Post your "easteregg" finds here: For those who aren't familiar with "eastereggs" when referring to DVDs, they're the neat little hidden things on your disks. You find them by playing around with the remote control on the menus and/or during the movie. Most of the time, there's a hidden button somewhere on the menu structure. For instance, I remember "The Matrix" had a white rabbit that popped up intermittently during the movie. If you pressed select on your dvd remote when you saw him, you viewed a "hidden" video file. I think it was something about how they did the special effects you just saw.
One of my all time favorite comedy movies Space Balls Ludicrous speed: Wait at the main menu until the astronaut or cow appear in the middle of the crosshairs. Start the movie at this point to get "ludicrous speed".
