    Have you ever walked out of the cinema during a movie? Or have you ever rented a movie and quit watching it and never seen the ending?

    I've never leaved, but I fell asleep while watching Sofie's Verden, a Norwegian movie about a girl who can travel to different eras. And the only rental movie I've turned off is Scary Movie 4. :mog:

    What a coincidence. The only movie I've ever walked out of was Scary Movie 1.

    The only times I've walked out have been when I walked in, saw that it was completely packed, walked out and traded my ticket for a later showing. That happens every so often.

    Oh and that one time when me and my friends walked into the wrong theater and we were like, wtf is this movie?

    There have been plenty of movies that I returned without watching but that's more cause I'm lazy than anything else. Too busy or tired to watch the DVDs I get from netflix.

    Even really really really bad movies like Real Women Have Curves, I sat through. I don't know why. I guess I just don't like paying $10 for a movie and not actually sit through it.

    I always sit through a movie even when it sucks but I will start to yell verbal abuse at the screen near the last quarter of it.

    Comments include : "Oh Come on! WTF! Affleck as Daredevil, yeah right!!"

    Oh my god, I saw Scary movie 1 at the cinema with my mom. I thought I was going to die in the bedroom scene.

    I don't think I made it that far.

    I fell asleep during Kingdom of Heaven when it was on TV. It was taking too long to get to the swordings.

    50 First Dates. I walked out though because me and my friends couldn't see the screen. We had just been rejected entry into a nightclub and we were drunk as hell.

    I saw it, while in the fifth grade, with my friend and his mom, who is relatively strict.

    I usually see movie through to the end. I think I turned off Dawn of the Dead (original) when I watched it (downloaded it, admittedly) just because it was like an hour into it and it seemed like nothing had happened and I felt like doing something else. If I pay for a movie, though, no matter how bad, I'll watch it through. Even absolute turds like Fantastic Four.

    Haha I saw Scary Movie 1 with my mom for my 11th birthday.

    And I agree with Miriel about the not walking out on movies thing. That's why I don't do it.

    I've stopped watching movies I've rented though, sure. I quit watching Eight Legged Freaks within like the first 10 minutes. Same thing with Road Trip!

    I don't go to the theater. You're just bein' a part of the problem handin' your money right over to THE MAN. I get all my movies off bootleg.

    I have never walked out on a movie. Even if it's bad, I like to see it to the end, just because. I fell asleep during Pokemon 2000 though.

    Blasphemy !!!!!!!
    Chuck Noblet: Can anyone tell me the tragic irony of the Trojan War? Tina? Tina: Um, that horses are friendly creatures yet a hollow, wooden one was used to destroy Troy? Chuck Noblet: Wrong and no. Anyone else? Chip? Chip: That the mighty warrior Achilles was killed by a small cut to his ankle. Chuck Noblet: Chip is wronger. OK, here it is. The tragic irony of the Trojan War is that though it was fought over Helen, who was young and beautiful, by the time they rescued her ten years later, she was old and ugly. Tina: But wasn't recovering the king's wife reward enough for the Greeks? Chuck Noblet: Tina, an ugly woman is never a reward.
