Re: Knight Rider Movie News

The story spawned a spin-off and several TV movies. Oh, don't you just love how fact-checking goes out the window in simple articles? Let me help them out: it spawned one TV movie, "Knight Rider 2000" . As some fans know, "Knight Rider 2010" had nothing to do with the series, ju...

Re: This is how KITT should look like

Plus I'd like to add, now that I think of it, that any new series or film will no doubt not feature Hasselhoff. So this would be a great way to cameo him in. Say a new series comes out ,and this time it's good and faithful to the original and has a new driver and a new car and a climactic episode de...

Re: This is how KITT should look like

Well, one of the issues I've always had with new cars for K.I.T.T., is the visability factor. Michael could sit in K.I.T.T. across the street and not draw attention from the bad guys -- the car sort of blended in. But in today's world, that model/look, is fast becoming out-dated and now any bad guy ...

I'd like all those ugly Mustang's to get sucked into a black hole, followed by the guy who designed it. And please, for all that is holy, will police departments stop using them as cop cars? UGLY!!! Sinfully so.

Re: Don Peake's Knight Rider Soundtrack Releases 2013

I'm glad all these are finally happening. After the initial report of cancellation from lack of funds and all mnentions being removed from the H-MR website, I had lost hope.

If you ever need to know the credits for a film or TV show, go over to IMDb.com.

Here's the crappy KR2000 IMDb page:

Re: 'Knight Rider' movie begins to step on the accelerator

That's great that you spent that time to make those changes. I didn't even ask. :-)

Yup, I think I have a winner here. I'd make other definements, but I'm definately falling for this as the new K.I.T.T.

Re: 'Knight Rider' movie begins to step on the accelerator

That's the first half-way decent new K.I.T.T. I have seen!

Re-design the lights (too bigand oddly shaped), cover the ugly wide-open grill, and put the same buh caps from the original series on it, and I might like it.

Shatner hoped to make new Trek projects, and wanted in on the JJRebootrams's first film, but none of that came to pass. What the Hoff wants, and what Weinstein wants, are two very different things. If Harvey is involved, here's what you'll get: Knight Rider blasphemey with a terrible song in the ope...

Re: What do all those buttons on the roof do?

That's the beauty -- K.I.T.T. can drive himself; take over temporarily.


Somebody correct me if wrong, but I swear one episode (don't know if anymore) Michael pressed some of them right before the turboseat boost -- where he stands on the seat and it propels him upward to a rooftop.

It's not the same theme. I just went over to Hulu.com and watched that ending. I know the music from the Peake score, almost by heart.

There's all kinds of fees.

And a myriad of other fees depending on what kind of release they make. Do ...
