I thought Battlefield Earth had a cool concept when I was like 13. I watched it again a few years ago and it's hilariously bad. 90% of the movie is Dutch angles

I had no idea what a "Dutch angle" was, so I googled it and was pretty tickled to find that it triggered a Google easter egg :)

Maybe I am one of today's 10,000 but I had never heard of that particular one!

At first I went "what easter egg?"

Also, kudos for the AI Overview for getting it entirely wrong while the easter egg at least knows what's up

I've known about the Easter egg for years, but I honestly assumed it wouldn't work in the mobile app.

Turns out it does!
