PETER DINKLAGE Holds Down Cover Of Rolling Stone. Pimp-Slap Of Glee.
I love me some Peter Dinklage as Tyrion on Game of Thrones, and what I love even more is the universal acclaim it has brought the maestro behind Miles Finch from Elf. The Good Dink is continuing his Recognition Tour this week, snagging the cover to Rolling Stone. Pretty cool. Yeah, that’s about it. Pretty cool. Carry on.
Hit the jump to check it out.

‘HARLEY QUINN’S REVENGE’ TRAILER Reminds You How Dumb She Is In ‘ARKHAM CITY’
I deplore the design of Harley Quinn in Arkham City and Arkham Asylum. Whatever sort of menace and charm she has in regular old Bats canon is replaced with a slutty Juggalo vibe. The trailer for Ms. Quinn’s upcoming DLC doesn’t do anything to dissuade me of my feelings, but rather just reminds me of what a whorish Hot Topic clown would look like.
Judge for yourself.
‘ASSASSIN’S CREED III’ GAMEPLAY TRAILER Is Bear Fighting Greatness
Here’s the gameplay trailer for Assassin’s Creed III, the joint having been unlocked through whatever sorts of Facebook chicanery that Ubisoft required. Now that it is here, g’damn! The creamy hotness is oozing out of this title. ACIII seems all the delicious murder of the franchise’s previous installments with enough of a remix to make everything glimmer a-new.
Lemire Announces End of ‘SWEETH TOOTH’ With December’s Issue #40. Frown.
I didn’t see this one coming. Jeff Lemire has announced that his creator-owned title Sweet Tooth will be concluding with issue #40 this December.
The Avengers Receipts, or how much does it cost to destroy NYC? (Answer: $160 billion)
Remember that time Loki broke Manhattan? I do, because I watched his fine ass do it in glorious digital 2D (fuck 3D). But whether it be Loki, Doc Oc, the aliens from Independence Day, or whoever the villain was for the Fantastic Four movies (I’ve pretty much blocked them out, so it’s all very hazy), no one ever really thinks about the damages.
So, how much would it cost to beat the shit out of the Big Apple?
‘DJANGO UNCHAINED’ Loses Kurt Russell and Sacha Baron Cohen. OH WELL.
I’m pretty friggin’ stoked for Django Unchained, and there isn’t much that can be done to deflate my excitement. So while two actors I am not disinclined to rub-up upon have left, I shall continue with my jittery smirks when contemplating this flick.

Light From Alien SUPER-EARTH Seen For 1st Time. Yeah, NASA!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh, this is getting my goddamn jollies off. Cover your eyes, close your mouth. There’s excite-fluids being flung. NASA has detected light from an alien “Super-Earth” for the first time. How, you ask? Hope you got a minute.

La haine: 17 Years of Hate, Now in HD
On April 6, 1993, Makome M’Bowole, a youth of Central African descent, was shot in the head at point blank range while handcuffed to a radiator in a Paris police station. The police called it an “accident.” There had been hundreds of these so-called accidents since the 1980s around Paris and its low-income suburbs – known as banlieue districts. Needless to say, these senseless deaths at the hands of bonehead cops repeatedly led to rioting and birthed an unbearable tension between immigrant youths and the police.
This volatile banlieue society is captured in Mathieu Kassovitz‘s landmark 1995 film, La Haine. An eruptive and stylistically beautiful film, La Haine looks at one day in the life of three kids from immigrant families living in a working-class banlieue housing project outside of Paris. Vinz the Jew (Vincent Cassel), Saïd the Arab (Saïd Taghmaoui), and Hubert the African (Hubert Koundé) are all recovering after a night of heavy rioting. During the previous night’s chaos, a friend of the boys, Abdel, was shot by a cop and is in critical condition in Paris. One other possibly explosive thing happened the night before: a cop lost his gun. And Vinz found it.
