Re: Have you ever walked out of a film/movie?
Never at the cinema - but then, I very rarely go. One film I would have been tempted to walk out of was G.I. Joe - except the only reason I was watching it was that I was stuck in town with 4 or 5 hours to kill. There were also plenty of times, when I was still with my parents, when the family would all be watching a dvd or a film recorded off the telly, and twenty minutes in I would leave, thinking "this is shit and there are so many better things I could be doing".

I just had to google that. I've never seen more than a few clips of it actually. I was going to watch it but the South Park episode where they show it as Lucas and Spielberg raping Indy, kind of put me off.Animavore wrote:IJATKOTCS

Re: Have you ever walked out of a film/movie?
Cabaret got rave reviews lauding the film about its profundity and style, and friends who had seen it thought it was great. I found it to be a lavishly produced painting by numbers type concoction. When the bell rang at the end of intermission, we looked at each other quizzically: do we really want to see the rest? We decided there are better things to do with our time and went home.
The Best of the New York Erotic Film Festival is a collection of short films collated by an aversion therapist who wants to put everyone off sex. Cheap and nasty strip shows compare favourably to it. It made me shudder contemplating what the second best of it could possibly be. Twenty minutes into the show I was out of there.

I've never walked out of a film. If I've paid my money for it, I'm gonna watch it.
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.
But those letters are not silent.
They're just waiting their turn.

I walked out of Coffee and Cigarettes. Man that was bad shit. I also walked out of Train Spotting, mainly because I'd taken my mum to see it and she was too horrified.

I'm willing to write off a movie ticket if I am thinking of all the interesting things I could be doing at the time.tattuchu wrote:I loved Radio FlyerBella Fortuna wrote:I got free tickets to a preview of "Radio Flyer"... half the audience walked out - it was utter shite.But it's been many many years since I've seen it. Not sure what I'd make of it today.

Something's Gotta Give. Went to see it just because of Jack Nicholson. What a pile of shit.
What Women Really Want. Went to see it just because of Mel Gibson. What a pile of shit.

Pity the scene is plagiarised. Unfortunately I can't recall the director or the film, except that both were Italian, but it was done much better there.Gawdzilla wrote:Creepiest song in the movies.Seraph wrote:Cabaret got rave reviews lauding the film about its profundity and style, and friends who had seen it thought it was great.
