Give us attack KITT!

[Sue]

Forget Classic Concentration! Now if I were a clock counting down to the first day of shooting. I’d want to show us attack KITT before he leaks out on his own.

[Lost Knight]

As curious as I am to see the new version of the car, I'd rather be patient and inadvertently see it leaked. I mean, it's not very realistic to presume that I'll be able to make it to the series premiere without seeing or hearing about the new version, especially here. I remember when we first saw photos of the Attack car how many of us weren't impressed or thought they went for the The Fast and the Furious look. I think it might make it easier to accept if it's not officially presented this time. I think people will be less likely to dismiss it that way. I could be wrong, though.

It’s true. I don’t think I had seen KI3T at all when I sat down to watch the movie. It would be like peeking in the closet at your Christmas present before Christmas. … I was so into the story I wasn’t thinking hey he’s a Mustang, I was just thinking OMG Knight Rider is finally back… and when it got to those familiar beats in the new theme, I was like 6 years old all over again. But how is this not gonna leak out, and how can I not look.
Remember this,

if this happens to me, this will be me crashing my car. Hey NBC get a semi with some walls! But even if they do that, they gotta take him out to shoot the scene... Unless they do it all CGI?

Yes this is all well and good but remember that no one actually saw the Attack KITT until after the NBC press unveiling event at NBC studios. It's not unlikely they will just do the same thing and spill the beans before the episode airs.

If you intend to stay entirely spoiler free, don't watch anything on NBCU or read these boards because I gurantee between their advertising and spy reports the cat will be out of the bag before September gets here.

Yes, Victor, I agree, this is what I’m saying, I’m hoping for a nice legitimate official unveiling and I’m thinking its gotta come soon.

Now tell me, if all these other websites I haven’t heard of have managed to get a press pass, how come we haven’t? I so much rather see one of us in there asking the questions.

[Victor Kros]

I would assume because network execs see sites like this as nothing more then a "fan site" and not actual members of the media. One could argue that at conventions like San Diego Comic Con, other movie spoiler sites manage to get press credentials but it's really up to the studios to decide what they consider "online media" vs. press media.

It also goes back to that that old saying, "it's not what you know, it's who you know."

Agree.

Don't worry - we'll have Comicon covered. Specifics and lengths are still being worked out - but keep your fingers crossed!

[Victor Kros]

I will be at San Diego Comic Con as a special invited guest for the four days so I will be able to check out what is going on there personally and post back here with what I find.

I don't like the telefilm's KITT. I'd like to hope that it can only get better, but then again, there was the Knight 4000.

Ask and you shall receive!! I can’t wait!!! I get to see KI3T in person how cool is that! Well this certainly turned out to be a worthwhile thread topic.

That’s kinda ironic considering your user name. But hey, you had it first.
