Fargo: SE easter eggs

has anyone found all the "hidden menus and other surprises" that the box hints at?

i've only found an alternate menu system so far, and you get to it by pressing left on any of the special features (the snowglobe behind William H. Macy is selected). if you click on it you get a different set of menus with a snowglobe theme.

anyone found anything else? like any actual easter eggs? there ought to be more, since well.. they say there is!

Incidentally, a hidden icon can also be highlighted under the hidden menu to take you back to the original one. It can be found in the 'chapter selection' screen (under the list).

I searched and searched and couldn't find anything other than what was already said.

I'm beginning to wonder exactly what MGM think they're playing at by putting "Hidden Menus & Other Surprises" on the back cover!

Maybe the Eggs are accessed via the Simpsons-like "random number" keypad entry.

Try hitting "509-89-0606". I think that's the MGM Lion's Social Security Number.

And do what? Are there are "easter eggs" hidden in particular chapters? Which ones? I hardly feel like combing through each chapter hunting for some little "extra."
Any more specifics?

Well Title 1 and its Chapters is usually the movie, so you can forego that one. The rest is, well, the rest. An easter egg, if there is one, would be somewhere there.

I was quite amused last night when I did as above and switched the Main Menu image to the snowglobe. The when accessing the Special Features, the snowglobe filled with blood and the chipper SFX played... too funny.

Couldn't find anything else.

I went through the titles and didn't find anything.

Keep in mind this movie's a "true story".

To my surprise no easter eggs are listed in the "Easter Eggs" section of DVD Profiler, nor are any eggs listed on any of my favorite DVD sites which always seem to be the first about posting easter eggs!

I suppose that in a while they will be listed in DVD Profiler. Anyway, thanks for posting what you found.
