she's done it again you're a very perceptive person superman selecting a bagel acts super normal for this list we'll be looking at the best intentional jokes and gags that have been left in the background of films by filmmakers we're excluding easter eggs and funny background mistakes because there are enough of those for another list if you think we've missed a good background gag be sure to let us know in the comments below if you like what you're hearing be sure to check out the full song at the link [Music] below number 10 the sneaky selfie avengers age of ultron taking this spot is everyone's favorite billionaire playboy and philanthropist tony stark i might need to visit oslo find our unknown during the avengers pursuit of the evil robot ultron he heads up to the nexus internet hub in oslo norway where we catch two young computer scientists trying to sneak in a selfie with the billionaire whilst his back is turned if you're paying attention to the foreground you likely didn't see this the first time around i just pay for everything and design everything and make everyone look cooler but it's not a surprising action on the employees parts considering the level of celebrity that the avengers have in the mcu however you should always ask before snapping a selfie with someone it's just polite and stops you from looking like a creep even if that someone is iron man iron man's what he's waiting for that's true number nine eavesdropping and a not so subtle getaway local hero [Music] in this bill forsyth 1983 comedy we see peter riegert play mack who is an up-and-coming oil executive mack is tasked with traveling to a small scottish village named fairness to buy the village people's land for his company despite his initial reluctance the young exec discovers a new lease on life through the village people's simpler small town ways in a pivotal scene in the film we see riegert alongside a young peter capaldi as they discuss the sale of the village with a local reverend only to have the entire village's population eavesdrop on the conversation but news does tend to travel fast around here hilarity ensues when the town tries to make an incognito getaway though this doesn't go smoothly despite their best efforts it's a crime yeah number eight pig explosion the lego movie your robots are no match for a master builder but i see everything in phil lord and christopher miller's the lego movie the film's heroes must stop the tyrannical lord business and his lieutenant bad cop from gluing their worlds according to his plans the directing duo's work is filled with a high level of attention to detail and visual comedy as well as smart background gags and this film is no exception whoa are we inside my brain right now it's big i must be smart i'm not hearing a lot of activity here at one point emmett finds himself along with wild style vitruvius and a cute lego pig being chased by bad cop and his forces unfortunately when they crash into a speeding train the pig falls to a grisly death and turns into a pile of sausages in the process it's a dark joke to be sure but one that happens very fast this is still a kid's movie after all you're a very perceptive person superman number seven the drunk nun dogma cardinal get this straight you don't believe in god because of alice in wonderland in one of the darkest entries on this list we see matt damon's character loki speaking to a nun while at the airport with loki being a real-life angel they surely have much to discuss however the scene takes an unexpected turn when loki convinces the nun to abandon her faith in organized religion and or god it's not too long after that we see the nun again but this time she's stumbling drunk out of a bar it seems that she's taken loki's advice and turned to drinking to either seize life's moments deal with the existential crisis she is going through or both while we don't see a resolution to this story it's clear that this character won't ever be the same again let it never be said that your anal retentive attention to detail never yielded positive results number six hans name fast five han you're up sure nothing like the easy stuff in the fifth installment of the fast and furious franchise we see an almost superhero style team-up featuring many of the previous movies casts the fan favorite character in this lineup is arguably han played by song kang han first appears in fast and furious tokyo drift but two movies later we see diplomatic security service agent luke hobbs trying to get info on dominic and brian's crew hans's full name is listed on screen as han solo which is clearly a nod to harrison ford's star wars character han solo i'm captain of the millennium falcon though it's implied that this isn't his real name but merely an alias with han louie being generally accepted this link between the hans likely hasn't been lost on fans who've surely found it both confusing and amusing we can do this can't i mean shouldn't number five the writings on the wall hot fuzz well however you spin this there's one thing you haven't taken into account and that's what the team is gonna make of this english filmmaker edgar wright's three flavors cornetto trilogy is filled with hundreds of smart visual comedy moments one of the best of these comes in the second installment of the series 2007's hot fuzz when entering his new sleepy countryside police station newly promoted sergeant nicholas angel is introduced to his new colleagues including sergeant tony fisher behind him we see a whiteboard where several not so flattering words are shown the way he and the words are positioned makes them look like they're actually describing the police man himself the truth of which we'll discover later on this is truly a well-hidden moment lasting just a few frames but it stands as a testament to just how well-made and re-watchable wright's films are very good what he said number four bagel time spider-man into the spider-verse step six i grab a bagel from the cafeteria and run in 2018's groundbreaking spider-man into the spider-verse peter parker and miles morales find themselves attempting to steal data from doc ock's office while trying to make their escape miles throws a bagel at one of the pursuers selecting a bagel acts super normal as the bread product flies to the air it strikes a scientist trying to pursue them in a nod to early comic books we see the word bagel appear above his head creating a blank and you'll miss it moment of comedy gold this computer animated flick is filled with these little touches and is partly the reason it was such a commercial and critical success i love you i'm so proud number three the tale of the ginger witch the harry potter franchise look at this i can't believe it she's done it again in the harry potter film series the filmmakers have left many easter eggs and small details that give us more insight into the rich and vibrant wizarding world though this one will perhaps be new to even the most die-hard potterhead throughout the movies we frequently see newspaper montages used for exposition hidden within them is the tale of the ginger witch show him we'll find out soon enough she's a hardened criminal with wig theft a henna explosion and even a stint in azkaban prison on her rap sheet with her list of crimes beginning to rival lord voldemort let's hope she's brought to justice one day justice number two escupimos ensue alimento anchorman the legend of ron burgundy in this classic will ferrell comedy we see ron burgundy aka the titular anchorman feeling threatened by an up-and-coming female anchor veronica corningstone you read my news i told you that i wanted to be an anchor i told you that i thought you were kidding this intelligent battle of the sexes style comedy is filled with many great background jokes one of the best ones comes moments before veronica and her friends are about to share a meal have you ever thought about fighting fire with fire in order to transition to the scene we're shown a sign written in spanish for the restaurant in question which reads escupimos ensue alimento this roughly translated to we spit on your food in english it's a great gag for anyone with some basic spanish though most like the characters in the movie will likely remain oblivious to the joke you know i don't speak spanish in english please before we continue be sure to subscribe to our channel and ring the bell to get notified about our latest videos you'll have the option to be notified for

you handle this what me yeah it's easy you just catch this moment can be described as one of complete comedic genius while tommy lee jones's agent k questions a friendly alien we see will smith's agent j simultaneously helping and fighting off a tentacled monster alien who's about to give birth in the background it's case total lack of care juxtaposed with jay's complete terror that makes the scene so humorous in fact it's this straight man slash funnyman routine teamed up with the natural chemistry between the two actors that has helped make men in black such a successful comedy overall plus this particular scene ends with a cute alien baby meaning everyone can go away happy well everyone except jay perhaps actually [Music] do you agree with our picks let us know in the comments and
