Does anyone know anything about it?
i hear its called Riddick and the Underverse and it will be relased this year or next.
Where'd you hear this?
Wiki and some fan sites and i think the riddick site about 3-4 months ago
Ah yes...I read this on a Vin fansite....dont know any other details...
I reckon this would be awesome...I loved Chronicles... 8)
I don't know that I'm crazy about this...CoR was so different than Pitch Black, I cringe at what would happend with a 4th film (counting Dark Fury as the 2nd).
OH GOD PLEASE NO!!!!!!!
Vin said he'd do one if it was more like Pitch Black. Which is good because Chronicles Of Riddick wasn't.

Vin only have been in two good movies IMO. Everything has been pop corn flicks or just plain bad. Vin is just a eye candy actor and everyone likes him because he has been one good or a popular movie.
There have been rumors about this since Chronicles came out.
Chronicles was fun, not much else.
Supposedly the sequel deals with King Riddick taking on the necromonger empire.
I didn't like CoR too much. The story and mythos of Riddick grew too big too fast and really ruined what could have been a decent B-movie franchise.
There were some fantastic sequences in Riddick though.
The converter burning in the sunlight.
The race from the sun, that was excellent.
Some CGI did look incredibly bad though, like the spikey dogs.
Yeah, there was some cool stuff in CoR, but I'm taking issue with the large arc of the plot and the direction it went.

That what i heard and that Riddick make it there.
I liked the direction they took Chronicles in. Pitch Black was good, but I don't see them being able to make a series like movies off of it. I felt it was bit too much like Aliens in some aspects anyway. I think Chronicles helped to deepen and make more interesting Riddick's character. In Pitch Black your wondering, who is this guy and why is he like this?
The end sequence wasnt all that good either, I mean we all know its hard for riddick to see in the daylight (hence the shades or whatever that thing is) so why was he able to fight in broad daylight so perfectly??

He was inside a Necromonger ship wasn't he? I doubt indoor light is as harmful to his eyes as being outside in the daylight.

There was no differece between the light inside and the light outside. Actually it looked much brighter inside the ship than outside.

It didn't feel like a sequel. I mean, it didn't have any major plot ties to Pitch Black other than having three of the same characters in the film again.
I didn't mind that it didn't follow PB so much. In fact, I like the notion of following Riddick. I just think the plot of CoR pushed the series too big and epic too fast. An uber undead militant religion conquering the universe that Riddick becomes the king of? A bit too much. Thats the sort of thing you build towards.
The plot in general was a bit outlandish, I agree. But at least Dark Fury did a great job of tying the two films together.

::)
Just because it looked brighter doesn't mean anything. The light inside and the light outside is still different do to UV rays and such. Same reason you can sit inside your house all day with all the lights on and not get sunburned and go outside in what seems like equal light and come in a crispy critter.

I like the pangolin looking cats. I think they looked great!
I actually enjoyed both Riddick movies so far, Pitch Black reminded me so much of Alien, only they were against predatory bat creatures, also liked the diverse crew, Chronicles was even better, movie really showed how much of a badass Vin is :)

i agree, i find it fun to see the universe from riddicks point of view..
I say RVP
riddick vs predator....to me thats a match made in heaven
That'd work in the comics, I doubt many folks would go for a movie.
I liked COR it is a shame it was not a big hit cos im sure we would of seen more riddick movies in the pipe work by now. The animation called Dark Fury is also good, it is based between PB and COR. And the xbox game butchers bay was very good. So i hope we see more riddick in the near future.
CoR DC was much better than the theatrical release; it made more sense.

Butcher's Bay was an awesome game. Loved that game!
I haven't seen Dark Fury yet.
Anyone know if we will see more Furians in the next movie? I hope they don't just drop this.
Aren't they remaking Butchers Bay?

I woun't mind a sequel because the last movie was cool and ok at the sametime.

I have alot of respect for this guy...and Ive liked all of his films so far...Find me Guilty was very good...Pacifier is one of my favs... :)
I think Saving Prative Rayn is his best movie.
I understood it as this: David Twohy had wrote a trilogy of films, Chronicles of Riddick being the first, but since it bombed, Universal opted not to make the other two films. Looking at the scope of Chronicles, its clear they intended this trilogy to be an uber-blockbuster endeavor. I bet a Chronicles 2 will never happen as intended. If it ever did get made, it would be a lower budget affair like Pitch Black was. Good luck getting financier's to back a sequel to a film that bombed considering its production budget.

It isn't really a re-make so much as it an upgraded version for the 360.

I think he's had some entertaining films I liked a few of his some when he's not the main character but just a part of the group...
The Fast And The Furious
Knockaround Guys
A Man Apart
Pitch Black
Saving Private Ryan
I'm interested in seeing Babylon AD too whci I think looks quite good.
Pitch Black was good but not great. A Man Apart was ok and i did not like The Fast And The Furious. Saving Private Ryan and Iron Gaint are his best movies IMO.
Well, wasn't Saving Private Ryan was more of a Tom Hanks film?
I know but he still in it. His death in the movie was funny :D!

Something like that ;), Vin is bad actor in IMO and he would runin the movie even more if he was killed in Saving Prtive Rayn.
QuoteIt was more than "ok"...
I diss argee with you, the story was hard to flow and all the action and drama in the movie was not that great. Demetrius Hicks (Larenz Tate) was annoying and the music was the only good thing about the movie.
It has a 9% on rottentomatoes.com and i argee on most of the crtics reviews.

New Riddick movie? Awesome.
First off, Pitch Black was ok. Great characters, great story and dialogue, but! A story like Pitch Black and these type of characters belong in a film which has over the top action scenes and is loaded with suspense. Pitch didn't have those two vital elements I felt, it was ok but could have been waaaay better I thought!
It had so much potential it could have been as good as Alien. It just wasn't as scary as it should have been and the action scenes in Pitch Black sucked....wow did they suck. Lots of potential though....but it wasn't a bad movie.
Chronicles Of Riddick on the other hand ruled! Great special effects, over the top action scenes, great characters and fantastic set designs :o
I just hope the next Riddick can atleast live up to the last one.

Yeah i hated the remake, the original movie was so good because the characters where good and you care about them. The 1978 version of Halloween was great and scary because of suspense not blood and gore.
Rob Zombie trys to make scary with gore and blood but he fails. I don't see how people like the remake then the 1978 version? Halloween should have neven been remade in my opinion.
Quotethe original movie was so good because the characters where good and you care about them.
well the remake was meant to focus more on michael so of course those charcters wont be as good anymore..

i quite liked chronicles...mainly for the fantastic design and look,almost a modern day blade runner...ALMOST hehe in visual terms anyway.
vins new film babylon AD looks good for visual design again too...i wonder what it is with vin that he keeps getting involved in good looking films....even fast n furious looked good.
Most of his major films are very special FX heavy which takes away from everything else. That's the problem.

When did he give any sort of indication he doesn't like
anything? All he pretty much said was that he doesn't care for unnecessary visuals.
u all should know i dislike too much cgi but some films do need alot of visual effects.
blade runner for instance...again.
vins sci-fi films have required alot....especially chronicles,its kinda like a modern day dune now i think about it...very ambitious and ahead of itself maybe.it was alittle confusing if i remember....lots of strange characters and an 'outthere' plot,but like dune and runner its visuals make the film really,they are needed.
as i said i quite liked it for that reason really....i like it when people try to stretch the ideas and styles of a film...thats why i love tim burton.his work is getting very iconic now but he always takes a concept and twists it to his own fraky vision,brilliant,if yr goth hehe
chronicles was like that....they took a sci-fi event film and tried to change it,shape it and make it into something different and unique,not like run of the mill sci-fi action romps......eg.fifth element (apart from the costume design),star treks,avp2 etc...
ok it flopped abit but the effort was there to see.
The only reason I got into CoR was because of Butcher Bay, great game.

