Reviews and Feedback

No, if you wanted an Airwolf Reboot to look good and clean, you would either need to use REAL Aircraft which would be as expensive and require skilled pilots equally skilled to a team of CGI artists and animators. Either way, it would still cost the same, but CGI will always look fake to anyone with a keen eye for details, and it will be just as expensive as the real thing. So if you are going to do it, you might as well use the real thing. Probert Designs". probertdesigns.com. Archived from the original on 11 June 2016 . Retrieved 22 June 2016.

The potential for a new Airwolf franchise is certainly there: it’s just a matter of finding its niche. Focusing on a new generation of fans – while delivering some tidbits of the always-effective nostalgia bait – would ensure this reboot’s success. Let’s just hope that, whoever decides to resurrect the franchise, keeps true to the original’s totally rad attitude. The only saving grace that Helicopters have over Modern Generation Fighter Jets and Stealth Aircraft is the simple fact that it is a helicopter, in that they can move slowly, carry cargo, requires less fuel, and can hover and make use of low-flying with ease. But if you make it a Stealth Helicopter you cut out all of those features and turn it into a Warmachine. exclusively. And Airwolf wasn’t a show about war, it was small stories about doing what is right, about saving people, bringing down criminals, and saving the day.ARTISTS RE-SALE RIGHT.

Three different shows about crime-fighting helicopters debuted on primetime television in January of 1984 – one on each network. Like most things in Hollywood, this wasn’t a coincidence. After John Badham’s Blue Thunder became the surprise box office hit of the summer of 1983, TV scrambled to capitalize on its unexpected success. NBC won the race with Stephen J. Cannell’s Riptide on January 3. ABC was next with the TV spin-off Blue Thunder from producer Roy Huggins three days later. CBS was last with Airwolf on January 22.
