15[[folder:Marvel Cinematic Universe]]
16* ''Film/IronMan2'':
17** During the Iron Man/War Machine fight at the party, watch Pepper and Natalie. [[spoiler:When the armored suits crash through the floor, Pepper screams and flinches, [[ComicBook/BlackWidow Natalie drops into a combat stance]].]]
18** Another example at around 1:13:55. Take a look at the image on the right page of the book Tony is thumbing through. A three dimensional square within a three dimensional square. Otherwise known as [[spoiler:a Tesseract]]. Seems the Arc Reactor may be based off research on [[spoiler: the Cosmic Cube]].
19** Look closely at the virtual map of superhuman activity ComicBook/NickFury shows Tony at the end of the movie. The various markers match up with the events of other MCU movies (such as one in the Arctic for ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger'' and one in New York for ''Film/{{The Incredible Hulk|2008}}''), except for [[ComicBook/BlackPanther one in Africa]] and [[ComicBook/SubMariner another in the middle of the Atlantic ocean]].
20* In ''Film/{{Thor}}'', a brief shot of [[spoiler:The Infinity Gauntlet]] is seen in the Vault as two Frost Giants run by it.
21* ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger''
22** During the scene where Zola is fleeing the HYDRA facility in ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger'', he can be seen grabbing some blueprints that have [[spoiler: the designs for the computerized body he comes to inhabit in [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier the sequel]]]].
23** In the scene with the painting, [[ComicBook/RedSkull Johann Schmidt's]] [[http://static.wikia.nocookie.net/marvelcinematicuniverse/images/c/ca/SchmidtSkull.png/revision/latest?cb=20140121115736 true face]] can be seen for less than a second as he turns off the light, long before it's properly shown halfway through the film.
24* ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}''
25** After Tony falls out of the Leviathan he took out from the inside, he slides along the street... [[TheStinger past a shawarma restaurant]].
26** In the plans for Stark Tower's redesign, separate floors can be seen designed for Bruce Banner, Thor, Steve Rogers, Hawkeye, and Agent Romanoff.
27* In ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier'' [[spoiler: Zola lingers on]] a newspaper clipping of Howard Stark's death, [[spoiler: meaning that either The Winter Soldier or an undercover HYDRA agent was responsible for his death. ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'' reveals that it was the former]].
28* ''Film/{{Guardians of the Galaxy|2014}}'' has a fair few in the Collector's museum, including [[Film/TheAvengers2012 a captive Chitauri]], [[Film/ThorTheDarkWorld a captive Dark Elf,]] Adam Warlock's regenerative cocoon, and a brief shot of the Tesseract flying past when the Collector talks about the Infinity Stones.
29* ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'':
30** Among Tony Stark's collection of spare AI assistants is a disc labelled "JOCASTA". One also reads; [[WesternAnimation/BigHero6 TADASHI]]?
31** If you pause when the Avengers are looking at ComicBook/{{SHIELD}}'s dossier on Ulysses Klaue, you can see that it mentions his great-grandfather having been killed by a previous ComicBook/BlackPanther.
32* of ''Film/AvengersEndgame'':
33** In the opening scene, as Clint's family disintegrates (off-screen) when he turns around from their view for a moment, the last wisps of dust representing his daughter can be seen for a mere moment as he walks towards the bullseye to pluck the arrow out.
34** [[ZigZaggingTrope Zig-Zagged]] with some of the holo-graphics the Avengers use when studying the history of the Infinity Stones. Although it's hard to see even pausing the movie, one of the graphics for the Tesseract/Space Stone shows pictures of notable [[Characters/MCUHydra Hydra]] leaders, including [[Series/AgentsOfShield Werner Reinhardt.]]

37----
38* In ''Film/The6thDay'', Sarah Winter's bare breast is visible for one or two frames as she sits up as the newest clone of Talia Elsworth.
