      It's been like that for quite sometime. I don't know if the 1978 movie version of Superman started it or not but that is the first movie I remember that ending credits spanned over 2 musical pieces.

        Helen, what post are you quoting? I don't see that post anywhere.

        It's true that in older movies, the credits are paltry, but I think a lot of what you see now has to do with unions. I'm only guessing, but that's what I figured when I started seeing a zillion names even in movies with few stunts and effects.



        edit: okay, never mind. i see now where the quoted post is.

          Unions maybe is one reason, another reason is that different companies are working on the same movie. Watching The Forbidden Kingdom had at least 3 different companies around the world during work on that movie.

            According to the DVD timing, the 1978 Superman movie's ending credits clock in at about 7:30. But in my mind, Stanley's Kubrick's 2001 (coming out 10 years earlier) started the trend of movies having a super long ending. In the original theatrical release, the "Blue Danube Waltz" (lasting for 8 minutes) continues playing even after the credits are finishing rolling, with audiences treated to a blank screen for the last couple of minutes, assuming they stayed in the theater to the very end. (And no, Kubrick had no surprise waiting at the conclusion.)

              Saw Iron Man today. There's a short scene AFTER the credits with Robert Downey Jr. and a (famous) actor who's not in the movie.

              Eighty percent of the audience missed it because they left when the credits rolled.

              My mom worked in the Hollywood film industry and would stay to see the credits because she knew many of them. I do it out of habit.

                Not a fan of having extra scenes after the credits.
