Yup, Cool World, wasn't be my choice though. The people I went to see it with (and my ride) hated it and walked out. I didnt want to walk home.

Exit to Eden, thought it would be funny, one of the wost movies ever.

Now I would be hard pressed to leave a movie, just for the sheer cost of getting in. Think the last time me and the wife went I was out $45 before I even got to my seat. any more I'll wait till it hits DVD unless it looks like its going to be a realy kick a$$ flick.

I've really wanted to walk out on several movies, but I always tell myself, "it'll get better...it has to..."

It happened to me once or twice that I left the teathre before the movie ended, but it's pretty rare.
Usually, I wait till the end, even if the movie is really bad (hey, I paid for it. :) ).
But when the movie really SUCKS, it happened to me several times that I ALMOST left the movie. The last few times were on: "Flight Plan" and "The Shipping News". :|

Came close a few times because of who I was with................... :shock: Not because the movie was bad or that sort of thing, but because we were more interested in doing other things that can't, or shouldn't be done in a movie theater................. :shock:

Walked out of Charlies Angels Full Throttle, that movie was such crap, and a total waste of cool effects and John Woo.

Have not gone to a movie in YEARS - we save the money and just buy the dvd, it is about the same price.

I did want to walk out of one back when I was younger, but then they kicked the idiots out, so it was ok then :)

I liked that one by the way..

i've done that many times... but i got to a point where it was like "ok... whatever... if it hasn't gotten good yet, it's definitely not worth watching the rest to find out" and i left.

movies i walked out on:
'in and out' (totally not what i thought it was going to be about... left when i realized it)
'message in a bottle' (zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz)

Yeah, that would be Rowan Atkinson. I especially liked his work in the movie "Rat Race". Great Flick. I also seen a Doctor Who spoof with him in it that was pretty funny.

Where's the "No, I've never wanted to." option? :P

I only see movies if I know for sure I'll like it (usually anything by Pierce Brosnan, Robin Williams, Denzel Washington, etc), otherwise I just wait for the DVD and rent the new release for $1 on a weekday from Albertsons. :mrgreen:

why walk out when you can make fun of it with your friends, and have the people around you laughing more at your comments than the movie.

Oh and I should have walked out of Pirates of the Carribean, the second Tomb Raider, and Kingdom of Heaven
