Breakfast Club is pretty awesome as well. I kinda want to watch Ferris Bueller now.

Diefunky · June 17, 2015, 09:56:15 PM

I like ferris better. Breakfast club was a little less my style.

If you have a disk of "Ferris Bueller's Day Off", there is a short scene after the closing credits.

I don't recall ever seeing that short scene on broadcasts of the movie.

That after-credits Easter egg may have inspired the bit at the end of the credits of "The Producers", the 2005 remake, which has the same Matthew Broderick as one of the stars.

Other ways I have seen encouragement of viewers to stick through the credits are:

Have outtakes displayed during or interspersed in the closing credits. This is common in Jacky Chan movies.
Play some of the movie's music during the closing credits. I found this particularly effective for "Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat", but a number of classic musicals also do this.
Have the characters appear and talk during the closing credits. I recall this happening in a Muppets movie. I think it also happened in a movie about talk radio where they were still fielding calls through most of the closing credits
Sneak in some odd lines in the closing credits, such as bizarre credits, or an occasional recipe.

Unfortunately, in most cases, once the credits start to roll, most people exit unless you think you may have a family member that might be mentioned in the credits. (E. g., my sister's husband's brother does special effects, currently CGI.)

If it is a disk or streaming I am watching, if I see nothing interesting when the credits begin to roll, I'll skip to near the end to see if something had been included after the end of the closing credits. But when I used to go to a theater, I would normally exit at the start of the closing credits.
