Do you watch the list of movie credits after a movie ends ?

There's only a few reasons that I will stay during the closing credits. One is if the movie was so emotional that I need to just sit there for a few seconds to absorb what I have just seen and recover from it. The second reason is if I see an actor or actress that I recognize and just can't remember their name. I'll stick around to see if I can catch it on the cast list, otherwise I just look it up when I get home. The third reason is that I get tricked sometimes. You know how some movies will do bloopers or a little extra scene while the credits are playing? Yea they usually keep my attention. I forget what movie it was, but there was a little scene and everyone was watching, it was very funny, and at the end, everyone was just sitting there, waiting for more...then the main actor comes back on screen and looks at the audience and says, "Why are you still here, the movies over. Go home!" It was really funny!

I rarely do and if I do it is just because I can't find the remote to turn the movie off or switch the channel. Usually I know who is in the movie before I watch it anyway and for the most part I just care about the story rather than actors or actresses who have little minor roles.

I stay and watch Every credit.I like to see the very end of the credits where they list all the music that was in the film. And I get to seee if there is a soundtrack. In the movie Cannonball Run, during the credits they aired all the bloopers from the film. And with Simpsons movie, they spoofed people like me by having Lisa waiting to see if any animals were harmed during the film. As soon as she saw it on thhe credits, they left the theater.

i don't pay one bit of attention to the credits. don't figure it's anybody i'd know. lol

I never use to watch the credits and sometimes still don't depending on if I enjoyed the movie or not. But quite often I will and on several occassions I am glad I did, such as the extra scene tagged on the end of X-Men: The Last Stand. If I hadn't bothered I would have missed something very important. As for the cast, crew, music etc I tend to look on the net for info on a film if I really want to know who that was playing a certain role or what the song was.

LOL, No, pretty much when that line comes up that says CAST:.. we pretty much turn it at that point. There have been times when we want to see something but that has been so few times that I wouldnt even count them...LOL

This is a good question, and I think this is the first time I've ever seen it posted on mylot. So good for you for thinking of an original discussion topic! lol I often do watch the credits, but just for one reason. A lot of times I recognize the minor characters in movies, and I don't remember their name. So I'll wait until the credits get to the character in the movie, and see what their real name is. But once I see that, I'm done. I don't watch the rest of them.

The only time I was movie credits is for one of the animation movies. Trying to guess who is playing who is always fun and finding out at the end is even more fun. My girls like to dance to the music thats at the end of the movie also.

Yes i watch the list of movie credits after it ends.I like to listen to the background music along with it.I try to see the songs of the movie and download the songs which are my favorite.I also try to figure out the actors and actress in the movie.I mostly love walt disney movies.

Well Yes; sometimes I do watch the list of Movie Credits after a Movie ends . It is interesting esecially we get credits like : Character Name Real name James Collins Tom Hanks (just an example )

When my husband and I go to a movie, we usually like staying for the credits. He like to see who the actors and actresses are. We both like to see the music credits, to see who wrote and performed any songs that were in the movie. And I like to see where films are made...and those credits are at the very, very end. So if you're at a movie and there's one couple sitting in the theater after everyone else has left...that's probably us!

Sometimes, it depends. I will watch it if I don't have to hurry for something else.

If it was a good movie, I love to watch the credits. I work in film, so I know what the majority of technical jobs on the movie are, like best boy gaffer, or 2nd assistant B cam operator, or foley artist... but every movie needs different kinds of people helping on it, too, so I love seeing what kinds of jobs they created for just that movie, and how it impacted the movie, as well. Near the end of the credits, it shows exactly where the shooting locations were, and many times, I've been wondering what city or what studio they were shooting in. Then, every once in a while, theres a small piece of the movie at the very end of the credits, and it's always exciting to see that part, too. If its a crappy movie, then I turn it off or leave right as the credits start, but if it's a movie I really enjoyed, then I just have to watch those credits at the end.

I often read them as I have a friend who does animation/graphics and I look for his name. I also look at the different names to see any that are new or original.

Hi ronnyb! Yes, I only wait for the cast or the real names of the actors to be shown and that's it for me. There are few times that I did wait for the songs that were used in the movies to be shown and that is when I want to know the title of the songs and the names of the singers that were used in the film. Other than that, I really wouldn't wait for it to really end. take care and have a great day! lovelots..faith

I do sometimes, but my mother has this thing with it and it's kinda funny. What she does is as she is reading she counts the names of her kids (first names). And then she announces how many of them are on the list of credits. I have to admit I am rarely on there. My brothers always outwin me there, they have very common names and I do not.

Yes I always do. I always want to know about all the jobs in the business, basically because I wanted to work in the movie business when I was younger. But when I found out their salary, I decided not to. You wouldn't believe how under paid these people are! If you aren't the director or an actor, it sucks. I still watch all the credits because I am still facinated by it. And some movies have extra clips after the credits are over, and alot of people miss out on it. Like at the end of Pirates of the Carribean. All three of them had scenes after the credits.

In a theater, no. At home, I pause the movie just so I can read the credits. I used to watch a lot of anime and I like finding out if one of them was in the movie. Then I can find that spot and see what that voice actor looked like. Then there's the trivia part. Where my daughter and I argue over who we thought we saw in the film. So we gotta watch the credits to prove each other wrong. Or right. Or we try to guess an actor or actress from an animated show. By recognizing the voice. She's much better at that than I am, even though I've been doing it longer.

Well..there's only two reasons that I'd watch the credits..is to wait for the title of the songs and soundtracks used throughout the movie. Sometimes, there are certain movies, which have some nice tracks and I'd just wait to catch it especially if I was watching the movie on tv...and the next you know..I'll be downloading it..hahah. Another reason would be to hear the soundtracks play as the credits go by as some of it just catches the heart. ;) Princess

To be honesty,i only take interest in the name of the actor i interested in the movie,and if the movie were a good one,i'll pay attention to the director,and that;s about it.
