So I threw the tapes away. Foulest movies I've ever seen.  |  IP: Logged Sean M.

Same goes with Emperor's New Groove. *shrugs* I should have walked out of Species II but like others who had already posted I had people with me.  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony.

Technically, it wasnt a real walkout. I was there to see another movie, but it was sold out, so I had to wait 40 minutes for the next show. I decided to watch Grinch which i had no intention of watching normally until the next show started. After 15 min I decided to walk to the lobby and just wait for my movie. It was weird too because when i walked out the theater was totally empty. Why not just turn off the projector bulb and sound when running the movie to an empty house. Another movie I nearly walked out of was the Shadow. Fortunately i was tired and just fell asleep.  |  IP: Logged Ron Lacheur Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 650 From: British Columbia, Canada Registered: Feb 2002 posted 11-24-2003 06:20 PM                     Never have walked out on a film before but Daredevil was pushing the envelope.  |  IP: Logged Martin Brooks Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 900 From: Forest Hills, NY, USA Registered: May 2002 posted 11-24-2003 07:46 PM                        Many years ago, I was dragged to Caligula and walked out once I discovered how cruel and boring the story was. I also walked out of The Cook, The Thief, The Wife, The Lover (or whatever it was called) during the scene where the stars were having sex in a truck filled with rotten meat. (Today this would be an episode of Fear Factor or something similar on TV). This film did get great reviews though.  |  IP: Logged
