Thumbs down Movies that you almost or walked out on. It was that bad.

I think I started a thread about worst movies you've seen, but have there ever been any movies that were so bad that you walked out, or just stopped watching.

1. District 9 -Walked out
2. J Edgar -Walked out
3. Super 8 -Fell asleep


Thinking....

Walked out on Moulin Rouge. Fell asleep during the second Matrix movie. Don't think there've been any others - I've pretty much stopped seeing movies in theatres.

Almost walked out of Pearl Harbor. Ugh, that was a TERRIBLE movie. Note to Ben Affleck: Either stick to your so-called southern accent for the role or don't do it at all. Drove me crazy to hear him slip in and out of that horrible excuse for an accent!

Also thought about walking out of The Last Dragon - HORRIBLE.

Fell asleep during Contact and Sahara (twice). BORING.

My ex had really crappy taste in movies in case you couldn't tell...

This would be me. That movie really sucked and I hate paying theater prices anyway.

The Time Traveler's Wife. I kept waiting for it to get better and it never happened. Plus I had dragged my boyfriend with me and didn't want to prove him right when he said the movie looked terrible!

That ice skating movie with Will Ferrell and the Napolean Dynamita guy. Can't even remember the name, it was so bad. I fell asleep in the theatre about half an hour into it.

^Blades of Glory!

We don't get to the movies often. But the last one we walked out on was Gods and Generals. It had an intermission, so we went home.

I also fell asleep during Contact, but at least I didn't snore like the man sitting across the aisle.

I watched "From Hell" a couple of days ago. It was about Jack the Ripper, starring Johnny Depp. I missed some of it because I started falling asleep. It was really boring.
