9 Movies So Annoying They Lose You In The First 60 Seconds

[TMC]

60 seconds is all it took for these films to piss off many a movie fan!

Make no mistake, it has never been harder to keep hold of the average movie-watcher's attention.

That's why a great many of the big-screen blockbuster offerings being pumped into theatres nowadays waste very little time getting right into the thick of the action, throwing a jaw-dropping set-piece or unforeseen swerve at their paying audience out of the gates as a way of forcing them to sit up and take notice.

In the case of these particular flicks, however, instead of making film fans salute and giddy about the prospect of what was to come, the opening minute of action did little more than entirely p*ss off or frustrate those in attendance.

Either due to an entirely unwanted sudden death being pumped into the mix in next to no time or simply exposing crowds to a certain ill-advised effect that quickly left them wishing they'd paid to see something else, these films were lucky to hang onto their viewers in the wake of some highly annoying opening sequence occurrences.

From cult hits that skip over and ignore a rather notable absence from the get-go, to opening crawls that left eyes a-rollin' within seconds, these are those movies that ticked off a lot of fine folks in around a minute flat.

I dont know. Usually I will give a TV show about ten minutes to peek (or pique?) my interest before I turn it off. I tried to watch the first epsisode of an ABC show but turned it off after five minutes because I dont agree with the lifestyle of some of the characters and lets leave it at that. I wont watch that, and I dont accept that. I guess I am now part of the older generation.

But me being willing to try and sample something has made me a fan of the film or TV show. I knew absolutely nothing, nothing of the film "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" and about died of laughter the first fifteen minutes and this crazy movie enthralled me the whole way through and through that discovered Hunter S Thompson and his writings. So it is worth the effort to take a chance, but I give a movie or show again, 10 to 15 minutes.

I wasnt there, but my father rented the film Goodfellas of all things. He swears a little bit but hates gratuitous swearing and especially the F-word, and I dont think he made it much past "My whole life I always wanted to be a gangster."
