    Chris Martin's music always sound dull and lifeless to me. Not surprised then that he's a ZOMBIE....

    My favourite one because it answers what all those people and villains do when they "disappear" in front of someone :P

    If we're including cameos, I love the "I loved you in Wall Street" scene in Hot Shots, from the interlapping monologues to the passing boats.

    The Easter Eggs in the oul VHS tapes were much better than the current DVD/Blu Ray crop imo.

    are these not more bloopers than easter eggs?

    My favorite Easter egg is in The avengers, when Tony Stark is talking to Bruce Banner in the HelliCarrier through the screens, you can see The Hulks reflection instead of Bruces.

    The pulp fiction reference at the end of Captain America Winter Soldier gave me a good chuckle

    it's impossible to say without spoilers tbh, so it's getting spoiler tagged
    Nick Fury's fake tombstone had "The path of the righteous man... Ezekiel 25:17" engraved on it. It's only on screen for a second, but I thought it was excellent

    In Cap 2: The Winter Soldier, Robert Redford opens his fridge and there's a jar of Newman's Own sauce looking out.

    What is this Easter Egg thing?

    Easter Eggs in films are basically insider jokes or a nod to something from the lore of a movie or character.

    For example theres something in Pixar Movies where all rooms or numbers to designate something seem to have the label A113. Many of the world’s best animators honed their craft at SoCal. Those that did took a digital graphics and character animation class in room A113 To pay homage to this fact many animators will include ‘A113′ in their work – look for it in everything from Disney to The Simpsons

    I remember there used to be hidden games within computer games, this is where Easter Eggs originated!

    Luke Skywalker mentions cell block 1138 at some point in Star Wars, a nod to a previous film of George Lucas', THX 1138.

    on a lot of dvd's and blu-rays you will find hidden easter eggs usually by entering key presses on your remote

    I know. It's quite subtle though and only on the screen for a second. Love it though! Every so often on a weekend the missus and I keep the curtains closed, get out some snacks, maybe order a pizza, and watch the Back to the Future trilogy in a single sitting. Nothing better! :D
