3 Reasons Why You Must Watch Movie Credits
Watching the credits will affect every other part of your life.
“Don’t wait for extraordinary opportunities. Seize common occasions and make them great. Weak men wait for opportunities; great men make them.”
— Orison Swett Marden
Does anyone watch the credits to movies anymore? (other than Marvel movies)
One of my old film professors used to force his students to watch the credits to all of the movies that he showed in class.
There was always a certain awkwardness when the movie “ended” and then you would sit there and just watch words scroll up the screen.
Am I supposed to read all of this? I don’t even know any of these people.
He used to tell us that the credits were part of the movie. If you did not watch the credits, then you did not finish the movie.
Ever since finishing that class, I feel a tinge of guilt when I watch a movie and turn it off when the credits start.
So why should you actually watch the credits? Is there any benefit?
1. Respect the Process
