3 movies I cannot believe were mentioned...

The Royal Tenenbaums
O Brother Where Art Thou?
The Devils Rejects

The only movie I ever walked out on was A Beautiful Mind. I was like 13 or something and it went right over my head. Ironically it's one of my favorite movies now.

Two movies that almost got me:

The Notebook
Dude, Where's My Car

The only one I actually walked out on:
Torque.... I went to see it to laugh at it, and it was beyond comically bad

Hahaha, I OWN Torque, because it is EXACTLY my kind of hilariously terrible.  Didn't see it it the theater though.

I walked out on The Thin Red Line (WWII movie with Sean Penn).

The most boring movie ever.  I just kept waiting for it to get interesting, and it just kept sucking and sucking and sucking.

I deserve a medal for sticking it out as long as I did.

I think the scene that summed up the movie for me was when Woody Harrelson's character pulled out the pin in the grenade and it blew up in his butt. That's how I felt after sitting through 2 and half hours of complete Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline.baggery. Luckily, I only spent $3 on the rental.

None. But I stopped watching 300 after like 20 minutes and deleted the downloaded video. Just horrible.

I don't know what it was about it, there were like 1,000 movies out just like it that I found hilariously funny, Torque just angered me.

I'm surprised no one mentioned
'Irreversible'? Not because it
is a bad movie but because some
of the scenes are downright ugly.
Really, really ugly. Check it out.

I absolutely loved Thin Red Line.  But I do know a lot of people that had the same opinion that you did.  It's def. an acquired taste.

I walked out of this horrible racing movie called Red Line. The most atrocious movie made. The other movie I walked out of was the first Shrek movie. I made it 20 minutes in before my ears began to bleed.
Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity...

Me and my buddy love that movie as well, I say me and him because there are very few of us. It's a little hippie-ish and idealistic but a great, screenplay is phenomenal, great performances as well. It's more of a movie guru's movie than a movie for entertainment though.

A friend of mine describes Thin Red Line in a great way.  At almost any time you can press pause and the shot will look so good you could hang it on your wall.  It's beautifully shot.

And that scene where Elias Koteas'(spelling) character talks to his troops for the last time absolutely kills me.

  • Yup

That's ok...I walked out of some stupid maestro themed movie too  >:(

The Devils Reject is by no means a "good" movie, I just enjoyed some of the characters.  Captain Spaulding especially.
Yup

Haha, that tickled me. TP.

I might watch it again to see if it really was that bad.
