The bright spot in this scandal is learning that Sony is considering a Pee Wee Herman meets Spiderman movie. How fun is that? But on a more serious note, hackers with a vendetta against Sony pictures, have recently been hacking into Sony’s computer system and have been waging a serious war that, in their own words, is “intended to destroy Sony.” In addition to stealing at least 5 new films and putting them on the Internet for illegal downloading, the hackers have released emails that may prove to be  embarrassing to many people in Hollywood. The emails surprisingly, show just how mean and superficial the business can be, as execs discuss casting, production schedules, directors and penis sizes. There appears to be a multitude of egos of varying sizes as well, and not everybody gets along or respects each other. Constant negotiations and pleading and wheeling and dealing are part of the everyday machinery of this glamorous industry. Money and favors are exchanged on almost a daily basis and some people are popular one day and the next, not so much. People even wish bad luck for people, and in some cases, would like to see them fail miserably and if possible, literally destroyed. These emails are really ripping back the facade of what most people thought was a loving, friendly, supportive, family kind of business, based on the smiling jovial crowd everyone sees at The Academy Awards every year. “Just shocking!” said Roberta Slushwagon, a tourist from Des Moines who was interviewed, while taking some pictures on the Walk of Fame.”I’ll never look at Hollywood in quite the same way again,” she sighed, slowly shaking her head.

That may be how a lot of Americans view this debacle, so we can expect a lot of damage control at the next Oscars, when Ellen Degeneres will gently poke fun at The Eigers, the Weinsteins and The Rudins, and most likely, will again be tweeting award winning selfies with her 2015 besties.
