Quora's compelling question

What movies have you seen where the audience applauded afterwards?

Answer by Korey Daniel:-

I just finished watching Justice League and at the end some people if not the whole theater room started clapping because it was a good movie and/or the people liked it and started clapping because of it. They started clapping again at the after credit scene when Deathstroke popped up and I liked his voice when his mask on and I liked when they mentioned the Legion of Doom indirectly.

Edit: I saw Star Wars: The Last Jedi Thursday using Dolby Cinema and people were clapping at different parts and different times of the movie.

Edit: I was watching Black Panther movie on Dolby Cinema and people clapped at the end of the movie and some people clapped during the mid-credits scene. They also clapped when Klaw used his sonic weapon on the car and Black Panther sister slid on the concrete while on the driver side still holding the wheel and again when the rhino was charging and the general of the Special forces stepped in front of the rhino and it licked the general face. They clapped, scream and woop when Bucky Barnes appeared.

Edit: People laughed at the Deadpool 2 movie commercial where Deadpool said it's not like we are trying to remove a mustache. The Deadpool 2 joked about Infinity War where Deadpool said you look a lot taller in Infinity War but never said Infinity War because cable interrupted him by saying shut up when Deadpool said in.

Edit: I was watching Pacific Rim: Uprising and no one clapped. There was a twist in the movie that I didn't expect.

Update Edit: I was going to watch Ready Player One on Thursday a day before opening day until I found out yesterday that they pushed back the date from March 30 to March 29 which mean I missed the movie time where it was going to be pack fulled of people aka 7:00 PM yesterday night so I'm going today but from what I see on the website is that only 4 people not counting myself is going to be there so that means you may never read this answer and see who clapped for what on Ready Player One meaning you may have to see another answer on this question for that.

Answer by Sarhad Chowdhary:-

This has happened thrice.

The first time I got to know that there can be something as a post-movie ‘applausement’ ceremony, the film was - The Dark Knight Rises (2012).

The second time it happened, was after Interstellar (2014).

The third time, it was Dunkirk (2017).

Yup. Every time I've watched a Nolan film, the audience has applauded, and after the movie. And I guess there's a simple, psychological reason to that.

The name of the movie is shown after the film.

Then the next frame reads - “Directed by Christopher Nolan” or “A film by Christopher Nolan” in the simplest of fonts, against a simple, dark background. Not too much of visual noise. Simple. Minimal.

Now combine this with Zimmer's mesmerizing scores. There's kind of a momentary dip before the end credits start.

Also, if you may have noticed, there's always a continuous, conclusive monologue by one of the protagonists (in TDKR it was the butler, in Interstellar, it was old Murph, and in Dunkirk, it was the young soldier) which compels the audience to pay a few extra seconds in appreciation of what they watched in the past couple of hours. Maybe.
