Watch the end title sequence from The Avengers.
And cheer when you see "A Joss Whedon film" come up on screen.

And I think part of it is that Marvel movie adaptations have well trained audiences to finally sit through credits.
edit: yeah, and I dig this version. While I figured it was mostly CGI given the way the camera moves, I thought at least some of those assets had to have been practical.

In that moment I was proud and no longer felt like a minority.
It was also fun to hear other people also talking about the Whedon cameos, trying to figure out who Alexis had played, etc.

Was so proud for these credits. Joss Whedon writ so many times. Gorgeous detail, majestic camera pans (can a camera POV be that...majestic? Hmm.)
Great fangirl moment. There was goosey flesh. There may have even been tears of joy.

I realize nobody's maligning him, just want to make sure nobody gets the wrong idea from putting his name so close to that of the Kuzuis, which seems like a much more clear-cut case of taking credit for work that's not yours. Penn's credit seems pretty clearly to be a Guild issue, so far as I can tell.

I saw it the second showing of opening day and it was a pretty packed theatre, not bad for a weekday lunchtime. Everyone stayed right through the credits, which is pretty much unheard of, only to be disappointed by no end of credits scene.
I also want a Hulk grr arrgh.

But yeah, mostly I just meant it seems like James Bond films are particularly like the cold opening of TV shows where there's a bit of a prologue before segueing into the title sequence and rest of the film.
As for the "story by" credit, I think Marvel had already at least pretty clearly established their desires for the film's overall structure. Gathering the team, team conflicting, action sequence, the team coming together, big action sequence/aliens.
I think I read an interview where some screenwriter kind of complained about the nature of how in determining who gets a credit they often pay more attention to the overall structure than necessarily the details like characters/dialogue.
I was sort of lead to believe from initial reports that when people speak of Zak Penn's involvement they meant he was co-credited for the screenplay.
