Does it matter who was the best boy, the gaffer or who made the tea to 99.7% of movie goers ? I agree it's OK to know who was in the film and what that piece of music you liked was but the rest is a waste of my time and yours.

OK - give everyone credit - but I work for Norwich Union so should we send a list of all the employees every time we sell some insurance or a pension ?

I never watch them, they just get on my **** because you can't FWD through them on some DVDs. What's a grip - and shouldn't they be locked up for admitting to it ?
Just a bunch of lovies who want to see their name up on screen for doing nothing.

well actually I worked in movies before, I was the best boy( girl) and the whole thing was an independent low budget movie, but me and all my friends watched it and when the credits rolled I shouted" that's me..you see" and we all hooted and hollered. So I guess it is giving credit to everyone that had a part in creating the movie..
even the cleaning lady :D

People work VERY hard for films even if they only make cups of tea they HELP. If i helped a movie in someway i would want to be credited. And people DO WATCH MOVIE CREDITS!

Yep they are boring-----I watch them whilst waiting for the music credits(sometimes) some have pretty Quirky names but generally the only ones who could have any interest in reading them would be their mums and nans

I agree with you. It's so annoying when the credits at the start of TV programs run on well into the show as well.

you're right, no-one watches unless you think there's a funny bit at the end, some out-takes reel that shows Judi Dench wetting herself....
i did know someone who knew someone who'd made the costumes fior the fantastic teenage mutant hero turtles movies back in the day, and we couldn't wait for this person (who we'd never met)'s name to pop up...

They're there as a permanent record of who worked on what, in case of payroll, job, or resume disputes.

So that we can answer trivia questions and so they can feel better about getting paid so little. Plus they want to live forever.
