I just walked out of a movie for the first time today.

[JourneyThroughHell]

Only one... Monsters VS Aliens... not because it was bad but because my cousin was getting a hand job right next to me and he thought I didn't notice...<.<

Ahem... When you were sitting next to him? And, on a bigger note, during Monsters VS Aliens? I suggest you never go to any cinema with him ever again.

OT: Nope, never. Even as bad as Avatar was, I was seeing that movie through the end. I don't want to quit halfway through.

I've never walked out of a movie as I've rarely been the one footing the bill. However, had it been my money, I would have walked out of the following:

Transformers 2*
Up
Hoodwinked
Toy Story 3
Zombieland
Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World

...There's definitely more, but I can't think of them at the moment. Needless to say, I've all but sworn off American-made animation.


* I did pay for that one; problem is, my friend was my ride home

Who the hell walks out of Toy Story 3?

I walked out of Red, was going to walk out of Pearl Harbor but instead I fell asleep, walked out of the Phantom.

i enjoyed red. and the phantom. pearl harbor was terrible

I don't commonly go to the theatres, as most movies tend to suck. I go...maybe ten times or so a year. So I have yet to walk out on one. I have, however, downloaded a few movies I didn't want to pay for and deleted them midway through.

 

[Astoria]

I actually didn't mind that movie. It certainly wasn't as good as The Hangover but I didn't expect it to be. I've never walked out of a cinema but that's probably because I only ever go to see movies I really wanna see.

I just recently walked out of Little Fockers. Couldn't stand it at all, luckily the local theater has a 30 min into the film refund policy.

I have never walked out of a movie. If I pick a movie to see in theatres, I'm watching it in its entirety.

Someday, somewhere you will find some bile called a film and will be so nauseous from the fumes it calls "dialogue" that you will have no choice but to leave.

Spoiler: It is inevitable...

You may fight it but it is the will of the universe that you will someday encounter a film so terrible you cannot sit still and take it.

[sub][sub]I have never left a theatre myself but I know the day will come. Probably sooner now that taking film in University is making me even more aware of the mechanics of a movie.[/sub][/sub]

I walked out of Kill Bill Vol.1. I'm not sure what I was expecting but an hour of Tarantino's sadism was my limit. I guess I was hoping for something more like Reservoir Dogs

.......oh no u did'nt just say that all up in my house did u...?

Someone who doesn't like it?

 

[The Geek Lord]

Never walked out of a theater, but I could only watch 20-30 minutes of Twilight before I had to stop and just leave.

And that is why I hate it when we all start discussing how much Twilight sucks. Because then I get reminded of how I could have spent those thirty minutes watching YouTube, looking at porn, playing a video game, anything but making jokes like... Well... This.

Movie: "No wait, don't leave!"
Me: "I haven't put drugs in your food and date raped you yet!"

Now let us never discuss this glorified Special Victims Unit episode again.

 

[DiMono]

I don't recall ever walking out, but one movie I was really tempted to was Dinner for Schmucks. I didn't laugh at all until Carell's bit near the end (if you've seen it, you know what I'm talking about), and that was the only funny part of the entire movie. I'm glad I stayed to see it, but I would much rather have skipped everything that came before.

As for Avatar, if you figure out it's basically a retelling of Fern Gully and Dances With Wolves, and can enjoy it as such, then it was a great movie. If you didn't figure it out, or you weren't okay with it, then it was terrible because it was wholly unoriginal. I enjoyed it.

In general, I only see movies in theatre that I know beforehand are going to be good. Other movies I only see at home. I'll usually sit through a bad movie and treat it like an endurance challenge. Disaster Movie beat me, and it might be the only one.

 

[Adzma]

I almost walked out of Quantom of Solace but decided to struggle through it. I wanted to walk out of Watchmen too but I was with several friends so that was a no-go.

 

[Fridge]

Never walked out on a film part way through, well not at the cinema. I have turned movies off before that I've borrowed from mates because they were soooo dull.

 

[Rewdalf]

Avatar, The Last Airbender...
God damn.
Alright, they've mispronounced all of the character's names...
Allright Appa looks like crap and Aang is a buzzkill...
Alright Uncle Iroh is some bearded hobo...
The whole fire nation population is indian? Fuck this!
Screw you Shyamalan and your indian supremacy.

On of my best movie experiences was going to watch Scott Pilgrim VS The World, seeing the preview for that crappy movie where these people are trapped in an elevator with some creature, and hearing the whole theater laugh when M. Night Shyamalan's name popped up...

 

[mr_pants66]

i have a list

Australia: i could not get past the opening about how there are images of deceased people in this movie and aboriginals and torres strait islanders should watch out
(i got my ticket money back)

Napoleon dynamite: i got about to thirds through it and then i felt that i just could not subject myself to that shit any longer
(i did not get my ticket money back)
[and don't tell me it was a good movie because it was not]

Lady Killers: this one was a dvd but i just could not watch a bunch of wankers dig through some other wankers wall for that long and i took it back to the shop and got my cash back on it.

there are more but i will not go in to details here and now.

.......oh no u did'nt just say that all up in my house did u...?

Yeah, I found nothing redeeming about that movie, and I have a pretty high tolerance for crappy movies.

I was really tempted to walk out on Tron: Legacy today. Seriously, I paid for a 3D movie (slap on roughly 8 bucks), in which the first part wasn't even in 3D. After the main guy actually went into the grid is when the 3D kicked in, and by then, I already knew what the plot and who the bad guy would be and how the movie would end. Now usually, I'm fine with predictable plots if they are executed really well, but Tron just failed to actually have a plot in the first place =="

What I will say about the movie though is that it has a really good soundtrack and semi-good visuals. About the only thing the movie has going for it. I only stayed because I paid for it.

Amen to that. I watched a bit of it on TV a while back, which was the ending - the dancing part. I actually thought it was pretty good. Then I watched the beginning at my friend's house and just stopped after 4 minutes.

 

[Kermi]

I fell asleep during League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and stopped watching Disaster Movie about ten minutes in. That dance number just went on waaaay too long.

 

[Nexus4]

Almost did this to skyline, but my friend and I were to busy having fun with a sarcastic running commentary of the film ala Unskippable or Nostalgia critic

 

[Ignatz_Zwakh]

I walked out of Silver City. Kinda regretted it upon watching it a year later, since it's actually quite good. Wasn't really in the mood I guess... ><
