Geek Out!: Our favorite 'Easter eggs'

My favorite is in the first season of the TV Show LOST. In the episode 'Exodus Part II', Hurley is running through the airport to catch his flight, Oceanic 815, and runs past a girls soccer team whose Jersey numbers are 'The Numbers.' 4 8 15 16 23 42. It's so easy to miss, but so great when you catch it. This one in particular prompted me to pay very close attention to LOST, as this show contains a plethora of Easter eggs.

Valerie-
The subliminal Tyler Durden appearances in FIGHT CLUB are not DVD Easter Eggs.That footage was in the theatrical presentation of the film.

Some of my favorite easter eggs are not listed here. I love the talkative Grunts in Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 3.

On the negative side of things, are the vulgar easter eggs (if they can be called that) in the older 2D animated Disney movies. Admit it, you know what I'm talking about.

I like the "All by myself" song at the end of the Green Day Dookie album. You can find some videos online of different times it was performed on stage too.

Speaking of Harrison Ford flicks – Bladerunner has the Millenium Falcon in it – it is in one of the vehicles flying around in the city.

Halo 3 had some nice easter eggs; in one of the multiplayer levels (sand trap I think), if you activated the Spark mode, and flew up above the level, you eventually found these small little rainbow easter eggs– and if you watched them they shot lasers that set off explosives embedded in the sand.

One of my most memorable ones is from an old school PC game called "Conquests of Camelot" where you type "ham and jam and spam a lot" in a certain area, then the knights from Monty Python dance across the screen.

A cool easter egg on a CD is from an early version Better Than Ezra's "Friction Baby": the song "Mejor de Ezra" is before Track 1 (you have to start Track 1, and then track backwards). Other artists have done this as well.

Reading some of these posts, I think a discussion of what exactly constitutes an "easter egg". My understanding is that an ease egg is a dvd only feature, so, there goes all those awesome allusions many of are referring to (Raiders, Bladerunner, Disney, etc.). An easter egg is a 'hidden' feature of the dvd itself, often times bonus or extra materila, often of a funny or, let's face it, geeky nature. Yes, leaving a menu alone for five minutes and having something you've never seen before appear is an easter egg. Finding out you can use your menu arrow to access a never-before seen basket of goodies for your inner-geek is an easter egg. All that being said, I can't remember any. Ha! So it goes.

They worked in the Millenium Falcon in the fleet action against the Borg cube in Star Trek: First Contact. R2-D2 was slipped (somewhere) into the Star Trek remake/reboot/whatever. In Episode II there is an X-wing and a TIE fighter chasing each other in the traffic on Courscant. Also in II, one of those animals that Padme and Anakin are riding on Naboo is slipped into the chase sequence between Obi-Wan's starfighter and Slave I in orbit above Geonosis. In I think it was Episode I, you can see a group of E.T.'s in the Senate.

Peter Venkman is Garfield!

In the 1980's cartoon, the real ghostbusters, Lorenzo Music played the voice of Peter Venkman, he also voiced Garfield in one of his earlier cartoons.

Now, Bill Murray played Peter Venkman in the Ghostbuster movies, and later went on to voice Garfield in his latest movie adaptation.

So, in conculsion, I reiterate, Peter Venkman is Garfield!

UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, B, A, SELECT, START... NO SCHOOL LIKE OLD SCHOOL (bringing smiles to geeks everywhere)

AND DON'T FORGET COMPLIMENTS TO 'JUSTIN BAILEY'

for those who know – no explananation necessary,
for those who don't – no explanation possible

Original Playstation game, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night; put it into a regular (audio) CD player and play Track 2; you get a little bit of spoken dialogue by Alucard in which he emos out about it being a Playstation black disk, and not playable in a normal CD player, then a remix of the main theme.

I believe the video game, "Game of War" is actually supposed to be , "God of War." I found an easter egg in this story.

