As I just watched "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" again and checked the credits this time, I thought a Feature in Profiler to show if the movie continues after the end-credits would be nice. Although I understand this would be a movie and not a disc feature...

I watch every movie until the very end, what else. A part of the movie is not a Feature.

Have to agree here.
Turning the movie off before the screen turns black is barbarism.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

No since end credits run 10 minutes or more. With the C-site and D-site crews and the hundreds of FX companies involve in one movie I stopped watching end credits of names I don't read anyways.

Just maybe I let it run to listen to the music but I'm not sitting there readin scrolling text.

Agree.. and this don't need to be in the extras anyway. Matter of fact I would be happy with it being a check box in the general area. Or really anywhere Ken would decide to put it.

I agree.  A simple checkbox would be fantastic.

But looking ahead to future problems, I would have the checkbox indicate that there is additional contact during and/or after the credits.  I just watched Horrible Bosses over the weekend and they showed bloopers during the credits, not after the credits.

I'm sure there will be those who want that data differentiated plus other things I've not thought of, but I would be content to know that there is something at the end.

Also, I think the new rules to talk about this new feature would need to distinguish between movie content and just closing animations.  I know some Pixar movies have content after the movie, but it's just eye candy to occupy you while the credits roll (and some Pixar movies have actual content).  That's quite different than a minute or two of people actually acting.

I'd like it, but I like the surprise of jumping to the end of the credits and discovering the surprise.

<sarcasm>I would like a check box to tell me when a film which was amazing for the first two thirds suddenly goes into the toilet in the third act because they couldn't think of a decent ending. </sarcasm>
Bad movie?  You're soaking in it!

Importantly: a checkbox for movies that end/die well before the end credits.

Until there is a time when there is a checkbox or feature for this, you could use a tag and call it anything you want:
More movie after credits
Trailer after credits
Snippet after credits
Outtakes during credits
Snippet during credits, etc. etc.

Edit: If someone uses this method, I would be interested in the wording used.
