At the very end of the credits and just before we see the text “A Steven Spielberg Film”; the musical notes change to a abbreviated and modified version of the classic theme from “Close Encounters of the Third Kind“.
Is this stinger worth waiting around for?

I’m not so sure about the musical stinger. Four notes, but in a different key and tempo – I think tying that with Close Encounters is a bit of a reach.
I know it’s a weak one, but I listened to it a couple times and I can hear it. Maybe it’s wishful thinking? I didn’t even know about the notes before reading about it online. IMDb mentions it for one. But, like I said…kinda weak.
Having watched the movie a lot and listened the soundtrack to it much more than I watched, I have to agree that you’re only hearing what you want to hear.
It’s not a modified theme of Close Encounters.
We can hear a faster tempo of this theme throughout the film. You can hear it much more lively in some action sequences. When they’re escaping a velociraptor through the upper ceiling of the offices, you can prominently hear just seconds before the velociraptor peeks his head through the ceiling.
Also, Close Encounters is only 5 notes, not 4. To omit one entire note is not “abbreviating”.
The similarity, is just that: a similarity.
James Horner is known to largely “rip off” his own music for more than a few decades.
I have to agree with everyone else that is simply not a musical stinger.