Same, I saw the film after I beat the game.
Pitch Black 7/10 - Great visuals, Rahda Mitchell (she's hotness :-* ) but Vin Diesel is the worst actor I've ever seen in my life, monsters were ok but nothing that great.
Chronicles 6/10 - Great visuals, but it was PG-13 (haven't seen unrated version) and some dumb plot about Necromongers and Vin Diesel becoming a king, wtf.
Btw, anyone ever wonder how the hell they talked Dame Judi Dench into CoR? Wtf was she thinking?

Awesome as she may have been, this movie seems to be below her as an actress of her class.
I wouldn't go that far, but I'll admit, I was surprised she agreed to star in it since she isn't a sci-fi actress.
they really did rush the story too fast for COR, instead of just outright introducing the Necromongers , they should had Riddick being pursued by bounty hunters across the galaxy while eventually tracking down the the employers leading up a 3rd film where he duels with the Lord Marshal and becomes leader.

Yeah, but then they would have to make a 4th movie! ;D I don't feel it was rushed, especially when at the first of Pitch Black it starts you out with no back story to Riddick or what is going on. I don't feel Chronicles pacing was all that different from Pitch Black.

EXCL: David Twohy on Continuing the Riddick Saga
Source:Edward Douglas August 1, 2009
Quote:
"I've sketched out two ideas for the next installment," he told us during the exclusive interview. "Vin and I have decided on one approach of those two, and there's some interest at the studio level but it would be as a PG-13 film, and we don't want to do that anymore. That's one of the concessions we thought we made with 'Riddick' that we shouldn't have made. We also spent too much money and we were too ambitions, so yes, if we do go back to a third one, it will be focused again, hopefully again the same way that 'Pitch Black' was, and we'll spend less money doing it. We're just trying to figure out how much less we can do it for, because I don't think Vin is going to work for scale again."
"The third movie would be more modestly-scaled and it would probably feel more like 'Pitch Black' then 'Chronicles'," he continued. "It will always be Riddick-centric. If the question is whether it will be more like the first one than the second one, the difference is that yeah, you can sell it on its creatures and say 'This is a creature fest and we're going to go out as us vs. the creatures' but that's like a lot of different movies. However, the hallmark of a good movie, and I think 'Pitch Black' is a good movie, is that even if you took the creatures out of the picture, you'd still have some pretty interesting character dynamics going on within that group, and it's almost like you can tell the same story without the creature or substitute some other external pressure on the group, because there were internal pressures as well that were interesting. So was it really a creature feature? It had the hallmarks of it, the trappings of a creature movie, but it also had pretty good characters."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I didnt really like "Chronicles" that much. I think there were some very nice visuals and I like the Riddick character, but I totally prefer "Pitch Black" and am happy to see Twohy/Vin seem to agree that going back into the direction of "Pitch Black" is the way to go =)
If they ever make an AVP3, I want to see Twohy write and direct it. I think he would be really good.
Nice, glad to hear he's going back to a Pitch Black type of movie. CoR was OK at best, at least I found it entertaining.
Good. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaA2eKABuEE)
Oh God, I hated the 1st one...
What, Pitch Black? ???
It's already scouting:

I'm not sure if someone already posted this.
Yes, another Riddick film! I loved the 2 previous ones.
Yeah, I loved them too. Looking forward to this. :)
Make that three of us!
Pitch Black and The Chronicles Of Riddick are both great (yet very different) films...
Make that four! PB was awesome, it's underrated IMO. CoR was tolerable, but not a good sequel.

Agreed. To me it didn't really seem like a sequel, more like a spin-off, the tone was so different.
Sexy time. CoR had some completely WTF moments, they'd be much better served going back to PB's basic brutality whilst putting it in CoR's expanded horizon.
Awesome news. I really enjoyed PB, but to be honest I liked CoR more. Maybe its because I saw it first or maybe because the ending to it was just so goddamn freakin' awesome.

Isolate the cast: put them somewhere hostile, not necessarily forbidden planet, but somewhere inimical and isolated, a military project, a prison, a derelict ship or pirate haven.
Ultra super bastard enemies: Not just big talk and all attitude only to be 1-2ed by Riddick, but actual bad asses with SKILLS. Super Mercs, a Special Forces team, Alien Bounty Hunters from Hell, something big and bad, like Alien and Human Mercs/Assassins with stolen Necro Tech. Riddick needs to shut them down before he gets blamed for their shit as new Necro rep. A Necro Kill Team activated when Riddick became leader, they hunt him down to see whether or not he's fit enough to rule.
Dark Ugly and Viscious, no comic book time, no roleplaying campaigns, just back to basics against an impossible enemy whilst wearing goggles and talking mad smack
On a semi-related note, just recently watched CoR: Dark Fury.
Shit was cash.
Indeed.
CoR was just to big a step to soon imo. Chronicles felt more like a finale than it did a true sequel.
Needed a moderate step to get to that point imo.
Chronicles of Riddick games are pretty underrated. Nothing you haven't really seen before, but its got very good production values, voice acting, and captures the feel of being a badass perfectly.
Nothing like walking into a room of arrogant mercs armed with rifles and taking them out with just a knife.
Plus its got some good quotes:
"Is she coming back?"
"No. When I say goodbye, it's forever."
EfBB and DA are the best movie licensed games ever made, period. And their melee is only matched by JKA/JKII.
I'd prefer it if they left out all the Necromonger stuff and just used mercs or something. I wasn't a big fan of the supernatural space opera thing Chronicles did.

Apparently her grandchildren were also huge fans of Pitch Black.
By the way, I really liked Chronicles of Riddick - the THEATRICAL CUT. The Director's Cut is full of "WTF?!" moments. Like the mysterious dream-woman who's never explained, or the fact that Riddick REMEMBERS his infancy, or the fact that he can somehow fire blue circles of energy out of his body (?!?!?!). None of this shit is in the theatrical.
I'd say GE is third or fourth, as I am completely unenamored of nostalgia.

I liked all of Dark Athena more than EfBB except the landside bits. Much preferred to be on the ship. True it didnt have as many role playing bits, but it was faster paced and slightly more action oriented.
Vin Diesel Confirmed for Third "Chronicles of Riddick"
http://www.worstpreviews.com/headline.php?id=16747&count=0
Looking forward to it!
"BERLIN -- "Riddick," the third entry in the sci-fi series that began with 2000's Vin Diesel starrer "Pitch Black" and one of the most sought-after titles at EFM, has been picked by Central Partnership for Russia.
Lionsgate is handling international sales, and the asking price for Russia was $2.2 million. But reflecting how in demand the title is and a reawakening of the presales market, a bidding war erupted among Russia's major distributors, with the final price going above $2.5 million.
The project was unveiled to buyers at a nighttime presentation Saturday with Diesel present.
While some buyers have noted the prices for "Riddick" are high, it feels tailor-made for the Russian market, which is big on high-flying action and sci-fi epics.
More Berlin coverage:
"Riddick" delivers on both counts. Though billed as a back-to-basics approach to the character popularized by Diesel, the script features the character -- the most wanted man in the galaxy -- left for dead on a barren alien planet, dealing with "trisons" (three-legged bisons) and "mud demons." He must then contend with two squads of bounty hunters, one of which ride rockets called jetcycles"

Interesting! I guess Vaako or someone else tried to take the throne after the end of the last film, but Riddick survived the attack. Because it's not supposed to ignore Chronicles...
Cool, I'm getting a Mad Max vibe from that.
Almost sounds like a cross b/w PB and CoR.

