Most recently, we tried watching Hitch. We got tired and went to bed halfway through, then when we tried to fire it up again (we were doing the free Vongo trial), it said it was corrupt, and we had to re-download the whole thing to try and get back th where we were. The movie wasnt worht the effort, and we cancelled vongo immediately (it is AWFUL, and their selection sucks. Hard.)

None.

Im the kind of person that watches a film beginning to end no matter how bad it is. If I get interupted partway through, I'll go back to it ASAP. The only movie that Ive actually turned off because it was so bad was Jigsaw, but eventually I did go back and finish it.

One exception - If I fall asleep during a crappy movie, I usually wont bother rewinding it. I might watch the last 15 min. or so when I wake up, but if I wasnt enjoying it I dont waste time trying to find where I left off.

"I Know What You Did Last Summer." Stopped the movie about 25 minutes into it.

"You know what, hon? It would be wrong to watch the rest of this movie."

In went an old favorite, "Something Wicked This Way Comes." Like vintage wine.

I couldn't force myself through Dark Water or Slither (why I even bothered with that one in the first place is beyond me).