39* In ''Film/AdultWorld'', Amy discovers "Screams of Abandonment" by Rat Billings, who becomes her favorite poet and would-be mentor. On the back cover: "Rat Billings is perhaps the most influencial poet of this generation. Blending the meledies of the city with the angst of the heart, Billings creates cocoons of wit and valleys of depression with his unique, soulful, and disgustingly honest voice." The editorial quality control that passed 'influencial' and 'meledies' and 'disgustingly honest' should have been Amy's first clue about the real Rat Billings as she gets to know him later. But it's probably quite intentional that Amy would buy into the shoddy "Screams of Abandonment", considering how we get to know her during the course of the movie.
40* ''Film/AirBud'' hid one that went unnoticed for years due to the poor video quality of the initial versions. The obituary for the main character's father seen briefly has text, which includes a few awful lines such as ''"Luther Framm was the daring pilot who during the Second World War flew in ham and bibles to Muslim prisoners in Berlin"'' and ''"He soon became the first cross-dressing squadron leader in the world"''.
41* ''Film/{{Alien}}'':
42** In the Director's Cut, approximately two minutes before Brett encounters the xenomorph while searching for Jonesy, the titular creature can be seen ''hanging in the rafters'' as the camera {{pan}}s up towards the source of light in the room, though this is only noticeable if the viewer knows what they're looking for.
43** If the film is paused right as Ripley runs to the controls of the lifeboat during the escape from the ''Nostromo'', [[spoiler:the xenomorph can be seen already hidden among the machinery and pipes in the wall she runs past - this is marked by its distinctive domed head]].
44* At the very beginning of ''Film/{{Anaconda}}'', when it shows the point of view of the anaconda as it swims through the jungle, you can briefly spot a demolished boat and a dead man lying in the wreckage, presumably the partner of the poacher attacked shortly afterward.
45* The theatrical cut (not the DVD cut) of ''Film/{{Apocalypto}}'' has exactly one frame showing Waldo of ''Literature/WheresWaldo'', [[spoiler:lying among the corpses of the mass grave that Jaguar Paw falls into]]. In the movie trailer of the same movie, one frame shows Creator/MelGibson himself, along with some Maya guys covered on white powder.
46* There's a brief scene in ''Film/AttackTheBlock'', where a map of the local area is shown. All the tower blocks and local streets are named after science fiction writers.
47* ''Film/TheBabysitter2017'': If you pause during the scene where Max falls through the floorboards of Cole's treehouse, right as the rope wraps around his neck and snaps taut, you'll see [[spoiler:Max's spine poking through the base of his neck]]. [[DeaderThanDead Yikes]].
48* ''Franchise/BackToTheFuture'':
49** In ''Film/BackToTheFuture1'', there's a couple of shots of the car racing toward the square just before the lightning strike. One of the buildings across the street from the square is a travel agency with a sign that reads "TIME TO TRAVEL?", which is a nod to the plot of the movie.
50*** In the opening scene, when Marty shows up at Doc's home, all the clocks show the time around 7:53, and when they go off at 8:00, Doc calls to tell him that clocks were 25 minutes slow as part of an experiment. But, if you look closely, you'll see beneath a table that [[http://screencapped.org/movie/backtothefuture/albums/movies/bttf1985/caps/scnet_bttf1_0110.jpg there was one clock which was showing the actual time around 8:18]], which was serving as a "control" clock.
51** In ''Film/BackToTheFuturePartII'', the future edition of "USA Today" has various headlines like "Thumb Bandits Strike Again" and [[HarsherInHindsight "Queen Diana to Visit Washington, D.C."]].
52*** In the alternate 1985, Doc shows Marty a newspaper whose front page shows that in 1983, this reality's Doc was committed to a nuthouse. The secondary headline reads "Nixon to run for Fifth Term, vows to end Vietnam War by 1985."
53** In ''Film/BackToTheFuturePartIII'', as Doc and Marty discuss their plan at the train station, you'll see the clock for the (then-)new courthouse has the time at 10:04, which is when it will stop in 1955. Also, [[RewatchBonus you'll see that the audience is actually introduced to Clara earlier]], as we see her in the same background shot, waiting for Doc, who'd originally agreed to pick her up from the station. Since he apparently hadn't shown up, she takes the buckboard carriage which almost goes into the ravine before being rescued by Doc.
