Some of the things they actually got right in the 2 hour mov

The desert driving scenes were pretty cool as the old show had.them.
When Mike wasn't driving he had his fingers touching eachother at the tip as Michael did in Chariots of Gold when
Michael was trying to rescue Bonnie and she pulled a gun on him.Small detail that crossed my mind.
By not having any technical gauges and allowing the cars computer to run the vehicles systems was in a way simaler to the original series.I wonder if the producers or directors really researched the original series details for some scenes.

There's no firing lasers or missiles as team knight rider and knight rider 2010 did.This seemed in more of traditional microjam and ramming instead of weapons.

I didn;t like in place of wrist watched they were using wireless headsets for comn links.Looked to much like viper for my taste.

In the pilot Knight of The Phoenix,Michael learns of the cars personality after the car has a short while to analyze his new driver.In the new pilot the daughter learns of the personality behind the car before she realizes it is a car.

i like the cast, I liked the car, I liked it's voice. I didn't like the car's capabilities and functions. I thought the car was going to have a mini drone and a laser guided missle defense system. Didn't I read that somewhere? The show does have a whole lot of potential.

I don not mind the plane as much as I first missed the part that they were in another country. I think that should have been explored more in the original series instead of that convertible mode and SPM. The CGI was a bit overdone, but that would probably die down alot more in a weekly series.

I like the font that they used for the Knight Rider title page.

I think the drone was a joke, at least I hope it was. It'd make me wonder if they were more of a fan of Viper. >_>
The new and again improved evil's advertisement is currently too long and too badass to display here. But let's just say that with now 50% more evil, this **** is great! :twisted: :skar:
