 Closing credits - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Closing credits, in a television program or motion picture, come at the end of a show and list all the cast and crew involved in the production.
Before this decade, closing credits usually consisted only of a list of the major cast members, and in many cases, particularly in silent film, movies were released with no closing credits at all.
Sometimes, a parting scene is edited in after the credits conclude as a final joke.

NEW YORK — They are known as closing credits, but the other day at a movie theater in Times Square, after 3½ epic hours of "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King," the credits did not seem to want to close.
In the early history of motion pictures, credits nearly always were at the beginning of movies and were handed out so sparingly that they rarely took more than two minutes.
By the late 1960s and early '70s, credits had grown so long that filmmakers began to shift most of them to the end of movies, giving them the freedom to grow even longer, especially with the rise of blockbuster movies with special effects and computer-generated imagery.

 Favorite Opening and Closing Credits - Topic Powered by eve community   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Nowadays, most commercial films don't even have opening credits; one pleasant exception was "Catch Me if You Can." But with the studios' fear of losing people's attention, they usually put them at the end, and of course, nobody, except my family and friends, stays for those either.
And I do remember the School of Rock end credits were good, since Music Editor is one of those nice people who pays attention to credits and so nowadays I have to stay and watch them, at least until I can peer pressure him into leaving.
In any opening credits, the names that appear have to stay on screen for a certain amount of time, otherwise you are liable to get in trouble by the actors guild, BUT it is totally OK not to have any opening credits at all.