My favorite was in Microsoft Excel '95. I do not remember the combination, but it went something like this: Scroll to the 95th row, 95th collumn of a clean sheet, and type (don't remember exactly what). It would take you to a video animation of first person walk through a creepy dungeon twisting down stairs until is came to bottom. It was called Hall of Tortured Souls. Take that Microsoft! 🙂

My favorite is the cow level in Diablo II...pretty much everyone knew about it, but it was still cool.

Man, some editors seriously needed to read through this article. Fight Club? Really? "Game" of War? *sigh* Never heard about the statue thing, though, so I will need to try that out 🙂

I think my favorite recent Easter egg in a game was the Ryan/golf club one in BioShock 2... I almost fell over laughing when I realized it was also a trophy/achievement.

But there are plenty of video game eggs... and who can forget Hot Coffee?

In Blade Runner, the Millennium Falcon was used as part of a building. It is not flying around as AC says.

And that isn't an easter egg, it's an homage. Similar to the Firefly class ship that flys by in one of the opening scenes of Battlestar Galactica (new series), or the alien skull in the Predator ship in Predator II (which caught enough attention, it caused a cross-over).

In "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" you can see R2D2 hanging from the Mothership as it comes over Devil's Tower. It is immediately after Melinda Dillon's reaction shot. Next you see the Mothership rising behind her; R2D2 rotates by hanging from the edge of the ship.

Terminator 2: a real easter egg. while on Play Theatrical edition, press the down arrow 5 times on the remote. You will see "The future is not set" Enter the Judgment Day date (forgot it now, see the scene where The Terminator tells John and Sarah, how Judgment Day occurs). You will get a third cut of the movie. I am not totally sure the procedure, if it is incorrect, hopefully someone will provide the correct sequence.

One that I found was in the Battlestar Galactica mini series. When Laura was waiting to hear from the doctor, several ships fly by the window. One of them is a Firefly class ship. >.<

forget about easter eggs how about movie editing foul ups that make it through to the finished product. name some of those

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace has two good ones. In the junk yard, there is a ship from 2001 Space Odyssey, and then in the Senate scene, there is a group of E.T. aliens.

...and let us not forget Commander Keen's dopefish that has been regularly appearing as Easter eggs in video games since 1991.

In Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, when Optimus Prime is equipped with Jetfire's parts, you can see R2D2 (just a shadowy outline) flying onto him. I had to slow it down to see it.

On the Robin Williams Live on Broadway DVD, there are two hidden Easter eggs. One is a clip of every folio sound effect Robin does in his comedy act strung together. The second clip is a string of every F- word Robin used in that same act.

In the Mortal Kombat II game for the SNES, after you have played 500 matches in a row, you are whisked away to a "Challenge from the Past," which is a game of Pong.

Do people not realize what an Easter Egg really is?! Its usually a hidden icon or menu option you have to click or a code you have to enter to activate/access hidden features to the media you are viewing/playing.

Homages and cameos in movies are not Easter Eggs.

As for easter eggs, does anyone remember the Flight Simulator for Excel 97? Now that was a fun one:
Press F5, type X97:L97, press [Enter], [Tab], hold [Control] + [Tab] then click Chart Wizard.

Now that was a classic!

@ Killer Clown...

WOOT WOOT! Juggalo 4 life! MWCL

The egg that everyone has missed so far in Fight Club:
When Norton's character is e-mailing haiku about worker bees to his workmates, you briefly see a list of 11 names he's sending to.
Five of those names are in the end credits under production and art direction.

I do agree with all the ideas you've introduced to your post. They're really convincing and will definitely work. Still, the posts are very quick for starters. May you please prolong them a bit from next time? Thank you for the post.

Everyone was talking only about the detonation of the number of records that were being set by the Transformers movies(Transformers 2007, Revenge of the Fallen, and Dark of the Moon) right from United States to Malaysia and China. It was hard to believe that the Transformers had crossed the records of even epic movie by director James Cameron's the Titanic. Families went to the theaters in droves; the old generation – likely mothers and fathers by now – ushering the new generation in to see the favorite alien robots of their youth. Hasbro, the gigantic toy company that originated the Transformers, made record sales in the toys and merchandising that went along with the film, ensuring that everything came full-circle.-
