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

Seeing it on TV now with the adjusted sound and knowing what to expect, it was a lot better than the first time watching it. I even had the feeling they synchronized KITT's scanner sound with the moving lights. I'm still no fan of the attack mode, but overall it was better than my first impression a...

Re: Knight In Shining Armor? One Word: Terrible

I'm going to agree that there were too many introductions. Let's take a look at the transformations: KITT in attack mode was probably seen on screen for maybe even a minute. It was ridiculous to show off to the viewers that he can turn into a pickup right away. I felt they also crammed the story li...

Re: NBC READ THIS -- 83% say you should modify dashboard

What bothers me most is, KI3T is a super car, with so many functions and a high tech hologrophic system and so on. And then there are cheap plastic buttons for rear-window heater, windscreen wiper, hazard-warning signal flasher, etc... This just doesn't fit. There are so many nice concept car design...

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

Overall I loved the episode. I liked: - the Knight Rider feeling (Mike moves like Michael in the casino) - the Knight Rider humor, it was sooo KR, I laughed out loud during some scenes (Mike being dragged into this room by two thugs, then coming out alone; "KITT: deploy the flares"). Aweso...

Re: ON THE FIRST EPISODE OF KNIGHT RIDER I NOTICED A MISTAKE ON

The bumper thing has an easy explanation. When they first shot Knight Rider they did some scenes to show the stuio bosses. There they used the bumper from your second snapshot. After the bosses accepted Knight Rider and ordered a pilot, they shot the rest of the series premiere, but they changed the...

Re: Will the intro change?

Yeah, I'd like to see an updated version of the classic intro. But there are some new characters and much more shooted scenes, an updated attack mode, so I guess it's likely we'll get a new intro. And for the backpilot intro, I reall thought that animation, when KITT truned into bubbles, was stupid,...

http://jalopnik.com/5047841/mini-off+ro ... ment-globe

I never thought this would or could really be some sort of future technology, when I saw KI3T's "holographic globe", and now I found this. So maybe this is visionary.

Re: Can someone animate this scanner for me?

The KI2T scanner looks awesome. I know it was difficult because of the prespective, but this is great. Nice job. :good: But if I may make a suggestion. In my opinion the scanner stops at both sides, until the glow of all lights except the one at the side is gone. KITT's scanner does not stop there. ...

Re: Jalopnik Drives KITT

Too bad they didn't modify the interior. But KITT looks really good on the fotos. The hood looks better than the self-made one they used in the backdoor pilot.

Man, I'd love to drive that car :P

Re: Jalopnik Drives KITT

The attack, although outwardly very different, doesnt actually have the gt500kr engine underneath. Nor does it need it as most of the scenes featuring it are going to be using sped up footage. I'd imagine in reality, the Attack Kitt is heavier than the standard car as well as having a smaller power...

Re: Mustang

I thought the same. The standard Mustang even looks sleeker because the hood is not so high and the front grill is smaller and has a different shape. And does not have the matt black stripes. I like this one better: http://cdn-www.rsportscars.com/images/ford/2006-ford-livernois-motorsports-mustang-g...
