I take back the first 12 words. However, I think it's better than the original. Here's why (skip to 06:02):

Well, the owners of the music usually don't like their music floating around for people to hear for free, so we'll see how long it lasts. It's a nice gesture to the music fans, but the music industry can sometimes be just as money-hungry as the movie industry.]]> Wed, 02 Jun 2010 17:23:00 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4326&PID=31695#31695 HOUSE of WAX (aka HOUSE of WHACKS) : The Soundtrack http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4326&PID=31694#31694 Author: moviewizguy

Yeah, I've gotten into lots of trouble before by posting loads of copyrighted material. I've gotten so many warnings that, at one point, my account was banned. But thanks to my legal skills (well, I actually got help from a person who was in the same situation I was), I've managed to make  "my case" and they restored my account, so it's all good for now. And yes, they e-mailed me about the copyright issues, but they're still viewable, unless the owner of the music decides to change their mind.

You do know that YouTube removes all copyrighted material because they live in fear of being sued? Just saying, don't be surprised if you tell you to remove all the videos. ]]> Wed, 02 Jun 2010 14:13:08 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4326&PID=31686#31686 HOUSE of WAX (aka HOUSE of WHACKS) : The Soundtrack http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4326&PID=31685#31685 Author: moviewizguy

While the film doesn't get much love as it should, the soundtrack certainly doesn't get enough love as it should. In my opinion, it ranks up there with some of the best soundtracks ever created. Because of this, I've taken the liberty to post the entire HoW soundtrack on Youtube for your hearing pleasure, hopefully making the score more well known. I think it's truly underrated: http://www.youtube.com/user/moviewizguy#grid/user/CDFD88F0AD5AB8B4]]> Wed, 02 Jun 2010 12:31:56 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4326&PID=31685#31685 HOUSE of WAX (aka HOUSE of WHACKS) : Can Paris Hilton act...??? http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24&PID=31672#31672 Author: BurnHollywoodBurn

1) Bay still has creative control over what appears in his movies (like how people act like stereotypes), and stereotypes have appeared in ALL of his movies.  

2) Well now, if a stereotype becomes universally accepted, it's not a stereotypes any more. Then it's a fact.

1) You do realize Michael Bay doesn't write his movies? 
2) Whether a stereotype is true or not, it's still a stereotype.

I didn't say anything about Bay and his use of black stereotypes. But while you're on the subject, yes, the man's use of stereotypes is yet another reason why he's a hack. He has used stereotypes of blacks, Asians, gays, and everything in between. Stuff like that was funny back in the 1930s, but nowadays, it's just insulting. 

As for my stereotypes about the rude movie-watching habits of teenagers...hey, when it happens every ... single ... time ... I go to the movies, it's NOT a stereotype.

I did in the end, but my point at the beginning still stands -- that any scene in a movie that lasts longer than it takes to blink is considered "boring" by the standards of today's youth. "Shining" was long because it was building characters, backstory, and tension, so that when Jack finally does go insane, you gave a damn about what happens to the characters, and you are fearful about what happens next. I would figure someone who praised "Paranormal Activity" would understand that. However, nowadays, horror movies are just "hire a bunch of models, have them run away scared while half naked and then killed them off in either overly violent or unrealistic ways". ]]> Tue, 01 Jun 2010 12:42:41 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24&PID=31668#31668 HOUSE of WAX (aka HOUSE of WHACKS) : Can Paris Hilton act...??? http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24&PID=31666#31666 Author: moviewizguy

Did you realize, with the post below, you completely changed the subject?

Not so much the length of the movie, I'm talking about the pacing. If it's not shot like a music video, with the cuts lasting only 3 seconds, you lose interest. You love bringing up "Clockwork Orange" when debeating horror movies. The reason why "CO" is vastly superior than any slasher or torture porn movie is because of it's slow pacing, and long cuts, and what is NOT shown on-screen. Plus, it got its point across about violence in society with only a handful of blood, rather than using buckets worth of the stuff. Slashers and torture porn aren't about social commentary, they are just "how much can we get away with before the MPAA gives us an NC-17 rating?".
