How Marvel Killed The Post-Credits Scene

It's no secret that Post Credit scenes have been around for decades. Though The Marvel Cinematic Universe has become so synonymous with the Post Credit scene that audiences have become trained to wait after every movie they see. But this far into the MCU, has Marvel completely killed the allure of the Post Credit scene? Once used to tease new stories that are coming soon, it has now become mostly a gimmick. Has Marvel killed the Post Credit scene for good?

The problem with post credit scenes nowadays is that it emphasizes what a movie sets up is more important than what's in the actually movie, when the opposite should be true.

Well, they seldom have a plan.

Then they come out with junk for a sequel (not including _X-Men 2)_ and the series gets cancelled anyway.

The best post credit scene without a doubt is Spiderman Homecoming’s. Earlier in the movie while Peter was at highschool, we see that his teacher turned on a boring video where Captain America gave some basic advice directed at students. When the final credits finales rolled, we see a white room and Captain America walks on screen. He then talks about how patience is an important skill and that sometimes you might patiently wait for something only to be disappointed. Now remember that this movie released right during the peak of the MCU, between Civil War and Infinity War, so the end credit scenes was super important. I remember anxiously waiting for the credits to end to get some hint towards what’s going to happen next and when I saw this I started laughing out loud. It was one of the funniest things ever to me and that’s why it’s my favorite end credit scene.

The thing is the post-credits scenes we used to have before marvel (for example in the Pirates of Caribbeans trilogy) or in the first marvel movies teasing the avengers, felt more like a secret scene, a brief easter egg, a sort of blink-and-miss-it curiosity for the rare fews that would have had the weird idea of watching the end credits. Now it's clearly established that we HAVE TO watch the end credits, those scene aren't a secret and aren't used as such any more. It's no longer a quick joke or a dispensable but sweet candy, it's become a mandatory scene, so why the hell wasn't it in the film? The mid-credit of Black Panther is more like an epilogue than a joke or a teasing and therefore it should have been before the credits. We lost the excitement of secrecy and the feeling of having unlocked a bonus scene, now it just feels like watching the scene is doing what is expected from us if we want a chance of following the story.

The Post-Credits scenes worked so well back in Phase 1 because they didn’t blatantly show what was coming next. Nick Fury talks about the “Avengers Initiative”, Tony mentions to Ross *they’re* putting a team together, Coulson spots Mjolnir, Fury tells Selvig humans have always had a *History* with the Tesseract, and even the Thanos tease, it still left things vague for fans to anticipate whatever’s coming next. Now characters from whatever series is happening next are showing up, with costumes and all, like Clea, Beast, and Maria Rambeau as Warbird.

@timothygodwin7575 5 ай бұрын

@@benjaminngopwaamos6878i think you’re wrong. I think everyone you mentioned will be coming to the MCU soon enough. The ending of the marvels was to tease the X-men which is definitely coming soon, a lot of the others will be coming back in secret wars. Remember, most of these scenes are teasing the next big event, which will be secret wars. I think secret wars is going to be phenomenal because of all the work they’ve put in building hype by means of all these post credit scenes which you claim will amount to nothing. Plus we’re getting the thunderbolts and the young avengers which was teased in the black widow post credit scene and the marvel’s post credit scene. I agree phase 4 was slow and phase 5 seemed to be going the same way but now it feels like things are finally starting to speed up again and we are about to get the big pay off that we’ve been waiting for. All those “boring” movies will soon pay off in a major way. I mean, thanos showed up in a post credit scene what? 5 or 6 years before infinity war came out? We had to wait 5 years for that big payoff but it still happened. You can’t expect every post credit scene to payoff in the very next movie. I mean we got the first post credit scene at the end of iron man in 2008 referring to the avengers and that didn’t pay off until 4 years later in 2012. That’s what makes these scenes so much fun. We don’t know when it will pay off but it’s a little teaser to tell us ITS COMING. some scenes get a pay off within a year but some don’t get that satisfying payoff for half a decade. That’s what makes it so fun. I think the longer it takes to pay off the better. It’s more impressive to know that they had something planned for years and were slowly building up to it as opposed to them simply teasing a movie thats already half completed and will be in theaters in a matter of months.

