Movies Where You Don't Leave Before The Credits

[Silver Moon]

"Fiddler on the Roof" - due to the location credit given the irony of what has happened since the film was made. A main plot in Fiddler is the prejudice in the 19th century, where the Jews were forced to leave their homes in Russia. At the end of the movie it lists the town in Yugolslavia where the movie was filmed, a town where racial hatred and forced relocations took place in the late 20th century.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Very Significant, the whole movie is after the ending credits

 

[Silver Moon]

"When Harry Met Sally" - Not significant, but in the theater as well as the video and DVD they added on the video of Harry Connic Jr. playing "It Had to Be You" with both Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal looking on.

 

[Viking Bastard]

Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Very Significant, the whole movie is after the ending credits

As does Man on the Moon.

 

[Krieg]

Cannonball Run - Nothing beats watching Burt slap Dom around like the baziznitch that he is.

 

[Alzrius]

Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back - Insignificant

Spoiler

God appears (is that Allanis Morrisette again?), holding an open book, with the last page saying "The End", and then closes the book, which is titled "The Askewniverse" and prances away.

Street Fighter - Significant

Spoiler

The camera pans over the ruins of M. Bison's base, the computer's voice slowly powering up as it says "One solar battery online". Suddenly, Bison's arm punches up through some rubble. We then see a computer screen, and as the computer says "Good morning General Bison, what would you like today?" we see the cursor select "World Domination" and click it. "Replay" begins to flash.

The Sixth Sense - Highly Significant

Spoiler

M. Night Shaymalan walks us through the visual clues in the movie that hinted that Dr. Crowe himself was actually a ghost.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Insignificant

Spoiler

It shows one of the vampires she staked earlier still undergoing a lengthy death scene.

 

[Dark Jezter]

Aliens - Significant:

Spoiler

At the end of the credits, you can hear the sound of an alien egg hatching (foreshadowing the fact that more alien movies were coming, perhaps?).

Spider-Man - Insignificant:

Spoiler

As the credits near the end, the theme song from the old Spider-Man man cartoon show begins playing.

 

[Rackhir]

In the credits for "Shanghai Noon" (Jackie Chan - Owen Wilson Western) the accounting company is listed as "C'nedra Al Thor". C'nedra is a character from David Eddings "Belegariad" series and Al Thor" is the last name of the main character from "The Wheel of Time series.

I'm not sure exactly what is behind this choice of names, but I do know that the accounting in Hollywood is frequently regarded as the greatest fantasy they've ever produced....

 

[Harp]

I just have one, Splash with Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah:

Spoiler

If memory serves, the end of the credits shows the underwater mermaid city where Hanks' character has elected to spend the rest of his days.

 

[Dagger75]

The Great Outdoors with John Candy and Dan Ackroyd. Pretty funny.