But it doesn't change the fact that it's not exactly great, especially when you consider it was designed by the Patrick Tatopoulos.

I'd like to see Toombs return as the central villain. If you remember, Riddick locked him in a cage between those two dog creatures in Chronicles of Riddick.
Wouldn't he be dead by now?
The siliceous (Sp?) Dogs were epic!
Quote from: DoomRulz on Apr 09, 2010, 04:25:36 PM
Wouldn't he be dead by now?
Someone could have freed him, or he broke loose.
Then he has a vendetta against Riddick.
Who would have freed him? Everyone left the prison and if they weren't under cover at the right time, they would've been cooked alive. And how would he have broken loose with no tools to accomplish that goal?
Y'now, maybe he used hair... ;D
He's not Jack Sparrow!
God I forgot that... :'(
Perhaps Sparrow may have taught him!
;D
I liked Toombs's character actually. He kinda reminds me of a Barbossa type character from POTC. He makes a good villain but in the right circumstances I could see him begrudgingly teaming up with Riddick.
i'd also love to see a 3rd and final Riddick game that ties into the beginning of Pitch Black. The ending for Dark Athena was piss poor and left a bad taste in my mouth. And Johns being sedated for the entire game just because they obviously couldnt get Cole Hauser back for the voice? Come on, surely a soundalike would of done. nobody would of complained if it was decent enough.

I wouldn't mind at all if Toombs came back; He was one of the highlights of 'Chronicles' for me.
"Dust my dick when you get the chance!" love that line.
:D
LOL
he was only locked in a cage. How would that be a problem to bring him back. Is it really far fetched that he escapes or is let out. Not like hes come back from the dead or anything.
Maybe a scouting party comes by the planet, but how much time will they allow for that? If they don't pick him up within a month, he'll be dead from starvation.

Why have people got the impression theres nobody left in the prison. It was a fair size and i doubt the prisoners that escaped with Riddick was the entire population. They could come up with plenty of reasons why he got free without being daft about it.
The new movie will be called The Chronicles of Riddick: Dead Man Stalking and have the following plot.
Betrayed by his own kind and left for dead on a desolate planet, Riddick (Diesel) fights for survival against alien predators and becomes more powerful and dangerous than ever before. Soon bounty hunters from throughout the galaxy descend on Riddick only to find themselves pawns in his greater scheme for revenge. With his enemies right where he wants them, Riddick unleashes a vicious attack of vengeance before returning to his home planet of Furya to save it from destruction.
His own kind? Would that be the Necromongers from the last movie? The plot sounds really good in my opinion, can't wait to see this movie. :)

The movie news site, JoBLo, said that the subtitle "Dead Man Stalking" was dropped. Not sure if that is entirely true, but that name didn't sound too good anyways. It sounded like a subtitle name for a next "Pirates" movie. haha.
The working title is simply Riddick.

Sounds interesting, though I would have preferred a more simple plot akin to Pitch Black.
Sounds like he gets betrayed or isnt accepted by the necromongers, or he himself doesnt want to rule and as a result he has to go on the run. As convulted as Chronicles was, im glad they seem to sticking with that story and continuing it, as well as delving more into Furya. Cant wait.

Quote from: Eidotemit on Jun 05, 2008, 01:25:39 AM
I didn't like CoR too much. The story and mythos of Riddick grew too big too fast and really ruined what could have been a decent B-movie franchise.
This is essentially how i feel. i LOVED Pitch Black and the whole Riddick character. But just as you described above, the character grew too much in such a short time frame, almost to a point where he seemed a completely different character.
If Vin does do another film, I hope it to be more like Pitch Black.
Damn.. i saw Riddick a long time ago and dug it to a certain extent.. the synopsis for this one has me intrigued... have to watch Pitch Black ASAP
I liked Riddick more as an anti-hero like in Pitch Black, where as in Chronicles he was more of an action hero. I hope the new film brings him back to his more sadistic roots again.
They included too much, too soon into chronicles of riddick. that film itself could and probably should have been stretched out into an entire trilogy, or at least the first 2 parts of it. The first film could have been Riddick on the run across the galaxy with Toombs on his trail. The necromonger stuff could have been slowly introduced and worked as a sort of background mystery throughout, not really coming to much plotwise. Just lingering there in the background.
The second film could have been set on crematoria and things start to get interesting from here regarding the necromongers. While riddick was on crematoria the necromongers could have taken helion prime. The final film could have then moved onto the necromongers and furya fully, with an all out war erupting, ending with Riddick taking down Colm Feore. This way the first two films could have been kept similar in tone to pitch black, slowly changing into the big epic finale.
As it stands theres a huge jump between pitch black and COR. It could have been done gradually. I commend them for trying because they really where going for a sort of adult star wars kinda thing. Creating scenarios, enemies, worlds, races etc, but they did it too fast. I still love the film but the ending of Riddick should have been the ending of the trilogy. Leave it on that awesome cliff hanger of "you keep what you kill" for ever.
The jump is somewhat forgivable if you watch Dark Fury, which was a really good flick. It sets up the character of Toombs nicely. Though I agree with just about everything you said.

yeah, i agree, but i also agree with keg that more than a movie's worth of stuff happens between the end of PB and the end of CoR they probably could have stretched it out into 2 full movies instead of a 25 minute cartoon and a movie.
i understand why it was done though, because it was a big budget action movie as a sequel to a low budget r rated action/horror. there's no way that the producers would risk the writer/director making 2 movies, and the riddick character is his "baby" and he wanted to get as much story in as possible.
I didnt see Dark Fury until a few months ago but its great. Now I just want a finale to the two games which ends with Riddick getting recaptured by Johns and him getting put into cryo sleep. Cue Pitch Black.
More games will most likely only happen if this new movie is a success.

well they brought out assault on dark athena last year and there hasnt been a movie in sight before or after it for years. but if it does do well then a third game could be more likely. i hope there is. while athena wasnt as good as butcher bay, it was still a blast to play.

QuoteThe hurdles seem to be dropping. The final turn is being rounded. The finish line (actually a starting line) seems closer than ever.
Of course, there are no guarantees in this mad endeavor called "filmmaking," a pursuit that is a pricey shotgun marriage between business and art. But we've reached a critical mass of enthusiasm and resource needed to launch a movie. If we go now, we can make it now. If we don't, we may never. And trust me, we're all keenly aware of that.
Yeah, I had some good face-time with Vin in NYC. We talked at length about where we go from here – about how to travel to all the places in the RIDDICK universe that needed travelling to – and we think we know have the Master Map. We'll keep it tucked tightly in our breast pocket for now, but it's enough to say that, if we can pull it all off, you'll have spent a good 15 years with us.
But Vin will be the driving force behind this next movie; I'm merely the writer-director. Am I being facetious? Kinda. But kinda not, too: It's Vin and the concessions he chooses to make that will allow this movie to go forward. And his love of the character, of course. So if you, too, have a soft spot for this hardened criminal, you might want to weigh in over at that giant-ass Facebook page he's got. Me? I'm still part of the Facebook Resistance.
I do get your emails of encouragement from seemingly all corners of the world. (Last week, Lithuania was heard from. I had to use Google Maps.) I can't always respond, but I do read just about everything that comes in. And I'm always quietly startled by the reach my films have – by how raw imagination alloyed with damn hard work can result in a product that travels the globe and excites the phosphors of so many screens as it excites the imaginations of so many who watch.
Above is a piece of art I did for Vin to help him see some of the visuals I carry around in my head night and day. Titled "Fifth Horseman," it's a tableau from the next movie.

