No one used to pay attention to the credits until Marvel began dropping hints about sequels, and then pretty much every other Hollywood company followed suit. Unless it's Marvel, it's always a mystery if a film has one; you can either wait for the credits to roll or utilise an app to see if it's worth the effort to hold your pee for the credits scene. Let's get started.
While you can always obtain information on the post-credits sequence by doing a simple google search, if you like seeing movies within days of their release, it's useful to have a specialised app.
Should I Wait is a fantastic community-powered polling app that tells you whether or not the film contains a post-credits scene. As a broad overview of the film, you get information about the cast, rating, and release date. In addition, the app allows you to search for and vote on movies, as well as whether or not they feature a scene during or after the credits.
Install the app from the Play Store on your phone and run it to see if a movie contains a post-credits sequence. The app prioritises new releases, so chances are you'll see the film on the first page. However, you can always use the top-right search bar to find a specific video.
Tap any movie tile to be sent to a page where you can see the trailer, receive the release date, and participate in two polls. It displays a timeline of sequences that occur before, during, and after the credits. You can even vote to improve the poll's consistency. Simply press the yes or no button on the bottom right of the screen for both the during and after credit scenes. To prevent spam votes, you can only vote once; if you try again, the counter will not increment.
Should I Wait is a good programme that allows the user to participate in poll creation, which I think is great. This, however, can be a terrible thing, as dislike mobs are reportedly a thing today. 'Should I Wait' is a free Android game that can be downloaded from the Google Play Store.
Another popular movie app that displays information about the post-credits scene is MediaStinger. This software outperforms 'Should I Wait,' as it provides information about movies, games, news, reviews, and trailers. You get the essential information about a film, such as the user rating, release date, and so on.
It provides more than just yes/no poll results; it also includes a brief description of the end-credit screen. Don't worry, you won't accidently come onto spoilers because the credit scene description is concealed behind a show more tag, and if you want to read more about the scene, you'll have to touch the '+' button.
It says whether or not you should stay for the post-credits scene at the bottom of the page. The users have recommended this poll for the film, and it clearly indicates that the credits are worth watching. You can also participate in polls and express your thoughts by hitting the yes or no button at the bottom.
MediaStinger is a free app that can be downloaded from both the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store.
So far, we've covered Android and iOS apps, but wouldn't it be great if we could check the post-credits scene right from the Apple Watch? The After Credits app displays a poll of films having End-credits. The app is accessible on iOS, and users can vote on whether or not the film gets a credits scene. It collects poll results from users and updates the film list, just as 'Should I Wait.' If you've seen the movie, you can vote to aid other viewers, and you can even contribute movie titles to the app if you can't locate one.
The nicest aspect about this app is that it's also compatible with Apple Watch. So you don't even need to pull out your phone to see if the present film includes a post-credits sequence or not?
After Credits is only available for iOS and costs $0.99 on the App Store.
These are three apps you may use to see if the next film you're going to see has a post-credits scene. Should I Wait is the most basic app, with polls depending on users and only a yes or no response. MediaStinger is a more complete software that provides a lot more information as well as a short summary of the credits scene. Should I Wait is similar to After Credits, but it's for iOS, and it has Apple Watch integration, which is fantastic. What are your thoughts on these apps? Would you use them the next time you go to see a movie? Let us know in the comments section below. Credits are being rolled.