54*** Before going to 1885, Marty complains that Creator/ClintEastwood [[FashionsNeverChange never wore such a ridiculous getup]], and Doc doesn't know who that is. They have this conversation in front of a drive-in theater, in front of a poster for ''Film/RevengeOfTheCreature'', Eastwood's first film. The movie marquee in the background also lists three sequels, as a TakeThat from the writers against the complaint that Hollywood was making too many sequels at the time, visually showing this was always the case in the industry.
55* In ''Film/BigGame'', every time a newspaper shows up, it's worth pausing the film and taking a closer look for gags and {{Stealth Pun}}s.
56* ''Film/TheBigLebowski'':
57** During the Dude’s EstablishingCharacterMoment, we see him writing a check for a carton of half and half in the supermarket. Pause on the quick shot of the check and you’ll see that the check is postdated, making Dude look like even more of a slacker.
58** When the Dude picks up Walter from his office, there’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it shot of the building Walter walks out of that reveals [[WhatExactlyIsHisJob just what he does for a living]]; he’s a security consultant and runs a store that sells surveillance equipment. You’ll also notice that, despite Walter’s staunch Judaism and hatred of Nazis, he apparently hasn’t realized that his store’s logo forms a big "[[UsefulNotes/NazisWithGnarlyWeapons SS]]"
59* ''Film/BlackLightning2009'': The newspapers about the Black Lightning have full articles, but are only shown for a few frames.
60* In ''Film/TheBookOfEli'' there is a hint as to what might have caused the end of the world on the map in Carnegie's office. If you pay attention you can just make out the outline of North Korea encompassing a THIRD OF CHINA.
61** A deleted scene shows one character burning books and magazines. One of them is a Time magazine with a cover photo of a mushroom cloud. A freeze frame reveals the caption: "Has It Come to THIS?"
62* In ''Film/TheCabinInTheWoods'' you can match the [[ArtifactOfDoom items in the cellar]] to the names on the white board and to [[spoiler: the monsters at the end]].
63* Pausing the frame in ''Film/AChristmasCarol1999'' while Scrooge signs Jacob Marley's death certificate lets you see the person just before him, Edmund Swinbank, who died via "decay of nature." Marley himself is listed as having died via a visitation from God.
64* In ''Film/TheCore'', when pigeons have lost their sense of navigation and are flying into plate-glass windows, one of the windows finally breaks. If you freeze-frame on this moment, you'll see that the window is broken not by a flying pigeon, but by a flying ''trout.''
65** The director actually makes it a point to specifically mention this during the commentary track, and to explain the circumstances behind it. While the animators were running tests to make sure all of the birds behaved correctly, one or more birds would often be temporarily replaced by trout models instead to make it easier to see those particular birds' paths through the swarming flock. Unfortunately, when they actually did the full rendering of the scene, someone forgot to change one of the trouts back into a bird, and no one noticed until it was too late to re-do the shot.
66* ''Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy'':
67** ''Film/BatmanBegins''. The "police officer" who recovered the Joker card was named J. Kerr.
68** ''Film/TheDarkKnight'':
69*** When the Joker's semi driver is killed during the chase and Joker takes over for him you can see that the bullet holes in the windshield form a smiley face.
70*** Right as Harvey Dent's face catches on fire the flames form the Batman symbol.
71*** When Sal Maroni walks with his bodyguards to his car, right before he gets inside the car you can briefly see Two-Face grab his bodyguard and drag him away, which is how he was able to get inside without him noticing.
72* In ''Film/Deadpool2'', Deadpool autographs a cereal box. Looking closer at the box reveals that he signed it [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall Ryan Reynolds]].
73* ''Film/DiaryOfAWimpyKid'':
74** In the first movie, when Greg and Manny are having breakfast, you can see ''WesternAnimation/IceAge1'' playing on a TV in the background.
75** During TheStinger of ''Rodrick Rules'' when Greg and Rowley are checking out their Website/YouTube video, you can see that while the video only got 4 views, it received 24,963 comments.
