Standing ovations in the theater?

[#1-norm-fan]

What movies have you seen in the theater where the entire audience stood up and applauded at the end.

I can only remember it happening once and that was with 50 First Dates. The movie was quite good but :wtf:

[Triple A]

People started clapping at the end of Napoleon Dynamite. Not standing ovation, but an ovation.

Some other stuff too. I don't remember.

[#1-norm-fan]

I guess the term "standing ovation" isn't really what I mean...

The people are applauding the movie but also standing up to leave. Either way.

[DegenerationY]

Saving Private Ryan got a loud ovation after it was over.

Traffic too.

[Shaggy]

People stood and clapped for The Matrix reloaded and revolutions. It was sorta a mix stand and clap though because you had the people like me who were not that pleased.

but

When I saw The Mummy Returns and Spiderman everyone stood up and clapped at the end of it. Those had to be the big moments.

[MrMeJW]

Matrix Reloaded and Lord of the Rings: Two Towers

[The Mask]

fucking americans. who the fuck are you clapping to?

[G]

I've only seen a clap at the end of Spiderman.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Freddy Vs Jason on opening day.... Yeah.

[G]

:|

[AareDub]

All the LOTR movies and Spiderman. I don't understand it, people are fucking retarded. THEY CAN'T HEAR YOU!!!

[Hired Hitman]

I've never actually clapped, but I have said things once a film is over, like "now that's a good movie", "great ending, can't wait for the next" etc.

[Avenger]

fucking americans. who the fuck are you clapping to?LOFL

[Kane Knight]

The Lord of the Rings and Star Wars movies. I think it's totally fucking stupid, but whatever.

[The Miz]

LOTR 1. The clapping was what woke me up. :'(

[The Destroyer]

Never. And if anyone ever did, I'd shoot them such a weird look...

[Blue Demon]

Bowling For Columbine people actually did have a standing ovation when I saw it

[Boondock Saint]

Star Wars Special Edition

[Rob]

Never seen that happen

[Ogen]

Thankfully never seen that happen must be an American thing like cowboy hats and XXXXL "pants"

[MrMeJW]

Star Wars? Lord of the Rings?

I blame the nerds!

[Funky Fly]

Never happened at any movie I went to see. :wtf:

And it IS fucking retarded.

[The Mask]

The only thing I've ever really seen of note is at the end of the pianist, first time I saw it. Everyone just sat there in silence til the end of the credits.

[Ninti the Mad]

LOTR

[Tornado]

Only "movie" i've ever seen get a standing ovation is the Terminator 2 3-D show at Universal Studios...kinda understandable as it's a great show, and the people who run it could hear the applause...

[ilt_undertaker]

Everyone in the theatre stood up and clapped at the end of Freddy V. Jason when they saw that Freddy was still alive.

[FearedSanctity]

Clapping for a movie is as retarded as talking/saying things to it. These people need to be slapped.

[John la Rock]

I've never seen an actual standing ovation but many people clapped after all 3 Lord of the RIngs, Spider-Man, Gladiator, and Troy for some stupid fucking reason

[The Miz]

Black people talk to movie screens

[Kapoutman]

I've never seen any movie get an ovation.

[The Outlaw]

What the fuck is this clapping shit?

[Kid Robb]

8 Mile on opening day

Genuinely because people were expecting Eminem not to be able to act.

[Danny Electric]

I've never seen someone clap in the cinema and like Destroyer if they did I'd give them a weird look.
I hate it when you get someone who has a really stuoid laugh and then everyone laughs and you can't hear the fucking film.

[The Mackem]

fucking americans. who the fuck are you clapping to?

LOL

Never. And if anyone ever did, I'd shoot them such a weird look...

LOL

Thankfully never seen that happen must be an American thing like cowboy hats and XXXXL "pants"

LOL

[mitch_h]

Here in Canada we don't applaud...even laughter isn't acceptable :shifty:. One time I was in Kentucky though and saw Independance Day and people applauded when it was over.

[ColdwaVer]

What movies have you seen in the theater where the entire audience stood up and applauded at the end.

Well, at the beginning of Star Wars eps 1 & 2, and the whole LOTR trilogy, we all went nuts for the opening titles. Though this was probably because we had been waiting for hours in all cases.


fucking americans. who the fuck are you clapping to?

The fu</>cking projector operator for doing such a damn fine fu</>cking job.

[AareDub]

I used to be a projectionist :D.

[ColdwaVer]

I used to be a projectionist :D.

You guys are the real backbone of Hollywood. Without you, nobody would ever see the movies. *bows down*

[YOUR Hero]

Quite a few movies, none I can remember off the top of my head right now.

[yianni]

Yeah it's happened to me once before but for the life of me I can't remember which movie it was where everyone did it. Might have been Titanic, can't remember cos it was back in the day. Recently though when I saw Kill Bill Vol. 2, everyone stayed in their seats through the whole credits roll at the end of the film. I'd never seen that before.

[Frank Grimes Jnr]

I've never seen anyone clap at the end of a film in Australia. Not even after Return Of the King.
Then again, Australians just couldn't be fucked doing anything coz we're to fucken lazy.

[Funky Fly]

[PorkSoda]

Passion Of The Christ.

[Buzzkill]

I don't get it. Why are they clapping. Its not like the filmmakers can see you.

[Mutton ChopZ]

Ive seen Standing O's at Freddy vrs Jason, and Scary movie 1....The theaters we're so full people we're sitting on top of one another.

[Downunder]

[The Mask]

Craziest fucking thing I've ever heard.

by the look of some of the posts on the wrestling forum, they'd probably break out into a chant at inopportune moments.
