Re: I AM FILING A LAWSUIT AGAINST LECTRIC ENTERPRISES

The reality of this game is basically this: these vendors view themselves as West Coats Customs or something but they're nothing more than garage operations. Orders will take forever! Trust, me, I've never dealt with Fullbright but I've dealt with pretty much everyone else. I really wish the vendors...

Re: Was turbo boost originally like super persuit mode?

Yup, I just saw TB as an adjustable rocket motor. In season one (just caught the episode on G4 but don't remember which one at the moment) Michael tells KITT to reverse the turbo booster to slow them down (they were heading for a cliff, Forget Me Not was the episode?). So I guess it can be adjusted ...

Re: Is Knight Rider 2000 truly canon?

I just see the 1982 KR and separate lines drawing off of it for KR2000, KR2010, TKR and KR2008.

Re: Is Knight Rider 2000 truly canon?

I've heard that KR2000 the series would have been like Viper and some sources tell me that Viper became what was left of the KR2000 concept. Apparently Dodge wouldn't let them have free Stealths just to modify them into an almost Banshee and to do it all on their own would have cost a fortune for NB...

Re: Graimen to reveal next generation KITT?

I honestly thought that was just the current generation Mustang in red. Is 2010 the start of a whole new generation or just a tweak to the existing one? I guess I should start researching, huh? Stupid, but I'd thought I'd mention it. I was at Toys R Us this weekend and saw a Matchbox car labeled &qu...

Re: Mike Traceur to Michael Knight

Now I enjoy Sarah in a bikini as much as the next guy (and after watching this weeks episode would love to spar off against her), but it seems that most of the episodes are spent worrying about whether or not Billy and Zoe are going to kiss and the sexual tension between Traceur and Sarah. Subtle an...

Re: ATTACK K.I.T.T.

What perplexes me is since KITT3K is technically classified they want to limit Attack Mode as much as possible, like it's like flying a classified stealth plane in broad daylight or something. Todays highways are filled with that kind of tuner crap so I don't think anyone would notice. If anything S...

I know it's rumor and conjecture but maybe that's going to be Hasselhoff's role in the future.

Glad to hear this. This is what I've wanted from the start. Every episode doesn't have to deal with the fate of our national security.

Re: Live Discussion Thread: Knight of the Living Dead

Yeah, the novels make him out to be a war machine more than an urban defender like KITT. I always like this theory better as KARR was in development for most of the 70s according to the novel and it makes sense that KITT was put together so quick in the pilot since most of the hard stuff had been wo...

Re: So new K.I.3.T isn't original K.I.T.T.?

Maybe it's just a mater of opinion, but I feel a lot more viewers will be drawn in by the old car, people born before the 90s that remember and love the classic series. We are still part of the shows intended demographic. I still believe the core of the fanbase is still the older fans and this show ...

Re: So new K.I.3.T isn't original K.I.T.T.?

This show is still building it's own foundation up, the want to establish the charactors and what they're doing before they delve into the past. Which in my opinion is a good Idea. Which is a prudent course of action. Not to sound like a TOS fanboy but the minute KI2K shows up it's all over for the...

Re: This show really is growing on my FAST!

I agree, it's a great start so far. I just see danger ahead as this has the potential of quickly becoming a tv-budget special effects reel. I'm hoping we get the same great plots (at least like seasons 2 & 3 of TOS) and character development of the first series. I see some commitment to the deve...

Re: Turbo Boost only in Attack Mode?

To me attack mode is nothing more than fluff and the transformations seem to be a quick and easy way to advertise more Ford vehicles. It's been said that SPM and attack mode are (will be) two separate things so I'm sure KI3K will morph into a Ford GT (or some other flashy Ford concept vehicle) when ...

Re: Turbo Boost only in Attack Mode?

I wonder if the same principle worked on KI2K? I'm definitely starting to see more of a Viper connection to this new show.
