Easter Eggs

You also used Find More ROMS in more than one video. Dunno if that's really an easter egg.

In my Jet Set Radio Project and Tornado Vasectomy tracks, I have single-frame flashes of humorous characters most people might recognize.

The last part of my first RPBP video had a bunch of Love Hina manga scans inserted in random order exactly on each "THRAKking" beat, making well over a hundred in total.

As all of them show up exactly for a single frame, I think literally noone noticed without me telling. Which only made the whole thing more funny to me

Though frankly, both of my RPBP vids are so full of stupid shit, anything in there could be an easter egg...

The REM MEP track has not so much an Easter egg as something that I threw in to entertain myself, not really expecting anybody to notice it. Maybe that qualifies.

It's not technically out yet, so there's no point explaining it. It's a lyric sync that was so extremely obvious, yet so rare that I felt absolutely compelled to use it ("when the hell are you going to be able to lyric-sync THAT again?") - but its extreme obviousness would wreck the video if it were used straightforwardly. So it's faded behind another shot as a random background pattern. But I came across the shot and I had to. Had to, had to, had to. No self-control at all.

It also has some lyric sync that I don't expect people to get unless they've seen the show ("a piano falls", "tossing out punchlines"), which isn't standard MEP procedure.

I don't expect people to watch my stuff frame by frame, so I normally don't do that sort of thing.

Can't really think of any...

All I have are references/rip offs to other amvs though.

DDR4 (though not by me

)

Self-Titled has some Beatles fandom-related Easter Eggs in it, but DW didn't believe me until I pointed out specific frames.

How many appearances do you make in the project? I think DW and I lost count at AWA. >_>

Enter The Dragon always makes me laugh because of that.

And Tien losing his trousers, of course.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I suppose that does count as an Easter Egg.

That's right, my and VegettoEX's DDR video from this year, Enter the Dragon, features a somewhat prominent Easter Egg of Kusoyaro and gambitt gettin' their grove on.... together!

That's right, it's hot quasi guy-on-guy action!