I like the type of post credit scenes that Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and John Wick Chapter 4 had. Stylisticly different (comedy vs tragedy), but they expand on a side character in a "I wonder what happened to that guy" type of way. Both scenes are ones that don't fit in with the main run of the movie, but work as individual scenes. They don't change the main story and you wouldn't know, if you missed them.

In the nigh impossible chance that he was given an opportunity to bring his dream to fruition, he created one movie. Not a franchise, no trilogy, no promise of a sequel. At a time when a prequel was but an imaginative whisper, he told one story, carefully plotted and thought out from beginning to end, and it was darn good!

It's a little dismaying how often you declare something in cinema is dead or played out when, really, it's just the case that there's been a recent lack of creativity, commitment, or leadership in various studios. The end credit scene isn't played out - the movie industry especially was rocked by the ridiculous global response to Covid, and studios have focused on all the wrong things, in my opinion, to get audiences back in the theatre. I am not a movie industry cynic, and I usually decry declarations like money grab, milking, or other excuses people make when a movie really was just badly conceived, written, directed, or whatever, but the studios have lost their minds when it comes to these big properties. They aren't ensuring propertiess are high quality, they're reactionary, and they trend chase too much. Those are the problem - not the end credit scene being played out. Those scenea can be just as effective if the properties were being treated well.

He's talking as if he had anything to do with the events of Age of Ultron or was even aware of what was happening during the film. It's not like he saw Ultron and went "But I'LL defeat the Avengers!" Cos he doesn't really care about beating the Avengers, he wants to get the stones and destroy half the universe. The Avengers are incidental to his plan.

Thanos just got tired of waiting for people to get the infinity stones over to him, who’ll eventually betray him. So he decided to things himself.

In my opinion, these post-credits scenes in Marvel movies set a wrong precedent from the start. I much prefer Dan Harmon's style of post-credits scenes in 'Community' and 'Rick and Morty'. Most are them are non-essential jokes or bonuses, a nice little easter egg shaped cherry on top. Only a handful of them foreshadow future events. The key is that the viewer has no idea which is which beforehand (and sometimes until much later). They're fun in and of themselves rather than reliant on the pay-off that may never come.

My friends and I used to call these "The Picard Scene" as the first one that seemed to hint at things to come actually came from X-Men: The Last Stand when Xavier's consciousness ended up in a braindead nameless character in Moira McTaggart's lab. The thing that really gets me though are the three camps that formed as a result of the MCU's use of end-credit scenes. Those who think every movie now has them, those whom are still strangely oblivious to the fact they exist, and those who expect them solely in Marvel movies. It always amuses me hearing my fellow movie-goers making comments revealing their particular belief when the film is over. I'll admit, these days, if I am aware of the property (because little is original these days) I will immediately check online before the credits finish.

Marvel used to do 2 things with these post credit scenes.....either tease how the characters/plot in the movie is gonna fit into the larger universe or how the characters/plot is gonna pick up in the sequel of that particular sub-franchise Now that the MCU isn't as tight as it used to be....most of the scenes are either limited to that sub-franchise or hint to a larger narrative that hasn't been realised yet We have to take into consideration that a mid/post credit scene shouldn't be considered abandoned or useless until the future project that "can" pick it up actually abandons that set-up We also have to consider that Marvel is running a whole Phase behind from their original schedule.....we would have been inching closer towards Kang Dynasty by now, it was supposed to come out later this year By now we would have got so many pay offs if we were on schedule...... almost every mid/post credit scene regarding the larger universe would have been paid off because we would have got movies like Blade, Cap 4, Thunderbolts, Dr Strange 3 and Armor wars which are set to pick up a lot of setups from phase 4 and every scene regarding that specific sub-franchise would have been dependent on when that sub-franchise gets their own movie.....it could have been before Secret Wars or in the next Saga All that is to say.....Marvel is doing what they have been doing for years, its just the negative aura surrounding Marvel right now that will make it seem that everything that they are doing, SUCKS

Basically the problem is that credit scenes have become ads for movies that either don’t exist or don’t need to exist. Credit scenes that are simply there to be “bonus content,” especially when used humorously, are still fine.

