Paul Newman manages his way through 50 hard boiled eggs in the film Cool Hand Luke in a bid to win a bet with his inmates.

In Ghostbusters, Sigourney Weaver’s character watches eggs mysteriously explode from their box in her kitchen- a sure sign of something eggstraordinary.

Then there are the moments of eggstacy. For example, in Japanese comedy Tampopo when the two leads kiss by passing a yolk between their mouths, or in Hot Shots! when Charlie Sheen cracks an egg onto his love interest’s stomach and watches it fry.
