North Korea

the one with the nurses and the babies is the most horrifying

Holy shit at the number of movies I consider acts of war. Kim Jong Un clearly has dad's movie buff genes. He should move to LA and exercise some real power.

pic no 23 - winter olympics or bust!

The "reckless U.S. provocative insanity"

for some reason i read that as the "reckless U.S. procreative insanity"

Reckless North Korea proactive insanity.

"reckless... provocative insanity" - North Korean Foreign Ministry could be a good blurb for this movie. not a bad phrase when the ill-placed "U.S" is removed.

North Korea are the trolls of the world. I love it.

north korea: i'm lovin' it

this one might be the most terrifying of all, from that photo series:

I found that meteorological dept one quite chilling, it is one of the rare pics where he isn't surrounded by the military or WPK people and they look terrified.

kim jong un more like kim jong ill

suffering from "discomfort"?

read somewhere he's got gout which is pretty lol for a guy so young as he is. though i guess organ meat is probably a pretty reliable source of meat in nk

It has been claimed that Kim has been putting his health at serious risk due to his dangerously high consumption of Emmental cheese...

Weird.

In NYC and trying to decide whether to stay feet, blocks, or miles away from Sunshine Cinema on Thursday night.

So the entire nation's internet infrastructure is currently offline, or has been taken down? Hmm.

Also, apparently the reported number of NK IP addresses is a paltry 1024. Total. Not shocking but still wow.

WPLG Local 10 News ‏@WPLGLocal10 -- #BREAKING (AP) -- North Korea suffers massive Internet outages; US official declines to say if it is responsible.

us bein' coy.

should offer joint investigation to uncover the culprit

i nominate james franco to chair the blue-ribbon panel convened to get to the bottom of this fiasco.

i'm confused - how can north korea possibly have hackers w/ better skills than, idk, ur average 2600 subscriber?

Comment from the Guardian..

"Ah, South Korea changed their wifi password."

Back online

If thats the best our govt can do I'm a little disappointed. Can we kill kju w a drone or something

In the lobby after a screening of The Interview.

the only 9 people who watched the interview

Liking that sky-blue smock.

he looks like a wax model of himself

he looks like a wax model of himself after eating a before picture wax model of himself

the photo does make you wonder what cracks a sociopathic stalinist head of state up.

i'm assuming that he just made a joke and then everyone was like "oh dear leader you are so funny aaahahahahaAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAHAHAAHHHHAAAAHAHAAAAAAAAHAAAAHAAHA OH FUNNY SUPREME LEADER!!!!!!!ahahahahahaahahaahahaaaahahaahahahahahaha, ahem, ahahaha, ahahahahaha, hahahahah, oh dear leader, good one"

for some reason the supreme leader's jokes always seem to be the funniest

still hilarious

I heard national orchestras are hotbeds of sedition

Kim Jong Un personally inspected the plans for this new water park 113 occasions and had his prime officers security check the water slides.

he'd have my vote

from this ^^

Would probably be good to have a thread title change.

Following on from the report of top officials being knocked off, the S.Korean intelligence agencies have said that the Defence Minister, Hyon Yong-Chol, was executed "with anti-aircraft guns in front of an audience of hundreds":

For falling asleep during a parade, i should add.

anti-aircraft guns holy shit

consistently my least favorite ilx thread title

might any govs be interested in assassinating kim jong un or is it seen as too risky/otherwise not worthwhile?

who knows what would happen if he was assassinated? that would seem to be the big issue, contingency planning
