What was your worst moviegoing/theater experience?

Probably the chavs giving a running commentary on The Hateful Eight. It's nice to see you scruffy bastards engaging and trying to work out the film, but come on, do it quietly, yeah?

I did have a group outing for The Sunshine Bus sat in front of me for Quantum Of Solace, but the carer, bless her, was dead apologetic when one of them started screaming 'RACHEL! I NEED A WEE!' which then set the others off telling poor Rachel that Sam needed a piss. They got a massive laugh out of the cinema during the sex scene though. One of them just loudly said 'Huh-huh, yeah give her some back shot!'

I'd also count The Nice Guys as it was a damn shame I was the only one in that screen.

I went to see the Michael Bay Ninja Turtles when it came out and it was a fucking mess

It was a 3D showing, but the 3D effects werent turned on. It took the theater ppl half an hour to fix it, meanwhile they just let the movie running on its regular 2D version. When they finally found a solution, they decided to set the movie back to the beginning. Ppl had shit to do and couldnt spend a half an hour more on there, so someone went out again to ask them to fast foward. They fast forward it an hour in.

When everything was solved, we ended up losing 15 min of that horrible shitfest. You don't have this sort of stuff happen when youre on netflix or on the high seas, and stuff like Michael Bay's TMNT isnt "high art" enough to be worth a theater experience like that

went to see The Great Wall, there was a group of kids maybe aged 10-12, one adult chaperoning them. Constantly talking and laughing amongst themselves during the film. Guy chaperoning them tried to get them to be quiet. Eventually there's a kind of funeral scene during the film which features traditional chinese singing, which the boys all started laughing at. It was at this point I loudly yelled for them to shut the fuck up and that finally worked.

I went to see the 1st Deadpool and I had a group of 7 youths sitting behind me who would not stop talking and dicking around on their phones until I turned around and threatened to cut them into pieces and eat the parts I didn't fuck.

Selfies - or it didnt happen!
 
Combination gross-out/food-poisoning moment. First, went to an Orange Julius and ate a lukewarm hotdog of unknown vintage. Then went to watch Dune. In the opening sequence when Baron Harkkonen is having cosmetic injections into his facial boils, I was already feeling upset - but seeing that made me puke violently.

In retrospect, puking in the theatre was majorly disgusting (not just for me, but other patrons), and I feel bad about it now.

I had my shit a lot more together in 1995 than I did in the 2000s. You also should consider places I’ve lived steady employment, a vehicle and no active warrants make you dateable.

If you were going on dates in 1995, you were too fucking old for the Yu-Gi-Oh movie unless you had kids.

Me and a few friends decided to get stupidly high and go watch 500 Days of Summer. I don't really know why and this huge theater was empty as it was the middle of the afternoon. What wouldn't be a fun experience in the first place felt like it dragged on to 8 hours of torture. Oh to top it off we didn't even have money for snacks, theatre or otherwise brought in, so I had a lukewarm baggie of roast beef I lifted from a grocery store deli. We all left bitter at one another.

Well yeah. I was taking care of a cancer ridden parent and I went almost full man child for the duration of it. They were fucking horrible and I regret going back there.
I left after they died and nobody saw or heard from me ever again.
Can’t a burly man enjoy terrible childish things when they’re not watching someone hack up a lung or they start thinking you were one of the other sons that fucked up worse than you?

I stayed near a dollar theater that time period, I would also literally sit through anything on a Saturday just to get out for a few hours. I’m way more embarrassed about “Employee of the Month” with Dane Cook than any cartoons I saw.

Just from what you've shared alone, I believe I was far more likely to be target audience of that "YuGiOh movie" than you were (At very least, I remember watching new episodes of it on TV sporadically back in the day, and even being moderately entertained by them...) and yet, I literally didn't know that there even *was* a YuGiOh movie until I read your post. And yeah, there was no way in hell that I would have been allowed to watch an R-rated movie like "Outbreak" back in 1995.

Dunno why you're getting so defensive about it though... You're on Kiwi Farms. You aren't at all out of the ordinary here in this regard.

I’ve had a long day and unintentionally spiced up the thread. Once in awhile I fuck up really bad on the farms and it was overdue anyhow.
I was actually fighting with someone about the dead parent today which is why I’m pissy.
You want to talk about a forever war, unwinnable no matter what that’s my family.
I looked like I was barely 18 for quite awhile so seeing the Digimon movie or whatever wasn’t that big of a deal unless they saw I drove myself in almost new car.


Back to the topic, I saw the first Jackass movie twice, I also went first on opening weekend and during the snowcone scene a guy bolted to the lobby and threw up, and it reeked on the way out.
 
I had a half day at work and lots of time to spare before my girl was out, so I decided to use my AMC pass and check out a screening of Promare. Holy fuck, what a horrible experience. There were these two awkward girls swooning and talking about the characters most of the movie. The crowd constantly shushed them, but they ignored it. I moved to a different seat and it was fine, but the fujoshis lost their shit once the CPR scene happened. They called them "my babies" and were giggling loudly. All of us loudly told them to shut the fuck up and the girls finally got the hint. Those two ruined the movie for everyone.

The man-child dig was a joke, and I'm not going to press you about this topic any further. I genuinely don't know what you're talking about a dead parent. If you lost a parent, then you genuinely have my condolences.

I’ve lost a lot of people, none of them to Corona, either. All of it pretty avoidable but white trash is gonna live up to its name.

I went with two (former) friends to watch "Spice world" . Our plan was to get shit faced and laugh at the movie. My "friends" got shit faced before the movie started..to the point they both passed out 10 minutes in.

This left me all alone to make fun of the movie and drunk.

PS it's not even fun if you "Riff" it..at least by yourself.

Went with a friend to go see Saw 5 when it came out. I thought the series started off as a kind-of interesting premise, but when they got to the point of unearthing tape recordings from beyond the grave, it was just flogging a dead horse. I fell asleep during the first reel. Fuck that franchise in the ass.
