  • Movies You Walked Out Of

    Saw both of these in the theater -- but didn't make it all the way through.

    Why would you walk out on ANOTHER STAKEOUT??

    Isn't that a Rosie O'Donnell film?

    Just kidding.

      The only film I have ever walked out of is The Cook, The Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover.

      I wasn't offended, but the visuals were more than I could handle.

        A little too fork-in-cheek?

            It was actually the spoon down the throat that did me in.

            I was in college; working at the local "art house" theater at the time. So many underage kids wanted to get in, thinking the NC-17 rating meant it was porn. The ones that did get in....boy were they surprised.

                I've never walked out on a movie. I paid for this ticket and by god, I'm gonna get my money's worth even if I have to be miserable doing it.

                  I know, I know. Great movie, but I was like 18 or 19, I didn't know what a good movie was. I love it now. Especially DDLewis.

                    I believe these were both in second-run theaters. And I was a teenager. But, yeah...can't really think of doing that today.

                      Nice ones. I told my parents I was seeing "She's Having a Baby" and went to see "Serpent and the Rainbow." Got grounded for two weeks. Always remember to throw away those ticket stubs.

                        THE SERPENT AND THE RAINBOW rocks, so I'm sure it was well worth the consequences.

                          You and me, Emily. I tell myself that even watching a crappy film teaches me something of value, but really, it's because I'm too tight to waste a ticket.

                          Having said that, my daughter and I walked out of the Nancy Drew remake a few years ago, only because she was freaking out and the sound was terrible. Crackly, and fading in and out... So we left.

                          I got my money back.

                            I've never left the theater either. But I rented Transporter 3 and shut it off. Shutting off a movie pre Netflix Instant days was a big deal for me.
                            Ring-a-ding-ding, baby.

                              If I remember correctly there was a shot in the film during a scene when a dog was chasing a cat and -- I swear to god -- it was a p.o.v. shot from the cat's butt. You could see the cat's tail at the top of the screen and the dog coming right at you.

                              I think I walked out shortly thereafter.
