I always feel terribly sad for the person or persons being booed. For the most part, it isn't their fault that the audience is unhappy. My only real memory of any group booing is during baseball games when the so-called fans feel that it is their right to make comments and throw things. Don't they realize that the player would do anything to perform better? It is his job that's on the line!
I can absolutely understand walking out on a movie, although I am a hopeful sort who will sit through most anything. As far as booing---my question is WHY? The people who made the stinker that you paid big bucks to see are a zillion miles away, sitting by their pools and blissfully unaware and uninterested in your venting your spleen. The theatre doesn't have a Boo-O-Meter to decide how much money to return to you. You paid your money and you take your chances!
I understand and sometimes enjoy (and sometimes I am annoyed at too) folks who yell out funny answers to those shadows on the screen. Sometimes, too, a collective groan (as with previously mentioned bad singing) or with a bit of cinematic bad news is, to me, quite acceptable. I remember seeing "ED WOOD" in a local theatre. I was probably the only one in the theatre who knew the time-line being portrayed. So, when the phone call comes to Ed's apartment to tell him of Lugosi's death, the rest of the audience was surprised and a collective, sad OHHHHHH came up in the auditorium. I, as a big Lugosi fan, was rather happy that he had so endeared himself ---You are avenged!!
