Easter eggs (or 'When layout people get bored')

[Skytteflickan88]

Many of the easter eggs/hidden features on the DVD discs aren't mentioned on the back of the DVDboxsets or in the sell information or anywhere. Pretty dumb from a sellers point of view, since customers might actually want to buy the discs more if they know about the features.

Me and another fan has been able to make this list of features, but there's probably a few we've missed. Maybe a few don't even exist on all DVDboxsets.

Anyone wanna help fill in the list?

Season 6 features

*Easter Egg - On disc two select the episode "Once More With Feeling." Got to Language Selection and press enter. In the menu highlight "English for the hearing-impaired." Press the left arrow button and the initial B will be highlighted. Press enter and you will see the cast signing.

*Easter Egg - Repeat the above instructions on disc five with the episode "Normal Again" to see the text that says there is a call sheet that is computer downloadable.

*Easter Egg - Insert Disk 6 of the Buffy Season 7 DVD set. Go to the Special Features menu, then to the Featurettes menu. Highlight "The Last Sundown," then go left. The Buffy logo "B" will appear. Click on that, and you'll get a quick montage of highlights from the entire series, beginning to end.

*"On the fifth disc select the episode 'Normal Again' and then go to the 'Language Selection.' Highlight 'English for the hearing-impaired' and then press the 'Left'. You will now see a sign saying that there is a 'Computer Download' available for the episode call sheet"

*(this could be on the sixth disc of season 5, but the website I found the info on said season 6)
"There's a 36 second montage of footage from the entire series on Disc 6, called "The Gift". Starts slowly then builds to blinding speed. There's actually a lot there so get ready with the slow motion button. Here's how to access it;
Insert Disc 6 and enter the Special Features area.
Select Featurettes and press Enter to get into that menu.
Select any of the featurettes and press the left arrow button to highlight Buffy's signature "B".
Press Enter and away you go but hold on tight as it's a fast ride."

*"Insert disc two. Go to Once more with feeling. Go to language menu. Highlight resume episode and press up to highlight a B. Press enter. Here you will find a little something about an autograph signing for once more with feeling episode.

Also next insert disc 4. Go to Doublemeat Palace. Go to language menu. Highlight resume episode and press up to highlight a B. press enter to find out how to access a call sheet for the episode normal again."

Season 7

*"Insert Disk 6 of the Buffy Season 7 DVD set. Go to the Special Features menu, then to the Featurettes menu. Highlight "The Last Sundown," then go left. The Buffy logo "B" will appear. Click on that, and you'll get a quick montage of highlights from the entire series, beginning to end."

*(doesn't say which disc, maybe 3 or 6)
"1. Opening screen go to Special features and press enter.
2. Next screen go to featurettes and press enter.
3. Press left and a large B will appear, Press enter.

A quick montage of scenes mostly featuring heroes and villains from the series will be shown."


(I might have mentioned a feature or two twice, sorry)

I have never bothered to look for the easter eggs before but thanks now i know where to look, so as soon as i get up tomorrow i will be looking through my disks for them 🙂

I dont think it mentions the Easter egg on Firefly but there is one. A short Joss thing. Also one on Angel season one i dont thinks on the box!

 

[Skytteflickan88]

Oh crap. That means there's 6 more seasons(angel 5, firefly 1) I have to look through. Possibly the Serenity DVD too.

This makes me so frustrated.

Do they think we have endless amounts of times to press every button on the remote in zillions of combinations?

This is actually on the season 7 DVDs, not 5 or 6. I forget what disk, but it's definately on there and very cool.

I had also found the Once More With Feeling signing and the Normal Again call sheet.


Edit: The montage you were talking about, left of The Last Sundown on season 7 is actually the one mentioned above, which goes up to the episode The Gift. Unfortunately, it doesn't show the whole series. =/

Also, I couldn't find the heros and villains montage you mentioned so it must be a different region from the above.

Hope I helped. 🙂

 

[Skytteflickan88]

Thanks. I'll ahve to look for the montage to see if I have it myself. Do you have region 2?

I wrote The Gift montage several times, one in the place you mentioned(the right place). I wonder it's on several DVDs.

I'm going to check through all the discs to see if I can fine more, and update the list with a coplete version(and fix my list which apparently had flaws). Soon done with season 7. Circling your mouse over and over again to find the good place, only sounds fun 😉
