Still haven’t made it through episode 1 of Paradise S2. Nothing about it makes me care. Bad creative decision on their part. What an insane fall-off.

Mark Henry on Vince McMahon telling him that he could take off for as long as he needed after his mom passed away “Vince was like look I know you’re a momma’s boy. Get out of here and come back when you’re ready. I was out a year. He paid me every week.”

My wife was formerly promiscuous. I was a virgin. She was then radically born-again. Committed to church, evangelized constantly, Puritan books in her bedroom, prayer journals, grief over past sexual sin, etc. We got to know each other well for over a year, dated for four months, engaged for two and a half, and didn't sin sexually with one another. Our first kiss with each other was at the altar on our wedding day (reaction pic attached!). We've been married for over five years now, and she's been the most wonderful and godly wife, mother to our three children, and homemaker you could imagine. She's more pure than most virgins, as biblical purity has less to with past sins (though they certainly matter) and more to do with one's current posture of the heart and daily decisions to honor the Lord (Matt. 5:8). We're far too quick to forget the story of the woman labeled as a known "sinner" (likely a prostitute) in Luke 7:36-50 who was washing Jesus' feet with her tears while kissing them too. The Pharisees were shocked that Jesus let a public sinner do this. Jesus responded with a parable about debts being forgiven and ended with this powerful conclusion: "Her many sins have been forgiven; that’s why she loved much. But the one who is forgiven little, loves little" (Luke 7:47). Everyone seems to highlight the benefits of virginity, and it certainly is a blessing. But we forget to highlight the benefits of being forgiven much as well. My wife knows the depths of Jesus' forgiveness more than most people, enabling her to more easily live out a life of passionate love for her Savior. A woman or man's past sexual sin matters. But what matters far more when it comes to deciding who to marry is if the person is truly born again, if their repentance is real, if they truly have a heart for Christ, if they truly follow Jesus and obey his commands. "God has chosen what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen what is weak in the world to shame the strong. God has chosen what is insignificant and despised in the world ​— ​what is viewed as nothing ​— ​to bring to nothing what is viewed as something, so that no one may boast in his presence. It is from him that you are in Christ Jesus, who became wisdom from God for us ​— ​our righteousness, sanctification, and redemption, — in order that, as it is written: 'Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.'" (1 Cor. 1:27-31) "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, and see, the new has come!" (2 Cor. 5:17)

If someone argues that a former promiscuous woman is "damaged goods" and questions whether a Christian young man should marry her, remember Rahab. She was a Canaanite prostitute but became a mother in the lineage of Jesus. God redeemed her, cleansed her, and Salmon married her.

The weapon you're looking at is real. Dragon's Breath is a 12-gauge shotgun shell packed with shards of magnesium and zirconium, two metals that catch fire the moment they hit open air. When fired, they burn at roughly 4,000°F and shoot a wall of flame up to 100 feet. Banned in four US states. No major ammo company makes it. It's a custom-built novelty round with zero documented military use. They didn't fire real ones on set. Every gun on a John Wick production is a "plug gun," meaning the barrel is physically blocked. Nothing comes out. But the fire you see on screen? Largely real. Stunt performers were covered in fuel and rigged to ignite on cue. When Keanu's shotgun "hits" them, small charges on their bodies go off, and they're actually engulfed in flames. The visual effects team then filmed real Dragon's Breath rounds separately and layered the gunfire effects over the footage. Chad Stahelski's lighting concept for the scene was, in his own words, to light the set with people on fire instead of stage lights. The camera angle came from a 2019 indie video game called The Hong Kong Massacre. Stahelski saw the overhead perspective and realized the gunfire would draw visible lines across the screen, like an Etch A Sketch. Top-down shots normally look boring because you're just staring at the floor. So production designer Kevin Kavanaugh gave every single room a different floor surface and filled each space with props that could be smashed apart during the fight. The camera itself hung from the same cable-cam system used to capture aerial shots at the Super Bowl, suspended on four wires above 14-foot walls. The soundstage was actually too short for the rig. Everything had to be compressed to fit. What looks like one unbroken shot is actually 4 separate takes, digitally sewn together at 3 invisible seams. The stunt team rehearsed for 12 straight days before cameras rolled. On set, stunt coordinator Stephen Dunlevy counted every single beat out loud, over 200 total, so the camera operators, stunt performers, and Keanu all hit their marks at the exact same time. Keanu had roughly 100 choreographed moves to execute. The crew treated the whole thing like a musical number. They filmed it in 3 days. The mirrors in the scene were empty frames with no glass. GoPro cameras sat inside for reference angles. Every reflection was created digitally. The film had 1,523 VFX shots across 14 studios. Stahelski, who took over as Brandon Lee's stunt double after Lee was killed by a prop gun on the set of The Crow in 1993, runs sets where not a single gun injury has occurred across four John Wick films and hundreds of thousands of rounds fired.

3 years after it's premiere, the “Dragon’s Breath” sequence in 'John Wick Chapter 4' still remains modern action filmmaking at its absolute best.
