IESB today has the above clip and four others from the upcoming Knight Rider TV movie. I don’t want to ruin the surprise, but it’s pretty much the worst thing ever.
I love all the funky, diagonal camera angles – as if shooting everything sideways will keep us from noticing how crappy it is. It’s like watching Viva Laughlin* through a keyhole! Brilliant!
*Video after the jump – a must see

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Flames on Optimus > Shitt on KITT
I want a German guy in one of those ridiculous David Hasselhoff costumes driving a Big Wheels through a Sonic.
It’s funny how the tires only squeal in between when the characters are talking. Not funny "hahaha," because this show is more depressing than that, but funny "hmmm, someone/some people should be engulfed in flames for this creative endeavor."
wow…whoever thought up that Viva Laughlin has some serious balls to think that would have been successful.
i wish i would have watched it. i’m kinda into shit that’s got balls.
That dude couldn’t when best new male performer at the Blue Boy awards. And he’s really fucking gay.*
*Disclaimer: I don’t know if there’s such a thing as the Blue Boy awards but it was about the gayest sounding thing I could think of on short notice. It was either that or "Travolta" and that just didn’t have the same zing.
I’ve never seen the original Knight Rider, was Kitt always that douchey?
Jesus, and I posted that before I even watched the second video. Holy fucking hell is that second video, um, shit I don’t know. Terrible? Infectiously homosexual by nature? Make it stop.
I’ve never seen the original Knight Rider, was Kitt always that douchey?
No way! KITT was Mr. Feeney!
No way. KITT was ballin’ outta control in the old ones. I totally would have been bff with it/him/whatever.
*Googles Mr Feeney* Was he literally voiced by Mr. Feeney, or was he a aloof teacher/principal in his spare time?
+n
this looks badass. sick car!
Guy’cha, tough crowd…
Michael: "If you drive like that again, I’m going to put sugar in your gas tank."
KITT: "Mmmmm…"
I bet the new KITT takes it up the tail pipe.
Is that the real clip? Seriously? That guy is actually in the movie being paid to "act"? No fucking way. Not since William McNamara have I seen such precise "acting".
"I’llputsugarinyourgastank." *breath through mouth, listless shrug*
The producers wanted Dane Cook for the lead role, but the movie’s budget was only $40 and they spent $36 on a Taco Bell run for Val’s voiceover work, so they just dragged some stoner out of his frat house and asked him if he liked "Vicious Circle."
Burnsy PWNS Knight Rider.
The new KITT runs on Red Bulls and In-N-Out burgers.
more like douche rider. POW!
Does anyone else think its a bit egotistical for Sydney Poitier to name his daughter Sydney Poitier.
?
No more odd than Pimp C being remembered at the Grammys.
Val Kilmer does such a convincing monotone. That’s talent baby!
Viva Laughlin>Cop Rock
Viva Laughlin>Cop Rock> New Knight Rider
had to fix it myself
Eibmoz, the Susan Lucci of the Cotw, perpetual durster
What?
Oh, Susan Lucci.
Hey, at least Cop Rock was more realistic than CSI: Miami. I’ve seen the police break into spontaneous song and curiously well-coordinated choreography. However, I’ve never seen a ginger who wasn’t a total pussy. The sunglasses are accurate though. In the sun, those fuckers’ eyeballs will literally melt like that Nazi in Raiders of the Lost Ark. But funnier.
If I acted out the Nuremburg trials with finger puppets it would be more realistic than CSI Miami. And more entertaining than the new Knight Rider
I hate David Caruso. I call that Csi the Howdy Doody Show. Did you ever see Jade? im suprised I can still see after that.
I bought a silver snuff box containing David Caruso’s pubes off of eBay for like, five bucks. In retrospect, I think I overpaid.
I often dream that I am KITT. David Hasselhoff is riding me. Its pretty romantic.
I can’t believe they made melanie griffiths look somewhat normal… antonio banderas must have been on some pretty heavy sedatives when he made the dicision to marry this dump. Am I the only one that thinks it looks like someone tried to put a fire out on her face with a baseball bat. Bitch is Ugly.
lechium
FUCK MIKE!!!
No seriously, fuck him right up his stupid metaphorical ass. That was the worst acting I’ve ever seen period, and that’s saying something, I’ve seen Jacktion! act.
I thought Cindy Williams was the original voice of KITT
everytime i see projects like these i always think about, not the idiot that came up with the idea, but the OTHER idiot who said "yeah, awesome. here’s the money you need to go produce that." and then all the other idiots who did. not one of them had the brains or the balls to go ‘hey, wait a minute. what the hell are we working on again?"
