Unusual that the main character's car has a real plate, usually they put fake or prop plates. |

I found that small, independent movies such as this often display real Calif. plates. Why these movies have real plates and mainstream bigger budget movies don't is a mystery. I don't see the need to hide real plates. Perhaps there is a rule or mandate by the DMV(s). Technically the DMW owns the license plates and the driver's license in our wallets. So I guess they have the right to dictate their placement in media. We are not alloiwed to alter or deface these items. Take the boring standard Calif. plate color scheme of red on white. Ive seen these spray painted to the desirable 1963-1969 yellow on black color scheme. While a cool idea, it would likely anger the DMV. |

I don't think there really is any legal prohibition on showing real license plates in movies or TV shows. The fact that real license plates are seen in films seems to show that's not the case. I think the use of prop plates serves a more practical purpose. Obviously, prop plates are used if the production is set in a different place or time period. In some cases, the plates that come with the car may not be appropriate. If the car is part of a product placement deal, it may have Michigan manufacturer plates ot California dealer plates instead of regular passenger plates. I think the most important reason to use prop plates is because it allows the production to have control of the plates. For example, a scene may need to be reshot, but the car used isn't available. Insead of halting production until the car can be found. The production team can go get a car that's the same year, make, and model. The prop department puts on a prop plate and the viewer can't tell it's a different car. The same goes for when there are multiple cars used as the same car. There's the nice "hero" car for close-up shots, a "stunt" car (with a roll cage, five-point harness, and beefed-up suspension), and maybe an older beat-up model that can be destroyed in an explosion. With prop plates, the production can keep the plates and make more if they are damaged. They don't have to rely on the DMV for the plates they use. -- Last edit: 2012-10-13 01:32:17 |

I though all EX models came with a factory sunroof. I was baffled but then realized there is a sunroof on this Odyssey and they just painted over it. You can make out the markings if you look closely. |
