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.
Marion Cotillard Says She Is NOT Talia Al Ghul In ‘DARK KNIGHT RISES’, Yeah. Okay.
Marion Cotillard is all up in the Web(z) stating emphatically that she’s not Talia Al Ghul. Allow me to inform you of something! I don’t buy it. Imma bet this is some Obi-Wan equivocating.
THIS WEEK on Game of Thrones: “The Old Gods and the New”
Sunday’s hour of Game of Thrones felt a scant 20 minutes, loaded with shock factor, upheaval and the brand of Westerosi monstrosity we’ve become accustomed to.
“The Old Gods and the New” is a phrase we’ve heard many, many times in Westeros. The Old Gods were kept by the original, ‘first men’ of Westeros. The New Gods are the Seven — the Mother, the Father, Warrior, the Crone, the Smith, the Maiden, and the Stranger.
And still newer gods come from all directions; Melisandre’s Red God, which Jaqen has invoked. Syrio’s God of Death, to whom we say, not today. And certainly not least, the Drowned God of the Ironmen, to whom payment was made on Sunday, with Rodrik Cassel’s head.
‘BIOSHOCK INFINITE’ Delayed Until 2013; This Is Not Rapturous.
Fuck me sideways while kicking me in the jimmy with a hallucinogen-laced spike. BioShock Infinite has been delayed until after the Moment of Mayan Reckoning, and suddenly the world glimmers less.
The Meming of Life: Courage Wolf VS. Insanity Wolf
There is a fine line betwix courage and insanity, and the same rings true in the universe of meme. These two pups are the perfect archetypes for a deeper discussion on the difference. Some of our most beloved heroes we would probably consider insane, and so many of our insane villans have far more courage than the rest of us pleabs. The best part about the meme world is that there is a layer cake of laughter with some real depth down in the middle for those who care.
Just like last week, let me know which you enjoy most in the comments. God-speed, and good luck.

The Dude’s High 5s: Girl Power – Top 5 Kickass Female Protagonists
With Mother’s Day fast approaching I wanted to pay homage to the fairer sex in some way. I thought to myself; why not send out a High 5 to the kickass ladies of Hollywood? I wanted to steer clear of the Suzy-Homemakers and the Damsel in Distress tropes that pop up everywhere. So here we go, 5 ladies that kickass and take names … no word on their stance on bubble gum.
