Chances are that your DVDs contain a little extra in the bonus features department! Many discs contain additional hidden features, or Easter Eggs, buried away within the menu screens, often showing as a special icon highlight. They can reveal anything from an additional quick clip or gagreel, to a lengthy interview or entire section of further supplemental material! The name derives from the traditional hiding of gifts and treats that need searching for, just like these bonuses: some easy to spot and some sneaky and well hidden – hence the name Easter Eggs!
Finding the Beany And Cecil DVD Easter Egg:
Image Entertainment (January 25 2000), Region 1
As if the DVD were not packed enough, there’s some extra fun to be had on this very Special Edition. From the main menu, select the Characters’ section, which displays as a billboard with the character faces ready to be selected. Position the highlight on the upper right of the billboard and press the Up arrow key twice. This should highlight the “And Friends” icon. Press Enter and you’ll be rewarded by compliments from Beany and a slide show of candid stills of creator Bob Clampett alongside various big-name celebrities!
