If so, what movie and why?

No I tend to stay 'till the bitter end, even when I hate it. And tbh sometimes I don't realise just how much I disliked it until I finish it an think about it.

I for the life of me can't remember what movie it is. I think it was a vampire movie, but I can't find it doing a casual search for terrible teen vampire movies, so. Whatever. Either way, terrible terrible teen supernatural movie. One of my friends had dragged me along with her to see it because she'd really liked the book, but ended up dragging me back out about half an hour in and storming up to management to get her money back.

Got it, too. Apparently management agreed it was just that bad.

Are you sure it was vampires? Blood and Chocolate was an obscure/ terrible teen werewolf movie.

I'm not sure it was vampires, but it definitely wasn't Blood & Chocolate. It was like... at some kind of academy or something?

Actually, that might be it. It might be Vampire Academy.

Was it Vampire Academy? Or The Moth Diaries?

Michael Clayton. I was bored and didn’t get what was going on. My father said it got super good after I left.

I have walked out of two movies. The first was my second showing of The Dark Knight Rises.

The second was Snow White and the Huntsman. What an awful movie.

Ugh, The Dark Knight Rises. I guess I should have walked out of that one, instead I stayed and commented or laughed at the movie. Which totally wasn't fair to the other people there. I mean, I wasn't super loud, and nobody actually complained - maybe they hated it just as much as I did, I don't know.

No, and barring emergencies and things not related to the movie, I can't imagine doing so unless it's really offensive or making me ill. I paid for thge ticket and set aside the time, so I might as well watch even if it's boring or bad. I'm pretty picky about which movies I go to, anyway.

Eh, if a movie sucks I don't see the point of wasting more time watching it.

yep, Titanic and Blade Runner. Hated them.

I walked out of Blade Runner. Well, sort of, I was at the drive-in.

I never even started watching Titanic and I don't plan to.

The Shape of Water. I thought it was a really well made movie, but it was really getting under my skin so I left before I burst into tears.

Do you mind sharing what about it bothered you?

The violence, part of it. And we got to the government man's home life and his plasticky big-boobed wife and the awful sex and it felt like every tic and emotional beat was designed to put my back up. And more violence with the fishman. Del Toro is really good at making things visceral, yeah?

So I wandered out for a bit and then my friend found me and said the worst stuff was over but when I walked back in the government man was trying to rape the gill lady and...

Just too many squicks and triggers for me.

I might try it again when it comes out on dvd - I genuinely think it's a well-made movie - when I can control the volume and stop for a bit when things get bad.

Punch Drunk Love, because I thought it was fucking awful. My friend and I walked out after twenty minutes. Later someone told me it gets much better after the first twenty minutes but I don't care.

No, but I remember the first time I saw someone do that. It was the Avengers - not those Avengers, the other Avengers, I think it had Uma Thurman it it - and I was stunned because I hadn't realize it was an option. It's harder to tell when people are walking out of a movie these days. The side exits in stadium seating theaters make it easier to slip out unnoticed, whereas there was no hiding walking up the center aisle.

I go to see very few movies nowadays, and it takes a lot to get me interested enough to go to the theater, so it's not very likely I will be at a movie I don't want to finish.

Oh, the Fiennes/Thurman Avengers is a bit dire.

The Mummy.

I snuck into Wonder Woman next door and wasn't blown away either, but it was certainly better.

Joke's on me, the Mummy screen broke and my dad ended up getting a pass, and I could have gotten one if I had just suffered another ten mintues :(

I'm reading you saying you walked out on The Mummy and I'm thinking "Them's fightin' words!" but thin I realized you probably meant the more recent one with Tom Cruise, which I keep forgetting was a thing.

Not that I can recall, but I tend not to go into movies cold.

The only movie I've ever walked out on was Green Hornet. I hadn't really wanted to see it to begin with 'cause I have an irrational hatred for Seth Rogan, but it was my mom's birthday and he was her favorite superhero growing up, so I went along, but I only lasted 20 minutes before I couldn't take it anymore. Poor mom didn't last much longer, 'cause damn did that movie suck.

hating Seth Rogan is not irrational.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
I was feeling uncomfortable with it as thing stood, but when the girl started to swell to a blueberry my little brother (he'd have been about 7 or 8) had a bit of a freakout and asked me to take him home - so I did. Outwardly being a good big sister and inwardly STUPIDLY RELIEVED that I had an excuse to nope out of there.
