    I wish I would have walked out of Lost In Translation, but I had to see what all the fuss was about.

    I thought that was pretty much the worst movie I've ever seen.

    I don't ever remember walking out of a movie, but I have loudly made fun of movies several times.

    Whalerider was probably one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I made jokes during the whole thing. Leaving the theater, I remember telling my friends "some cultures deserve to die."

    Oh, now I remember a movie rental that I shut off. Magnolia. That must have been the slowest movie ever. So I never have seen the much hyped ending.

    And don't get me started on Barton Fink. Let's just say that I much prefer the Coen Bros' light-comedic movies (Lebowski, Oh brother, Raising Arizona etc) over their noir tragedies (Man who wasn't there, Barton Fink etc). And if they're hellbent on doing a tragedy, they should make everybody talk with funny accents. That seems to work out better for them.

    The only flick I ever walked out on was some movie starring Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz that came out in 2000 or 2001 (Woman on Top?)

    I saw it in a theater in India.

    It sucked

    I passed out during that movie.

    My ex gf and I came back from seeing a Ralph Stanley show, we were pretty lit, and she wanted me to see the VHS tape of Monster's Ball (which she had watched the night before). I remember a little making out, but none of the actual movie.

    Only one: Toys with Robin Williams. That was the biggest turd ever and I freakin' saw Gymkata at the theatre!!! At least Gymkata was entertaining in a bizarre and completely stupid way. Toys was a royal piece of crap.

    you walked out of Donnie Darko? How far did you get?
    you weren't even intrigued by the spiritual aspect?

    I'm not polarized about RT....its just that I love quirky and weird comedies, and RT had been SO HYPED, so when I went to see it I was disappointed.

    I didnt walk out, but I expected much more from it. However, the wood finger still makes me laugh.

    The only movie I ever walked out of was some flick with Rob Lowe called "Illegally Yours."

    Should have walked out of:

    Crumb
    Street Fighter (I only stayed bc it was whathisnames last movie)
    Van Helsing
    that movie where Dan Akroyd and Demi Moore get kidnapped by an evil John Candy

    Are you talking about "Nothing But Trouble?" Chevy Chase was the one who got kidnapped with Demi. Akroyd played this disgusting vulture esque judge.

    I have never walked out of a movie but there are some movies that I rented and after a few minutes of watching I had to turn off the piece of s#*t and returned it.

    Master of Disguise - Dana Carvey
    Mafia - Jay Mohr, Christina Applegate
    Pluto Nash - (Mr. Overactor... Eddie Murphy)

    Money would have been better spent on the purchase and ingestion of rat poison.

    I walked out of Speed in the dollar theater. I think that movie heralded a new era of crap.

    :p for a second I thought you walked out of DUmb and Dumber and was thinking WTF

    Never walk out of a movie, becuase I don't go to theater much, if I do go, it must be for a movie I really anticipate, so even if it sucks, I would stay to finish it.
