Poll: Ever Walked out of a movie?

[Skobvs]

The invention of lying. The most irritating movie with an interesting concept that they screwed to hell. I was with a group of 5 other people, they were having a blast but I just walked out after 20 mins and got a refund. 5 mins later my friends turn up saying they had had enough of the same jokes over and over but they couldn't get a refund because "refunds will only be given 30 mins after the session start time".

My ex-girlfriend took me to see Twilight (i outright dislike it anyway but i was trying to be nice) I gave up at the part where they were in the forest part and Edward opened his shirt and sparkled like he just fell into a glitter-glue factory. Sorry i'm not one of those "hur hur twilight sucks!" people but it was sooooo cringe-worthy.

You're in the Escapist, it's full ofthe "hurr hurr Twilight sucks" people. Keep that shield for when you need it (Religion and Politics forum).

I walked out of 300, i really didn't care if this bastard lived or not. I still dont know what happened to him. Hope he lived,

If you walked out halfway through, you probably wouldn't have enjoyed the rest of it.

I fell asleep 6 or 7 times during that movie, rudely being woke up each time by the overdone fight scenes.

i watched a pirated copy of it a few months later. i didn't miss anything, and it was just as terrible.

The recruit, I actually fell asleep whilst watching that movie, then woke up and just walked out.

Only one to my recollection and that was About Shmit. Old people talking about sex made me squirm.

Taken. i made it about 45 minutes in, before realizing what an overdone piece of cliche shit it was, and walked out. i finished watching it later, after being harassed by a few friends claiming what an awesome movie it was, but my opinion was not unchanged, and i now know that i shouldn't trust my friend's opinions on movies.

The tone they set was far too serious. if they had handled the matter with more of a post-modern, over-the-top, satirical film making as seen in movies like Kill Bill vol. 1 or Shoot 'Em Up, it could have worked. i mean seriously, another "oh, my child's been kidnapped, and i have to rescue them" plotline?

Plus, seeing liam neeson in such a role would be friggin awesome.

Spiderman 3, right at the point where he starts dancing. That was the point it just got far too farcical.

 

[Dr.Susse]

I fell asleep in the newest James Bond and walked out of one flim. Saw 3 or 4 only because I hate snuff films.

Dragon ball evolution

 

[Soxafloppin]

I walked out of the first hulk, that was an terrible movie.

 

[Kwaren]

I haven't walked out of one on my own but when I was younger my mom made me walk out of Joe Dirt and Congo

Doubt you'll need that on this site, most people are sensible not particularly pro-Twilight.

OT: Nope, I might as well sit through it. What if the last fight sequence is really awesome? You never know....

 

[Spaghetti]

Not yet. When I was you and ignorant I could enjoy most things you sat me down in front of. That or my Sister was with me and I couldn't exactly walk out.

Now adays, I have such a jaded view of Cinema and Holywood, that when I do go to see a movie, I pretty much already know if I'm going to like it or not. The only movie I've been to recently without any research was The Ghost Writer...turned out to be a great film anyway, so no worries

Dragon ball evolution

you went to the theater and expected the movie to be worth any money??? i pity you.

 

[GrinningManiac]

I stopped watching Sunlight half-way through

It was at home, though. If I had seen it at the cinema, I would have DEFINATLEY walked out, though

I HATE THAT FILM MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE EVER

 

[MelasZepheos_v1legacy]

I generally don't even go to a movie unless I think I'm going to like it, but I came damn close to walking out of Harry Potter 5 and 6. The only reason I stayed was because my family was there for HP5, and my girlfriend was there for HP6, so at least the second time I got to make fun of the movie with her as well.

I really don't think I'm going to enjoy HP7 (either movie) but I'm still going to go and see it, just for the sheer pigheaded determinedness to say that I saw all of them at the cinema.

 

[Yoshi-Pop]

Max Payne. It was just SO boring.

 

[Jaranja]

No but I did fall asleep during Grudge 2.

I FELL ASLEEP DURING A HORROR MOVIE!

That's when you know you've got a disgustingly awful PoS on your hands.

 

[TheodoreLuke]

The new Texas Chainsaw Massacre. That movie was just plain awful.
