But most of the time - as with "The Avengers," which has now grossed enough worldwide to be the fourth-biggest movie of all time - it's because there's still a little bit of movie left. More and more, those post-credit scenes are aimed directly at the geeks in the audience. For example, the villain who was pulling the strings the entire time in "The Avengers," is revealed halfway through the credits, but he would only be known to the hardcore Marvel Comics fans watching.
Read More. It was only the latest in a tradition of post-credit scenes -- often called "Easter eggs" or "stingers. Marvel Studios has completely changed the way we watch movies. These post-credit scenes stoke excitement for the next movie and tease how it might relate to the one you just saw. This even applies to non-superhero movies like Vice.
Some films even used the scenes to wrap up plots from the film, like the Pirates of the Caribbean movies in the s. As franchises became a staple of Hollywood filmmaking, some films would even run the trailer for the next movie after the film, like at the end of The Matrix Reloaded. But Marvel did leverage the post-credit scene as it never had been used before. That prompts Nick Fury Samuel L.
This is the first time we see Nick Fury and hear about S. Even before Marvel Studios began production on Iron Man , they planned to eventually film a movie that brought characters with solo films like Iron Man and Hulk together to fight one bad guy, as often happens in comic books. Marvel replaced Norton with Mark Ruffalo and stopped making Hulk solo films.
The studio would like you to pretend this movie does not exist. Not really, but it is further confirmation that an Avengers movie is going to happen. Remember, in that was a really big deal. Agent Phil Coulson Clark Gregg drives into the middle of the desert, gets out of his car and makes a phone call.
The camera then zooms in on the hammer of Thor Chris Hemsworth. Yes, in that it sets up the model for future Marvel post-credit scenes. The moment was filmed by Thor director Kenneth Branagh and directly teased the next movie in the universe. Fury seems to be none the wiser, as he leaves the mind-controlled scientist alone in the room with a very valuable object. Loki will return as the main villain in Avengers and an ancillary character in several future films. Not only does it hold immense power, but the Tesseract turns out to be an Infinity Stone — one of the stones that Thanos uses to destroy half of all life in the universe.
At the end of the first Captain America movie, Steve Rogers, who has been frozen since , wakes up in modern times. We see an alien credited as The Other inform a shadowy figure that the Avengers protected Earth from Loki and his alien army. The mysterious figure then turns and reveals himself to be Thanos, a purple alien played by Josh Brolin. He smiles. Thanos is the biggest of big bads. He will be the man — err, alien — behind the curtain in Guardians of the Galaxy and the featured villain in Avengers: Infinity War.
In the comics, Thanos collects Infinity Stones because he is in love with Death — yep, the physical manifestation of death — and wants to destroy the universe to impress her. Ultimately, Marvel Studios decided this storyline was too far-fetched for the films. The writers changed his motivation to killing half of all life in the universe for vaguely environmental reasons.
Not at all. Chris Evans had a beard at the time for the movie Snowpiercer , so he had to hide his face behind his hand. Tony Stark seems to be sharing his emotional problems with a therapist, but the camera cuts instead to a sleeping Bruce Banner. Like much of the plot of Iron Man 3 , this scene could not be less important to the larger arc of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Volstagg explains that the Aether is an Infinity Stone, and they cannot keep it on Asgard because another Infinity Stone, the Tesseract, is already there.
After audiences responded to the camaraderie of Ruffalo and Robert Downey Jr. Five to go. After-Credits Scene 2: The second post-credits scene in Thor: The Dark World comes after the end credits, and is a weird scene in that it resolves a major plot point from the movie.
At the end of the film, after defeating Malekith on Earth with the help of Jane and other friendlies, Thor departs for Asgard again to deal with the Aether.
So in this post-credits scene, Jane and Co. This scene is a major exposition set-up for Age of Ultron. It shows that while Captain America may have brought Hydra down publicly, there are still pockets existing throughout the world. There, he confronts an exhibit dedicated to himself, Bucky Barnes, hinting that perhaps The Winter Soldier himself may be able to overcome the mind-control experiments and reclaim his past. This ultimately is a set up for Captain America: Civil War , which would be a few films down the line.
Thus far these are just fun nods and have not been followed up on in future films. Once one collects all six Infinity Stones, one puts them into this Gauntlet, wears it, and then wields unspeakable power. So this scene is an allusion to the fact that Thanos has been hunting Infinity Stones, using baddies like Ronan or Loki to do his bidding, but is now fed up and will go after the Stones himself. He will, though.
He promises. After-Credits Scene 1: The mid-credits scene in Doctor Strange is another tease for a future film, once again just lifting a clip from said film. Seeing this as an opportunity to get Thor and Loki off Earth as quickly as possible, Doctor Strange acquiesces.
This sets up Baron Mordo as a villain for a potential Doctor Strange 2. Mordo is of course a villain in the comics, but this first movie introduces him as a friendly face to Stephen Strange.
When he discovers the Ancient One has been using magic from Dormammu, however, Mordo is disgusted and this post-credits scene confirms has set him on a violent quest for justice.
We see in this scene that he has a long way to go before getting that arrow under control, but the promise is real. After-Credits Scene 2: The second scene is one of the most substantial, as we see Sylvester Stallone 's Stakar Ogard reuniting with his old crew.
The characters reunite for Yondu's funeral, and Stallone nods here to the potential for them teaming back up. Feige and Gunn have said there's definitely a possibility of this team coming back into the MCU in a bigger way, and it should be noted that these characters served as the original Guardians of the Galaxy when the comic first began. After-Credits Scene 3: The third scene shows us Adolescent Groot, as Chris Pratt 's Peter Quill walks into Groot's room and complains about how dirty it is, essentially treating him as his teenage son.
So what is this blue box then? Originally it was a device created by a terrorist group called A. It was later discovered that the Cosmic Cube is a sentient being with limitless power, because Marvel is badass enough to say screw storyline continuity.
You would also know that Dr. Doom built a time machine to recapture the Cosmic Cube from the ocean floor, where Red Skull a. Butterfingers dropped it in a battle against Captain America.
