Sunshine Easter Egg - Subliminal images from 00:49:21 (mystery faces)
At time marker 00:49:21, (and three times after that in the same scene) when the crew is entering the entering Icarus 1, flashlight beams move across the camera lens at certain points. On some of these occasions, subliminal images appear (four times in total).
Contrary to some reports, they are not flashes of an image of the director (Danny Boyle), but are in fact images of some of the crew from Icarus 1 - you briefly see the full image of all of the crew shortly afterwards (they are all smiling and wearing Hawaiian shirts). The concept of the subliminal images is to lower the viewer's guard, and also increase the impact of the subsequent scenes (no spoilers, but it's not pretty).
Special Requirements: DVD, frame by frame
