Actually, the NK leadership is quite concerned about one item you note ... dropping DVDs of the movie into NK, strange as that may sound. We here in America sometimes have a tough time understanding how truly wacko the NKs really are, but they are brought up from birth taught that the Dear Leader is a God. Secular atheism is pretty much standard procedure for progressive regimes, but NK takes it to a world class extreme, plus couples it with a communist hereditary monarchy (an interesting oxymoron in its own right)

The NK regime is concerned that, if people who are oppressed and starving in most cases, see the Dear Leader being blown to pieces in a movie, that it might cause them to doubt his divinity and thus his legitimacy and ... so forth, such that the whole house of cards unravels. I have seen a bootleg copy of the ending and it’s hilarious … to the tune of some rock music, and in slo-mo, Kim’s helicopter is hit with a missile, he meets his Maker and the last scene is his hair on fire.

Which leads me to think … dropping DVDs of this movie all over NK is indeed a great idea.