76** In the third movie, the news report near the end has a ticker filled with strange news items, such as "High school kid accidentally eats salad", and "New 'square' wheel fails to impress".
77* During the Hot Coffin scene in ''Film/DiamondsAreForever'', you can see the burners in the retort appear to shut off for a split second before cutting back to inside the coffin in which James Bond is being cooked alive to a CreepyAwesome Wagnerian soundtrack. The payoff comes seconds later when light unexpectedly shines on Bond and the Wagnerian music suddenly and abruptly cuts out just before Shady Tree, who had gotten him out, yells at him for passing him fakes.
78* Mr. Briggs' first name is never mentioned in ''Film/DoctorInTheHouse1954'', but a quick eye can see on his prescription sheet that it is "William".
79* In ''Film/{{Equilibrium}}'' Preston's Beretta shot flares look like the Tetragrammaton cross logo. The producer himself has stated that it was mostly a wasted effect, as few viewers noticed it.
80* In ''Film/ExMachina'', [[spoiler:when Caleb uses Nathan's computer, we see, for a split second, folders named AVA, KYOKO, JADE, JASMINE, KATYA, LILY and AMBER. Also, on the desktop is a folder named DEUS EX MACHINA]].
81* ''Film/FightClub'' has some single frames of Tyler Durden near the beginning before his first appearance in the story, and a few times it has some single frames of porn.
82** They even put a halt to the narrative to [[BreakingTheFourthWall break the fourth wall]] and [[LampshadeHanging explain the practice]] midway through the film, just to get you thinking about it.
83** The "FBI warning" on the DVD release has been re-written by Tyler as well.
84** At one point in the film, Tyler calls the narrator, who's at a pay phone, and on the phone you can barely see [[spoiler: the words 'no incoming calls allowed', meaning that it's ''physically impossible'' for Tyler to have called the narrator at that phone. The narrator is actually imagining Tyler's words, since Tyler is his split personality.]]
85* ''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'':
86** In the scene from ''Film/MothraVsGodzilla'', when Godzilla trips and crashes into the pagoda building, you can see some of his teeth fall out.
87** The opening credits of ''Film/{{Godzilla 2014}}'' have a lot of text that is quickly whited out to give credit to the production team. [[http://badassdigest.com/2014/05/16/badass-exclusive-the-redacted-secrets-from-godzillas-credits/ Several hidden messages are contained in said text, some of which are subtly tongue-in-cheek.]]
88** The end credits for ''Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters2019'' did the same, but are more cohesive, together telling a tale of a highly advanced prehistoric civilization which lived in symbiosis with the [[{{Kaiju}} Titans]], but when some members of this civilization attempted to control them for selfish purposes, the monsters TurnedOnTheirMasters. The civilization was destroyed and its survivors scattered into colonies across the globe, the monsters slipped into dormancy with the onset of the ice age, and all knowledge of the Titans was eventually lost, fading into legend.
89** ''Film/ShinGodzilla'': After Mr. G's first arrival in Tokyo, the Yaguchi team are reading citizens' Twitter posts about rising radiation levels in the city. Look for the post from [[{{Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion}} bakashinji]], who uses Asuka as an avatar.
90* In ''Film/HomeAlone1'', when Kevin’s dad throws away a bunch of napkins used to clean up the spilled milk and soda, among the things he throws away is Kevin’s plane ticket.
91* In ''Film/{{Idiocracy}}'', the very small Surgeon General’s warning seen on the Tarrylton’s Cigarettes billboard reads: “Warning: The Surgeon General has one lung and a voicebox but he could still kick your sorry ass”, ComicallyMissingThePoint on what constitutes a warning in that context.
92** When Joe is being apprehended by the police in Costco, the background screens display why he is wanted: “For being a dick,” “For escaping from jail” and “For fucking up lots of shit.”
93** When it shows a diagram of Clevon’s family tree, Hank and Bobby Hill from WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill can be spotted on the lower left side.
