Ever walked out?

"The Lion in Winter." I got a hair in ass to see this at premiere for some damn reason. My parents tried to talk me out of it, sort of, but, my dad drove me up and dropped me off with the promise to be back in 2 1/2 hours. I walked out after the 1/2 hour, but, was too stubborn to call my parents to pick me up early. I sat on that curb for two hours.

"How was it, Cubby?" - dad
"Oh, it was great, dad." - me

Years later I told my mom what had really happened and she told me they were actually happy. They spent that 2 hours having lots of "fun."

I never got into the Disney Narnia movies either. Watching the first one nearly put me to sleep. I mean no offense. Mythical fantasies fail to keep my interest. For what it's worth, it made a very good Christian mythology epic without being directly religious, which is quite hard to do.

No, but I thought about it when I went to the theater to watch the 'Angry Birds Movie' and 'Norm of the North' - Don't judge me! I went with a younger relative each time and had to endure it.

P.S.
I liked Norm of the North more out of the two.

no never. haven't been to a theater in six years now.

My first loner...The one I stayed for all the way:::"The St. Valentines Day Massacre" '67. I wasn't of age, but, I went anyway.

"They won't let you in, Cubby. And I'm not going to pay for a ticket just to get you in. Mom would take a fit."

"Fine. Just wait here for two minutes to see if I clear the ticket booth & the usher." - me

"Fine, gd it! If your mother finds o..." dad

I slid my $1.50/adult price thru the slot in the ticket booth. Exact change. And just looked left at the upcoming movie posters. I could feel the girl's eyes on me, but, I didn't change view point. She triggered the mechanism (I heard it) and slid that ducat thru the opening. Next was the usher. I just looked past him to the darkened theater and the seat waiting for me. He ripped that ticket in half, gave me my half. "Enjoy the show, sir."

And by God I did.

"Did mom find out?" me

"Be quiet, Cubby.." - dad

I nearly walked out on 'Sphere'
I had read the Crichton novel and thought it was just ok...certainly not his best
The film had a fine cast so i went to the theater but damn was i bored
I hung in there though because it was really hot outside and the AC was pumping the coolness...i was young and had no better place to be

I wanted to walk out of that "Thread" movie with D.D. Lewis but I was with people.

No, it cost too much money to be walking out. Also I hate to leave things unfinished even if I didn't like it.

No, I'll just nap instead.
