Stay until the credits are over

Posted May 24, 2006

Are you the type of person who gets up the second a movie is over and bolts for the exit? I'm not - I like the watch the credits and I like when films show little extra bits after the credits are over.

Looks like X-Men 3 is the latest film to do it. Here's a quick article about it. Thanks to YouTube, the web's favorite copyright ignorer, you can watch the spoiler here, a full two days before the movie hits theatres.

I can think of a few movies that have done this. At the end of The Phantom Menace as the credits were playing, you could hear the Darth Vader breathing. At the end of Jay and Bob Strike Back, there was a short clip of Alanis Morissette reprising her role as God, and Constantine and Pirates of the Carribean also had short clips after the film.

Are there any other ones I'm missing?

Ferris Bueller's Day Off:

"You're still here? It's over. Go home. Go."

I seem to recall at the end of the Muppet Movie, Animal came on screen with

"Go home! Go home!"

"Bye bye!"

Slither and Species had exactly the same post-credits ending; a re-emergence of the monster eating something cute.

Scary Movie had Doofie being molested by his vacuum cleaner.

Master of Disguise had the same "you're still here, go home" type stuff that Ferris did, assuming I'm remembering correctly. If you've seen this movie, you'll know why I've tried to repress it.
