Toy Story 2 is worth watching through the credits, as is just about every Jackie Chan movie.
And yeah, I usually stick around. :)
I usually can't stand sitting through the credits but have several friends who insist on it.
I always sit through the credits. I believe its mostly because I was trained in theatre, and think that all those "backstage" people deserve to have me see their name. I also know what most of the wierd things (like gaffers and greensmen) are, so I think it is more interesting to me.
I believe in staying and watching the movie til the screen goes blank because it is important that credit is given to the collabrative effort that is a motion picture. It is just a matter of respect in my opinion
i totally sit through the credits...not only because i generally want to find something out (who sings that song? or where did i see that person before?) i also think it's a good time to reflect on the experience--even if it's in a foreign language.
to add to your list, though--don't forget Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
I always stay through the credits and glare at those who leave early. It's kind of a respect thing for those who worked so hard on the movie. I have to admit, though, I don't read them all. Toy Story 1 had good credits too, btw. And Grumpy/Grumpier old men. (The penguin with all the lewd comments...) And Roger Rabbit had bloopers. The old Burt Reynolds and Dom Delouise movies had bloopers too, I think.
