Holy cow, the pressures of the world are really on you, veritas!
it's true..it's the role of a pensioner to be upset by things like this.

Easter eggs are still quite common and they're an absurd conceit.

One could say if at fits in the box then its simply added value!
Easter Eggs are not really used anymore as the major studios discovered that people were not buying dvd's because of them unless they were mentioned on the box, kinda out-witting the purpose.
Same with the broshure clips. Unless the case says 'booklet inside' the booklet adds no sales figures.

Generally I agree and don't bother to watch them but the exception to the rule is the Making Of... DVD with An American Werewolf in London. It's almost better than the movie and that's saying something as it's one of the best films ever made.

The entire series... like yesterday..the Legend of Robin Hood.
but why the hell do I want to see a film about how the frigging series was made ?
Just as I relax and think there is one more DVD of shows to watch it turns out to be a 'how the series was made' useless piece of information.
If I'm watching some tale of a mythical outlaw set 100 of years ago why in the hell do I need to see how the bloody arrows were made and shot and so on ?
What happens when we get the documentary on how they made the doc...etc...reminds me of a Michael Caine sketch on Spitting image from the 80s
