What are the Easter Eggs in Avengers: Infinity War?
10 Years of Marvel
Not really an Easter egg as such, but fans will love the revamped opening credits for Marvel Studios.
As well as now including Black Panther and Ant-Man, the credits also change the "io" of studios into 10, to recognise the ten years since the Marvel Cinematic Universe launched with Iron Man.
"We Have A Hulk!"
Infinity War opens immediately after the events of Thor: Ragnarok with the Asgardian ship attacked by Thanos and his cronies.
As Thor is imprisoned, Loki delivers one final surprise on Thanos by unleashing the Hulk on the evil tyrant.
The phrase "we have a Hulk" was first used by Iron Man in Avengers Assemble when trying to reason with Loki, who at the time was attempting to invade Earth on behalf of Thanos.
As things come full circle, sadly time was up for recently redeemed Loki as Thanos caught on to his tricks and stabbed him through the heart.
When Thanos claims "no resurrections this time," he's presumably referring to how Loki cheated death in Thor: The Dark World. Though it's unclear how he would've discovered those events.
"Thanos is coming!"
It might have ensured his own death at the hand of Thanos, but Hemidall's last heroic act upon the Asgardian refugee ship is to send Hulk to Earth.
Bruce Banner crash lands in Doctor Strange's Sanctum where he declares "Thanos is coming."
This mirrors the role played by Silver Surfer in the Infinity War comic book, who lands in the location and utters the same fearful phrase.
Due to 20th Century Fox owning the cinematic rights to Silver Surfer - for now - Marvel had to get creative and instead used this scene as a nod to the book.

Peter Parker has gained his spider sense
When Spider-Man was introduced to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, film execs opted for a much more realistic interpretation with Tom Holland's Spidey outing relying on gadgets and tech more than superhuman abilities.
This seems to have changed with Peter Parker now having spider sense, alerting him when the Black Order arrive in New York.
Stan Lee's cameo
It wouldn't be a Marvel movie without a show-stealing cameo from the Marvel legend.
This time it takes place early on, when we meet Spider-Man and his classmates on a field trip.
Stan Lee plays a disgruntled bus driver who claims: "What? You kids never seen a spaceship before?"
Arrested Development cameo
Infinity War directors Anthony and Joe Russo launched their career with the popular US sitcom Arrested Development.
The show has since gained a loyal following, with one memorable scene showing lovable Tobias FĂĽnke covering himself in blue paint in a bid to join the legendary Blue Man Group.
When the Guardians of the Galaxy head to Knowhere to secure an Infinity Stone ahead of Thanos, the Arrested Development scene is referenced with a life-size model sitting in a glass chamber.
The director pair previously referenced their hit sitcom in Captain America: Civil War where they included the show's stair car during the airport showdown between Cap and Iron Man
