Easter eggs are those hard-to-find references hidden in movies by directors and producers for keen-eyed fans to uncover and enjoy.

In 1937, Walt Disney Co DIS released "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs." It was the first full-length animated feature and was the first time Disney included an Easter egg in a film: a hidden Mickey Mouse logo that appeared several times throughout the movie.

Since then, Disney has built a rich cinematic history, which also includes Easter eggs featuring Disney movie characters or references in other Disney movies. We’ve gathered a list of those clever moments from the company's animation "renaissance" period that make fans smile.
