Which films have you walked out of in sheer boredom?

The English Patient......good, but faaar too long.

Also, Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny, Shaun of the Dead (wasted all of its potential) and You, Me and Dupree (my GF wanted to leave).
 
Took my kiRAB to see Yu-Gi-Oh the movie a couple of years ago. It was the longest 2 hours of my life- had a stinking hangover and had no idea what was going on. They loved it though. Taped Moulin Rouge once despite my fella saying it was awful and turned off after about 15 minutes as I found Nicole Kidman so irritating in it I wanted to kick the screen.
 
I never walked out of anything at the cinema...wandered off during quite a few films at home, though!

And once, when I saw George of the Jungle, two teenage girls left halfway through with cries of 'what? this isn't Austin Powers!'. Took them a disturbingly long amount of time to figure that out, actually :p
 
Never walked out of a cinema, but I've stopped videos - Tank Girl comes to mind. Also never made it all the way through Romancing the Stone.
I've only ever seen people walk out of a cinema 3 times - A Zed and Two Noughts and The Cook the Theif His Wife and Her Lover - both Peter Greenaway films and the walkouts probably due to the violence and images of rotting animal corpses, and then Breaking the Waves. All 3 are great films.
Just remembered - a date insisted that we leave Leaving Las Vegas, so I have actually walked out of a film. She said it was too violent. The other films to chhose from at the cinema were Casino and Jumanji, so I ended up watching Jumanji which I'd already seen the previous week (and it doesn't stand up to a second viewing). I was finding Leaving Las Vegas very tedious and might even have walked out of my own accord.
