Have you ever walked out of a movie?

Daredevil and The Grudge are the only two I can think of. I went to see An American Werewolf in Paris and I was the only person in the cinema, so I stayed because I felt bad for the film.

I went to see U-571 and the cinema was empty right up until the film started, then a couple of kids (one early and one late teens) walked in and sat two seats away from me. After about five minutes of scene setting in a submarine draped in swastikas with all the crew speaking subtitled German, a voice piped up "are they Germans?"

The second Transformers...terminally stupid, despite foxy Megan Fox.

Meet the Fockers

I walked out on the first one; Meet the Parents. What a complete POS.

I have also seriously thought of pulling the plug on the cable all together, but we watch a lot of sports. It's the TV's only saving attribute. I regularly shut it off in the middle of programs. Just too stupid to deal with... There's a book out there that's a great read about this by Neil Postman, titled "Amusing Ourselves to Death."

I have also stopped reading multiple books half way through because they sucked my will to live.... Most Stephen King books come to mind.... 30 chapters of bla bla bla for two chapters of actual plot at the end. Read some Diana Gabledon (dear god, don't ask me what I was thinking...) books that I couldn't finish either. Why do some women writers want to quantify every sub-second of their character's existance with the emotion of 'love'? The plot was excellent, characters were excellent, great story potential, good writing style... Just WAY too much emotional baggage in it for me to stomach. I read a lot though, so I'm always willing to chuck kindling in the pile to get to a good one.

I was going to ask which books people have stopped reading, but didn't want to start off with two topics right away. Only books I can think of that I never finished were Ghost Story by Peter Straub and Tess of the D'urbervilles.

I tried to read 2 books by Michael Moore, (Stupid White Men) and I can't even remember the other. Total foolishness. I threw them into the wood stove. Woodstove didn't like them either.

Adult movie theater counts? Most guys walk out in 5 minutes --

[Hoosier]

Fortunately, we still have a drive in theatre in Pueblo.

There is? Are there any other Pueblo secrets I should know about?
