I just scrolled through 200+ comments and did not see Cloverfield. I really can't say anything about the storyline itself as this was one I physically could not sit through. In addition to others who ended their suffering before us, I and 2 family members all experienced severe motion sickness within the first half hour and had to walk out. Didn't think it was worth throwing up over.

Saw Pulp Fiction in a theater off post near Fort Sill, people kept getting up and walking out esp. when Marvin got shot in the face. I think the theater was 2/3rds full at the start and there were maybe a dozen of us left at the end.
People in Oklahomey weren't ready for QT lol
Hedwig. I thought it was such a beautiful movie and about half the people in the theater left.
hedwig and the angry inch? im pretty sure that movie is very good
I left the theatre for House of the Dead, along with my friend, who demanded a refund.
Alien Covenant. After the flute scene I went out, fucking atrocity of a movie. Let's hope the new one is better, now that Scott isn't directing it.
All copies of Prometheus and Covenant and everything in any way referencing them needs to be put in rockets and shot into the sun (I know that takes a lot of ∆v shut up, I want them destroyed), and we collectively as a species need to pretend they never existed. Based on how bad Napoleon turned out to be too, I think we may need to put Scott on one of the rockets. We'll just say he died of COVID.
Dragon it just sucked Meet the Robinsons.....It doesn't get good till the last 30 or so minutes. But it's a tough spot to get their.
Somewhat related.
I must have heard of the M Night Shyamalan Avatar movie coming out but got confused and saw the blue alien Avatar instead. I was disappointed when I realized but I dodged a bullet.
Edit: For context I was a kid, it sounds weird without that info.
The Airbender movie was an amazing accomplishment of sorts. It somehow managed to completely suck in every single dimension a movie can suck in. Casting, direction, acting, fighting, pacing, dialog, special effects, practical effects, and wardrobe were all complete disasters.
Some people walked out of that Dragonball live action movie, but I stayed because I was enjoying my rage.
Dragonball evolution was terrible. I tried watching it to see if it was one of those movies you can kind of enjoy as a joke but not only was the movie bad, it was also really boring.
I watched an elderly couple walk out of The Aristocrats. It just added to the whole experience. But on top of that, the movie started with Morgan Freeman narrating some bullshit about cold weather. Some penguins appeared on screen and everyone collectively realized they had accidentally started playing fucking March of the Penguins!
All around a night well spent

I left halfway through An American Werewolf in Paris. London was a friggin classic. Paris was poorly acted, treated the audience like idiots, and was campy as hell (and not in a good way).
Dude, Where's My Car? - I don't remember a thing about it (and would likely not hate it today) but I just remember being so.. exhausted at the comedy used. I looked at my friend and asked if they'd be open to leaving and they were like "oh yes, let's leave JFC"
