When buying, or collecting, cinema tickets from automated machines you (optionally) type in the names of each of the ticket holders. As the credits roll by at the end of the film the last category is dropped in (not sure how, possibly a second projector comes into play) showing the names
eg
Costumes
by
Stunts by
Watched by (in order of appearance)

Yeah. I hope that will make more people read the remaining credits and realize they have to admire everyone behind the scenes. |
|
| |
But I can imagine all sorts of privacy issues coming into play ;-) |
|
| |
I often watch for my name to come up in the credits... but
alas it never does + |

Why ? It's optional. You don't even have to put your full name, maybe just "Kenny and Linda". Why not ? [+] |
|
| |
Hadn't noticed that. Any ways, I hope it will be done
only after the ID is confirmed. |
|

I think it would be funny if the producer of a film that
bombed put this at the end of the credits on the DVD
release version. |

"...Best boy: Joe Smith
Gaffer: Doug Brown |
|

And our special thanks to those who purchased tickets to
view this in the theater: Clara Williams, Steve Bronstine,
Craig Evans...." |

List a couple of hundred names. Like in this movie I saw
where one guys says "I bought your book." and the other
says "That was you eh?" or something like that. |
|

[+] Would this 5 seconds count against your 15 Minutes of
fame. |

Kind of baked, in a slightly different way, by Peter jackson with the extended DVD versions of Lord of the Rings. At the end of the credits there is a list, in aphabetical order, of all the people who signed up to the LoTR website before the film's theatrical release. Which was pretty cool of him. |

Some people put a fair amount of effort to get their names up on the screen, including finishing contracts and altering wedding plans. |
|
| |
I'd rather credits be limited to people who spent at least three months on a project, even if this cuts out the actors themselves. |

$300 for a marriage proposal |

Double that price for the same requests in subtitles or
written remarks during a movie. |
|
| |
Wouldn't someone just throw in "Myra Hindley" or
"Robert William Fisher" once
in a while to see what happened? |
|
| |
Would this be copyrighted? Could you lose the movie rights to your name or group and have to find another? |

I went to a play (well, more of a “theatrical art
performance”) once where they asked everyone to write
the
name of someone who inspired them on a slip of paper and
place it in a box near each seat. At the end of the
performance they rolled some “credits”, which included
every name written down. Somehow they had snuck into
the boxes during the one-act performance, stolen the slips,
and typed up all the names in the span of 90 minutes or so.
It was actually kind of neat. |

Had my name on a couple of movies in the songwriting credits and thought it was pretty cool, but just having your name up there for buying a ticket doesn't seem super exciting. |
