Ringing in a New Record

onering.jpg

A new record has been set by The Lord Of The Rings: The Return of the King....for how long the final credits roll.

Back in 1922, the film Nosferatu credited 11 cast members in 1 minute and 35 seconds.

Star Wars credited 143 people. The Matrix listed 151. The Two Towers credited 559 names, and by the time Matrix: Revolutions rolled around, there were 701 people on the credits. The credits for Titanic lasted all of 7 minutes.

But the final installment of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic beats them all....at a whopping 9 minutes and 33 seconds.

Thanks for the comment on navigation, it's a good point, and we'll see if we can do something about it soon.
