Comparison Activity Lesson 5
For many years I’ve been in search of one of the most amazing films ever made, it’s called “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. When I was about nine years old I remember my mom giving me my allowance, and saying “now you can go buy your movie tickets to see Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory; since you earned it”. Remembering just how wonderful this movie was, I want to have one for my own collection. So, I decided it's about time to make a purchase of my own and add it to my collection of DVD’s set aside for my Grandchildren to enjoy. That’s when I decided to search the web …show more content…
“The library catalog is offered to student through the school web site to things view things like books, movies, products, and other things you may want to purchase” (Opposing viewpoints.com). Through the other web search engine Amazon, it offers a wide array of different items for sale. “Like for example, jewelry, movies, books, and poster; to name a few” (amazon.com). After a careful search of both web engines, I was able to locate the same exact item on both the opposing viewpoints (library catalog), and amazon web sites. While both of these web sites gave some much needed detail, each of them gave a much different tone when describing the overall contents of the film. For example, on the opposing viewpoints the author provides a warm, touching, and a heartwarming review of what the film consisted of along with what the film entailed.

As for the usefulness of this film, amazon’s reviews gave it an almost five stars, and gave a great review to its overall contents. It also mentioned how it was a wonderful children’s film and they would watch it over and over again. On the Opposing viewpoint site, they basically said it was “originally released as a motion picture” (Dahl, 2011, N.p). Like with everything these days’ people are in the market to purchase things in an instant, without thought, and finding ways to save a dime, and that’s why they use to use the internet hoping to land a bargain. But really, it would be nice to have a bit more information when looking for a purchase, because you want to know what the quality is, and is it worth the cost before jumping in and finalizing that sale. Just a final note, if you decide to purchase this item for yourself, or family, I would definitely suggest using the school library site since it gives you up to the date information than all the others. By taking my advice, I believe you’ll be happy with your choice, and purchase just like me. By using either of the two sites mentioned earlier, I’m sure you’ll enjoy every minute of such a wonderful selection you made; like I have.