94* In ''Film/{{Jaws}}'', during the meeting on what the townspeople plan to do with the shark, if you look carefully at the drawing of the shark on the chalkboard you can see a more crudely drawn shark that had been erased earlier.
95* In ''Film/JawsTheRevenge'', in the theatrical version in which the shark explodes after being impaled, if you pause the frames before the shark's head explodes you can see that the shark is just a toy model and is much smaller than the regular mechanical shark.
96* ''Film/JohnWickChapter2'': The armorer visited by Wick is wearing a weird-looking badge. Close inspection reveals this to actually be a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandit-warfare_Badge Bandenkampfabzeichen]], a real medal which was given by [[UsefulNotes/NazisWithGnarlyWeapons the Wehrmacht]] to German soldiers who participated in anti-partisan operations. However, the design is chilling enough to look like something invented by [[Literature/HarryPotter Lord Voldemort]].
97* ''Film/JurassicPark1993'':
98** When John Hammond talks to Alan and Ellie in the trailer, there is a newspaper heading behind him that reads "Space Aliens Stole My Face!".
99** When the Tyrannosaurus breaks through the top of the jeep to try and get at Tim and Lex, when it takes a bite out of the glass, you can briefly see one of the Tyrannosaurus' teeth break. Joseph Mazzello, who played Tim, points this out in an interview.
100* In the 1997 informative video ''Film/TheKidsGuideToTheInternet'', many old websites are showcased. By pausing the video you can see news stories, websites and movie listings long forgotten.
101* In ''Film/KillBill Volume 1'', when Beatrix fights the Crazy 88’s you can see the words “Fuck U” inscribed on the soles of her sneakers.
102* In ''Film/KingsmanTheSecretService'', in the scene where Arthur and Eggsy share the special brandy, watch the glasses after the camera pans back from the painting. [[spoiler:The brandy is visibly sloshing more than it had been before the camera pan, because Eggsy switched the glasses.]]
103* In ''Film/LittleNicky'', when Nicky gets hit by a semi truck while chasing Adrian, his blood splatters on his metal head friends John and Peter, the blood splatter on Peter’s shirt spells out “666”.
104* ''Film/{{Logan}}'':
105** Logan comes across a group of men trying to steal the wheels from his limo and tells them that they're going to strip the chrome plating off of the lugs. In the ensuing brawl, one of the men hits Logan with the tire iron and sure enough, flakes of chrome can briefly be seen glittering in the air.
106** The corpse of the gas station attendant that Laura encountered is seen among Caliban and other dead "assets" at the Transigen base, implying that Pierce murdered him and anyone else who happened to be at the gas station when he and the Reavers arrived that day. The bodies of the Munsons are also being stored there.
107** A brief glimpse of their Transigen files reveals that Bobby's genetic material came from [[Film/XMenOriginsWolverine Chris Bradley]], and Rictor's came from Dominic Petrakis (Avalanche, a mutant with very similar powers).
108** Laura's Transigen files reveal a couple of interesting items:
109*** As a MythologyGag, her Transigen ID is X23-23.
110*** Her blood type is O-negative, making her a universal donor. This is, presumably, a result of her HealingFactor.
111* ''Film/Mandy2018:'' Creator/NicolasCage goes on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge after his girlfriend Mandy is kidnapped. Before all this happens, there is a scene where Mandy is reading a novel, and we see a page. A warlock has gained a prize, but at great cost to himself and to others.
112* ''Film/ManOfSteel'':
113** A freeze frame of Zod's threat video (at 0:29) will show the Superman shield.
114** You can spot a [[ArchEnemy [=LexCorp=]]] building during the Zod / Superman fight.
115** Zod throws a [=LexCorp=] tanker truck at Superman during said fight.
116** The satellite that is destroyed in the fight belongs to [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Wayne Enterprises]].
117** If you are paying attention to the flashback scene where Clark is pushed, there's a sign for "[[Series/{{Smallville}} Sullivan]]'s auto parts"
118** When Zod and Superman are fighting in a construction site, one of them is thrown into a sign with the common "[[XDaysSince Days since last accident]]" label. On the impact, the numbers fall, leaving a zero for a split second.