I really, really like Chronicles, despite it being overblown and a bit of a mess. I can see what they tried to do, but they did too much too soon and crammed what could have been three cracking films worth of material into two .
And the two games, damn theyre easily amongst the best movie licensed games ever. Hell alot of people even argue Butcher Bay was better than the film Chronicles, and I wouldnt have to too much to disagree on with that. Dark Athena wasnt as good but it was still excellent, I'd love the new film to enable a third installment of the games to be made, tying it into the beginning of Pitch Black. At the end of Athena, Riddick is with the kid, who we know isnt anywhere to be seen in Pitch Black, and Johns is still sedated somewhere on the ship so theres obviously an interesting tale they could weave about what happened to the kid and how Johns eventually gets the better of Riddick and gets him on the transport seen in Pitch Black. That I would f**king love.

[Butcher Bay is f**kING AWESOME.
Yes. Yes it is. I got the redone version with Dark Athena, and for being a good few years old at the time it was still fun as hell. Had a sort of FPS meets RPG feel to it.
I just replayed them both recently and had a blast.

Yeah, Riddick works alone. Not feeling it either.
Dat nitpicking
i dont care, the pic has a mad max feel to it, riddick often takes a shine to people, i could totally see him befriending a viscous alien
Now that I remember it; it did happen once in CoR. Didn't bug me then.
I hope this is going to be better then "the chronicles of riddick".
I loved "Pitch Black" but i hated the magic stuff happening in chronicles of riddick. it felt out of place.
I f**king love Chronicles of Riddick. Its a mess of a film trying to fit too much into a single film but I dig it.
Top 10 in my favorite series'. Love the Riddick character. Diesel IS Riddick.
Its highly unlikely (although if a new Riddick movie does well we may get one) but I'd love a third game too. A trilogy of games leading directly into Pitch Black. That would be awesome. The ending of Assault on Dark Athena leaves too many questions hanging about what happens between then and Pitch Black. A final game to tie it all up and bring it full circle would be fantastic.
More like Pitch Black less like Riddick please.

Why do you say unlikely? Tigon Studios made a second game even though there was no film made based on Riddick since EfBB.
I dont think it sold well did it? I hope im wrong because I love those games. Fighting with the Ulaks was awesome.
QuoteOn the flip side, Riddick has sold 110,000 units in its first three weeks of release and is, according to Variety, set to top 250,000 units and generate $15 million in revenue. While small in comparison to a multiplatform, multiplatinum title, the sales numbers are considered a major success for an Xbox-only game. Variety also cited unnamed sources as saying Riddick's success has prompted VU to prep a PC version for a Q4 2004 release. The article also said the publisher is actively considering a sequel to Butcher Bay--something that definitively can't be said about its film cousin.
Sounds like it did.
So is this out before, or after xXx 3? Both belated sequels have been on Vin's to do list for a while now.

Yeah, that seems more likely. This is clearly the one he's more passionate about, in any case.
New Story And Character Details For RIDDICK Revealed
"Here's who they're scouting for at the moment:
- Boss Johns
- Santana
- The sexy female merc Dahl
- The smug commander Krone"
As for the plot details, there is a lot of it, mostly spoilers, so I'll post the part that captures the whole thing. Read below:
"In a nutshell, the movie sees Riddick back on a barren planet, surrounded by monsters and mercenaries – both species who want him dead and vice versa. Though there's a couple of potential cameos from previous Riddick movie faves, it's mostly fresh blood this time surrounding the big guy. And speaking of fresh, the character seems to have gotten a welcome, kick-ass overhaul...he's more brutal, bad-ass and virile (as some may say) than he was in the previous films."
I have to say, this sounds pretty cool. The site goes on saying that Karl Urban might return for couple of scenes as Vaako and some other intresting stuff. For much more, just follow the link at the bottom of the page. So, what are your thoughts on the new RIDDICK film?
http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/Wolvie09/news/?a=44102 (http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/Wolvie09/news/?a=44102)
Sounds good to me. A more brutal Riddick; does this mean the film be more graphic you think?
Sounds good to me so far. :)

Regarding the cameos, it would be nice to see Toombs make one. Maybe part of the mercenary group.
Toombs is dead.
Quote from: DoomRulz on Aug 11, 2011, 02:45:46 AM
Toombs is dead.
Really? I thought Riddick locked him in a cage between two animals?
I doubt this film is happening the day after.
True, but who's to say he did or didn't escape. The film could take place...say a few months or few years after Riddick and update the viewer on what's going on. Toombs may have escaped and plotted his revenge.
What I am trying to say is that it doesn't have to take place the day after, to justify the character still being alive.
I think that's unlikely. He was locked in that cage pretty well and tight.
Toombs escaped the planet Riddick trapped him in... I can see him coming out of the cage. :P
Boss Johns? Potential cameos? Could Boss Johns be a brother or the father of Johns from Pitch Black? That'd be a nice way to tie it into the first movie.
My body is so f**king ready for this.

Quote"While I was working on character, the Director and his team of artists have been creating the world and style of this picture. We all know how much I enjoy concept art and storyboards, haha, I am like a kid in a candy shop. Seeing the early stage of CGI is always fascinating to me, it is a element that usually comes together long after the filming process, so you look forward to seeing it fully realized. First stop for the Riddick production is Canada, which is where we shot a large part of Chronicles...
P.s. I am grateful to have Universal in such support of this complex character's journey... not many studios would back an "R" rating. Very cool."
R ratings are a rarity these days it seems. Good to know Universal has their head screwed on straight.
A new piece of concept art and some info from Diesel.

Quote"In the spirit of Creative Sundays... I asked the director to send a key frame that I could post it for you.
Concept art and Key frames allow a production to explore possibilities before actually committing to film. The road to the "R" rating, that so many of you were vocal about, has been a long one. The advantage however, (never empower the negatives) was that we were allowed a really extensive preproduction process. The art work is so good, the artists have really outdone themselves in illustrating this world at it's early stage.
When this film comes to the screen... know that you willed it into being!
Haha...
I got two meetings today that I have been prepping for... one with the Director and another one with the head of the studio to discuss casting and the 2012 release date. Like always, I appreciate having your voice present in these meetings."
So sweet. ;D
Very f**king cool.
If I didn't know that a short period of time to finish a film eventually damages its quality, I'd really hope they finished it up soon haha.

Glad to see theres going to be some continuity flowing through the films even though each one is going to be completely different from the last. Chronicles was such a vastly different beast to Pitch Black and it sounds as though this new film is going to be different again with a mixture of both films.

I like Karl Urban but i did not like all the magical stuff going on in the Chronicles of Riddick tbh :( Hope they will leave that stuff out of this one. Want it to be more like Pitch Black again.
It's set on an Alien planet so I'm sure it is.

Riddick, the third film in David Twohy's series about the titular anti-hero, is moving fast through pre-production. An R rating has been secured. Vin Diesel is coming back. Casting is underway and good times will be had by all.
Diesel has been keeping his fanbase in the loop about the film and he shared some new artwork which reveals on of the Necro-armo designs for Riddick
Diesel writes: "One of many Necro-armor designs... Haha, I had to share. It takes hundreds of artists to make a movie... I am excited about the work Our "Riddick" crew of artists, are doing right now in Canada. Their contributions is what will make this film. P.s. Riddick starts principal photography in weeks... much to do, much to do... especially since it's "R"... GRRR..."
You can view the artwork below the synopsis:
Betrayed by his own kind and left for dead on a desolate planet, Riddick (Diesel) fights for survival against alien predators and becomes more powerful and dangerous than ever before. Soon bounty hunters from throughout the galaxy descend on Riddick only to find themselves pawns in his greater scheme for revenge. With his enemies right where he wants them, Riddick unleashes a vicious attack of vengeance before returning to his home planet of Furya to save it from destruction.

