Justice

[Not That Guy]

This Video clip was banned 24 hours after it was shown on TV.
I cant work out if its real or if the victims are all actors.
Its damn good all the same.

The production values are so good that I think they're actors.
Where did it air before it got banned?

[Not That Guy]

Filmed and aired and banned in France.

What makes me think it was planned is that there were so many camera angles for each supposed attack. While it might have been easy to plan something like this when they were damaging inanimate objects like cars or other property, if they were going to attack a person and wanted a handheld camera and an overhead one, they'd have had to plan well in advance, and would have had a greater risk of arrest while doing it.

That being said, if it wasn't eral, I don't see why it was banned.

Theres only one camera

[Jen]

I swear it switches from handheld POV to a POV where they'd have to have had the camera a storey above them to film it.

It looks real. I'll give them that. The stylized music that runs through it takes away from that, though.

[Not That Guy]

Thats the point, its a Video clip for the band Justice.

[Jen]

Okay, I actually didn't know that.

Now I really think it's faked. I thought they were a bunch of randoms who wanted to be a gang in their matching clothes.

[Not That Guy]

The insignia on there jackets is from the album cover i think, However it was filmed by some semi famous street documentary maker.

[Jen]

I wasn't knocking the filmmaking, I'm just saying it's so stylized that i have a hard time believing it's real.

[Not That Guy]

I cant find anywhere that says its staged

[Jen]

I've been wrong before.

Maybe if someone else would watch it.

[Not That Guy]

Yea well apart from this convo its actually quite a catchy tune and good video.
Ive saved it and played it a few times.

Well the fact that the "bottle" he smashed on the bartenders head was made of rubber, and simply bent upon impact, proves that these fucking pathetic wannabe-but-too-scared-to-be criminals are nothing but idiotic little college boys using the money they get from there parents to attempt to make scare-tactic videos.

and Attempt. is the word.

it would have been an interesting video if the police (bearing in mind this video is from France, so the police are 100% useless) had simply asked them what they were doing.

it would've gone from a shitty action clip to a hilarious comedy one.

"but officer please we're only making a video, oh officer please don't arrest us!!!"

[Jen]

That actually would have been funny if the police would have wandered onto the set.

Remember that South Park where Cartman kept getting in trouble for filming his Bounty Hunter show?

Police: Little boy, you'll have to leave.
Cartman: That's cool, I was done making my video anyway.

Here's what I've found out about the meaning behind it, and possibly about why it was banned: they are Algerian and want to change the French government, due to a genocide that occurred in the 1900s. They also claim to be a Christian band.

because it's only purpose is to frighten the public and to profit from the people's fear. which they have, they have recieved tremendous amounts of money from rich individuals begging them to disclose to the people that the video is not real.

These stupid college dropouts are Terrorists, fail Terrorists yes, but Terrorists none the less.

from what i've found out, they are French citizens of Algerian descent, they call themselves a "Christian Band" and say the purpose of the video is to " Get back at france for the Genocide commited in Algeria in the early-mid 1900's "

damn you and your swift typing.

Whats needed here is a comparison on what a street type gang video used to be like.
Example (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXLHUThBib8)

Values have definitely changed
:p

[Brad]

Then change them back.

Control your Stress, Direct it towards those deserving, Don't just unleash it on innocent people.
