Argh! this makes me angry....there's a limit to being inspired by the transformers...the sound fx of transformation and the term "roll out" are directly picked out from transformers.For God's sake show some originality :evil: !

I agree with you too Knight4life.Although I can't wait for the new KR to air,I've been waiting in excitement ever since I heard that there would be a made series for it,they should start putting at least a little bit of originality,or else it's going to seem like some big KR/Viper/Transformers/FatF(Fast and the Furious) crossover to some people.

I've had a very positive approach abt the show so far (despite i being a critic myself)...but this teaser has just crossed the limit.I am fearing by the end KITT may transform into robot/boat or plane if they continue to rip-off stuff from the transformers.They shouldn't be doing this.They should produce teasers showing the desert-esque sequence like the original series had.The turbo boost teaser made me real happy,but now seriously i am tired of these transformation teasers.The new transformers movie was purely for the new wannabe high tech PS3,360,F&F 12 year old kids.What worries me that GST's target audience shouldn't be 12 year old kids :( i personally want GST to keep a check on things that we dislike or that may ruin the show.He should visit the forums and understand what i/we mean.

i think the morphing thing from the movie was ok, but the transformations and the ugly attack mode the cave the huge supporting characters is not looking to good for the orginal knight rider vibe..

FX23 i am not against transformations myself the thing is that an inspiration and ripping off stuff are 2 different things.The sound FX and the term "roll out" are from transformers.Bring in some of your own originality show some different teasers.The desert esque would be great.GST needs to talk to us.As far as the ugly attack mode as you say they had to give it a dragster look coz u are using a muscle car.I didn't like the neons,spoiler and thr rims.Rest was fine.

is it irony or are you serious? i mean, you DO know, that this third KR promo was a joke, right? weeezl put transformers sound over the KR preview for fun, this is not an official trailer and we won't be hearing the transforders sound nor Optimus Prime's "roll out" in the series!

WOOOSH! *Throws hand up over and past his head.*

Seriously though, this clearly wasn't a real promo and just a joke. I just gotta ask....

Why so serious?

I actually think this is quite funny, I cant believe someone could think this is a real promo!

I was checking out the HD version of the promo - thanks Neil! and I could`nt help but think of Transformers....

Everyones thinking the same thing!

"Wednesday 24th September were changing an American Icon.........."

into what "an Autobot?"

Sorry but I couldnt resist, Its just the irony of it.

Dont get me wrong Im seriously excited about the new show and Im not trying to put a damper on it, I cant wait for some new Knight Rider!!

What bothers me the most is that the dubbed SFX dont really sound out of place :D apart from the "Roll Out!!" I couldnt resist that one either!, I only added that one to make it obvious the SFX had been messed with! :D

I knew that myself that it was a joke,but I was talking about KI3T's morphing,and not the sound effects,because I knew *that* wasn't real. :lol:
