I just downloaded and watched Defiance off PSN. This movie snuck through the theaters and got overshadowed by Valkyrie months ago when it was released, proving that the market is only big enough for one WWII themed Nazi movie at a time. Having now seen both, Defiance is clearly the better movie all around.
The movie stars James Bond himself and few other recognizable actors. For starters, the characters actually speak English but with well-produced Eastern European accents, as opposed to the occasional Nazi general with a British accent in Valkyrie. But nevermind the accents, Defiance is a great story. Its a story of survival, revenge, love, brotherhood, and conflict. On several occasions the film brought difficult moral dilemmas to light that made me pause.
If you get a chance, check out Defiance.
Pretty amazing to see how rapidly prayer and intercession can move among God’s people over the interwebs. Little Kate McCrae and her family found out about her brain tumor 4 days ago and tonight her story was on Dr. Phil’s blog, all over the Twitter, and now there is a live prayer event streaming for her and her family.
#Yes, another new look over here. I am fickle and can’t decide what I want when it comes to my blog. After this, I can no longer criticize my 4 year old son for changing clothes 6 times a day.
#The day I have been working towards has come and gone… July 1. Today the culmination of my lifes work the last 6 months was due, the rebranding and renaming of my church from Superstion Springs Community Church TO Mission Community Church. What a relief to get the weight of renaming, logo design, implementation, style guides, communication process, etc etc off my shoulders.
#Just got done watching this movie… good thing I got it as a free rental for my birthday from Hollywood Video.
#My name is Nick Asolas. For work, I lead a media arts and communication team at Mission Church in Gilbert, AZ where I live with my wife, two sons, and our dog which we inherited. For fun, I redesign this blog, watch soccer, and read. If you want to talk, just email me.
