15 Movie Easter Eggs That You Probably Missed When Watching The Movie The First Time

If you love movies and television shows, then you probably already know what Easter eggs are. However, if you don't, we will explain it to you.

Easter eggs are usually hidden references to other movies. Disney is notorious for doing this, and so most people like to scope out the Easter eggs during Disney movies, but there can actually be Easter eggs in any movie or television show.

These Easter eggs are usually small references, whether they are posted in the background, on the same carpet as another movie, or even a line that references the movie. Easter eggs are fun to find because they show that everyone in the film industry works together and supports each other for the most part.

We've gathered 15 awesome Easter eggs that you probably missed when viewing the movie the first time. Movies and television shows are already pretty entertaining, but we wouldn't want to miss out on another form of entertainment.

This will probably encourage you to watch closely and pay closer attention when you watch movies, just to see if you can spot an Easter egg before articles like this one come out to show you what you missed.
