i walked out on 2 movies :

The Departed
Hollywood Homicide
The Gangs Of New York(i do like Daniel Day-Lewis as an actor, just not in that film.didn't walk out on this one.)

After bassdame and I made a music video with Robin Power, we went to see the premier of "Graffiti Bridge." Someone we know - a big Prince fan - walked out of the theater looking very disappointed and embarassed. We decided to proceed with our project with Robin for the adventure if not anything else.

I've never had the privilege of walking out on a movie, but "The Sheltering Sky" nearly made my head fall off of my own neck from tying to stay awake through it.

...and this from a woman who spent her younger years loving John Malkovich to no end

The Bob Costas scene.

I think that was Baby Boy. With Tyrese? The scene where she's pummeling him and he just swings back and hits her? I've seen that movie. Believe me, I'm not one for a man hitting a woman, but in that scene, she was repeatedly hitting him. I know it's only a movie, but no one should put their hands on another person without suffering the consequences.

I'd walk out of Deuce Bigelow, European Gigolo even on a plane.

I did see people walking out of Grindhouse early. Wanted to fucking kill them.

When I was way younger I walked out of:

Give My Regards to Broadstreet

and another time:

Clan of the Cave Bear

The idea, folks, is not to walk out of classics. You walk out of bad movies or racist or sexist filth, like Romper Stomper or Fatal Attraction. I like the Forest Gump one. The single most evil American film ever.

how's that about Gump? Wait, didn't Romper Stomper show a negative light?

Walked out of Alone in the Dark. Tara Reid should be shot for lying and Christian Slater should have been shot for starring. It's a shame when the game is better than the movie.

I didn't walk out, but watched several folks walk out holding their stomachs when Evil Dead first came out. My male friend left. I was laughing.

Edited to add Borat. I tried...I really tried...was.not.funny.to.me.

nope. i was always finish watching a movie no matter how bad it is. but i have come close to leaving a movie.

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor

The game's always better than the movie. Ex: House of the Dead 1 & 2 and Doom. Those were beyond terrible....right up there with Alone in the Dark. Funny, the same director for Alone in the Dark is the same one who directed House of the Dead. Yeah, video game movies are destined to suck.

I wanted to leave the theatre of Minority Report - but that was during 1 of the P celebrations and since he paid for all of us - I stayed. He even commented on how bad it was the next nite at the concert.

pray said:

He said it was strange or something to that effect.... I don't think he thought it was bad at all.

Nah, but I fell asleep on 'Constantine' and I most definitely should have walked out on that wack ass 'Wicker Man'.

I should've walked out of that one, I had a headache afterwards.

I walked out of The Phantom. Stuuuupid!

Fell asleep :

The Golden Compass
Mr Magoo
John Tucker Must Die
Date Movie
Ocean's 11
Ed Wood

The crappy movies I've been dragged to!

Ed Wood was rented at a sleepover and omg that bullshizz went for years!

Grand Canyon
Shanghai Noon
Jason X

Crossover (I was forced to watch)

Snakes on a Plane

The Crow: Wicked Prayer
Edward Furlong and once again another Tara Reid masterpiece!

The Break-Up (God, why didn't they just LEAVE???)

I walked out on Batman and Robin.

Well...yea...but only because I had a sudden urge to get buck nekked and I didn't want him to get popcorn on the knees of his pants..... I dont remember the movie tho....

noimageatall said:

I loved that movie.

Seriously....I couldn't watch SAW. That is so friggin twisted

dreamfactory313 said:

Well, since I have no patience with bad relationships anymore, and I would have BEEN gone!.... I couldn't watch it. What a waste of their time.

Does this count? I rented The Ruins (Ooooh--yippie--the "unrated" version) the other day, and it was so bad I took it back on the early morning of Day 2 of a 7 day rental!

She was doing those stupid little girly swats, and gets a full blown hit back in return, then dude forcibly picks her up and carries her to the room and undresses her against her will. Not even on the same level.

Anyways, it wasn't just that scene. The whole movie treated women like shit. It gave a very lighthanded approach to the whole matter, and I didn't care for it. Why should I, a female, sit through 2 hours of watching men treat women like dirt, and be expected to come away from the experience enjoying it?

The movie was garbage.

meow85 said:

Baby Boy made me uncomfortable as well. Although I quite liked the mother in the movie and her kick ass garden, everyone else rubbed me the wrong way.

i especially didn't like how the girl went back to Tyrese's character and then in the end they show that she's pregnant and engaged to that jerk. As if that's really going to change anything.

I found that movie to be downright depressing.

Snap said:

Boyz in the Hood is a great movie. Not exactly an uplifing holiday classic by any means but still a very good and, imo, important movie.

i can see where someone may not like it or may be disturbed by it, though.

It's rare for me not to find something good in a movie I've sat all the way through. But there's just nothing worthwhile in this. The whole thing made me uncomfortable, and not in that intriguing, thought-provoking way some movies have.

JustErin said:

Both those movies were excellent. Why would someone walk out on them?

I've never walked out on any movie, but two that I watched on cable and thought were the biggest wastes of time ever were The Doom Generation and Nowhere. Gregg Araki fooled me twice. Shame on me.
