I threw my hands up in despair and stormed out- movie and/or show moments with which we just couldn't deal...

Chrisisall,you always come up with such interesting questions !!!!
For me it was the end of Revenge of The Sith....the other 2 movies were bad enough,but when Anakin finally gets into the Darth Vader suit and does his frankenstein's monster impersonation..it was the last straw for me.
I still wish Lucas had never done his prequels...they were all a HUGE disappointment.
Ewan McGregor was the only shiny thing about those awful films.
But my 7 year old boy loves them

Two words.
Napoleon. Dynamite.
The only - the ONLY - movie I have ever thought was completely beyond any hope of being anything but a pointless waste of time before I was done watching it. Most unfortunately I could not actually throw up my hands and walk out on any of the numerous occasions I had the urge to, because for some INSANE reason the guy I went with was enjoying it, and on that particular night he was my ride.
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

Well I didn't really throw my arms up in despair or storm out... But I did throw my boot at the TV after watching Requiem for a Dream. Absolute claptrap!
Did similar thing with David Cronenbergs Crash and almost threw my 'wholeself' at the tv after watching The Idiots!
Noteable mentions to Fifth Element, Alien vs Predator, Resident Evil I & II, Underworld I & II and pretty much any film that Brian De Palma directs (Scareface, Dressed to Kill, Blow out etc) for making me want to through the film makers at my TV after watching their films.

Yeah, the Fifth Element was awesome. I mean, Gary Oldman's character was kinda blah, but he's really a sideshow. The movie is about Bruce Willis with guns and that redheaded chick wearing band-aids and Chris Tucker in a dress.
The soundtrack actually includes that whole long monologue Tucker does when he first enters. You know... "KORBEN DALLAS! Here he is, the one and only winner of the Gemini Croquette contest! This boy is fueled... LIKE FIRE!" And all that.
There's two kinds of people in this world: those with loaded guns, and those who dig.
Now DIG.

I'm thinkin' my "omfg wtf" movie moment is going to have to go with the Rocky movies. I know these are considered classics and great feel goods but they were so predictable. As time went on, they only got worse. I will say number one and 2 weren't bad, I can tolerate those. However from 3 on were just HORRIBLE. Even the new one. Ugh. And the fact they are on TV all the time pisses me off. Except for Rocky V. That one is never on. WORST FILM EVER = Rocky V.

I did see Titanic, which while way too long, wasn’t all that bad.
Some movies that make shoving toothpicks under your toenails feel good:
Saw.
Walked out, after about an hour. I don’t know what to say about it. If you watched this movie all the way though, you should seek help.
Norbit.
Hate my friends as a result of being forced to watch this crap because I didn’t have a way home.
Son of the Mask.
Went about an hour, then found doing the dishes more entertaining.
Elekra.
I watched it - the whole thing - so it wasn‘t repulsive, but I shouldn‘t have wasted my time.
Any Highlander following the first one.
Does anyone else get the impression that the people who make all the Highlanders following the first one, never actually saw the first one?
Any Matrix following the first one.
Is it possible to make a masterpiece of science fiction and then flush it down the toilet with the creation of a sequel? It is.
Any Rambo following the first one.
Ya know some movies should just learn when to stop.
Anything starring Jessica Alba in which she is not an invisible scientist or a genetically enhanced soldier.

Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.

Since no one's mentioned a TV show, here's mine:
Second and third episodes of Moonlight: The second one had me pulling my hair out, the third bored me to tears so much that I just eventually went to bed.
Human Nature (Doctor Who) - I wasn't the quality of the episode (it's actually one of the best episodes of the season), it's just that The Doctor pissed me off so much I wanted to throw blunt objects at the TV screen.
Sanctuary (Angel) - Once again, not a quality issue, I just wanted to murder Buffy.

The very first Star Trek movie. They spent five minutes just flying around the Enterprise so evryone could see the great job they did with this special effect. It was so bad I am suprised I saw the Wrath of Khan.