As an actor I'd be frustrated too if I wasn't being paid. This is the first time I've heard of such a thing. Who takes a project it can't afford?
It happened with Terry Gilliam's last attempt at Don Quixote (the one with Ewan McGregor) just weeks before filming and with David O'Russell's Nailed which fell apart half way through filming. Financing simply fell through. Also, it's not uncommon for studios to simply pull the plug at the last minute as they did with Gore Verbinski's Bioshock which was apparently ready to shoot in just another two weeks.
That they're still making offers to actors is a good sign that they're getting their shit together though so hopefully this is just a minor blip.
Sounds like Vin Diesel is working with producers who really don't give a shit about this project

Why should they since their job is about money?
The last movie box office weren't so good, they are aware of this.
That was several years ago. I think a new movie can do better if the word of mouth is good.
I still don't understand the hate for that movie. It had good acting, and had a Heavy Metal magazine tone to the story. Riddick was still Riddick and he was still killing people. The only difference is that there wasn't any horror going on. But the story was much more fleshed out of that universe. Plus there was plenty of action devoid of cheesy one liners.
It was too much too soon. The story didn't really logically follow from Pitch Black despite having two characters from the previous movie. Dark Fury helped bridge the gap though and I saw it before I saw CoR.
Oh, twat-loops...
And now it seems like the movie is back on track.

I liked it but I think that's because I saw it after seeing Dark Fury.
The original was a competent movie with a bit of charm, but ultimately lacking soul and cliched, but good visually and with memorable lead character. 5/10 in my books, fun but disposable, and this actually not a bad score on my scale ( :D )...But anyway "Chronicles..." wanted to make an epic out of it on a grand scale and it utterly failed. There was little connection between scenes, the whole movie seemed disjointed, there wasn't any chemistry, nothing clicked. And ultimately despite trying hard to say something, it had nothing to say.
Riddick Resumes Production December 28th
Back in October, actor Vin Diesel revealed Riddick was nearing the start of production, although the sequel was shut down weeks later because of cash flow issues. Now it seems all has been resolved, and Riddick will resume shooting on December 28.
Michel Trudel, who owns the Montreal studio where Riddick was shooting, booted the cast and crew off the set when Vin Diesel's production company, One Race Films, fell behind on payments to the studio. Now Michel Trudel says the production company has paid up, and he will allow the sequel to continue production. It isn't known if the production company took on a new financing partner for Riddick, or where the new funds came from.
David Twohy is directing Riddick from his own screenplay. Vin Diesel returns as the title character, and Karl Urban reprises his Vaako role from The Chronicles of Riddick. We reported last month that Katee Sackhoff, Bokeem Woodbine, Andreas Apergis, and Dave Bautista were offered roles in Riddick, although it isn't known if they have accepted yet.

I like it but i think it's not really otherworldly looking. Would like to see this Riddick movie moving more to the Pitch Black side instead of the Chronicles of Riddick side.
Judging from the Script, it definitely is more Pitch Black than Chronicles.
I hope there's a new female lead like Radha Mitchell. She was a good antagonist to Riddick.
Katee Sackhoff will play the female lead.

Jordi Molla in talks for 'Riddick'
After coming close to nabbing the coveted villain role in J.J. Abrams' "Star Trek 2," Spanish thesp Jordi Molla is taking his sinister sneer to another sci-fi franchise, as he's in negotiations to play the villain opposite Vin Diesel in David Twohy's "Riddick."
Molla is in talks to play Santana, a mercenary who heads up an eight-man crew tasked with finding and killing Riddick.
Production on the second "Pitch Black" sequel recently resumed after a two-month hiatus while the producers finalized financing. 2004's "The Chronicles of Riddick" grossed more than $115 million worldwide, indicating there's still plenty of interest in another sequel, with this one being made for a price.
Molla most recently starred opposite Zoe Saldana as the villain in "Colombiana." In addition to co-starring alongside Johnny Depp in "Blow," Molla has also matched wits against two of the biggest movie stars in the world -- Will Smith and Tom Cruise -- as the villain in "Bad Boys II" and "Knight and Day."
http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118048352 (http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118048352)
Niiiiiiiiice, he's got a terrific look to play a merc. I look forward to seeing him.

I would doubt it. My guess would be Summer/Fall 2013. It's takes about 18 months for a film like this to get from pre-production to the theater.
Are they even aiming it to be in the theater? I heard somewhere that it would be an independent film and would be only have a DVD release.
Highly doubt it given the names involved and the money invested. Its a big sci-fi picture. Not giving it a theatrical run would kill it.

He's a freakin' beast!
Oh yeah, he`s great. I love this guy and loved both earlier films!
Good to see some evidence of this moving forward. The franchise still has good potential even after the last one.
Looks good, but not sure if I like the cape. Just doesn't seem to gel with Riddick's personality.
The cape is probably due to him being the Necromonger Lord Marshall or whatever, yeah?
Riddick series has been great. I loved Pitch Black, and Chronicles reminded me of a sort of sci-fi Conan saga, the way it played out. I really enjoyed the art direction and the attempts at doing something a tiny, eeny weeny bit original by the production team.
Riddick is a bit of a cornish ball of character, but I like him anyway. He has fun little moments where he doesnt have to act all billy badass :D I like those.
cool i will watch this

Riddick can fly!!!!!! But seriously, he looks awkward with a cape.
Good thing it won't last

Welcome to the club ;D I love Pitch Black, was a bit disappointed with the chronicles of riddick tbh. They tried to make it way too epic.

New synopsis.
http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/Wolvie09/news/?a=54025 (http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/Wolvie09/news/?a=54025)
QuoteThe infamous Riddick has been left for dead on a sun-scorched planet that appears to be lifeless. Soon, however, he finds himself fighting for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he's encountered. The only way off is for Riddick to activate an emergency beacon and alert mercenaries who rapidly descend to the planet in search of their bounty.
The first ship to arrive carries a new breed of merc, more lethal and violent, while the second is captained by a man whose pursuit of Riddick is more personal. With time running out and a storm on the horizon that no one could survive, his hunters won't leave the planet without Riddick's head as their trophy.
Riddick also sees the return of Karl Urban (Star Trek, The Bourne Supremacy) as Vaako and introduces to the series Jordi Molla (Bad Boys II, Colombiana) as Santana, the arrogant captain of the mercenary ship; Matt Nable (Killer Elite) as Boss Johns, a man looking for answers; Katee Sackhoff (TV's Battlestar Galactica) as the Nordic mercenary Dahl; and Bokeem Woodbine (upcoming Total Recall) as bounty hunter Moss. Rounding out the cast are Dave Bautista (The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption), Conrad Pla (Immortals), Raoul Trujillo (Apocalypto), Nolan Funk (TV's Aliens in America) and two-time Grammy Award-nominated singer Keri Hilson.
Sounds badass.
sounds and looks pretty cool. cant wait to see a trailer

I think he'll be grossly out of shape and not look like any kind of threat to a tank like Riddick.
Vin Diesel wasn't in the best shape when he made Fast Five. He might have been bulking up for this though.
Yeah, his double-chin was pretty prominent in Fast 5 lol
His age is starting to show. But I have faith he'll still look bad-ass.

That creature is looking really nice. Cannot wait to see it in action; perhaps that's what they were pointing at when they said this was more like Pitch Black. I suddenly had the vision of this red creature fighting one of the flying hammerhead sword-teeth things of the first film. So sweet.

