Warner Bros. released a bunch of new LEGO Dimensions packs last week, including one based on Ghostbusters. Eurogamer has now come across an entertaining Easter egg relating to the film.

Before the new Ghostbusters movie hit theaters, it saw quite the fan backlash. Some people weren’t happy that the franchise was receiving a new film, as they felt the original two films were fine as is. Others weren’t pleased that the team was changed from all male to all female.

In LEGO Dimensions’ new pack, writer and director Paul Feig is hiding in the first level. After unlocking him from a cupboard, he says: “I wonder if they’d be mad if I remade ‘Back to the Future’.” That’s incredibly unlikely to happen, though Feig has joked about remaking Back to the Future as a way of having fun with some of the Ghostbusters internet trolls.
