Does ‘Superman' Have Mid Or Post-Credits Scenes? Secret Endings Explained
Superman flies into movie theaters around the world this weekend beginning with Thursday evening previews. I was able to catch the film a couple days early thanks to a partnership between Amazon Prime and Fandango. You can read my review of James Gunn's first DCU film right here.
Admittedly, I was not particularly impressed by Superman. It felt strangely generic for a movie that needed to be a soaring triumph. It also felt too much like Gunn's other superhero movies, but with less heart and fewer memorable characters. I maintain that Gunn would be the perfect director for a Justice Gang movie where his sense of humor and quirky direction would shine – but someone else should have taken the director's chair for Superman.
In any case, the question you're here for today is whether or not the movie has end-credits scenes. The answer: Yes. Two, in fact. There's one brief mid-credits scene and one slightly longer post-credits scene. Before I explain what happens in them, let me answer your next question: Are they worth sticking around for?
Okay, that's actually difficult to answer. If you loved the movie, by all means stick around. The mid-credits scene is very adorable and the post-credits scene is funny. If you didn't love the movie, there's nothing in either scene that sets up a future movie. The scene that does that takes place at the end of the movie just before the credits. Okay, onto spoiler territory.
The mid-credits scene is more of a moment. You may have seen this picture already:
Superman and Krypto
Well, this is the mid-credits scene except instead of sitting next to each other on the moon, Krypto is giving Superman a big hug. It's, as I said, adorable. It also makes me wish this entire movie had actually been Superman & Krypto, a story about a man trying to get his dog back without all the other overstuffed plot mechanics.
The post-credits scene (spoilers again) takes place in Metropolis after the cataclysmic events partly destroy the city. Superman is standing next to Mister Terrific looking at building that still has a crack running through it, and Superman makes a joke about how it's not quite perfect. Mister Terrific, who is not a humorous man but is very funny because of it, gets very huffy over Superman's jibes and storms off. It's a bit longer than the mid-credits scene, but that's all it is. I think the Supergirl cameo would have fit better here.
And that's all you need to know about the end-credits scenes in Superman! I hope you enjoy the movie more than I did.

Colorado movie car museum to find new home, auction dozens of cars, as apartments replace building
A popular movie car museum in the Denver metro area is closing its doors temporarily after this weekend, as the building will be demolished and hundreds of apartments, and possibly a hotel, will replace the space. Now, dozens of cars need to be auctioned off while the owner is working to find a new home. Rodz and Bodz Car Museum in Englewood keeps up to 100 cars on display at all times, with more than 180 cars in a rotating collection. Many of the cars are replicas or vehicles seen on the big screen. "We have cars that are screen-used too, like cars that have been driven by Jim Carrey. We have Justin Timberlake in the In Time challenger and just so many iconic pieces in here," said museum owner Zack Loffert. Loffert opened the first location during COVID at Colorado Mills Mall, then moved the museum to Greeley for a short stint before opening the location in Englewood last October. "Then two months after, they announced the apartments and the hotel," said Loffert. In a statement to CBS Colorado, the City says the developer made the decision to redevelop the shopping center in part due to increased demand for residential units in Englewood and throughout the Denver metro area. The City's approval for zoning allows for 300 apartment units, a parking structure and possibly a hotel. "Moving this museum, this will be the third time in a year and a half, so it's, it's one of those things, like, we don't want to do it again unless it's the final home," said Loffert. "It's one of those things that's kind of pushed us to say, 'Okay, no more leasing. We're going to buy our own building, so that way we don't have to do this anymore.'" An auction this month will help pay for a new home. Sixty cars and trucks will be auctioned off, with 460 total items including porcelain signs and gas pumps. "Herbie the Love Bug, you can go buy Herbie this month and drive it to work on Monday," said Loffert. "It's all the emotions, because they are, they're all my babies, and they all have a story." While the city says there is no estimated timeline of when the building will be demolished, Loffert is working to find a permanent, bigger and better home for the museum. "It's going to be a fully immersive movie set museum experience. So, each section you go to will be its own movie set. It's just like Hollywood, and it's going to be very, very cool," said Loffert. The last day the museum will be open is Sunday, August 3, with the museum closing at 6 p.m. The auction is happening on August 22 and 23. Loffert said he's interested in reopening along the 470 loop and staying centrally located due to the rental car company he also owns. You can find more information about Rodz and Bodz Museum or the auction itself here.

"I've Never Been Able To Erase It From My Mind": People Are Sharing The One Movie Ending That Will Stay With Them Forever, And This Is A Very Solid List
One of the most challenging things to do is make a good ending to a movie. So when the ending of a film sticks its landing, it makes sense why it will stay with someone forever. So when Reddit user Elegant-Gene9433 asked the r/Cinema community: "What's one movie ending that will stay with you forever?" so many people shared their favorites. Here's what they said below: 1."Seven. 'What's in the box!?'" 2."Planet of the Apes. I was 6 years old when I saw this. I've never been able to erase it from my mind. Absolute cinema." 3."The ending of Cloverfield (2008) was extremely memorable… in that everyone in the theater was like 'that's the ending?'" 4."The Thing (1982). Favorite ending of any movie." 5."Ending of The Mist." 6."Cast Away." 7."Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)" 8."The Inception ending still has me wondering if I'm in a dream or not." 9."Oldboy is messed up. The main character's eyes and facial expressions in the final sequence hint that, despite the hypnosis, he still remembers the thing he chose to forget." 10."The ending of the Rebuild of Evangelion had me cheering and tearing up at the same time. It was 20 years in the making. An anime series that was cancelled due to budget cuts and didn't get the ending it deserved. A decent attempt to close the storyline with a movie. And then a whole focused retelling of the four movies. Those four movies are self-contained and amazing. But if you watched the previous iterations, it's even more satisfying." 11."Clue because I'm old enough to have seen it in the theater when different parts of the country got different endings." 12."The Departed. I did not expect that ending." 13."Uncut Gems." 14."Train to Busan. Tears streaming down my face every single time." 15."The Shawshank Redemption. Got chills just thinking about it." 16."I don't think I'll ever forget the ending of La Haine until the punchline happens." 17."Saw (2004). The collective gasp of myself and the entire theatre at the end was worth the movie ticket price. Never forget that." Is there an ending to a movie that you will never forget?
