Ever walked out of a film at the cinema or slept through it?

My DC and I walked out of 'return of the Jedi' after about an hour. It was vvv boring!

Last weekend I fell asleep in the middle of 'dogman' because I wasn't feeling v well and the cinema seats reclined so i was cosy and had my coat over me like a nice blanket! Felt so good to lie down in the dark and know no-one would disturb me for an hour or two :)

Fell asleep during The Matrix and The Invisible Man with Kevin Bacon. Took me about six goes each to watch them on DVD all the way through, and actually quite enjoyed them but for the life of me just couldn't stay awake....

I did sleep all the way through a King Crimson concert a few years back. It had been a long day and we'd got complimentary tickets, and I had no idea of the band. Later the music was described to me by a friend as being designed for mathematicians, which may explain it because I'm not that way inclined at all. Given there were three drum kits and loads of percussion I still think it was a noteworthy achievement 😁

Evita with Madonna - I was 16 at the time and thought it was a load of shit!

I slept through Space Jam and most of the Lord of the Rings. Also the yearly star wars update films. So much so, I now volunteer to dog sit adult DD's lurcher so I can escape the yearly snooze.

DH feels your pain. He had to project it when he was at university in the 70s. His most hated, boring film.

The Revenant. Stupid and gross.
Bullet train. Load of rubbish.
Some I've went with DH that I didn't fancy I had a nice snooze in the recliners.

Yes!! I tried to watch a film I really wanted to see, Dev Patel in David Copperfield, but it was filmed with some kind of horrible swooping camera movement. I felt so sick but I persevered as I’d really wanted to see it but ended up with my eyes shut through most of it 🤢

Never walked out but came very close in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. The plot went absolutely nowhere in a way I'd never experienced before. And at almost 3 hours it just felt like a pisstake. That genre does nothing for me.

Slept through a fair few. Not a judgement on their quality - it's just being in a cosy seat in a warm, dark room. Includes Les Mis at the West End!

Tbh I can't remember the last time I went to the cinema and didn't fall asleep, I now take a blanket with me so I'm extra warm and cozy for my inevitable nap after my popcorn 😀

Both ! Walked out of a film that must’ve been very boring, can’t even remember what it was ! I fall asleep constantly in the cinema, famously during one of the Harry Potters , we’d got seats right at the front and it was making me feel a bit sea sick so I had to shut my eyes ! And fell asleep..

It’s never occurred to me to walk out. I guess I don’t value my time as much as others or I hope the film will improve 😂. Never fallen asleep either that I recall.

Walked out of The Matrix. It was rubbish, them year later friend's husband says it was his favourite film. I silently hedged him massively for that and still do

I actually really like her and the rest of the event was good fun.

I was just really tired.

I have slept through Death in Venice at least three times, probably four.

Don’t blame you. Once saw her at a gala theatre show where she set up her own children to be supposedly random audience ‘participants’, at the expense of ignoring other children putting their hands up. Put me right off her, she’s a phony.

Walked out of Avatar after 20 minutes, what a load of dross. Generally fall asleep at the cinema, find 2 hours + of any film a bit of a chore to sit through. At least you can sleep at the cinema, which you can’t do at the theatre. Have walked out of the theatre several times, most notably Wicked. Biggest crock of shit I have ever endured, I was praying for the interval so I could scarper.

I dozed off at a Sandi Toksvig talk. I was in the front row.

Dh and I walked out of Miami Vice, we thought it was crap.

Dh fell asleep during Quantam of Solace, I had to keep nudging him awake as he was actually snoring! I enjoyed the film.

I fell asleep just the other weekend when I took my older two dc to see Dog Man. I’ve never fallen asleep in the cinema before but I am absolutely exhausted at the moment.

Yes, walked out of Spectre, not because the film was bad but because it was really full in the screening and a guy sat next to me with popcorn, nachos and a massive hotdog with onions and chomped and slurped constantly. There were no spare seats that I could move to so after about 20 mins, the noise and the smell made me get up and walk out.

I hate people who eat in the cinema.

I fell asleep during Barbie.

I walked out of Nosferatu the Vampire many moons ago, dreadful film.

I slept through Pokemon the Movie with my children, it was dreadful and I had hardly any sleep due to my youngest being a misery in his own bed.

Reservoir dogs and boogie nights. Went and sat in the foyer til they had nearly finished.

oh and tried to have a nap during wicked, the theatre production as that was dire .

Yep The Mandchurian Candidate and an arty one called something something Green Papaya - i remember at least a good minute when ypu were watching the water coming out of the tap. It was beautiful photography yes but not for 2hrs!!!!

I walked out of The Rocky Horror Show. I was furious at being pelted with rice and water pistols, I had no idea of what to expect and a hater of musicals I could not bear it.

Also:
All the Pokémon films
All the Lord of the Rings films
All kids films made since about 2000.

I also fell asleep during the LIVE performance of Operation Mincemeat, it was a gift from my son for my 62nd birthday. We'd had a cocktail, dinner with wine, wine at the theatre and I fell asleep despite my son digging me in the ribs and it being very loud!

I also once walked out of some long, crashingly dull theatre play, I think it was having its preview. I thought it had finally finished, but the two ladies sat next to me informed me that it was the interval. Bollocks to that - I made haste my escape. Life's too short.

I walked out of The Wedding Crashers.

And I fell asleep during Being John Malkovich.

In my defense it was a late showing on a Saturday night and I was wasted.😆
