Terpentintollwut Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 I walked out of Burton's Alice. I did so only to tell some employee to turn up the volume cause it was way quiet, but I didn't exactly hurry to get back inside if you know what I mean ... that movie was such a waste of potential ... The volume thing happens almost every time in German cinemas, for Germany is the only country where it's become some kind of standard that commercials are always much louder than the film (3 dB, no kidding!), both on tv and in the theater, and they always adjust the volume down for the ads, and then they're too lazy to turn it back up, so I have to walk out and get someone cause nobody else ever does Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/64311-walking-out-of-movies/page/5/#findComment-1532908 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hahathhat Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 i still have to drive to the nearest fucking theater. drive there, wait for it to start, watch a bit, decide it's crap, drive home for a wasted afternoon??? fuck that, i'll see it through, waste another hour beyond the three i'd already lose.... and then just bash the shit out of it in conversations and on the internet. maybe spill my soda of the theater floor in lieu of a review Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/64311-walking-out-of-movies/page/5/#findComment-1614923 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghOsty Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 (edited) I walked out of Spider Man 3 and I do not regret it to this day... Casting Topher Grace as Venom was a big enough slap in the face to someone who loved the original black costume/ origin of venom story-arch and knew how badass Venom was supposed to be.. but when Peter Parker becoming corrupted by the suit and copping a bad attitude consisted of watching Toby McGuire sport an emo haircut and leather jacket and walk down the street making fruity pointing gestures while a James Brown Track played in the background was just too much... Me and my friend both agreed the movie was total shit, and walked out at that scene and instead rolled around town blasting music and smoking a blunt. I still have not ever watched the movie in entirety and do not plan to.

Guest hahathhat Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 i wouldn't have gone to see it in the first place. maybe that's why people walk out of movies -- despite all the steps it takes to land your ass in a theater seat, some people still go see movies that will obviously be crap.

TechDiff Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) walked out of a couple films, Got dragged along my some friends to see a Harry Potter film, figured I'd give it a chance but lasted about 30 mins before I was just fed up and walked out. walked out on Transformers 2 as well. I'd only gone because I wanted to see big bots and hear cool sounds, but the utter shiteness of the film hampered my enjoyment of even that. went to see Tron the day it came out, I'd purposefully avoided any trailers, reviews, spoilers etc. Didn't want to go in with any preconceptions. I was ready to walk out after the first 45 mins, but waited it out in the end. Kinda glad I did. Not because the film redeemed itself (was complete pants, the end is laughable). Before the film started, the audience was all excited and full of anticipation, when the film finished and the credits rolled, the moment when people cheer and clap, nothing... Silence. As we filtered out of the cinema, quiet murmuring, most people walking with their shoulders slupmed and heads hanging, I think I heard some crying, felt like a funeral procession. Pretty hilarious experience. Last film I saw at the cinema was Akira, one of the cinemas in town was doing a Japanese season. Seen it pleanty of times before, but at the cinema it was just incredible! Best cinema experience I've ever had. Same cinema also had a late night showing of Blade Runner a couple years back. That was also a brilliant experience. I'm not much of a cinema goer tbh, it's too expensive, and almost feels like a gamble. Got a projector at home, prefer to watch films on that, doesn't cost and doesn't feel like a waste of money to turn it off half way through. If the Duke of York (good little Brighton cinema) is showing something I like, I'll go to that to experience it on the big screen. with films you know you love it's worth the cost.