119* In ''Film/TheMask'', in the scene when Milo retrieves the keys from the sleeping guard at the jail Stanley Ipkiss is being held in, if you pause when Milo walks past the guard's desk to give Stanley the keys you can see that the guard was watching ''WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow'' on his portable TV.
120* ''Film/Masquerade2021'': After TheReveal, it's not clear whether [[spoiler:Rose is Casey's middle or family name. The news clipping of the home invasion reveals Casey's family surname is Morgan, and her full forename is Casey-Rose]].
121* ''Film/{{Memento}}'' has one that puts a whole new spin on some of the plot. [[spoiler: In a flashback scene in which Lenny is narrating the story of Sammy Jankis, a shot of Sammy sitting in a nursing home briefly changes to Lenny in the same spot and same clothes.]]
122** There's a similar effect in an earlier part of the story. [[spoiler:Where Sammy is giving the finger after being shocked, one shot is of a longer and thinner hand than Sammy's is. Leonard's hands are roughly the longer and thinner shape.]]
123* ''Film/MissionImpossible'': If you are careful at looking at the screen during the Prague mission, you will realize who the real traitor is very soon. [[spoiler:When Jim gets "shot", you can see that the hand holding the gun is turned in such a way that it is obvious the shooter is Jim.]]
124* In the SerialKiller thriller ''Film/MrBrooks'', Creator/DaneCook's character's first name is only revealed if you pause the DVD and [[spoiler: look closely at the newspaper article about him in one of the last scenes of the film]].
125* In ''Film/ANightmareOnElmStreet4TheDreamMaster'' during the beach scene, there is a half-second frame when the sand castle briefly turns into the Elm St. house before exploding.
126* The café proprietor in ''Film/NoKidding'' isn't named in dialogue, but the sign outside reveals his name to be "Nick".
127* In ''Film/NowYouSeeMe'', [[spoiler: when the Horsemen first meet in the NYC apartment and see the holographic schematics, the name TRESSLER briefly appears.]]
128* Towards the beginning of ''Film/OceansEleven'', Danny is reading an article while waiting for Frank. The viewers get a glimpse of it having a photo of Terry and Reuben, thus setting up Danny's interest in them as a target and ally respectively. Upon closer inspection, the article reveals that Terry plans to demolish the "Xanadu" and replace it with the "Angkor Wat Casino and Resort". The demolition is shown in one scene, but the only other reference to the Angkor Wat is Reuben dismissing it as "some gaudy monstrosity."
129* In ''Film/OfDiceAndMen'', John Alex's drawings of the previous Spango Garnetkillers have many hidden details that can only be fully appreciated by using the pause button.
130* ''Film/ThePinkPanther1963'': In the opening sequence, when the Pink Panther's hand gets smashed by a hammer while it's on the typewriter, we get "!!!*?#OW!;;#(!)" on the page as this.
131* ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanAtWorldsEnd'': Pirate Lord, Diego De Leon, in the "Hoist The Colours" scene, appears to have a flag very reminiscent of Blackbeard's real-life flag. (However, in ''On Stranger Tides'' Blackbeard's flag is different.)
132* In ''Film/PlanetTerror'', when Dr. Dakota Block is asked for a syringe for a lethal injection, we get a glimpse of her desk and to do list, the last item on her list is to Film/KillBill.
133* In ''Film/PunchDrunkLove'' when Barry punches the wall in frustration the cuts on his knuckles form the word "love".
134* In ''Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk'', when Indiana Jones, Sallah, and Marion walk through the chambers in the Well Of Souls, one of the carvings on the walls is of [=C-3PO=] and [=R2-D2=] from ''Franchise/StarWars''.
