have you spotted them? (scenes, textures, audio?)
To kick off, here’s a very obvious one by Matt:
and another in the same texture:

hehe, good stuff.

Some other funny things (I’m not gonna take screenshots/render now, maybe later):
Yet another one, I don’t understand this one actually: In the menu, under extra’s there’s a tile on the right without a title, but that’s a menu-item too! Under it, there’s a weird animation of a big guy, spitting while talking (without sound).
Probably an insider’s joke?
Also, check the last few frames of the making-of video (requires pausing and scrolling a bit )
There are also (at least) two homages to other movies to find in the short itself, one of them referencing a Dutch actor. But that’s all I’ll say on that matter.
Sounds like the animation from an old lip-sync tutorial. He’s supposed to be saying “Hallo, I am Ton Roosendaal, and I pronounce Blender as BLENDER.” I can confirm when my steenkin’ postal carrier delivers my copy finally.
Edit: The original author is Hos, but the links on the site downthread are dead. I found the file facev12.mpg with audio here. That really is Ton’s voice.
there are more… but some of them are very hard to find…
ACK! Forgot how ol Ton sounds ! Weirdd

How do I get that sound file?
http://www.ualberta.ca/~cwant/blender/faceV12.mpg >> I hope Chris doesn’t mind me linking :o) but that’s the one.
I’m still amused by the blonde-Ton in that tutorial (tiny picture)!
By the way, slikdigit & @ndy, it’s not going to be very believable if you say it like that (sounds more like we covered most of it :))
I was just wondering: did anyone find out if the typewriter is actually typing something? If so, what is it (I couldn’t find out where in all the files this was…)?
I remember hearing the Bassam & Andy commentary, in which Andy asks: “What’s in the jars?” When Bassam replies “You can see for yourself in the Blend files.” I immedialty thought “I bet there’s a Suzanne in there.” Good to see that I was right.
Prehaps it was just my DVD player, but I couldn’t access this one on the NTSC disc. PAL worked fine however. Anybody else had this trouble?
Yea, I found Ton’s voice weird too. Nothing like I had expected it to be. No offense Ton, if you’re reading this.
A preproduction render of what’s on those shelves for the lazy:

Of course, you could make these yourself from the source on the DVD, but I’m a nice guy.
The pads that appear under the feet of the characters have the Blender logo on them, or at least the one that launches the robot
I haven’t got the files yet, but noticed it in the HD version.
The dutch actor one is easy to spot, not as easy as the stalker one, but being a bladerunner fan myself it was one of the first things that struck me when I saw the anim (even in OpenGL). Very well done I might add.
But a bit weird to have Proog reacting that scene in that spot as the android just killed his master.
The audio missing on the lipsync seems to be a weird glitch of mp2. And yes it’s only on the PAL disc.
