This is the first DVD Showdown we have featured on Literary Illusions so before we get straight to it I am going to explain a little bit about the process. Being that we are in love with Blockbuster at our house and use our account frequently, thanks to the online program they offer, we watch a lot of movies. Blockbuster sends us three at a time. We could write reviews for all of them and probably will, but we also felt that a little comparison would be in order to show our views on specific movies.

Our showdowns will let you know what we think of two different movies based on certain criteria. We will test on plot, star power/acting ability, time management, money management (Movie Theater, video store, or cable worthy), quality of effects, and the overall appeal of the movies.

We will attempt to do movies in the same genre when we do this because that makes it easier on everyone. While you could compare Children of the Corn to Private Benjamin they are in different fields and should be judged differently. While we have others planned, our first is going to be in the horror/thriller genre. Our first showdown is going to be First Born vs. Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. You will be able to find that review in the Movies Section of Literary Illusions.

If you find there are two movies that you would like us to do a showdown on let us know. We would be more than happy to check out the movies and offer our thoughts.
