The film and television buffs among us have trained ourselves long ago to look for hidden “Easter eggs” in the movies and shows we love – inside jokes, like little winks and nudges for the biggest of fans.

I don’t know that I would have ever known about these if not for the magical unicorns of Reddit and their ability to bring these things to light.
