I went to see the latest Harry Potter film yesterday, and although its not really much of a puzzle, I thought the following question would make a nice little poser for those that have seen both films:

What does the end of 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets' have in common with 'Chicken Run'?

For bonus marks, name some other films with the same characteristic (I'm sure there must be plenty, although I don't know any offhand).

Having seen neither, I'll posit they end with a Copyright statement.

Ok, let me rephrase the question: What unusual feature does the end of 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets' have in common with 'Chicken Run'?

Mind you, your answer is surprisingly close to what I had in mind while being completely wrong.

Actually you can find the answer I was thinking of without watching the films if you think of the right magic Google search.

I'll have a guess. Suppose I'd better add a little

S

P

O

I

L

E

R

S

P

A

C

E

They both have additional 'footage' at the end of the movie after the credits?

I can't think of any others, either, but I'm also sure there must be plenty. Of course, I could be talking about a different characteristic.

That's the one I was thinking of. Another way of putting it might be that most of the audience walked out before the final scene!

Annoyingly (following the other answers posted to this thread) I can't actually remember whether the final footage comes before or after the copyright message.

FWIW there is a odd scene after (most) of the credits at the end of 'Airplane II', where, after announcing the forthcoming feature 'Airplane III', they cut to William Shatner who says 'That's exactly what they will be expecting.'

AFAIK there never was an 'Airplane III'

'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' After the credits, we are in Ferris' home, and he wanders past the room, does a double-take, and faces the camera. Says something to the effect, 'Get out of here! Don't you have homes to go to?!?'

Well, Pixar has a tradition of sticking extra stuff *in* the credits.

The movie 'Spider Man' threw in the theme from the cartoon series right at the end of the credits.

'Bill And Ted's Bogus Journey' had a lot of whacky extra stuff in the credits.
