Re: Huge letdown about Peter Cullen voiceover

I'm not exactly sure what you were expecting? Cullen pretty much has 3 voices: his regular speaking voice, his "acting" voice (heard as Prime, in trailers/previews, KARR etc.) and then his lower tone, easy goin "Eeyore" voice. The man's voice is so powerful that's what he sells. ...

Re: Ratings for "Day Turns Into Knight"

Ouch. This really makes me wonder if the show needs a new time slot. Going up against "American Idol" for ANY show is near disastrous.

Re: KRO mentioned on SEIBERTRON.com, "KITT Must Die!" Article

It's funny how they bash a show about a talking car, yet find it natural to obsess over talking robots that transform into cars :lol: Fans of many scifi boards (including Transformers unfortunately) are very predisposed to bashing things non-objectively. I remember when "Beast Wars Transformer...

Re: Live Discussion - Day Turns Into Knight

On the other hand, I really don't have too much of a problem with Mike shooting/killing the bad guys (better him than KITT) though he shouldn't have seemed so upbeat about it. From the moment they arrive at the plant, Mike has a grim face on and becomes very "matter of fact" and doesn't c...

Re: Live Discussion - Day Turns Into Knight

What KI3T said at the end about Charles: Our father. That says something about how KI3T is progressing. Not only was it a great line, but Kilmer's delivery was fantastic. I genuinely felt sad once he said that because it was so true. It is odd to think about it, but in a way KITT is Sarah's brother.

Re: Live Discussion - Day Turns Into Knight

Remembered one other part I really loved. When KITT tapped into all the cams and guided Mike taking down the baddies. It was very much like the scene where when they first "met" in the pilot where the guided him out of the casino. KITT should be used like a military asset since that's how ...

Re: Live Discussion - Day Turns Into Knight

Oh man, what a fantastic episode. Seriously, Andron needs to write more stories - or become a story director or something. His scripts come closest to the potential I felt in the pilot movie (which makes sense). The way they handled the departure of Rivai and Graiman were interesting in that they di...

Re: SEE KARR's FRONT NOW!

Oh man that's awesome. Having been a fan of shows like Exo-Squad and the Battletech series of books, I really love the idea that on a TV budget a "mech" can be made in CGI and look that photorealistic. He does look mean, KI3T has his work cut out for him!

Fun episode, and I really, really found Gunner annoying and threatening at the same time, which was fantastic. I really enjoyed seeing each "mini-mission" escalate. I also enjoyed seeing KITT and Mike working together more without Billy, Zoe or anyone else running out into the field to hel...

Re: SEE the new KARR - NOW!

Looks awesome! This should be a really interesting fight. While I love the idea of KARR the "robot", I don't want KITT to transform into a robot as well. There are many more dramatic possibilities if he is just a well armed/defended car trying to take down the giant robot. I can imagine so...

While I agree we should take GST's word with a grain of salt, he never said KI2T would be featured. He merely expressed a desire to see it featured. I ha...

Re: I saw the new KARR

Interestingly, my first reaction to nu-KARR not being TOS KARR was a rather standard "that sucks, it doesn't make any sense etc. etc." However, giving it more thought, I think I can live with this. In the TKR universe, we got KRO, and while his story was different than TOS KARR's, it was s...

Re: Knight Rider Season Reduced - from 22 to 17

Do the dignified thing, admit the show is flawed, admit that it is doomed, and let it die a relatively dignified death. No letter-writing campaigns or anything like that, Just let it go and move on (and dust off your TOS box-sets) Most of us have admitted the show is flawed from the TV movie back i...

This is very sad news indeed. While I enjoyed the show, I know that it had its problems. I was hoping it would get to prove itself after the soft reboot. :( As for those who are celebrating its death, I find it very sad that such spiteful people call themselves "fans". Some of us enjoyed i...

Re: Live Discussion Thread: I Wanna Rock & Roll All Knight

Everything was so cool and original with things you hadn't seen before. What is original about KR08? The concept of a talking car helping to fight crime in the 80's was new and unique. It had not been done before. Since then, KITT and the concept of a talking car has turned into a cultural icon in ...

Re: ATTACK K.I.T.T.

I think the problem with Attack mode is - we have no idea why it differs from "normal" mode other than physical appearance (and possibly turbo boost). Generally the audience wants to be able to be "in the story" and participate somehow. In this case, if we knew exactly what KITT ...
