Did any of you walk out of the theatre for any of the Star Wars prequels?

Why would you choose to watch TDKR if you haven't seen the first two?

My little brother (14 at the time) was visiting the week it came out and wanted to see it, so I took him. Lots of people say The Dark Knight is a great film, but I'm not keen on ever seeing it, considering those same people rave about one of the worst things I've ever seen on screen.

I thought it was great.

Have you walked out on any of the Star Wars prequels though?

Nope. But that was because of my built up love for Star Wars. Even though I thought The Phantom Menace sucked the first time I saw it, there was a lot of rationalizing, followed by multiple viewings in the hopes that it would get better. Attack of the Clones left me traumatized and despondent. Revenge of the Sith I saw just to see it through. Only saw each of those travesties once.

My biggest memory of Revenge of the Sith was the credits at the end of the movie, oddly enough. I've always told people Star Wars films aren't over until the credits end, you have to sit and watch and listen to the end of the soundtrack. But for Revenge of the Sith, which I went to see alone ... I sat in the front row and was the first person out of my seat and the first person out the rear doors of a mostly full theater. I couldn't leave fast enough.
