There have been a number of quirky stories about the Warriors' endearing Klay Thompson — from his memorable, hilarious interviews to pausing an entire press conference just to send a braggy text to doing a random "man on the street" interview about ... an NYC scaffolding collapse — but one new tidbit about the shooting guard is that he apparently has no qualms about walking out of one of the biggest hit movies of the year, with just one hour left to go.

Yep, Thompson walked out of a screening of "Avengers: Endgame" because: He. Just. Didn't. Care. For. It.

The Athletic shared this nugget of an anecdote about Thompson in a piece released Tuesday, wherein writer Ethan Strauss noted that Thompson simply walked out of the movie, because "the plot didn't interest him":

"Thompson conserves his energy for what he loves, and he's always been impatient with any less than favored activity," the article noted. "There was amusement in Warriors land when, with an hour left in the film, Klay just got up and left a screening of 'Avengers: Endgame.' The plot didn't interest him, not enough to demand that much time and attention."

To be fair, Thompson did give the movie a solid two hours of his time before deciding it wasn't for him — especially with the movie clocking in at 3 hours and 2 minutes long.

His movie tastes do, however, stand in opposition of the many, many people who forked over a total of $2.2 billion in movie tickets sold since the movie debuted on April 26, not to mention those who have followed the Marvel Cinematic Universe since they started pumping out movies a decade ago.

To each their own, I guess.
