booing a film is such an inherently ludicrous thing to do

I would feel so embarrassed to actually open my mouth and loudly say the word "boo" in public, what is wrong with these people

Booing Southland Tales is kind of gratuitous, like booing a comic book or videogame or Happy Meal or something.

I will never forget a story Taubman tells about his London visit in 1956. What, he asked his Foreign Office escort, was that odd ‘oo, oo!’ noise coming from the back of the crowd? The diplomat explained that people were booing, an expression of disapproval. Khrushchev grew thoughtful. In the back of the car, he said experimentally to himself: ‘Boo!’ And then again: ‘Boo!’ He liked it. For the rest of the day, he went around exclaiming ‘Boo!’ to all kinds of puzzled people. He had learned something.

Do they boo at the end or after every scene they don't like?

unceasingly throughout, like buenos aires motorists who constantly sound their car horns for hours in an unmoving traffic jam

Fire Walk with Me and Marie Antoinette are good. The rest of these were justly booed. Except maybe L'Aventura because I haven't seen it.

The Tree of Life and The Brown Bunny (original cut) are ok. I don't like them but I'm interested in the artistic possibilities of boredom.

Eff Pulp Fiction and Inglorious Basterds though seriously

I like lots of these, including Southland Tales, but "favorite" is probably Wild at Heart.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Sensible results, with the exception of Fire Walk with Me.
