Napoleon Dynamite - scene after credits

Saw Napoleon Dynamite for the first time last night. I think it’s a good, quirky movie. Doesn’t need an overwrought love story or big fancy explosions to be interesting.

However, I almost missed the wedding scene after the credits…has anyone missed that scene entirely?

Anybody who saw the movie early in its theater run missed it, as it was added later as a kind-of incentive to see it again.

The wedding scene originally wasn’t in the movie. It was added later after the film became a success (as far as indie films go). There was an interesting article in USA Today at the time commenting on how Fox doing stuff to encourage repeat viewings, such as adding this scene and giving goodies to viewers who had scene the film muliple times (a tube of ChapStick® inscribed “but my lips hurt real bad,” etc.).
