NO..because I have to watch the credits...seems to me like everyone else leaves without watching the credits though.

Re: HAVE YOU EVER WALKED OUT OF A MOVIE?
I quit going to the movies when they started putting ads in.

I can watch DVD's on the flat screen without the cost, lines or hassles.

The only reason I can possibly see for going to a movie theater any more is if you have a date or something.

Then you don't have to walk out, just change the channel.

Plenty of times. Never asked for a refund, except once when the film actually tore up in the first few minutes. Ticket takers were just handing out dollars.

Yes - Natural Born Killers - too violent - and got a refund.

Also - Texas Chainsaw III. No refund. Wife couldn't take it.

I just watched "Burn After Reading" and, had I paid to see it, I most definitely would have walked out on it.

Another idiotic Coen bros movie. More retarded than Fargo.

Re: HAVE YOU EVER WALKED OUT OF A MOVIE?
three kings, with marky mark, about the first gulf war.

I was with my girlfriend, and there was a scene of a hysterical Iraqi woman being shot point blank by a soldier real nonchallant. it was without warning and very graphic. I didn't ask for money back. that was ten years ago. I don't generally go to see movies, these days. I only went then, for something to do
if so, why? (OP)

Re: HAVE YOU EVER WALKED OUT OF A MOVIE?
*laughs*

yeah i am a stay thru to the final credits filmgoer

and i have never walked out of a movie ~on my own~
but as a young teen, my mother hauled me out of tron in disgust. maybe the plot was too complicated for her? ;>)

namely as i can't stand to throw good money away

which makes me very choosy bout my films in the first place

i do recall *lots* of disgruntled patrons as we left blair witch, many mumbling about wanting refunds

my mother was militant about walking out if things displeased her.

she also marched out of young frankenstein and terms of endearment. the abortion subject pissed her off i guess.

to this day i have no idea what got her so upset at y.f.

True that.

Movies SUCK.

I had 50 free dollars to spend at Best Buy...

Could not find one damn good movie to buy...

Settled for Dave Matthews live and a cool coffee table book about the life of BOB MARLEY.

Re: HAVE YOU EVER WALKED OUT OF A MOVIE?
yes. ALL THE TIME!

a family relation of mine books all the movies for a national chain of cinemas here in the UK so I see all my movies for free. some are just too awful to sit through.

step brothers
semi pro
stealth
swat
inspector gadget
cloverfield
the proposition
the bank job
spiderman 2
rancid aluminum
pirates 3

are a few recent ones I remember walking out of.

we even walked out of a couple of premieres in London:

kill bill 2
meet dave

I normally give them a fair shot before leaving and claiming my free beer or cocktail with my coupon.

life is too short to waste on bad cinema even if it is free.

Re: HAVE YOU EVER WALKED OUT OF A MOVIE?
damn few...

i have gone to see three movies this year so far

1. body of war
2. battle in seattle
3. hunger ( film fest )

hardly what i call mainstream there

i don't 'do' most commercial films, prefer docs.

never assume

i just saw flags of our fathers on dvd at my library for free

that one, i regret not paying to see at the box office

the filmmaker deserved the money for that one

i only saw pirates and elizabeth as 'first runs' last yr.

i own '4' dvd's worthy to sit on my shelf

so no if i am going to a movie, i 'want' to be there.
