Movies You've paid to 'Sleep' through.

I have never walked out of a movie. I have slept through maybe 2, but those were kid movies I didn't have high expectations for anyway and was there for my kids...

protokatie:
I don't "go to the movies" anymore. They are annoying venues and overly expensive. (Or maybe I am becoming more anti-social with my old old old age {one estimate puts me at 50 years old}).  There is one movie I wished I could have either slept through or walked out on; Spiderman 2. That movie sucked. For a movie that is supposed to be a Marvel/action deal, there was way too much back story and unneeded dialogue. Yes, I GET that it is based off of the "graphic novel" and those DO have a lot of story elements, but at the same time anyone who goes to see such a movie already (1) Knows the back story and wants to see Spidey kick some ass or (2) doesn't know about the story and most likely only went to see a cool action flick.

Haven't walked out of a movie yet. Like Ray said 'I paid for it'  ;D

I did see an 'arty' movie at a Dutch film festival with my mum once, where everyone one else walked out, leaving only us! It was some arty Dutch movie, but with french dialog. I can't recall at all what it was called, or about. On the bright side, we saw a brilliant comedy called Abel  :)

Did you mean to say Spider-man 3? Spidey 2 was AWESOME.

shmokes:
Not only that, but Spiderman 2 was an enormous success, both critically and commercially, which detracts from your "most people" argument.  Maybe it's simply not a movie targeted at 50-year-olds.
