This is probably going to start a fight, but I think it needs to be said anyway.
Between ColeGrad01 and 86chvs10, I think I would feel a little bit more comfortable if somebody a little bit more mature, and who was alive and aware during the original Knight Rider run to pass judgment on whether a movie or a new show should be made.
Charlies Angels was a hit back in the 70's, and even though it was recreated, it is still a relative hit today. The entire Lord of the Rings Trilogy is based off of a very old series of books, but it is still a hit today. Spiderman comes from an old comic book, but it is still a hit to this day in its many remakes. Just because it is from a decade long passed, does not mean that it wouldn't be a hit today if done right, and if given a chance.
The same people who made Knight Rider popular back then aren't dead, you know. And somehow, some of this commentary is based off of personal feelings that haven't even begun to explore the facts.
There is nothing here against those who are younger who have a more mature outlook on life, and take in all the facts before they speak. But for those of you who do not want a movie, at least present a reasonable set of facts to present your case. Not that 'you don't like the new transams' or 'Hasselhoff is old'. Those just don't cut the mustard, and only serve to get on people's nerves.
You can't see the future. You can't tell if a remake or a continuation is going to be a hit or not, so at least give it half a chance before you poo all over it. Sith brought out reasonable facts in his opinion that seemingly ended up on this rumor site. But he never discounted the fact entirely. (And by the way, the part about emails to Hasselhoff's site and to Revolution, came from another post on this board a few months ago, from a frustrated fan who was trying to get their message through, and found out that the sites did not reply. They never have replied, they consider pushy, repeditive emails as spam.)
Give the movie a little bit more of a chance. If you don't want one, that's fine, but at least present a good based argument as for why it shouldn't happen, not things that basically could apply to anything, and can be proven wrong at the drop of a hat, if you just think about it.
