Entertainment & Culture

I remember the first time I realized movie credits had turned into a marathon. It was 2019, and I stayed after Avengers: Endgame—mostly because, like everyone else in the theater, I didn’t want to miss a potential post-credit scene. What I didn’t expect was sitting through nearly 12 minutes of scrolling names. Hundreds upon hundreds of people: artists, coordinators, stunt doubles, digital effects teams, translators, entire units from different continents.
