Knight Rider movie is a GO!

chud.com — Will you go see it? Apparently the problem was with Hasselhof and crew at odds with the studio about KITT talking. Now it's just a matter of time.

    The lead character was the car... KITT's always been black.
  • CountDuckula, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Is David Hasselhoff going to do the soundtrack?! :-)
  • übermensch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Oh that's great, an azn director to take on another American classic.

    Who else is willing to bet their entire net worth that the lead character will be black?
  • pnmerk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0hope the use same car not that knightrider 2000 crap!
  • cquinnd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Sammo Hung as Director. So it should at least have a good fight sequence or three.

  • estacado, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I wonder how they are going to make "Turbo Boost" believable. A "talking car" is slightly believable, with the current advancement in A.I., but Turbo Boost?
  • cssdev, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"Turbo Boost"

    Are you unaware that turbo boost is a real term in the automotive world? Turbo chargers create a forced induction by recycling exhaust pressure, thus creating boost. If it was a term used in the TV series and you were asking how they were going to replicate it in the movie, can't answer since I haven't seen the original myself.

  • eclectro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0They already did a crappy reunion show in 1991. But this is the reason I tuned in;

  • Dracos, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Did Universal hire some Warner Bros execs? That's the only thing I can think of to explain wanting to make a Knight Rider movie without the car talking.

    Since GM no longer makes Trans Ams, what kind of car will KITT be? If Bob Lutz wanted to keep Pontiac involved (if the marque isn't being axed), the only thing they have would be the Solstice. Would make for a nice marketing tie in, but I'm not sure it's right.

    It would be even cooler if this was how GM introduces the new F body cars... and one of Detroit's best kept secrets if that actually happens.
  • tryferos, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Well if David Hasselhoff is reprising his role as Michael Knight then you can be sure that KITT will be some sort of geriatric mobile like this http://www.thescooterstore.com/products/scooter_gogotravel.aspx with a mini bar strapped to the back. "Oh crap KITT, its the cops and I'm blowing a .15...turbo boost outta here, cause I aint going back to Betty Ford!"