No, no: Fang naginata.
Looks as if Vin packed on a few pounds since Fast Five.
Looking a little chunky there Vin. Lay off the beers.
Yeah, that belly is barely contained. At least he doesn't have his 2x chin from Fast Five.

Ohhhh yeeahhh!
Great to hear some news on this! There's no Nick Chinlund in the credits, so I'm guessing no Toombs in this one? This part:
Quote
The first ship to arrive carries a new breed of merc, more lethal and violent, while the second is captained by a man whose pursuit of Riddick is more personal. With time running out and a storm on the horizon that no one could survive, his hunters won't leave the planet without Riddick's head as their trophy.
Made me think of Toombs, but alas... wonder who the next merc will be.
Next Merc should be Michael C. Hall....just because.

Dave Batista of wrestling fame and Katie Sackhoff of BSG fame are going to be playing a couple mercs. :)
^Ah yes! It's been so long since we've heard anything about this film that I forgot about that. :laugh: Thanks dude, I think I'll go look at some... pictures of Sackhoff.. just to imagine her in the new role..

Riddick should fight both of them at the same time. With Katie being the one who is kicking the most ass.
She's one of the main reasons why I want to see this movie. :laugh:

Universal Pictures Schedules RIDDICK For September 2013Quote
Riddick, a third chapter in this science fiction film series, starring Vin Diesel as the title character.
The film will hit theatres and IMAX on September 6th, 2013. Here is what Diesel had to say on his official Facebook page, where he also added this image below:
"Our page has been up for over three years... Before FB knew what a million fans was... you pioneers of social media were chanting for the next chapter. So for me, it is surreal to look back at some of the older posts, and the comments that followed. Even the discussion boards... haha, I remember a great thread one of you created comparing biblical characters to the Furyan. The art work you have created over the years... you made it happen. You really do inspire me... and your voice is manifesting, what you want to see... and yeah, that's cool.
P.s. I know, I am talking too much... but I am proud of you..."

Damn. I was hoping for a slot somewhere in March. But, since its 9 months from release, there should be no polishing, or editing errors, or anything errors of the such.

If you blunder into it now, he'll chicken out and change select details in post-production and deny everything! But if he's caught red-handed, with genuine references to the Crybulon System up there for all to see... just imagine the benefits we could reap!

Yes! Looking forward to this. Urban is of course the most badass of the two. 8)
Give us a trailer already!
I'm a bit pissed off theyve messed around with them series movie titles again. When Chronicles of Riddick was released they renamed the whole series that. You had the chronicles of riddick games, the animated sequel to pitch black and even pitch black itself had its DVD/BLU RAY covers changed so that they too had the Chronicles of Riddick prefix. And now they simply call this film "Riddick".
Arrrggggh. Just a minor pet hate of mine when film series do that. But im so f**king excited theres finally a sequel. I love me some Riddick.

Dredd would win. Just sayin'.
In a fist fight? I don't think so. Riddick is a fighter.
But Dredd's a hotshot.
A gun hasn't stopped Riddick yet.
Fist ain't stopped Dredd, neither.
I think we can all agree that it would be badass.
No doubt. Riddick would give Dredd the fight of his life.

How big is the garage they shot this film in? :P
This big.
*stretches arms out wide*
We need a trailer already.
I loved the first Riddick. The second one was good, but disappointing. Damn I hope this one is good.
Yeah. I know, right?
So... is Riddick still gonna be Alien Jesus in this one, or what?
I actually like the fact it feels like a modern day version of a garage made film (so far). It makes me nostalgic for old 80's sci-fi B-Movies that share a similar feel. The trailer may shatter that though with cgi beasties and what not.

Lol, if you mean be the leader of the Necros, yeah looks like it. This is a sequel after all.

I figured that much out myself. I'm just still baffled by the fact they made him a Christ figure (and a f**king alien) in Chronicles. Still a decent movie, though.
Well, alien in a purely contextual sense. He might as well be human.

That's not his throne.. it looks too different from the one in Chronicles of Riddick.. That's probably just his casual badass chair in his own living room. :laugh:

I know that. I'm just saying, it's weird to see Riddick just sitting there chilling. He's usually more active :P

Straight biters... :P
I'm looking forward to it.
The Riddick universe was interesting enough, and dark enough, to make it a worthwhile playground for future installments. I like Vin Diesel as an actor; I honestly do. That said, I could care less about the 2 Fast 2 Much 2 Leet movies.
But science fiction? Yes, he can do it, and yes, I'd love to see a third flick.

This is gonna be sweet. I found the Dark Fury anime in the discount bin the other day and picked it up and loved it. I didn't even know they were making a 3rd feature film at the time so it was pretty coincidental. Riddick is just a really awesome character.

Yeah, but he's a brooder, too, you have to remember that. One of the things I find so great about the character is he looks like this total psychopathic death machine when you first see him, but over time you come to realize that 's very self-reflective, carries his fair share of regrets, and sees himself more as a product of mistreatment than an active participant in various questionable activities.

I dont like how the film seems to be using the past formula... with a new planet with new monsters.. that Riddick needs to once again get away from... :/ Hope i'm wrong.
Pitch Black was a really good flick with an interesting premise and an interesting lead in Radha Mitchell... Chronicles of Riddick was very entertaining but oh so flawed because it was trying to juggle way too much at the same time... the necromongers were an awesome addition to the universe, though.
I'd like to see less emphasis on the Necros because it seems overwhelming for a character like Riddick. I preferred things when he was just a criminal on the run from greedy mercs.

I suppose. I don't want Riddick to become a personification of a pro- or anti-religion argument though, know what I mean?
Making Riddick into a Christ figure was just bizarre. That and making him an alien for no real reason.
Didn't like the way they went with the series at all. Also the recast of the girl was pretty lame... Pitch Black is one of my favorite scifi movies and i hope that this sequel restores the series for me. Don't hate the chronicles of riddick. But the magic stuff was really out of place. Can't wait for this movie though!!!!!!! 8)

Riddick is a badass that can see in the dark and is being hunted by bounty hunters on a hostile alien planet. They somehow catch him, but must free him to unite against the aliens.

I loved Pitch Black, so it's nice to see a return to that formula, even if it's following a bit too closely. :laugh:
And those predatory aliens look cool as hell.
Considering that trailer didnt have anything with Vaako in it (Karl Urban) i think theyve deliberately left out the Necro side of the story in that trailer and I dont think its going to be the straight forward rehash of the original that this trailer implies.
I agree with that.
Or there isn`t any Necro side. Only some in the begining.
They do show plenty of Necro's in the trailer. Bald dude that blast Riddick off the cliff (surrounded by dead Necros), guy getting nailed by monster tail, etc.

Still bugging the shit out of me with the title though. When Chronicles was released they rebranded the whole series as Chronicles Of Riddick. DVD / Blu Ray box art for Pitch Black became Chronicles Of Riddick: Pitch Black. We had Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury and two games both Chronicles of Riddick followed by their subtitles.
Now weve just got Riddick and its all messed up again. Pet hate of mine when film series titles are all over the place.

Um, both WOW! and meh.
The cinematography, SFX, designs, etc... just look stunning, very consistent with Pitch Black and Chronicles (those color filters.)
But, and this might be a pointless or misguided thing to say, I worry about them taking Riddick too far into 13-year-old-boy territory. The "5 seconds" scene was completely derp, though they seemed to be trying to conjure images of the 'teacup' scene from Chronicles.
Imo, the Riddick films have always at least
tried to make the badassery at least sort of believable, but that final trailer scene was straight X-games. ::) Too much flipping, too much uber-1337-coolness. Why why
why does everything go the way of the derp cheese? It's like every marketing person on Earth is convinced that the entire demographic for movies and video games revolves around tween boys. WHEN WILL THE STUPID SHIT FINALLY GOT BORING AND END? I've been sick of the uber coolness for quite awhile now, the endless 3-point landings, the stupid impossible shit that just looks so sad, unoriginal, and tired these days. It's beginning to offend.
I hope they lay off the cheese and don't f**k it up. Right now I'm a little worried, but hell yes of course will be watching this. If anything, just for dem aliens!
Indeed, it would be nice to have some sort of lead who knew martial arts, but wasnt already countering a move before it was even done.
Strangely enough though this bothers me but it drives my sister absolutely insane.

