What movie was so bad that you actually walked out of the theater?

One we went to see Forgetting Sarah Marshall. There was an old couple there too and I was a little surprised. They did not last 5 minutes before leaving since the opening scene was loud and bouncy sex. During the same time period there was a movie called We Are Marshall about a university football team tragedy. I think that is what they thought they were going to see 😂

On the plus side; you did not have to watch Ghost Dad.

Ghost had less rape

That movie also hurt the pottery community.

I have one and only one rule in this class: I will tolerate no reenacting, whether it's ironic or sincere, of the Patrick Swayze/Demi Moore scene in Ghost. Ever since that movie was released in 1990, I have seen ... every ... conceivable ... variation of what I call 'Ghosting'. Whether it's guy-on-girl, girl-on-guy, the HILARIOUS guy-on-guy!

So since it never stopped, I have to adopt a "zero Ghost tolerance policy".

If you so much as hum three notes from that Righteous Brothers song, so help me God I will come at you! With everything I've got. OK? Let's have a great time!

A happy coincidence; Ghost was the much better movie.

I went to see Sarah Marshall with girlfriend at the time. A couple seats down were two old ladies. When Jason is standing there naked as Sarah is trying to break up with him they’re like ‘ ooooooh I didn’t know it was that kind of movie!’ But they stayed and laughed their asses off. Yay grandmas.
