Easter egg: Stay after the credits for a bonus scene featuring Mark and Eddie.
Empire Records (1995)
1 easter egg
Directed by: Allan Moyle
Starring: Liv Tyler, Ethan Embry, Robin Tunney, Anthony LaPaglia, Rory Cochrane, Maxwell Caulfield, Debi Mazar
Continuity mistake: When Liv and Renee are having lunch, Liv takes off her bra and puts it on the table. After that, the bra moves around constantly, all over the table, and eventually ends up on the floor somehow, with nobody ever touching it.
Warren Beaty: Who glued these quarters to the floor?
A.J.: I did.
Warren: Why the hell for, man?
A.J.: I don't feel that I need to explain my art to you, Warren.
Trivia: "The autograph" girl, is Kessia Randall, the real-life sister of Ethan Embry (Mark).
Question: When Mark is watching a video in which he views himself being swallowed by a random monstrosity, he says, "I love you Eddie." Now, I took it as a reference to the "Eddie" that was part of a famous Iron Maiden stage show back in the eighties. A friend of mine took it as him (Mark) being thankful for his friend, Eddie, giving him the drug inbibed brownies that he was eating. Which was it?

Answer: I'm pretty sure it was the Eddie that gave him the brownies, because the band we see that is onstage at the time is Gwar, if I am not mistaken. They were famous for having a monster onstage that would 'eat' fans.

Yeah, cause Eddie gave him the pot brownies that made him hallucinate being in a Gwar show, so he's thanking him.