I love how personal Diesel takes the character, sure gives us more confidence it will be well worth the wait.

Didn't much care for Chronicles personally. Pitch Black was damned entertaining, though.
Chronicles was more enjoyable after seeing Dark Fury.
The two games are actually pretty good as well. I rank them amongst the top in movie related games. Certainly much more impressive than ACM.

Yup agreed. Especially Escape From Butcher Bay. Thats an incredible game, very atmospheric and dared to do something a bit different for a FPS.
The first half of Assault On Dark Athena was excellent but it really loses its way fast, when you land on the planet.......and it's bright daylight. Ending was piss poor as well. Never find out what happened to Johns and the kid. We know Johns must obviously get free and then somehow capture Riddick but what about the kid. I highly, highly doubt it but I'd love a final third game that ties directly into the beginning of Pitch Black.

I agree.
I think Chronicles problem was the change of scale from Pitch Black, they went for epic but it didn't quite work. Though I found the Necromungers interesting, their design was a little weak IMO. Still an enjoyable sequel though
I actually disagree with all of what you said. The world building made it feel like an epic. It opened the doors to a whole new rich universe untrapped, where Pitch Black seemed very near future earth and not nearly as interesting in concept. Yes it was great seeing Riddick in the first movie, but it was better seeing him in the second as a super killer take down imperial drones. The necromongers looked fantastic, and were unique in their own way. The third movie just seems to be redoing Pitch Black all over again with nothing really new to add.

I agree here. The second film did much more than just say "look at badass Riddick again" by adding so many different elements. By the end, I know I wasn't the only one going "f**king Conan in space."
And personally, I'm happy with Riddick having that title. Sure the movie had it's cheesy moments, but I enjoyed what they tried to do. And that art direction! I don't think it gets enough credit, given how much crap we get these days. Very rarely to productions have freedom to try something kind of new, it seems.
Meh. Chronicles was okay, but it felt like it was set in a completely different universe from Pitch Black. I also have serious issues with turning Riddick into a Christ figure.

You can't be serious. Nothing in the films even comes close to insinuating anything 'Christ-like" about Riddick. Sounds like the inventive imaginations of some over-analyzing fans. :laugh:
He's the lone survivor of a massacre of infants by a cruel ruler and is destined to save the universe.
Moses or Jesus, take your pick.
The massacre of infants, I'll give you that. Forgot about it, honestly, but the 'hunted anti-hero who was prophesied to save the universe' is about the oldest trope in the book.
But still, I've never heard anyone I've known that's seen the movie even approach this idea, myself included. Certainly nothing blatant like Episode I territory.
At least with this film, he's going back to solo monster-fighting, merc-evading Riddick. Any and all comparisons to Jesus should be light years away, lol!
Riddick is nothing like Jesus. His kindness is merely self benefiting. I'd rather Riddick hop across other worlds fighting armies and butchering them than to be stuck on another deserted planet. You'd think more people would respect him for killing the Necromonger lord and protect him.
It's not always self-benefiting. He didn't save Jack/Kira in CoR because he could receive something from her. He genuinely cared about her.

I hope there is something about her in the next film, I really liked the direction they took her character. Not a revenge theme
*shudder* just a subtle dabble into a few emotionally charged memories here and there, or even just one.

Trying to ride too much on Riddick's 'coolness' and not set him in an interesting story. Pitch Black was great because he really fit in the story and made it interesting. It wasn't created by his coolness, he was just some crazy murderer anti-hero that ended up saving a few people.
Now we have this cheese. Gawdammit. :-\

I don't want to shit on parades. I adore the first 2 Riddick films, I's just calling em like I see em lol.
Third installments have the curse, too. The only one to break it so far is Nolan with TDKR, but even that wasn't as good as The Dark Knight, I think. Threequels make me nervous.
Well, the preview does look promising. Let's not lose hope.

I can think of a few promising cases where said curse was broken:
Back to the Future
Basket Case
Die Hard
Halloween
Iron Man
*Indiana Jones
Jurassic Park
Universal Soldier
All those series feature a second sequel that was, at the very least, a
slight improvement on the initial sequel. I know there're plenty of crappy examples too, but there is hope for
Riddick!

Um, I don't get it. If we're talking about prequels, sure that's a great list you've all got going here. But this is the third movie, and almost that entire list is full of 3rd movies that suck, or are at least nowhere near as good as the first or second installments.
It's actually a very good example of horrifying third movies after two great or good ones. :laugh:
The only ones I'd keep from Docs list for examples of good third films are Die Hard, Indiana Jones, and maybe Back to the Future (which I love but I think is considered kind of a flop after 2.)
To me it seems that third films have sucked almost universally. :P I can smell the suck coming... it smells like...

LOL
Goldfinger is a great third film in a series.
Ditto Star Trek III.
Return of the Jedi was a good third movie. Ewoks and all.
Great examples.
Oooh, ALSO A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors. Always loved that one.
Return of the King
Toy Story 3
Just to name two right off the top of my head.
Don't you even get me started with the bastardized half-bake that was Return of the King. :laugh:
But the rest are great examples. Maybe it's a trilogy curse? Even Jedi ruffled some serious jimmies :laugh: and I will always love that film.
Return of the King was magnificent, despite the fact that I think it could have been substantially better given what they left out from the source material. Although that also goes for the first two as well...
I saw the trailer for this yesterday when I saw Pacific Rim. Looks...well, action packed. And that's it. So I'll probably see it at some point, but won't be rushing out to view.

How bout that dubstep in the trailer? :laugh: I'm glad Riddick seems to be in full possession of his insane, dark sense of humor. Was one of the major things that made him such an enjoyable character. Not just 'another badass, ugggghhhh!' but a somewhat realistic take on a sarcastic, survivalist killer that also happens to be able to see in the dark.
Did he go to the planet as kind of a reverse Pitch Black? Like he knew there were a bunch of monsters there, so he hides out with his own kind (lol) to give the mercs that will inevitably come chase him a hard time? Would be kind of a cool angle, back at home with the monsters, Riddick. ;D
Alright alright, I am pump. ;D
Highly disappointed by the trailer. Looks nearly identical to Pitch Black. Though, if it turns out they go the way RagingDragon said, than it could be decent.

Not much. You just took an already existing poster, zoomed in on Riddick's face and added small gradients.

Can't wait to see this but damn that's some bad cgi and greenscreen work.
It's not bad at all, given the budget.
I didn't think the FX were bad but what surprised me was Riddick saving a puppy. Gotta have the context for that one.

It`s probably a puppy of this dog friend he is seen with on promotional materials. Or it`s the dog friend itself. Riddick saves him and raises. It can be near the begining of the film.
Indeed. It just seems weird is all. We all know Riddick has a compassionate side given his feelings towards Jack in the series but a puppy seems too cuddly for a guy like him.

I think it`s this one. Riddick just don`t like unjustified violence.
I'd save and a puppy from certain death and keep it as dudebro-hound as well if I was alone in a f**ked up planet.

