Not sure if this have been discussed before, but Siri on the aTV 4 has a few movie related Easter eggs. I discovered yesterday she knows a number of classic quotes, and links to the movies when you say one. I tried a bunch, here are a couple:

-Never Tell Me the Odds
-May the Force Be with You
-Hasta La Vista Baby
-I'll Be Back
-No Wire Hangers
-We'll Always Have Paris
-Show Me the Money
-I Love the Smell of Napalm in the Morning
-Open The Pod Bay Doors

She seems to have trouble with longer quotes, but seems to like one-liners. I also discovered if you ask her her favorite animal, she suggest several famous movie animals, and one of the responses to asking her to tell you a riddle is a Hobbit quote. She also sometimes responds to 'I love you' with 'I know.'

Any other aTV 4 Easter eggs?

Interesting... Sounds like you're getting a lot of use out of Siri! Personally, I've wound up just using her to skip over opening credits and 'scenes from last week' -- easier than repeatedly pressing skip-ahead-10-seconds on the touchpad. A much appreciated shortcut during my recent binge-a-thon of all 3 seasons of the Danish series "Forbrydelsen" (excellent show) -- the episodes started after 2 minutes 30 seconds of whats-happened-so-far review. o_O

For everything else, at least so far, the remote seems easier...

I wonder if she knows that great Star Trek: Voyager quote:

"Get the cheese to sickbay. The Doctor should look at it as soon as possible.”

— B’Elanna Torres, “Learning Curve"

(Sorry for geeking out, but it's become a go-to quote in our house.)

Here's Johnny!
A boys best friend is his mother
If you build it he will come
I see dead people
I love lamp
Go ahead make my day
Why so serious?
You had me at hello
You're gonna need a bigger boat
You talking to me?
We're not in Kansas anymore
Say hello to my little friend
I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship
Life is like a box of chocolates
I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse
