Okay, so this is probably nothing, but I can't help but think there's something there...
I swear it looks like there's something etched into Bumblebee's ignition key, but I don't have the ability to zoom in on it. It's between 24 and 25 min into the film. Also, just after BB shuts himself off (same scene and time frame) there's a shot looking through the front window at Sam and there is something that looks like a piece of cardboard with a barcode on it being moved to the left out of view... no idea what it is.
just weird enough to make me curious.

I have no idea what you mean - I don't remember seeing this :-?

I'm not sure about that, either, but I saw something on the DVD I hadn't noticed in the theater.
When Bumblebee is the older Camaro, his gearshift seems to have some Cybertronian markins across it...or was that just me tripping out? :grin:

I think what you're seeing is the B&M logo.

This is the best zoom I can get on it.

You're welcome ^_^

I'm pretty sure the key says "For GM Cars". Good eye guys, but it's just what some keys say.

yeah I picked out the "GM" and thought about cars. Great eyes man. ^_^

hey... you don't think that's like a skeleton key that works in all the GM cars supplied do you?

Or maybe that's just a key as old as the car?

I imagine it's one of the original keys. Anyone else familiar with GM cars from the 70s?

Not me...

But what about the carboard thingy? I at first thought it was the chick's bag but... not so much now.

Thanks for the captures!
The GM keys in the eary 80's (dunno about late 70's) had the square GM logo etched in... which is why I was confused by the words on it... but it looks like, as someone else said, "for gm cars".

As for the cardboard thing... a fraction of a second before the capture, you can see more of a hand and some red print on the side of the mystery item. I honestly think that the hand is Sam's... but no idea whats going on.

The keys for a '79 Corvette Stingray are an oval key for the door, with an interior oval that surrounds the initials GM underscored, while the rectangular ignition key has an interior rectangle with the GM initials underscored. It's the same for either side on the keys, but I would assume that the generic logo would be the same on all the GM models.
