In the theater, only once: "The Wild Bunch," of all movies! But I had the flu, and felt awful, and I'd given in to group pressure from my friends to go to the movies. Young and slightly stupid.
In front of the TV? Just about every night.
I used to hate it when that would happen in the theatres. The auditorium would empty after a show and a guy (invariably) would still be there sitting. It would freak out the staff because there was always the possibility that he was dead. Waking a sleeper was also a dangerous task, since you never knew if they would strike out at someone near them. I just had to stand out of the line of fire to the side and try to wake them with a gentle but increasingly loud voice. "The movie is over. The movie is over."
What was a real bear was when the projectionist fell asleep. Like the scene in "The Muppet Movie", da flim go flippdy flippdy and people start yelling or tossing popcorn.
