Did you get all of those sequences? It's quite sweet - she ends up marrying
Cyrando, and Garrick falls for the next pretty serving girl he meets.

I've never seen it legitimately, but there is a 0.1% chance that when you
talk to Aphril in Spellhold, her "vision" is a plug for NWN. A cute idea.

I loved finding 'Biff the Understudy' standing in for HD in the play scene.

Cyrando was convinced that a girl that beautiful could never fall in love
with someone like him. I'll have to go back and try talking to them again...

If they arn't there, they are on the other side of the building (go
inside the RH and out on the other side). Missed them myself the first
time. Seems like the move to another spot when they desides to get
married.

Another one of her visions is about a corpse standing in front of a pillar
of skulls.

Ah yes. The NWN one is a bit more of an overt ad, though.

Er? Majordomo is a title meaning: "The head steward or butler in the

I don't know what you mean by "easter eggs", but I was greatly amused
by the two paintings at the back of the Adventurer's Mart depicting
two characters from a certain Saturday morning cartoon based on a
certain RPG.
I named an elf I played "Drizzt". By Chap 6, he had a low rep. I
encountered Drizzt. He got... annoyed.
And then there's "Neeber" in Trademeet, reminding me of "Noober" in
BG.

The ultimate easter egg has to be the pantloons. In BG1, there are the
golden pantloons (Friendly Arm Inn), in BG2, there are the silver
pantloons (hostage quest), and I understand you can get bronze pantloons
somewhere in ToB. If you collect all three, they can supposedly be
transmuted into some super-objects as a reward.

That super object is the BMU = Big Metal Unit. If you collect the three or
more items you can let it forge into it. It provides -10AC and you can shoot
with a gun and it has more extras! (i've done this quest by starting in BG1
and stopped in ToB when i had received my last item, then you must go to the
city where you encouter the 4th bhaalspawn "Balthazar", in that city (i
don't remember the name) resides a man on a house' roof. who makes the BMU
for you.
The only min thing is: when you wear the BMU you look like a Adamite Golem.
And if you know them, you know what the risico's are.

dialogue between the two of them:
Vic: Minsc, that tattoo on your face. Does it have tribal significance or did
some nursery's fingerpainting class assault you with the blue pastels?
Minsc: I do not like the tone of your voice, Dark Elf. The face I have is the
face the ladies love! Boo loves Minsc's face, too! Don't you, Boo?

Not really an easter egg, but...
I find it highly amusing the way the imps talk like Yoda ('Time of the

Actually, that's the way all of the non-drow sound when speaking drow (cf.
Salvatore's books with Drizzt in the underdark). If you "listen" carefully
you'll notice that the deep gnomes sound that way when you're a drow as
well, just as that hammerhand fellow always sounded to Drizzt.

In ToB, in Abazigal's lair, there's a section with some 'eyes' and a small
quest to get a Gauth's eyestalk. You can 'subcontract' the quest to a group
of adventurers, who appear to be about lvl 1 ('Tim has Magic Missile!')
When they get back,...
Ah, but that would be telling!

I thought that one of the funniest easter eggs was at the Feldpost Inn
in Beregost during BG1. An angry guys keeps repeating 'You talkin to
me' in an obvious take on Robert De Niro in the great movie 'Taxi
Driver'.

Luckily, I've only seen Taxi Driver on DVD, so I can claim to be still
something of a spring chicken. It's just a shame I lost five years of my
life due to the unmitigated horror of living in the same epoch as Lucas
chose to release Episode 1: The Phantom Menace. I will warn people about
films with colons in the title (rather like BG2:SoA, oddly enough).
But the guy in Beregost (Marl?) who accosts you is almost as funny as his
friend standing next to him, with his "Don't click on me!" comments ;-).
Finally, for a BG1-themed bonus prize, where on Earth did the line "I am the
law!", as uttered by the Fumbling Fist, actually come from? I'm sure I've
heard it in a film, but I can't think which.

As a watcher of Incredibly Bad Movies, I can answer this one:

I watched that film, once (and only once, I must stress). Ouch! was the
best way I can describe the experience. Oddly enough, I think I got almost
every other BG1 film reference (notably from the NPC's). It's a bit of a
shame that BG2 couldn't have had a few more of these in place (Cohrvale and
Bregg, the Human and Dwarven Fighters just outside the CC spring to mind -
with a vertically challenged character in tow, it was crying out for a "say
hello to my little friend!" line ;-)).

That didn't sound right so I did a Google search:
There's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff wall
That's my soul up there
There's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall
That's my soul up there
There's a blue whale beached by a spring tide's ebb
That's my soul up there
There's a butterfly trapped in a spider's web
That's my soul up there
For what it's worth...
