QR codes are not encoded urls, they are a way of encoding data. They can contain 2953 bytes. What they contain is irrelevant.
A film could technically have several QR codes that had all the credits in text in them.
This is true, but the practical use of QR codes is almost always to encode a URL that points at something hosted traditionally, similar to how NFTs can contain unique data on their own but most of the time are actually pointing to a file hosted somewhere else. And that somewhere else ~~could~~ ~~might~~ ~~probably~~ will eventually fail.