Monty Python beat Ferris Bueller to the punch by fifteen years with the post-credits scene of "Salad Days" in Episode 33. "Seashore Interlude Film" sees an apologetic John Cleese alone on a beach explaining that the show has run a little long and that, while there is another minute or so of film, "...there's not really a great deal of point in your, sort of hanging on at your end, because I'm afraid there aren't any more jokes or anything." Credit where credit is due.

I miss when the post credits scene was just funny, either making a joke about what happened next or wrapping up a tiny thread no one actually cared about. Best example is the post credits scene from Moana, featuring Tamatoa, still on his back, and making a joke about the Little Mermaid. I hate leaving with the big crowd so the post credits scene was always a great way to make the time I spent waiting for the crowd to leave worthwhile. I wish more films did just a funny gag that didn't make sense in the rest of the film

Marvel also started putting post-credit scenes in their tv shows too. The problem was that it felt completely random as to whether an episode would have one or not, and sometimes they were important to the story, so if you didn't check for each episode you might miss something. Like with Wandavision, episodes 7, 8, and 9 had them, but none of the episodes up to that point had one.

I kinda hate the way credits have become. You used to be able to accept that a movie was over when the credits started rolling. Now it's not uncommon for there to be two mid-credits scenes AND a post-credit scene. It makes it seem like the director doesn't know how to end the movie, and takes away the sense of finality from the first ending.

I've been watching post and mid credits scenes since I was a child in 2004 before they became cool. The first post credits scene I saw was the one of Looney Tunes: Back in Action because I decided to watch all of the credits of a film for once. Ever since then, I have always watched all of the credits of films. The last post/mid-credits scene I watched that I liked was the one of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022). Another example of a post credits scene that was pointless is the one of Hellboy (2019) because Hellboy is getting rebooted again with Hellboy: The Crooked Man.

One post-credit scene that comes to mind is Kung Fu Panda 1's where is just shows Shifu and Po eating dumplings together under the peach tree. Having a moment of peace and enjoying food while a peach sapling sprouts from behind unbeknownst to them. No build up of a 2nd film, not tease of the next villain, just extended closure that this chapter of the story is completed and we can all leave with peace in mind that everything went well in the end.

Chucky tried post credit scenes for curse and seed. Curse was great it set up Andy in the next movie and that he may have killed chucky (instead he just had a chucky head), then cult did a post credit scene with Kyle turning up to Andy’s cabin to finish off the chucky head since he’d been detained, which while a hell hype scene didn’t get any good payoff in the series, yes Kyle comes back but she doesn’t do too much… also she didn’t turn up until like episode 5, so basically 3 hours and 20 minutes of no follow up to the post credit scene… which is never directly followed up, offscreen she’s managed to break Andy out of the asylum and they’ve been off murdering chucky dolls together

DC should have done something different than the MCU with their post credit scenes. Build up the world. Make short films. Do something different. I had an idea of a post credit scene to a DC movie about Supergirl and Batgirl teaming up. The short film would be about Barbara sitting in her apartment doing something mundane like talking on the phone or watching tv, when suddenly she hears a knock on the door. And faint music starts to play. She opens the door to find a Jack-in-the-box with the handle turning on its own and music playing. The handle continues to turn, and the music reaches the final notes. The screen cuts to black.

Maybe he was on a space station or had long-haul COVID? Too bad about how mid-credit and end-credit scenes became pointless. They were quite the spectacle at their height when they meant something.

The issue with the PCS is twofold: - It’s been done to death without going anywhere, even by Marvel. - And, in the case of Marvel, their movies post Endgame have become giant teasers of what will come rendering the PCS tease pointless, as opposed to being individual movies that tease of what’s to come. But there is one singular problem in both cases: lack of planning. Movies nowadays are going into production without even a finished script, much less an actual long term plan if they want to be an interconnected universe.

Disney forgot what made the once-in-a-lifetime payoff of Infinity War and Endgame was the 10 years of setup that it had. Now they expect to have one every year, only for it to fail spectacularly every time. Year after year. The closest was Guardians 3, but that was great because it wasn't trying to achieve the highs of Endgame, and was focused more on being a good movie.
