Contact is the only one I've walked out of, that wasn't by choice though, I got outvoted.
Like a lot of people, I figure if I've spent the money I may as well stick around. DVD on the other hand, if I've rented something that sucks ass I return it and say it wouldn't work in my player, and they let me get something else. |

I don't walk out of movies for the simple reason that when a movie is that bad, I want to see the whole thing so I can knowledgeably (is that a word) skewer anyone who tells me it was a good movie....

I wanted to walk out of 8mm, but my friends and I just stayed to make fun of it. There were actually only 3 or 4 more people in the theater and I could hear them making fun of it to.

I walked out of "The Care Bears Movie" and "101 Dalmnations," well, it was more like cried out of those movies. The freaky green head in a book scared the crap out of me in "The Care Bears Movie" and Cruela DeVille's freaky hair and eyes were burned into my retnas for at least 6 months.
What can I say, I'm a wuss when it comes to scary movies. For the record, I was only 4 when I saw these movies...

- I walked out on a horrible piece of shit called One True Thing with Renee Zellweger. Let me clarify that a bit. It was a very well made film, with good actors and an actual plot...
BUT... It was the most depressing film I have ever seen in my entire life. It was one of those movies that makes you wonder why people see the need to make movies like this just to make people sad. No humor existed in this movie whatsoever. - I went to see Dune (The David Lynch version) when it was first at the movies (1984-85). The theater was full of well-meaning folks who brought the kids and grandkids because they saw the commercials and thought it was going to be like Star Wars or something. During/after the Baron Harkonnen scene, I heard a mass exodus for the door. Out of an almost full theater, there were only five people left, me included.

I actually thought Dodgeball was hilarious. Lots of its humor was very subtle (the words "deux ex machina" on, well, the plot's deus ex machina), but even more of its humor was the slapstick stuff I love. It's all a matter of taste, I suppose.
I walked out of the room that Blade was on in. That was a Godawful movie.

I wanted to walk out of battlefeild earth. but I stayed not sure why really.
I want my money back for going to see House of 1000 corpses. If I see you on the street Rob Zombie you owe me 12.95. other than that I have seen some godawful movies but I usually stick it out. no idea why.

i would of walked out on contact but i was far too young at the time to have a vote.
that movie was 2 hours ( i think? maybe more it seemed like it anyway) of complete bore. you wait and wait and they rebuild that stupid ass swirling thing 3 times only for her to have a vision that no one can see and she ends up on a stupid beach. god damn just thinking about that movie gives me flash backs of the horrors. |

Summer of Sam.
That was the only movie I've ever walked out on, and after that day, I vowed to <B>never</B> watch another Spike Lee movie again. My friends had me all convinced it was going to be some cool slasher flick, but instead, it turned out to be some lame love story starring John Leguiziamo (sp?). My friends and I bitched for an hour after leaving that movie. We didn't want our money back, we wanted our two hours back. What a waste of film that movie was.

The only one I walked out of was What Dreams May Come. It got a little too disturbing for me and it was NOT your regular Robin Williams movie.

i walked out on "the crow"--and at the time i was working in a movie theatre and the screening was free. iw oudl think that makes it one of the wrost films i have seen.
that and the wretched version of "great expectations" with gwentyh paltrow. the list of films i wanted to walk out on is much much longer.

I haver walked out of a movie, because I don't go to them in the first place. Too loud, popcorn is approximately $769.47 per pound, always some 8 foot tall asshole in front of you, or a blabber behind you. Like rented movies, but the second coming of Christ wouldn't be worth seeing in a theatre.

Watched the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre the other night and almost turned it off simply cause the story was too fake (IMO)

I don't think I've ever really walked out of a movie. A few I've turned off are:
George Washington Josie and the Pussycats- a gf wanted to watch it.. not me Lulu that's all I can think of right now

(looked like a fun thread to revive)
I ran, not walked, RAN out of "Navy Seals" before it was finished. Partly because it blew donkey balls, but mainly to piss off a buddy who dragged me (and two others) to see it. The three of us got up and ditched him, running all the way home. God, that was more fun than the movie itself. I wanted to walk out of "Top Gun", but I was with other friends and the theater was too far to walk home from. I've turned movies off that I rented. Here's a partial list: -Dogville -The Aristocrats -A Fish Called Wanda -Men in Black -JFK

I heart Men In Black... because the pug speaks and I love the old dude.
I fell asleep in Van Helsing and we left Spiderman 3 about 20 minutes early because it was boring. We don't go to movies that don't get more than 60% on Rotten Tomatoes with very, very few exceptions. Under 60% is for at-home, sheer-boredom review.

My best friend in high school and I walked out of The Talented Mr. Ripley after Matt Damon bludgeoned Jude Law to death with an oar. That was just more than we could take.
Honestly, these days it takes a lot for me to go to a movie in the theater.

I almost walked out of Boogie Nights towards the end when it turned from an interesting character piece into a violent botched-theft flick, a la Pulp Fiction.
And PT Anderson was telegraphing that shit too. When a very black Don Cheadle, wearing a very white suit walks into a neon-lit technicolor donut shop, you just know shit's gonna go bad. I was fuming by the end.

I came damn close to walking out of the both of the first two Star Wars Prequels, it was scarcely worth it even with the military discount.

The only movie I've walked out on is Michael Collins - it was too much of a snooze. I fell asleep during Contact, Lost Highway, and Amistad; went with friends, walking out wasn't an option as they had the transportation. Hubby and I both wanted to walk out of Brothers Grimm, but for whatever reason, we both thought the other was enjoying it.
I have no qualms about turning off a movie at home.

The recent "A Nightmare on Elmstreet" remake made me want to walk out but I needed to see this horribly pussified version of Freddy Krueger get shanked by the budget version of the Twilight cast in what can only be described as another Michael Bay turd.
