Ok, I only got one new one. When you visit the astrologer the second time he is doing some research and mumbles the following:

When the moon is in the seventh house...
...and Jupiter aligns with Mars...
The peace will guide the planets and love ...?

Those are exact lyrics from the song 'Age of Aquarius' from the musical Hair.

I always need someone to point out music easter eggs as I will almost never get them. rolleyes.gif

Hey, I've heard that song before! I've thought those lines were familiar, but I couldn't place it. Now I won't be going crazy every time I see that. Thanks. biggrin.gif

The only easter eggs I got in this game were the KQ plugs, the Marx brothers, and that "Just the Facts mam" line. But I think this game has the best easter eggs of the series. smile.gif

I don't know if this counts as an easter egg, but I happened to be watching Lawrence of Arabia and I noticed that the music that plays when the main character first heads out into the desert is the same that plays as the hero goes into the desert to join with the caravan.

Well, there is King Arthur in the desert lying dead, the persian golfer, how about the Enterprise (or is it Exitprise?) in the opening sequence and IIRC in the shelves of the magic shop. I also remember seeing a Muppet in Keapon's shop, but I'm not sure about that one...

That "Muppet" is none other than Cookie Monster!

"C is for Cookie. It's good enough for me. Oh, Cookie, Cookie, Cookie starts with C!"
It's the Cookie Monster's song...

Did you know that the musical "Hair" has the entire cast buck naked?

If I'm lyin', I'm dyin'!

It happened because their costumier locked the key from the wardrobe room in his car.

Did you know that when you ask Ali Chica (Chico Marx) about the duck, you'll get a funny reply. Something that's easy to miss, however (I missed it 'till yesterday) is the question he makes "Why a duck?"; apparently this is a phrase from one of their movies (correct me if I'm wrong), and the ending "... and then you make-a the duck soup.": Duck soup is the name of one of their movies. Also when the Katta tell you Ali left with his friend of golden hair to some place called "Fredonia". Fredonia is a misspelled Freedonia, yet another place from the movies.

I swear, QFG 2 ALWAYS has something new in it! biggrin.gif

Of course, there are the Maltese Falcon and Casablanca plugs in Raseir:

S
P
O
I
L
E
R

a precious blackbird from Orient which turns out to be a fake, Wilmer the gunman, Signor Ferrari (a very big resemblance to Gutman, same laugh and some of the lines. "I respect that in a man.", etc.). There is probably more, but I can't think of all of it now.
Jantje
I've heard the Ferrari and Ugarte thing before, I think. Someone pointed out they're like exactly the same as some duo somewhere in a movie.

Yeah. Ferrari and Ugarte are from Casablanca. The same two actors were in a lot of movies together, including the Maltese Falcon (so the Coles took the names from Casablanca, and the blackbird story from MF. And random quotes from both movies)
Jantje
Yep, that was what I'd heard. I've seen both movies in a distant past, but can't remember a lot of them...
Paladinlover
Not only that, but in the movie Casablanca, Ugarte gets arrested and cries out for help as he's dragged away... in QFG 2, the exact same thing happens!

Also, Ferrari in QFG 5 looks EXACTLY like Ferrari in Casablanca.

Okay, I guess I just gots to go through the series again. Still waiting to see what AGDI comes up with. From a few screens I've seen from it it's gonna be great. It's gonna be a lotta work to get all the easter eggs in the remake.
Saeko
I'm shocked that all these years later, only one person has found my cameo yet. After traveling to Rasier, if you go back into the desert and head out to the Forbidden City during the daytime, you'll see me sitting on a rock. To get there the normal way you need to head west of the city gate until you hit a rocky dead end (sort of like Julanar's screen without the tree), and then go north, west again, and then south. But seriously, people. Only one person? I know I would remember them if I'd ever gotten more visitors, but the only one who ever found me was this Klausse guy.
Paladinlover
Ahh, Klaussisms, how they never get old... tongue.gif

Im not sure if it qualifies as an easter egg, but I guess you all now about the x-ray glasses and how you can use them in Raseir....?
