Knight is obviously not dead...
Knight's fighter explodes
Knight is later seen alive
Ergo: Knight did not explode with his fighter.

About what TC said, I dont see Knight alive again IN THE MOVIE again so...
we are talking about what happened to Knight in the movie!

Did you watch the movie, or just blindly pass judgment yet again? Whoops.

this is conjecture if only because the traitor subplot was removed from the movie

And Ghost, congratulations. You've brilliantly learned how to quote out of context, thus adding absolutely nothing to the conversation.

Dear Lehah, I'm afraid i am simply asking you to agree with my interpretation of the shots in the movie. LOAFs was an ambiguous answer, mine was more specific. Do you agree with my re-telling of the shots in the film, or do you have no eyeballs? It's not a hard question. I'm not saying LOAF has no eyeballs, his answer is simply vague, but you choose, basically, to trust a vague description over a specific description without even consulting the seemingly anal abundance of material you have about the source.
Hey, maybe you can tell me what the book says about Knight's death/mircaculous houdini escape act. A direct quote (with no fudging) would do great.
I never denied that it wasn't possible that night survived, with a little sticking your fingers in your ears and shouting 'i can't hear you' loudly in the face of the blinding logic that:
-knight is still in his chair 0.0 seconds before the shot where his broadsword is suddenly a ball of vapour. This is surely UNDISPUTABLE.
-When angel ejects, the camera focus is much closer on her fighter, yet it takes much much longer for her rapier and her ejection pod to move to separate fields of view, which leaves the possibility of Knight surviving as close to zero as you can get without it actually being zero. So going by the filmamaking techniques, it is clear that Knight in the movie is very, very dead.
Therefore it is extremely likely that Chris Roberts wasn't thinking 'gosh, this has to tie in with the continuity of the games' when making the movie.
I truly, honestly, painfully would love someone to give me anything to help me believe that Chris Roberts produced this movie with the intention of it fitting in with the games. I respect you people for coming up with ways of making the continuity fit, I really do, but if you start believing your fantasies you really are deluding yourselves. I really would love to believe otherwise. Although not too much because the movie is one of the lamest bags of arse I've ever seen.

The movie is meant to be the be all and end all, from what I understand. Therefore, what happens in the games is pretty moot if that is the case.
Yeah, we all know LeHah's stupid.
It's perfectly disputable that knight was not in his fighter when it turns to vapour... since it takes more than no time for the ship to completely explode.
No smartass, 1+1... he can´t die in WCM because he is alive in WC1
Roberts had stated that it was part of Wing Commander... and since he's still alive later in the series, he didn't die in the movie.
