North Korea Officially Denounced The New James Franco Movie
Kim Jong Un's spokesperson has seen a preview of the new James Franco/Seth Rogen movie "The Interview," and he did not love it that much.

Apparently Kim Jong-un is none too tickled about the new James Franco/Seth Rogen movie "The Interview," in which they play tabloid journalists who score an interview with the North Korean leader but are enlisted by the U.S. government to assassinate him upon arrival.  

Well, Kim Jong-un must have a Google alert for "Kim Jong-un + hilarious comedy superstar," because his spokesperson has already released a statement about the film. 

“There is a special irony in this storyline as it shows the desperation of the US government and American society,” he told The Telegraph.

“A film about the assassination of a foreign leader mirrors what the US has done in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Ukraine,” he added.

“And let us not forget who killed [President John F.] Kennedy – Americans. “In fact, President [Barack] Obama should be careful in case the US military wants to kill him as well,” Kim Myong-chol said.

Just an amazing statement -- especially since he added that Kim Jong-un will still probably see the film anyway. Thanks for the love, guys.
