Google 'Thanos' For Special 'Avengers: Endgame' Easter Egg

PHILADELPHIA (CNN) – Easter may be over, but Google has a special "Avengers: Endgame"-themed "Easter egg" in honor of the blockbuster film.

An "Easter egg" is a popular term that refers to a hidden message.

Here's how it works: Google the name of the bad guy from the film -- that would be Thanos -- and click or tap on the Infinity Gauntlet.

That causes "the snap," which makes half of the results disappear.

Just click or tap again to watch the Time Stone work its magic.
