"Keep 'Em Up" presents our interpretation of Rocky meets Cheers. It is a story centered in an old neighborhood boxing club that seems frozen in time and is fueled by contrasting philosophies and past broken dreams. 🥊 PM for more info! #tvseries #dramedy #boxing

Last night my wife and I watched Titanic with the kids. I haven't seen it in probably 20 years, but remember the movie like the back of my hand. First of all, it's a truly incredible feat of filmmaking, to the day.  The 25 year old VFX actually hold up. The script is amazing, the acting is amazing. It's an inarguable great movie that deserves the place it's earned in cinematic history. And the kids loved it, too. But once thing hit me that I've been thinking about lately... When I was a kid, entranced by the magic of movies on a regular basis and at the movie theater any time a new one came out, I was in the habit of staying through the credits to the very end.  It's not something I always do anymore at home because the streamers are always trying to get you to watch the next thing, or kick you off if you can't press the right combination of buttons in less than a few seconds. It's kind of a lost practice. But I think we should bring it back. Here an internet-friendly list of 10 reasons why I think we should stay and watch the credits: 10. It gives us a few minutes to breathe and reflect on what we just watched. 9. There’s usually some awesome music to enjoy. 8. We can figure out the names of the actors and their roles without having to pick up our phones. (Old school!) 7. Some movies have some really sickly-designed end-title sequences that are mini-works of art on their own. 6. There might actually be some story left to come that we’ll miss if we leave the theater or platform. 5. Bloopers! 4. We get to see all the names of all the awesome songs and needle drops from the movie and who wrote and performed them, one of the best ways to discover new great music. 3. We get to muse with our friends over what the job of Best Boy actually is. 2. There’s always a chance the very last frames of the film are something like Ferris Buller breaking the 4th wall and telling us to go home. 1. Every single one of the names we see is a real person who spent weeks or months or years working on the thing we watched in a couple hours or less. They all poured their heart and soul into making this thing. I like being able to do a little energetic nod to them as I read their names, a quiet thank you through the ether for giving us the gift of this piece of movie magic. (Even when it’s a bad one, which happens to the best of us from time to time!)
