KITTs personality
Posted: Thu Aug 21, 2008 1:24 pm
Has anyone else noticed that when referring to the original series we refer to KITT as a 'He...' but the new car is an 'it.....'??
I hope this is something the writers of the new series address and make the car feel more human. Even by the end of KOTP, fans already felt KITTs 'humanity' and personality which was accompanied by a sense of humour ("after all, WE'RE only human, right...?")
We've already been told that Ki3t will be gradually 'learning' throughout the series, which is going to be great and does make sense of the 'HAL' approach initially but we need to get the 'buddy factor' back.
What I mean by that is the way DH used to talk to KITT (calling him 'Pal or Buddy etc) or pat it like a horse etc, treating the car as another character rather than just a tool to get the job done...
