Ok, I've heard reference to these "eggs" before. What are they???
TIS TIS, Easter Eggs are little things on dvds that are hidden. They will give you things like dvd credits, extra footage, trailers, etc... Here's some for The Godfather collection...
On the 5th disc the extra features go to "set up " & press right on the key pad and a globe will pop up.
On the bonus disc, go to DVD credits. Push next twice. Arrow down from previous to next, press enter. The Soprano Regime are sittng around watching a stolen bootleg godfather dvd.
Click on "Galleries," then "DVD Credits." Hit "next" 4 times and you'll get an FBI warning screen you'll actually enjoy watching.
On the 5th disc (bonus selections) go to the "Family Tree." Select Santinos branch. Highlight the photograph of "adult" Sonny. Access the egg by highlighting James Caan's headshot. You will discover a brief snippet which was apparently part of James Caan's audtion. It is an amusing impersonation of Brando as Terry Malloy in "On the Waterfront".
On the "Bonus Materials" disc, go to the Family Tree section. Upon selecting any of the characters in this section, you will be taken to a "biography" screen of the character with their respective picture on the top of the screen. Simply push "up" on your controller, and you can select the picture. Selecting the picture gives you an acotr/actress bio... as of 1974!
On the first screen (young Vito sat singing to himself), select Scene Selections or SetUp, then select Return to Main Menu. You'll see a different screen, showing Michael opposite Fredo in the boathouse. Do the same again, and see a rather grisly screen showing Vito's revenge!
On the Extra Features disc, go to Filmmakers page and select
Mario Puzo. In his bio, press left twice and you will see a dollar sign highlight over the text of the bio. Press enter and Mario will tell you why he wrote The Godfather.
You can also access different parts of the Behind the Scenes section from the filmmakers bios by pressing left, highlighting their names and pressing enter.
These are for the R1 version
