Only time I have ever done this. It just seemed boring and pointless about 10 minutes in.






Dude, I hated that movie, but c'mon...ten minutes in? You paid for a ticket, got yer popcorn, and said frick it? I don't get why you'd do that that fast.

That's sunk cost, and I had better things to do with my time. Like I said, I have only done that one time. I can't remember exactly what was going through my head.

I'm sure you had your reasons, but just me being me, even if ever walked out of a movie, I think I'd have to give it at least 25 mins.

I always finish the movie. I'm too cheap to waste $10 like that

I know some people who hate that movie. I think those people's taste is up their arse.

BTW, The Talented Mr. Ripley was a good movie.

I've never left a theater early before. I usually mainly see movies that I'm pretty sure I will like. There are some exceptions, but I haven't walked out though. I've fallen asleep several times from being tired. But there was one movie that I intentionally fell alseep on. Freddie Got Fingered. Awful, awful movie that my friend wanted to see. It was so bad that I got as comfortable as I could in that seat and just knocked out for a while.

Only a couple of times....

Dinner for Shmucks
Robin Hood

Very close to walking out of "The Happening", but there wasn't much else to do in Augusta, GA at the time.

Almost walked out of The Village. Right at the part when you realize M. Night Shlamadingdong just kicked you in the balls and spit in your face.
