(The Millenium Falcon in ROTS is not really an easter egg because it's been explained by the EU in a book.) |

Revision as of 02:25, 1 November 2013
A virtual Easter egg is a hidden message or feature in an object such as a movie, book, CD, DVD, or computer program.
The term draws a parallel with the custom of the Easter egg hunt observed in western nations and many parts of Europe. The term is believed to originate in the movie Return of the Living Dead, where a military officer uses it as a code word for lost U.S. government containers of zombies created by a chemical spill.
Sometimes, Easter eggs can also refer to some 'hidden' brief cameo, like the appearance of a species with the appearance of the Children of the Green Planet and the Millennium Falcon in the prequel trilogy. Some, like the latter, are considered non-canon because they violate many aspects of Star Wars history. The numbers 1138, 327 and "I have a bad feeling about this", as well as name Tuckerizations can also be considered easter eggs.
Easter eggs in Star Wars movies
- Hip hop Yoda music video on the Revenge of the Sith DVD
- DVD Credits with bloopers on The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and the Original Trilogy Bonus Disc DVD's.
- Appearance of E.T. The Extra Terrestrial in The Phantom Menace.
