Re: Episode 1 - What did you LIKE? NO RANTS!

KITT and his already evolving personality - The way he was going to do what was needed to save Michael and Sarah (just as KI2T was programmed to preserve human life) - The way he called Michael, "Michael," like KI2T - The reference to him learning - The way he's obviously trying to underst...

Re: WE can make a difference with Knight Rider

Agreed with some of your suggestions Victor. But a few I disagree with... "I dislike the fact that every time Michael wants to do something off the grid, KR can listen in and see everything that goes on in the car. This means in any given situation when he turns off the monitoring, the KR team ...

Re: Knight In Shining Armor? One Word: Terrible

I liked it. No, it wasn't perfect. Some of the artistic design choices were a bit odd...like the underbelly of the vehicle in 'Super-Pursuit' mode. My problem wasn't that the underbelly was 'solid.' That actually makes sense, in that a high-tech car would need to not look like a normal vehicle under...

Re: black river - nbc liberal bias

But notice that Mike was also in Iraq, as an actual soldier, and he's portrayed as flawed but honorable character. Note that Black River is a "private security company." They're not part of the government, they're contract work. What did Mike say? "They're just in it for the money.&qu...

Re: Defending criticism of the new show (criticisms welcome)

But KI3T also has 26 years of technilogical advancement on him compared to the beginnings of KI2T. Also, when Micheal was arrested and stuck in jail, KI2T was smart enough to resuce him in that pilot episode. And also in the same episode, when he got pulled over for being asleep behind the wheel, K...

Re: Defending criticism of the new show (criticisms welcome)

Let's not forget how KI3T had no clue if the old man (i keep forgetting his name) Krainer or whatever was unconsious or dead. Wasn't he in surveilence mode? He's supposed to be more up to date and on the ball than KI2T ever was and KI2T knew what time it was. 1. It would appear that they're trying ...

Re: My Review: New Knight Rider!!!!!!

Charles was prepared for the impact and braced himself, the other guys didn't and at least one of them wasn't dead, they didn't even show the others, did they? So Charles, just by willing it to be so, could somehow "brace" himself such that he didn't get hurt in a crazy crash. We really n...

Loybound brought one up that I too wondered, and don't have a good answer for: Anyone notice the plot hole where they explain how KITT"s firewall was cracked? They say that the bad guys had access to KITT's blueprints and what not when they stole the hard drives. But later, they reveal that THE...

Re: Threesome and Lesbian Scene Trash

As I've said elsewhere. I didn't like it. Didn't think it was necessary (I mean, technically you don't need a threesome to make the point he's a womanizer or a guy who's let himself go...though I do agree it's one of the quickest and most efficient ways of doing so). And were I a parent...I don't ag...

A couple more: 1. The whole being dropped off by a plane at the end thing was lame. Well, except that since they were in Prague, using a semi to get there just wasn't going to work...and would take way too much time even if it could. 2. Why didn't KITT shut down his wireless internet connection when...

Defending criticism of the new show (criticisms welcome)

Hello, all. I thought it might be fun to have a thread where we look at criticisms folks have of the new show and evaluate them in a quasi-orderly manner. I was hoping the thread won't devolve into "I like this cause I like this style" or "I think this is dumb because it's dumb,"...

Re: KR - Live Chat - ALL DISCUSSIONS HERE! SPOILERS! EAST COAST

Actually, Carrie Rivai did say something like "this time we'll be picking up the tab" in response to Mike's potential damage being caused either to the car or collateral damage from missions. So yes, they'll be funded by the FBI. True, she did say that. For what it's worth my understandin...

Re: Kilmers voice

I like Kilmer's voice here. I was anti the Optimus Prime tpye gravely voice we were hearing in some promos. What ended up in the show was more appropriate in my opinion. It's a bit robotic, but with hints of a Data-like "I want to be a real boy" quality. And looking at it from a logistic s...

Re: Movie Review - What they did right and wrong

Said something like this on another thread, but thought I'd mention it here as well. The needless titilating stuff in the beginning like Mike with 2 girls and agent Rivai being lesbian, I wasn't a big fan of either. As a Christian who tries to look at the world from a Bible-based moral perspective, ...

Re: KR - Live Chat - ALL DISCUSSIONS HERE! SPOILERS! EAST COAST

Hello. New to the board. My reactions, for what it's worth. 1. This is a sequel, as opposed to a remake. For that I'm grateful. We don't see those as often these days. 2. Regarding possible continuity issues with the original show: First, I'm glad this can even be an issue (see #1). Second, it's too...
