No, Sony just needs to hint about NK and let the media do the rest. The movie theatre threat is anonymous, right? So basically anyone else could just tag along for the ride.

And I'm not sure why it's stupid to think that a, from the looks of it, low-quality movie would not benefit from a "ban". Great hype for the movie, Sony might as well ride it. There's no upside for them to stand up and say "nope, we just have poor security and someone did it for the lulz".
