Appearance of KI2T in premier?!?!

Post by knightfever » Wed Sep 24, 2008 11:51 pm

This may just be a coincidence, but as I was watching the "Shining Armor" episod on TV for the first time, I noticed something I hadn't seen the previous 4 times I watched it online. In the sequence where KI3T, Mike, and Sarah are in the tunnel, just as KITT tells Billy that Mike and Sarah need oxygen to survive, the camera focuses in on KITT's voice modulator, and there is a reflection of light that appears as two white squares of light on either side of KITT's red "voice" light, and to me it looks like the Knight 2000 at night with the headlights up. I don't have the knowledge to put a screen shot of this up on the forum, so if someone else out there wants too, it would be cool to look at. I looked closely throughout the rest of the episode and didn't see the same thing, so I wonder if it could be an "easter egg" Peace out. :kitt:

I assume this is what you're referring to:

I'd say it's just a coincidence.

Wow, I must have watched it about 6-7 times now, including in HD on iTunes. I have never noticed that before... I did notice that in that same scene, and in other scenes, you could see the KI2T's original 3 bar voice display "behind" the new "splashed" look in the sphere... 8)

I see what you mean, but aren't those white spaces the windows on either side of the car? It would seem to match where the reflections would be from the globe's point of view...

I dun know, I think that's stretching it. I agree it looks more like the reflections of the windows. If Kitt's headlights were up, his fog lights would be on (assuming it's season 3/4...I think...-shrug-) and they'd show up too. Interesting thought though! But I like how the red of the voice box is sitting where Kitt's scanner would be if that was a reflection of his headlights :P

I want to be sure I was clear. I wasn't implying that is was a reflection of KI2T, I just thought the way the light from the windows reflecting onto the globe on either side of the red voice light could be taken as a representation or resemblence of the 2000. It probably is a mere coincidence, and I will add that on the pic above, which I assume is a high def pic, it doesn't look as much like it as it did on television on a regular directv signal and an older analog tv. And as to the comment on the fog lights, I totally agree, what this really put me in mind of is the scene in "Knight of the Phoenix" where Michael is in the "lab" for the first time and out of the darkness we see the scanner light for the 1st time then the headlights pop up. Either way, I appreciate all the comments. Peace out

Oooohhhh, now I get your meaning. Ok :P Yes, that scene is honestly the best scene from any sci-fi show/movie ever. (Well...maybe it's second to Karrs intro scene...hhmm...)

OH yeah, anytime I watch "Knight of the Phoenix" I still get chills every time it gets to that scene. It makes me feel like I'm 7 years old again watching it for the first time :D
