I've always loved end title sequences. It's a film's way of saying, 'I hope you had as much fun watching the film as we had making it.'
So here are 11 of my favourite end title sequences.

Cannonball Run (1981) is the daddy of them all

1⃣
My Favourite End Title Sequences
Rush Hour (1998)
Jackie Chan was in Cannonball Run, and I always got the impression he loved the end titles of Cannonball so much that he spent the rest of his career carrying on the tradition in his own movies

#MovieEndCredits
2⃣
My Favourite End Title Sequences
Predator (1988)
This sequence always cracks me up. There's something hilarious about watching Arnie and the gang, who you've just seen ripped to bloody shreds, smiling like they're guest stars on The Love Boat.

#MovieEndCredits
3⃣
My Favourite End Title Sequences
The Hangover (2009)
The film is about trying to piece together the events of the previous drunken night. At the very end, they discover a camera that documented the whole thing, the photos play over the end credits. Genius.

#MovieEndCredits
4⃣
My Favourite End Title Sequences
Tropic Thunder (2008)
This might just be Tom Cruise's greatest moment in cinema history. Who knew he could move like this? This sequence is strangely hypnotic.

#MovieEndCredits
5⃣
My Favourite End Title Sequences
There's Something About Mary (1998)
Think about this, they had to stop most of the scenes to sing Build Me Up Buttercup, knowing this would be the end sequence. That's special

#MovieEndCredits
6⃣
My Favourite End Title Sequences
Liar, Liar (1998)
There must be so much footage of Jim Carrey being Jim Carrey in every movie that he's in. When he's $20 million per film, you have to squeeze every drop. These outtakes are just getting your money's worth

#MovieEndCredits
7⃣
My Favourite End Title Sequences
Con Air (1998)
God, I love this film. This is just another sequence that puts a big stupid smile on my face. I'm not sure i could love this movie more.

#MovieEndCredits
8⃣
My Favourite End Title Sequences
Toy Story 3 (1998)
After traumatising you by watching Andy give all the toys away we were treated with this end title sequence, which is worth it alone to see Buzz Lightyear and Jessie dancing
This was supposed to be goodbye

#MovieEndCredits
9⃣
My Favourite End Title Sequences
Deadpool 2 (2018)
Deadpool finds a time travel device, he goes back to put right what once went wrong. In this case, Ryan Reynolds wipes out his bad career choices. Oh, and kills Hitler as a baby
'You're welcome, Canada.'

#MovieEndCredits
🔟
My Favourite End Title Sequences
The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension (1984)
This is one of the greatest endings to a film in the history of ever.
And a perfect way to end my list. Enjoy!

The Thing was released OTD in 1982, so here are 10 reasons why I love The Thing

A Thread

#1 The Opening Titles
I've always been fascinated by this burning opening title sequence. It was created by Peter Kuran with the help of a fish tank, a trash bag and a match. Simples.
#2 'Norweigian, Mac'

John Carpenter gave you the entire plot in the first scene, if you happen to speak Norwegian.
The man shooting at the dog says, 'Get the hell outta there. That’s not a dog, it’s some sort of thing! It’s imitating a dog, it isn’t real! Get away, you idiots!'
#3 Morricone

Ennio Morricone's score delivers a musical version of building dread. From the opening couple of chords to the very end, it's a musical score that suggests this isn't gonna end well, and it won't get any better than this.

10 Reasons Why I Love Beverly Hills Cop (1984)

A Thread

1. The First scene.

The opening truck chase combines action and comedy set to a great soundtrack. It's literally the film you're about to watch in one scene.

2. Casual Swearing

I was 13 when I saw BHC and I'd never heard casual swearing before. Listening to Eddie Murphy and Gil Hill (Inspector Todd) throwing F-bombs around was like hearing Shakespeare for the first time.

3. The Soundtrack

Patti LaBelle's Stir It Up makes this sequence iconic. And Harold Faltermeyer's electronic score is instantly recognisable. It all works. The music in BHC is one of the characters.
