Earlier today, President Obama spoke out on Sony's decision to pull The Interview from theaters in response to terrorist threats linked to North Korea.
The POTUS agrees with Hollywood that the studio shouldn't have caved, and he offered a sort of consolation prize to the movie-going public by offering up some unintentional comedy of his own:
"I think it says something interesting about North Korea," said Obama while addressing the press. "That they decided to mount an all-out assault on a movie studio because of a satirical movie starring Seth Rogen and James Flacco."
Yes, in his mind, Obama seems to have combined James Franco and Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco into one perfect being with a passion for art and a desperate desire to make the playoffs.
It's an understandable slip-up, but it probably served as a colossal blow to Franco's famous ego, and the actor will probably spend the entire weekend rage-painting in the style of a hysterically sobbing Jackson Pollock.
Of course, James seems to be taking the news that his latest project will never see the light of day surprisingly well.
The same day it was announced that The Interview would never hit theaters, Franco went partying with Lady Gaga and Courtney Love.
Although that might be a form of mourning, we're not sure.
Either way, when you're as fame-obsessed as Franco, seeing the president eff up your name has gotta sting.
Could be worse, dude. Remember the time Obama called Kanye West a jackass? Even Republicans agreed with that one.
One email reveals that the studio is hoping to have Jennifer Lawrence, Melissa McCarthy, Emma Stone, and Lizzy Caplan star in the upoming all-female Ghostbusters reboot. Well, "all-female" isn't quite accurate. The ladies will be joined by an A-list male star, who will apparently need to be dragged to the set kicking and screaming...
