The Next Picture Show always finds pertinent comparisons for the most current big releases. The parallels go beyond the superficial and obvious and in every episode the team walks one through similarities or contrasts one would not necessarily have thought about. Thus, with a trove of available pairings at the reach of my fingertips, I am starting a series of deathmatches based on the podcast's weekly discussions.
Will someone out of the past take possession of these living beings, or will the present triumph? In the wise words of the historical rap battles of history, you decide.

I was at a party once, and, uh, Liddy put his hand over a candle, and he kept it there. He kept it right in the flame until his flesh was burned. Somebody said, "What's the trick?" And Liddy said, "The trick is not minding."

I prefer Spotlight (4/5) over AtPM (3.5/5).
