’re at it.
UPDATE: Paramount Pictures has pulled this and other screenings of Team America: World Police. (via Deadline)
