Films

I’ve only ever left a cinema twice in my life. Once was that film, the other was Independence Day

^ yeah I walked out of Independence Day too

Wonder how long it will be before the Marvel characters that Fox own (Deadpool and various X-Men characters, Fantastic Four, Silver Surfer, etc) make their way back into the Marvel movies. Will Galactus turn out to be the big baddie all along?

Marvel characters that Fox own

Not any more. 20th Century fox now owned by Disney (subject to US Government approval of the takeover)

That was the point of @aggi 's post...

Fox will be owned by Disney, Disney owns Marvel; Fox + Disney + Marvel = Deadpool & X-Men in Marvel films.

I did the DVD version of walking out of The Phantom Menace. The Last Samurai is the only one I’ve walked out of at the cinema.

I walked out of that very early DreamWorks cartoon about the Egyptian prince. Can't remember what it was called.

I got thrown out of Young Guns II for throwing popcorn. What a little shit I was.

pew pew lasers

lol.. this has made my day.

Oh, it was called "Prince of Egypt". Ha.

Better than gawping at the mobile, the more up-to-date activity; at least you were interacting with people. Sort of.

Done that last year and the sound quality was horrible. Hope it's better this time around!

no. The sound qaulity was pretty much the worst Ive heard of in cinema. we are very much pampered with modern tech and recording quality in that regards these days.

it was still awesome. much hollering and whooping at all the best bits.

.

I've never walked out, maybe I'm just too tight: I paid for this ticket, I'll sit it out, dammit!

I came very close with 21 grams though, holy shit, that dragged on and on and on and oooooooooooooooooooooooohn and...

oh no, I've walked out of tons of films

the ones I can remember:

Godzilla
Lost in Space
Independence Day

Recently:

The Eagle (some Roman Empire crap with Channing Generic or someone - the Scottish Highlands villagers living in squalor yet still able to dye all their garments a lovely deep blue, all sounding like Billy Connolly, that did for me......)

The Nice Guys
Star Trek: The Last load of Bollocks (lens flare II this time its personal)
Cloud Atlas

In fairness The Eagle was just a time killer and I fully expected to hate it

I only remember flouncing out of 2 films
Any Given Sunday - American handegg nonsense
Pearl Harbour - because I had a train to catch and it was 6 hours long

Cloud Atlas, hahahaha! That was a cracker.

That was a cracker.

pfff.

The Last Jedi - can we spoil this terrible movie yet?

The best bit was the wee bird thingy imitating Chewbacca........

There is a whole thread for it here: https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/279178/?offset=150#comment14013551

gotcha! :D

Are you lot serious? I thought Independence Day, Cloud Atlas and Any Given Sunday were all great movies. Although my wife crying at the end of Independence Day because they’d saved us was perhaps a bit OTT (apologies for spoiler)

The Disaster Artist left me in a bit of an emotional state. It seems to pull you around effectively; make you feel good, make you feel bad for feeling good, then, well, confused but satisfied. James Franco is superb.
Near empty lunchtime showing with a stupendous drunk who could barely walk before drinking and sang along with the end credits.

i've not seen it but from the looks of it, it does seem like rich, talented people using their position to laugh at TW, not necessarily with him. not sure i'm ok with that.
