so you agree it should be showed after?

so many people say this as if it is a sufficient rebuke of the whole point. OP agrees with you - the point is show it after.

I only pick on you because many people responded but at one time HN had people with critical reasoning skills reading

As long as HN keeps people with reading skills at all...

The GP directly argued against the blog post, and in favor of showing the extras before the movie, because "majority of Re-release audiences have seen the movie before and don't want to sit through the credits for extras".

(I happen to disagree with the argument on the basis of "who on Earth cares about extras anyway", but still, GP correctly made a coherent point.)

I was making an argument for before. If 90% of customers want it before so they dont have to sit through credits, it is very understandable that it is shown before.

That said, I have no clue what the actual percentage is. Maybe someone has A/B tested this

i know - i was pointing out that your argument actually didn't lend itself either way and can just as easily mean the opposite.
