10:13 Also, when the actress who originally played Jane asks for the address, she thanks Jane and Jack by saying, "Many thanks, sincerely, " which was how Jane and Michael signed off on their help wanted ad for a new nanny.

"Hurry nanny. Many thanks, sincerely. Jane and Michael, Banks." *nod* :)

I like how in this movie, Dick Van Dyke's character refers to when he played in "Stepping Time" in the original by saying "I still got a few steps left in me."

when Mary Poppins first arrives in the original film, she tells Michael to close his mouth because “We are not a codfish!” and when Mary Poppins returns in the new film, she tells Michael to close his mouth again because “We are still not a codfish!”

The original Jane actress not only asks for an address, she also cites lyrics from one of the original songs, the Nanny ad. "Many thanks, sincerely..."

Saw the movie today and absolutely loved it! Im 60 yrs old and can remember seeing the original when it first came out. Loved the entire cast and all the songs and dancing. Bravo for this sequel!

Very unfair about Lin's accent. He nailed it. I lived in London for 35 years and, cor blimey, he went and done it somethink brillian'. In the last 20 years, movie accents have seriously improved in all movies, in the early 60s no one seemed to care. MP Returns was shot in London and at Shepperton, Dick Van Dyke had to film in Hollywood where he could not really research it and no one told him his accent was bonkers or asked him to rectify it.

I loved MP Returns. It is a joyous film firing on all cylinders right from the start. They DO make movies like they used to.

Also, Dick Van Dyke's new character made a joke in this movie that was a reference to a joke about a wooden leg in the first movie.

Over the last few months I have loved Mary Poppins returns. I was drawn to it when I saw it in the theatre with my family. Most of all, I loved the song THE PLACE WHERE THE LOST THINGS GO.

Here’s one that most missed. When Mary enters the home for the first time the background score plays one bar of “Spoon Full of Sugar” then continues with its previous melody.

[renesegarcie]

Just saw the movie and noticed every one of those!! There was also a tune being played from the original in the background during a scene in Returns but, I'd have to see it again to recall exactly what that was and when! In my opinion, this sequel was every bit as much of a masterpiece as the first; perhaps, even more so when you take into consideration all of the remarkable and fantastic special effects that were used. The appearance by Dick Van Dyke gave me chills. I had to check the internet to see if everything he did was on his own or had been supplemented by FX. The fact that he did that scene on his own steam at his age is SUPREMELY impressive!!

[kurtsiecolferites]

Really enjoyed the sequel. It was a great nod to the original while still being its own original story.

Emily Blunt is a pretty good singer, too (of course, she isn’t Julie Andrews) but she still does a great job!

There’s a cameo of the bird lady on the steps of St. Paul cathedral. She is sleeping and birds flying away high into the sky. I would think symbolizing the death of Jane Darwell who played the bird lady

[laurenmontera]

I caught the reflection one, the penguins, the umbrella head, the kite, Ellen, the water globe of St Paul's Cathedral, "Close your mouth, we're still not codfish" "Jane still rather inclined to giggle" from her tape measure, "You think they would have learned to put their things away by now" about the papers, Ms. Lark and her dog (Same breed as the first film, without the sneeze) plus, there's a joke in the first film about "A Man with a wooden leg named Smith", and Michael's wife's name was "Kate" like the nanny that left in the first film before Mary arrives.

ANOTHER EASTER EGG caused me to burst out in laughter. After his song & dance on the desktop, Dick Van Dyke starts to tell a story then stops himself & starts another--just like any old person would do. The first story is the half of the first line OF THE MOST HILARIOUS JOKE THAT BERT TELLS in the original. (Is this the ad-lib that the cast has talked about in that scene???) It was all I could do to control myself after my wife slapped & shushed me. I love to laugh at DVD's jokes.

At the end, she says she's practically perfect in every way...

[pauldelgadillo]

The reference to marmalade is made at the very beginning of the film when Michael has completely forgotten to go to the grocery store and Ellen comments that all they have is marmalade and pickled herring left....This film is magical and awesome from beginning to end and there were even more Easter eggs besides the one's mentioned. I also like the fact that the neighbors and vendors are better known to all of us...

I loved the movie! Saw it last night. Can't stop listening to the soundtrack. I'm hooked on The Place Where Lost Things Go, it's so beautiful and touching.

[WrenFaithBridger]

I made the emotional mistake of watching the original "Mary Poppins" the day before watching "Mary Poppins Returns". It had been years since seeing the original, and I'd never seen the second. I was a quivering mass of emotions after watching the second one...and believe me, I didn't miss a thing!

[mejrpi]

Loved this movie. It was "practically perfect in every way."

[skyfirewolf]

Mary Poppins: Close your mouth James, we are still not a codfish.
Lin off screen: CONGARATULATIONS.
Renee: That's my line! I'm supposed to be roasting you!
