I walked out of The Core.

I mean, I could handle "unobtanium", because gently caress it, it's a movie, right? But then they go outside and walk around in that diode-thing (or we), and there's a small hole and the magma start pouring in, instead of immediately imploding the whole thing and ... uggggh.

I saw it recently on Netflix, and I was right to walk out.

Watchmen because I was there with a buddy and his mom and she didn't like the giant blue donger. Also You Don't Mess with the Zohan because Adam Sandler is an unfunny piece of loving poo poo.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas as a young adult. It was just utter mindless shite and I couldn't get into it at all.

Fantasia as a kid because it was just disney characters set to lovely classical music and I told my mum it was boring over and over until she gave up and we left.

You know how sometimes you watch something so awful that even if you were watching it alone in a cabin in Siberia, you'd have to shut it off? I walked out of the first Transformers movie when the racist robots showed up.
I just checked to make sure my memory on that was right, and it looks like the racist robots everyone actually talks about are from the second film, which tells me it somehow got worse. :psyduck:

Nah, that was just the straw that broke the camel's back. I had already dealt with Golly Gee Nice Guy hero, keeping giant robots from my parents and a camera whose sole purpose was carefully sliding up Megan Fox's butthole.

Fair enough then....I think the entire movie was intended to be a teenage boys wet-dream, so I guess it worked on that front. Megan does have a nice butthole though.

Not a walk out but my dad rented Transformers 2 and I thought I'd check it out. I got as far as the scene where some bullshit turns appliances into tiny transformers and they start running around the kitchen and one of the tiny robots farts. I had to turn it off because I have never seen anything so loving stupid, and the kicker is I love farts jokes. I know it's a cliche to poo poo on Michael Bay, but seriously, gently caress you Michael Bay.


Also I saw 2012 in theaters and I wish I walked out of that one. That movie was so loving terrible it made me angry.

A movie I wish I had walked out on is Cosmopolis. Literally the entire rest of the audience (which to be fair was only 10 people) were gone by the time the last scene started.

After an overnight field trip in high school, a bunch of friends, boys and girls decided to meet up and watch a movie. Now this might have been an awesome time to get hype and then wild out, but we saw Dude, Where's My Car?

All 9 of us fell asleep.

When I was a child, I convinced my mother to take me to see The Nutty Professor. Within 10 minutes of the movie starting she forced me to leave the theater.

Took one of my first dates to The Mummy and found it to be real tedious poo poo so said I had to go to the loo, went and played one of the greatest games of Time Crisis 2. Came back in quite a way into the movie.

Said I was having gut issues. Don't worry guys two dates later the deal was sealed :clint:

Hook.

I didn't want to, but my annoying cousin was with me and wouldn't shut the gently caress up about leaving and going to the arcade next door and play video games into grandma came back to pick us up.

I was enjoying it but from the second the opening credits rolled he was saying "this is stupid let's go to Tokens and Tickets this is stupid".

I never did get to see the rest of it.

Other than that I've never walked out. I even sat through all of Coyote Ugly just because a friend of mine was an extra in it, and was going around telling everyone that he was an actor now, so I wanted to take a picture of the screen during his only scene so I could show everyone and shut him up.

Are we also tracking when we fall asleep at movies? If so I fell asleep during Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas and pretty much all of the Harry Potter films. I guess fantastical stuff makes me sleepy.

I made a series of bad investments. Tarantula farm. The bottom fell out of the market.

Worked at a theater for four years in high school and college. Saw a ton of free movies, took a lot of chances, saw everything through til the end except for Miami Vice and Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen. Just boring movies and I wasn't in the mood, even for free.

People usually did not often ask for refunds but were almost always reasonable when they did. As long as there was at least 45 mins left in the movie you could get a refund, we didn't mind.

Reasons people left (unless otherwise noted I am in concessions which is right by the doors to the theaters):

- A guy slams open the door of a showing of R.V. covered in white dust, sees me as the only person in the lobby and yells "a motherfucking ceiling tile just fell on my head" before storming out without getting a refund. I got written up because I was laughing as he stormed out

- LOTR Two Towers, someone said the theater smelled like poo poo. We refund them. Same thing with two more customers. Movie gets out, my buddy starts cleaning the theater, picks up a bag and says "wtf this is really heavy", looks inside of it and yells "poo poo! it's poo poo!" because someone liked Two Towers so much that they took a poo poo in a popcorn bag

- A patron leaves because Drunk Jeff was in the lobby being drunk. We usually kept him in a closet upstairs with a spare popcorn popper because we were so busy for Finding Nemo that we had to keep that poo poo running 24/7. But Drunk Jeff decided to go a little too hard at the mall restauraunt and started telling customers their kids were cute. Drunk Jeff disappeared without mention a few days later and we took turns running the closet popper.

- We had to use a leaf blower to clean out popular kid's movies, more than a couple times parents would ask for refunds because they couldn't believe we cleaned the theater by blowing all the garbage to the bottom and sweeping it up there. Kids movies are loving nightmares.
