This just isn't David Hasselhoff's year. He recently found himself squeezed out of his role from the 80s series, "Knight Rider." The Hoff was livid when he discovered that the producers of the movie version planned on re-casting the lead, police officer Michael Knight, essentially leaving David in the dust. Despite David's frustration with this new development, he believes that there will be a place for him in the film. According to David:
"I think fans will demand that I at least pop up in a cameo. I made the show and fans deserve it."I like to imagine David and the original KITT sitting at a dive bar, somewhere in Hollywood, bitching about how the business has changed and no one has respect for the people who helped make it was it is today and ending it with a tearful embrace of, "I love you man. Seriously, I know you're a car, but I do--I love you."

Well, I'm boycotting this film. There is only one Michael Knight and that's Hoff. I bet if he sucked in the gut, he'd still squeeze into the black leathers too.
I might even picket outside the local cinema.
Stop hassling the Hoff!!
I shudder to think who'll be cast in the role instead. Someone like Chris O Donnell.
They should cast Colin Farrell if they have any sense. Then I'll call off the boycott.

I do not like this film, it is so boring.

I'm no fan of Hoff (mainly his musical career), but I did love him as Knight Rider. And there is no reason why he can't reprise the role - he's not looking THAT old. What crap. Why do they continue to remake things - they always end up much worse than the original...Dukes of Hazzard, Starsky & Hutch, Bewitched...I could go on but it's depressing.
