Current Events > Have you ever fallen asleep during a movie at the theater?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I dont remember the name of the movie, but it was about a sniper who calls people on a cell phone and makes then follow his orders while watching through the scope. I had been up for over a day and I went to the movie. I fell asleep and I think missed over half the movie. I woke up right before it ended, hearing someone give a speech about how they caught the sniper

Can't get comfortable like that in public

Nope.

My mother fell asleep when we went to see Jurassic Park like 30+ years ago. But I was one of 5 pregnancies, so I just chalked that up to her having a half dozen kids and things getting relatively quiet and dark. lol

Fell asleep watching Thor at a drive-in.

Dont think I've fallen asleep to anything else.

Once.

Back in the 90s when I was in the Navy and lived on the ship. When you were off work and allowed to leave, it was a good idea to actually leave so you wouldnt get dragged back into working if something happened.

So I spent a lot of time at the base theatre. Movies were dirt cheap and I like movies. One day I was really tired and it was a movie Id already seen. It was a warm summer day and the theatre had really good air conditioning and it was a super comfortable theatre. It was early afternoon and I was the only one in there and I put my head back and crashed. Had a nice nap.

Yes went with the whole family to see the Patrick Swayze movie Next of Kin. My mom was the only one who was awake for the whole movie.

Dark Knight Rises

For like 10 seconds, watching the new Ninja Turtles movie.

It wasn't boring, just tired from work.

The Last Jedi

during Joker

Nah, I only go see movies when I'm wide awake first thing in the morning. My dad fell asleep during parts of Infinity War in the theater, though. Which is weird, because he loves that movie now.

I fell asleep 3 different times during the last Pirates of the Carribean movie. I'd say it was one of the worst movies I've ever seen but I really can't say I actually saw enough of it lmao

The Last Jedi

I checked my watch during TLJ thinking it'd been about an hour and a half. 45 minutes had passed <_<

my cousin, his cousin, their friend, and I all got a little high back in high school, and went to see that one surfing movie (Blue Crush?).

we all fell asleep.

besides that, I can't remember - there was a time I used to go to the movies pretty often, and when I was unemployed, I would sometimes go multiple times a week.

No.

Yes, Waterworld
I was a teen and it was a night showing (10 PM). Only there because my bro need company.

Spiderman 3. I was only asleep for about 10 minutes though.

Nope, not so far.

Closest one was probably Pirates of the Carribean 4.

Lol I remember waking up to red smoke having no idea wtf was going on

No

My wife took me to some animated movie called guardians or something. Had Santa clause and the Easter bunny. Fell asleep almost immediately

When I was really little Id fell asleep near the end of free Willy

as an adult I almost did during venom partly because I came in after a few drinks and partly because the first like 45 minutes of that movie is insanely boring. I managed to make it though

Came pretty close in Dune part 1. Not through any fault of the movie but because I went in tired as fuck.

As a kid, yes at late night family drive in movies

More recently, at Tag. I enjoyed the movie but was really tired for some reason.

nah.

only at home tho. but not necessarely cause i found the movie boring or anything. sometimes its cause Im tired... lol

Good dinosaur is the only one I remember for sure. I was absolutely exhausted and not really into it at all. Think I slept for 30ish minutes.

My wife liked it though.

During a company event a few years ago ee went to see Skyfall, bit because before that we had a few (many) drinks, almost the entire company fell asleep during the movie

Too many times.

idk, my cousin was adopted, and he's related to his cousin by way of his adopted family.

Yes in a Cinema, in recent years it was fast and furious hobbs and shaw. That movie is GARBAGE. 2Fast2Furious, Tokyo Drift and Fast Five are the best.

Buddy sitting beside you, all he hears your snoring - "great movie isn't it?"

Yes a lot actually, even movies I enjoyed. Damn reclining seats and alcohol

Phone Booth? Pretty great movie, tbh.

On topic: yeah. I fell asleep during the first and second Harry Potter movies. First movie I think I fell asleep right about when they were in the Forbidden Forest and woke up when they were under the school. Second movie I fell asleep when they entered the Chamber and woke up at the credits XD

Both times I was just young and tired since the only time we could go to see the movie was really late.

Once. Back when The Secret of My Success came out in theaters, me and my siblings went to see it. I remember sitting down in my chair, and next thing I knew, the end credits were rolling. I slept through the whole movie.....

Thrice

• Indiana Jones and the kingdom of the crystal skull
• Syriana
• The day the earth stood still remake

Slept through the whole movie of Raya the last dragon

I can't fathom that. Not even at home

I'm always too invested.

Killers of the Flower Moon. That was a roughie

Sometimes I nod off and miss a few minutes of the movie.

I nodded off a bit at the end of Gretel and Hansel. It's a very slow and quiet movie.

Yes, during the Hulk 2003 movie. It was the right decision.

My dad did the same thing! Though he had a terrible sleep schedule from when i was in elementary school forward - it's only in hindsight I realize how much he missed out on

I fell asleep during Crimes of Grisendwald (sp) - my sister really wanted to see it so took her husband and me. I hadn't watched any HP movies after OotP and was struggling with a lot of daytime drowsiness so only really remember the ending where Depp starts teleporting people under the justification of muggles needing to be controlled for their safety

Emoji movie that I took my kids to see.

The funny thing about it is I was in a row of Dads with their kids with reclining seats, and all four of us fell asleep while our kids watched. As the credits rolled, we strangers all nodded to each other, like we had handled the situation in the only rational way.
