Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai - Platform: DVD

Submitted by: Dj Simo

Easter Egg
----------
Go to the Special Features menu, page 1, and access the list 
of Deleted Scenes, Page 1. While looking at the first list of 
8 of the 14 deleted scenes, manuever to highlight the [SPECIAL 
FEATURES] box at the bottom middle of the screen. Then push 
Left to highlight the Watermelon. Press Enter now and a text 
screen comes up: a made-up newspaper article about Perfect 
Tommy's experiment with dropping watermelons from the sky to 
relieve world famine. Press the [More -> ] box at the bottom 
to access the 2nd page, and go on to the 2nd Easter Egg. 

2nd Easter Egg
--------------
On the 2nd page of the news article, on the bottom left you 
will see a "BB" (Buckaroo Banzai) logo. Move the cursor Right 
to the [ <- Back] box and then Up to the "BB" logo and press 
enter. You will then see a brief interview about the whole 
watermelon question, and a bit about a recipe for "Chicken 
in a Watermelon"! 

3rd Easter Egg
--------------
Finally, return to the main Special features menu and go to 
Page 2 of it. Access the area called "Banzai Institute 
Archives". On the bottom left you will see another "BB" 
logo, this time in a circular seal. Go down to the [Special 
Features] box at the bottom right of the screen, and then 
move the cursor Right to highlight the Seal. Pressing Enter 
while here will display two alternate Cover Art Inserts for 
the Buckaroo Banzai DVD that were discarded prior to selecting 
the one used. Interestingly, neither of the two displayed are 
the one that MGM circulated just before upgrading the Buckaroo 
Banzai DVD to "Special Edition" status and delaying it's release 
until Jan. 2002; so there's at least one more alternate DVD cover 
not shown in this Easter Egg! 

Series of quotes from Buckaroo Banzai and others
------------------------------------------------
On the main menu, highlight 'Play Movie'. Press left to highlight 
a jet car at the top of the screen. Press enter to see a series 
of quotes from Buckaroo Banzai and others. 

Alternate menu designs
----------------------
From the highlighted jet car, press left again to highlight a 
dial on the left of the screen. Press enter to see the alternate 
menu designs.
