How is it "subliminal"? All Ford logos and vehicles get prominant placement, as do the Snake logos on KITT.Stealthwalker wrote:1. Get rid of the subliminal & very obvious advertising of "Ford" on the show. (For crying outloud we all know "K.I.T.T." is a "Ford"!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "Give it a Rest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!")
The characters you mention are the feature characters. Carrie didn't even appear in this week's episode. And since is KITT is the only "super car" in the show, how is there a TKR feel?Stealthwalker wrote:2. Eliminate the whole "Team Knight Rider" vibe of this show & break it back down to Mike, K.I.T.T., Sarah & Charles it keeps things really "simple" & preserves the essence of the way the original series was handled.
Considering we're only two eps in (and the 2nd seems very well received), I'd say we're already heading that way.Stealthwalker wrote:3. Better writing within story lines & dialogue.
Actually some of the footage (mostly the digital stuff) was created for the credits sequence. The original KR opening sequence did feature clips from episodes as well.Stealthwalker wrote:4. Redo the opening credits exactly like the original series. (Instead of showing a montage of clips.)
Except that most rants are just that, a lot of complaining with little substance. 90% of rants out there are "Do this exactly like the original show". If that was what NBC was going to do, they'd just reair the original KR and save gobs of money. I've seen few reviews that actually identify weaknesses in the show and then suggest solutions in a positive manner.Stealthwalker wrote:5. Pray that all of these blogs, complaints & etc. are at least taken seriously enough to the "powers that be" of this show & "NBC " & hopefully they'll "realize & maybe even have some sort of epiphany & say to themselves "perhaps we could use these suggestions that everyone's been "Ranting & Blogging about."
The VFX team and the KR team in general are very aware of this site and the fan comments out there. That's part of the reason we even got "Turbo Boost" back, so I'd say we are being listened to - but that doesn't mean GST and gang don't have their own stories to tell either.
