Can Paris Hilton act...???

I never said you guys are wrong in your opinion on this film. I'm just stating that you guys never gave it a fair chance because Paris Hilton was in it, which is pretty obvious the case. There's a difference between wanting to not like a movie when watching it, and giving a film a fair chance.

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?".

Well in that case, thrillers are vastly superior to horror. As for sterotypes, when it comes to movie watching, they are true. I refuse to go to midnight showings of movies ever again, because they are ALWAYS full of annoying teenagers who talk out aloud to each other and on their cell phones like they are in their living rooms. I bash an entire generation because they make it so easy to do so!

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. 

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".
