End Credits in Film

The credits that roll at the end of a film are crucial for more than one reason

Obviously, there is the acknowledgment of every hand and mind that went into the project, but

There's also the allowance to wind down, to take in what you've just watched; even if you've seen it a hundred times, it's part of watching the film

And of course the score/soundtrack. The music chosen for the end credits is very intentional, even in many movies made today

It doesn't matter that some movies have more disposable end credit tracks

The point is that there is value in the end credit for even more reasons than I listed here

I bring all of this up because I've encountered - what is for me - a new issue with streaming movies. Not only do they include ad break style fade-to-blacks even when you're not stuck with ads during your viewing (I always keep the remote handy to mute the ads when they come up and don't even glance at the screen because fuck ads), but now I find that some services play the end credits at breakneck speed, also cutting off the music prematurely. So not only can I not use the music and energy to wind down and absorb my experience, but I can't read and appreciate (and easily look into more should I want to know more of their work whatever their task) the many people who made the film.

A lot of people say the art of film is dying. I couldn't disagree more. I lived through the sludge that the 90s and -shudder- the 00s gave us, and so much of what I'm actually watching today is fucking incredible. The ability for smaller creators - and creators from almost any country - to put out next-level work available at my fingertips is unprecedented on every conceivable level. It's the services that largely make these films available that are doing their damnedest to make these experiences as expedited and protracted as possible.

Remove our awareness of what's going on around us and we are that much more malleable, that much more suggestible to blind purchasing, binge watching, and other obnoxious tactics that gain billionaires more money, and leave us as the scapegoats, the ones to blame for our "shorter attention spans" and our "fickle" manner of consuming media.

rook falling asleep on the red couch in the lighthouse dining room while lucanis is making dinner....... they were helping out by keeping him company and peeling and chopping potatoes for a while there but then the potatoes are done and the room is so safe and warm and smells like coffee and good food and lucanis is trying to explain something to spite and his voice is low and soft and good to listen to and rook's eyes only slip closed for a moment. they'll get up to save the world again or whatever in a second just. one moment. while the world is warm and kind. and then they're being shaken gently awake an hour later because it's time to eat and everyone's starting to drift hopefully dinner-wards

GOD…actually thinking about it again, it’s absolutely insane how well Rye is characterized considering how little screen time he gets like they really let you get to know him even though he’s not there so you’re in a similar position to the rest of the Gerhardts without having to spend too much time dragging out his screen time. All the things they tell you about him in the scenes he’s not present for match up so well with his demeanor from his limited screen time. Just…when you combine great writing with great acting…wow. ​Also he’s kind of a false protagonist for the first episode too so him dying feels even more impactful so they illustrate how important his death is even before they show you the knock on effects of it. Incredible.

Lief: "Yeah, kid. Whatever. I dunno who you take me for at all, but I'm not gonna hurt anyone, ok? Relax."

Being more interested in speaking with Dravena in comparison, he'd wave off Rye with a somewhat agitated tone of voice without even bothering to look at her again.

Lief: "As for you. Deino girl. I suppose for your sake, if that aura thing is really true, I'll keep this a little short... but no. That dream thing really wasn't a joke."

[ ID: A grayscale drawing of Lief, a hybrid of Sylveon and Ribombee, with a mono-color background. He is shown from the neck up, with his face slightly angled away from the viewer towards the left. He looks puzzled, or curious. His left eyebrow is noticeably raised, while his right eyelid is lowered somewhat. He is frowning visibly. An angular question mark is floating next to his head at the left. End ID ]

Lief: "I wouldn't blame you for thinking that, though. I mean, imagine dreaming about random people you've never met, involving a person you have met only once-"

[ ID: A grayscale drawing of Lief similar to the previous image, but with a different expression. He appears annoyed. Both eyes are narrowed. His mouth is open, as if in the midst of a tangent. End ID ]

Lief: "-and the person in question became the very thing I hate about royals... and they tried to kill me, I guess."

At the mention of Destino, he became very on edge. His tail flicked hard, and a berry was knocked loosed to the floor. He grumbled under his breath, crossing his arms and looking away from the two with even narrower eyes.

Lief: "They better stay the hell away from me, I'll tell you that. I don't know what any of that meant. And I don't want to fucking find out."

a collection of early game ingellvar moments that made me go '...oh. oh rook LOVES loves the grand necropolis huh' with devastating force in my first playthough (+ one bonus lucanis being -- perhaps not quite convinced because his delivery makes me so happy and I made this for me. every day I'm so incredibly glad you're here even if you maybe aren't so much yet lucanis)
