I used to go to movies and I would walk out of one in the first 15 minutes when I recognized certain sequences that pretty much told me that the movie was crap.
“I used to go to movies and I would walk out of one in the first 15 minutes”
When we lived in SoCal, often in malls there would be Hollywood studio staff handing out free tickets to screenings of movies not released yet. You were supposed to stay after and discuss, fill out questionnaires, etc.
We went a few times. The minute demons or homosexuals (is that redundant?) appeared — usually about 15 minutes — we were out the door, even though we were supposed to stay to the end. A monitor at the door would stop us and we weren’t shy about telling them why were leaving.
In my days of yute I gave movies a chance and never walked out but at some point I no longer was tolerant anymore. My record was I think 1 minute or so before the credits even rolled. Since I no longer go to the local bijou even if it’s some masterpiece they don’t even get that minute anymore.
