Have you ever been to a movie so terrible that you saw people leaving the theater? Which one was it? (lemmy.world)

Saw Pulp Fiction in a theater off post near Fort Sill, people kept getting up and walking out esp. when Marvin got shot in the face. I think the theater was 2/3rds full at the start and there were maybe a dozen of us left at the end.

People in Oklahomey weren't ready for QT lol

To be fair, its kind of a lot. Probably not why they left, but the gratuitous N words in that scene got to me. I acknowledge that it is one of the great iconic movies of our time and when I was an edgy cringey teenager it was one of my favorites, but it is gratuitous in almost every way. I realize that's the point but it's hard for me to enjoy now.
