I've never walked out of a screening, but I think maybe that's because I'm too lazy. I can remember people going nucking futs during Pink Flamingos,

I haven't but I've seen people kick off and storm out - War of the WorlRAB and Dark Knight most recently. Too scary for their little darlings, well don't take 5/6 year olRAB to see 12 rated movies!

lol 
pretty much sums up the film in a nutshell anyway. I've done something similar actually, my friend got the film times for The Grudge from the wrong cinema, but as there was a later showing they still sold the tickets to us. We walked into the screen that was showing it and I did wonder why we were getting some odd looks - then 15 minutes later, the film ended... I was very confused too, until my friend gave me a sheepish look and explained what he'd realised he'd done 
Always wanted to walk out of a film, I've seen plenty that I've willed with all my might to end as soon as possible (and they're always the ones that drag on forever). To be fair, once you've paid for the ticket and you're not enjoying it, you've wasted your money anyway, you might as well not waste your time too.

Well obviously you're not allowed but it is so easy to do it without being seen.

No. It's a fire risk. When you buy tickets it logs how many people are in each screen, if there was a fire, they numbers would be short if everyone changed screens.
Unless of course the same number of people moving from screen 1 to screen 2 also moved in the opposite direction - in which case the numbers would be exactly the same.
I doubt whether the punters who do disappear into the toilets between movies then go into a different screen when they return actually give a monkey's about the potential fire risk.
And as far as the cinemas go, they are more likely to say that you aren't allowed to do it because they want you to pay to see a second film, rather than because if there is a fire the number of people in the particular screen doesn't add up to the number of tickets sold. After all, if this mythical fire breaks out and three people who should be watching the film are in the toilet, two are buying more sweets and four have buggered off home cos the film is crap then the numbers aren't going to add up anyway, are they?

Never walked out of a film and never will.........I actually sat through Johnny English, But will agree it's one of the worst films EVER!!!
I went to see Dirty Sanchez and people were basically leaving the cinema in rows, which just made the view more funnier than it actually was.
WHAT FILM WERE THEY EXPECTING TO WATCH?!?
The Tagline was "This makes Jackass look like the Tellytubbies!"
Bet they didn't have the stomach for it.

I don't go to the flicks anymore.
Too many possible reasons to not enjoy what's on screen.
The film, the cinema, the audience or the mood I may be in at the time.
Enjoy the comfort of watching it at home.
Picture / sound quality is now comparable...big deal about Big Screen action.
I could post a reasonably long list of many films too disappointing and thus not worthy of my time!

its against my religon to walk out of a movie! but i have fell asleep a number of times - the most recent being the International with clive james/owens or someone. it was bloody boring!
in fact - it has always been rare to see anyone walk out of a cinema. i have only ever seen it once - and that was a gang of pompus looking (real) Goths for Sweeny Todd. i guess they figured it was a normal Tim Burton movie, i dont think they liked the singing!
i loved that movie! it was my 3rd screening!!!!!!

The first time I saw Brokeback Mountain in the cinema the first night in the tent scene (where Ennis first f**** Jack) was spoilt for me as a man directly in front of me to loud worRAB of disgust got up and followed by his wife (bet she didn't want to go) made a noisy exit - didn't he realise after the publicity that BBM wasn't your usual Western....
There's just no accounting for taste.
Maybe it was best that they did leave. And leave the movie to those with an intelligence level higher than that of a chimp. I think the cheap thrill ride Dawn of the Dead [the remake] is more their sort of thing. A movie with no effort to the production and just milikng the past glories of someone else's efforts.

I have done it twice.
We walked out of 'Legally blonde'. The only reason we went is because the tickets were given to us for free, as a part of some kind of promotion they were doing at our college at the time. The movie was terrible.
We also walked out of 'Blues Brothers 2000' when I was about 14. Can't remember much about the movie, but can remember being so bored that we resorted to throwing popcorn at people in the front rows:....
