Total Recall (1990)
Although Total Recall is an exciting movie, it has a fair share of strange and bizarre imagery. For instance, this scene shows a woman with three body parts instead of two.
While many fans pretty much skimmed through the entire movie, they had to do a double-take to confirm the bizarre moment in an overall entertaining film.
The Rescuers (1977)
Disney has a habit of sneaking strange extras into its movies. For instance, in this animated flick, The Rescuers, the “mouse” decided to include some individuals getting changed in their room and the shots are quite questionable.
We have no idea at all how they got away with it, but it is what it is.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)
Star Wars: The Force Awakens received positive reviews and was the third-highest-grossing film of all time at the time of its release (now it sits at the fourth position). The film was about finding out where exactly Luke Skywalker was, and how Rey finds him in the end (although we won’t say where).
As she hands over his lightsaber to him, the movie ends on a cliffhanger. Many fans of Star Wars paused the moment where it is believed that he is standing next to a gravestone.
Three Men and a Baby (1987)
Did you know that Spock himself directed Three Man and a Baby? Many people find it hard to believe that Leonard Nimoy was behind this 1987 classic.
He also did something in the movie that made many people pause one particular scene. He decided to have a cardboard cutout of Ted Danson standing in the background. That’s crazy stuff.
Iron Man (2008)
This 2008 American superhero film was a big hit. As all Marvel fans know, the movies are connected through Easter Eggs and references. So, there is something for the fans in the first movie of the franchise.
In one scene, Tony Stark is putting on his Iron Man suit when you can see Captain America’s shield (half of it). So, fans knew that Captain America was in the middle of production at that time.
Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
There are some super unforgettable moments in this first installment of the Indiana Jones film franchise. And there’s no denying one of the most despicable villains of the franchise is Dr. Rene Belloq (played by Raul Freeman).
In a classic paused scene from the film, we can see Belloq delivering some brilliant lines even though a fly was crawling into his mouth. The fact that even a crawling fly didn’t make him lose his focus is quite impressive.
Man of Steel (2013)
Man of Steel is another superhero movie that enabled us to enjoy a different cinematic universe. Although there were some mixed feelings of people about the portrayal of Henry Cavill as Superman, there is one reference that many viewers missed.
As Superman is fighting in space, viewers can see a satellite with a logo of Wayne Enterprises on it.
Burn After Reading (2008)
This 2008 black comedy crime film did extremely well at the box office, grossing over $168 million. There is one scene in the movie in which Brad Pitt’s character is hiding in the closet and George Clooney’s character finds him. And, without any hesitation, he shoots him dead.
As many Coen Brothers’ movies have very quick moments of violence, this scene happens so quickly that viewers have to pause it to make sure he is dead.
Signs (2002)
If you have seen the classic movie Signs, you know that aliens are revealed at the end of the movie. However, did you know that we get to see a brief glimpse of them early on as well?
It is such a brief scene that you have to pause it to get a closer look at them. Although the scene is not quite clear, it was done intentionally for a build-up to their actual reveal.
Finding Dory (2016)
When Finding Nemo hit the big screen, it became a huge success both critically and financially. Its sequel, Finding Dory, was released after 13 years and fans were surprised to see one of the main villains of the first movie making a cameo.
You can press the pause button for the scene to take a look at Darla, the niece of the scientist, when Dory is quarantined. This is indeed amazing Easter Egg by Pixar.