135* ''Film/RaisingArizona'' has a hilarious bit of meta-humor hiding under the headline of a newspaper H.I. swipes to learn more about the Arizona quintuplets:
136-->"''The fabled Arizona Quints were released today from the Maricopa County Hospital. They accompanied their mother to Tempe after two months of incubation. Their father is unpainted furniture tycoon Nathan Arizona, who is reportedly pondering a run for Congress in the 4th District. Pete Peterson, Republican incumbent in the 4th, dismissed the birth of the quints as "a cheap publicity stunt" in a news conference Thursday. He characterized Nathan Arizona as an "unprincipled media hog and a loud hectoring nitwit", but conceded that [[MeanCharacterNiceActor Trey Wilson, the actor portraying him, is a "very nice fellow with a distasteful job to do.]]''"
137* ''Film/RunSweetheartRun'': When Cherie goes to church, a beggar at the entrance is holding up a cardboard sign in Spanish that reads, "La menstruación es la única sangre que no nace de la violencia y es la que más asco te da" [[labelnote:translation]]"Menstrual blood is the only one that does not come from violence and the one that disgusts you the most".[[/labelnote]]
138* ''Film/ScaryMovie'' has a [[RealTrailerFakeMovie trailer]] for ''Film/{{Amistad}} 2'' that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cau_oshv8_A opens]] with this {{content warning|s}}:
139-->"The following peeview has been assproved for immature audiences only. If you can read this you are too close. Pee pee poopy boogers farts butthole. Rate I for Immature. We thought it would be funny to put this here. [[BreakingTheFourthWall Kiss our asses and take it off pause.]]"
140* ''Film/{{Scream 3}}'': If you pause and look closely during one of the scenes in Kincaid's office, you can see [[spoiler: the bulletproof vest Sidney wears when Ghostface/Roman shoots her later on]].
141* In ''Film/ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld'', taking Scott's thought wheel frame-by-frame reveals some pretty funny responses/actions. The full list of responses and actions: "I gotta pee", "Who, her?", "It was nothing", "Pass out", "No, you are", "[[BrickJoke Tell Pac-Man story]]", "Uh...", "When's dinner?", "No speaka English", "Idiot!" "She's forty!", "She's nobody".
142* Blink-and-miss scene in ''Film/TheSearchers''. The tombstone (of Ethan's mother) that Debbie hides next to reveals the source of Ethan's glaring hatred for Comanches. The marker reads: "Here lies Mary Jane Edwards killed by Comanches May 12, 1852. A good wife and mother in her 41st year."
143* In ''Film/ShredderOrpheus'', when Hades drags Orpheus away to participate in the Eurydice Door Show, a pillar behind him can only be seen for a few frames before the camera cuts away. It's covered in graffiti that reads "Turn Back."
144* In ''Film/TheSilenceOfTheLambs'' when Clarice enters the guard's station the camera pans around the room and passes over a bank of security monitors. One of the monitors shows Lecter's cell and shows Lecter getting up from his cot to get himself in position for his famous introduction to Clarice (and the audience).
145* In one scene of Creator/TimBurton's ''Film/SleepyHollow1999'' a demonic face can be seen in the fireplace; the makers point this out in the behind-the-scenes feature.
146* ''Film/{{Soldier}}'': The protagonist's personnel profile contains many ShoutOut references to other movies. In addition, there is a ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' inspired case of TheSixStats, with Charisma being the protagonist's DumpStat, fitting with him being TheStoic.
147* In ''Film/StarTrekTheMotionPicture'', frame-stepping through Spock's attempt to mind meld with V'ger will pretty much give away the big reveal, as some of the images are of [[spoiler: the Voyager space probe]].
148* Industrial Light & Magic did the special effects for ''Film/StarTrekFirstContact'', and some MagnificentBastard snuck in a split-second shot of the ''Millennium Falcon'' flitting around in the background.
149** ILM also did the effects work for ''Film/StarTrek2009'', and just like in ''First Contact'', they snuck in a split-second shot of R2-D2 zipping past the ''Enterprise'' as it ploughs through a debris field.
150* If you watch the commentary tracks of the ''Franchise/StarWars'' movies, several of these are explicitly pointed out.

And the "speed" segment of the [[ShowWithinAShow film-within-a-film]] of the same title has what amounts to Jittlov's manifesto on the power of the creative spirit written one sentence at a time into dozens of frames that go by in seconds.
169* ''Film/XMenFilmSeries''