It's included in the Riddick Trilogy DVD set (this one (http://www.takware.com/photos/dvd_movie_collection/riddick_trilogy.jpg)), and I know it was released by itself on DVD as well. I have no clue if it is included on the Blu Ray set.
It's not really anything too special, but it's fun and has some very interesting animation going for it.

It also does a decent job of setting up the situation the survivors from
Pitch Black are in at the beginning of
Chronicles, from what I recall.

I just want to hear your thoughts on the Vaakos when you finally see
Chronicles. ;)
I actually just watched it (http://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/index.php?topic=9937.msg1773976#msg1773976) ;)
I found them both interesting in their own ways. Karl Urban was awesome as always, and I liked seeing him attempt to rise to power. And then, on the other hand, it was a lot of fun seeing Dame Vaako manipulate Vaako and everyone else in order to plant the seeds for this potential rise. The scheming was a lot of fun to see play out.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
That was so damn funny.
I'm seeing this tonight. Can't wait!

This review actually says this is better than Pitch Black, and is just a B Movie triumph in general.
I haven't really been paying attention to the trailers, so I'm pretty in the dark (heh), but I'm really excited to see the creatures in this film. The Bioraptors in Pitch Black were great, and one of the things that disappointed me the most in The Chronicles of Riddick was that there was only one brief scene with some alien dogs. From what I heard Riddick definitely ups the ante on non-humanoid aliens.

...then, from what I've read, the first 30 minutes of this new film was made just for you. :-*
Sweet 8)
Now just find some way to bring Toombs back in the next film and I will be even happier! :D
He was just stuck on Crematoria, wasn't he? I can't remember. :'(
In a cage by himself, with two caged dogs on either side of him.
It would definitely be cool to see him escape from that, this time with a more personal vendetta against Riddick.

THANK YOU! I need to rewatch Chronicles.
Love that film. ;D
That's a gold mine there; I think everyone liked Toombs. But this new film seems quite local, 1 planet Pitch Black style. Dont really see any room to fit him that isn't contrived given what we know so far, unless he's with the other mercs (which you think we would've known about a long time ago.)
Yup, definitely no way he's in this one. But if Riddick is succesful enough I think they have two more films planned (Underverse and Furya), so there's always hope.
I'm really looking forward to seeing what they do with Vaako in this one as well. I'm assuming that it is just a bit part at the beginning, before Riddick is exiled, but it will be interesting to see if his appearance plants the seeds for another Chronicles film.
If the Underverse movie gets made, I'd like to see Riddick run into some of the deceased characters there.

The aliens werent that needed, dont get me wrong there was nothing wrong with them just I found the whole cat and mouse situation between riddick and the mercs more entertaining. Also wasnt expecting nudity.

Toombs? Lol f**k no, there's every reason to think he's alive. Did you see Dark Fury? He escapes like a boss in that. I know its just a cartoon extra, but I think its canon. They released it with the other two movies in a 'trilogy' (lol.)
But Toombs is the kind of character that would make it out of that. Like Johns, but more capable and with a better sense of humor :laugh:.
Um, Dark Fury takes place before Chronicles and he didn't escape form anything. He was released from the tube he was stored in by one of the ship's crew.

There's a part in it where they're escaping the monsters or whatever, and Toombs crawls into a pipe and lives while everyone else dies. Unless I'm totally hallucinating, which isn't very likely.

lol. In every thread somebody posts a video from that guy jokingly criticizing a movie people let their feathers get all ruffled. :laugh:

Sounds very formulaic and 'Aliens-ish' in terms of the mercs. You just know there's gonna be a 'Hudson' type character, the sexy chick and the silent guy.

Well wasn't Pitch Black kind of the same type of movie? It reminded me a lot of Aliens and Mad Max. Riddick sounds like the same thing. I don't expect great art here. But I probably will wait for video.
Sounds a bit like Blade II to me, with the mercs that is. I admit I do like rowdy teams of cocky merc/special ops types, could be a last man standing situation as the monsters attack. The more I think of it the more I quite like the sound of it, despite the fact it sounds like its going through the cookie cutter motions.

Yeah, I'd agree that
Pitch Black was definitely a formulatic film. Much more than
The Chronicles of Riddick. That being said, I found
Pitch Black to be the superior movie; it's all about execution.
And just for clarification, I'm not trying to give
Chronicles the shaft. I'm just saying that it wasn't as well put together a film as
Pitch Black.

Um, Dark Fury takes place before Chronicles and he didn't escape form anything. He was released from the tube he was stored in by one of the ship's crew.
There's a part in it where they're escaping the monsters or whatever, and Toombs crawls into a pipe and lives while everyone else dies. Unless I'm totally hallucinating, which isn't very likely.
Yeah, he managed to avoid being killed but that isn't escaping. Escaping would imply he was running away from the authorities which he didn't.

Totally agree. Chronicles was an ok sequel, but Pitch Black had the right combination. I am looking forward to seeing the new one :)
Really enjoyed this. It's up there with Pitch Black. And there's more going on than what the trailers suggest.

Yup. The dog has more screentime than expected, mainly in the first act. Their scenes together make you smile.
Is it even worth a watch ?
I quite enjoyed this. It was just fun all around. Diesel is as good as he ever was in the role, and the rest of the cast wasn't bad, either. Bautista instilled a bit more faith in me regarding his casting in GotG, and Sackhoff was pretty cool. I liked Santana a lot, too, dickhead that he was. I kind of wished he was Toombs, though.
I`ve just came back. It was cool especialy first two acts. Third not so much.
Spoiler
To much like Pitch Black. Riddick hunting and stalking those mercs was much better.
Just got back from seeing it, best of the trilogy so far and fantastic! 8)
Over at the Escapist, people are bitching about Riddick making lewd comments towards Dahl. FFS, Space Conan isn't going to be sensitive towards issued of orientation.

Those Fast and Furious films were crap, but thank gawd they gave him an audience he could bank on with Riddick :P
Sweet, I hope it does well. From the looks of it it doesn't reinvent the wheel (not that anyone ever though it would) but it sounds like a lot of good fun :)
Definitely gonna try to get some people together to see it in the theater.
I actually kinda want to see this.

I might have to go catch it in the theater after all if I have the extra time. School gets in the way! :(
Oh come on. I have very important exa five days from now and still was in the cinema yesterday. Be a geek till the end!
So is this basically a remake of Pitch Black?
Cause from the trailers it really looks like that.
No, not entirely.
Spoiler
There are some neat scenes with Necromongers and Lord Vako. I really hope next one will go back to Underverse theme.
Strange ass trilogy. Not many movies go from quiet sleeper hit to massive budget miss to toned down remake.
Saying that I love both Pitch Black and Chronicles. I can't see how I cannot like this.
You can`t. Plain and simple.

I must echo the sentiments of Scarhunter and First Blood. This is B-Movie filmmaking at its absolute finest. An unadulterated orgy of extreme violence, middling CGI, cheesy dialogue and wanton misogyny; all set against a perpetual backdrop of awkward green screen vistas.
Damn good fun.

So to those who saw it, what'd you think of the creatures? Really looking forward to the variety of beasts this one seems to be offering.
I liked them a lot. They kinda share the qualities of a Xenomorph and a Scorpion.
The creatures felt very real, part of an environment, and result of an evolutionary process. All of them. Very cool stuff.
The effects were quite good too. Except for the baby alien dog, all the animals felt organic and realistic in their movements.
Excellent. Seems like it's delivering everything that I want, including a little bit on the, erm...
...side.
How do these aliens stack up against the Bioraptors? Are they just as awesome/more awesome?

Less awesome I guess. Bioraptors were very fresh while those are more generic. I also don't think It's the best film in series. Not even second best, though it's still very good. And it looks very interesting from certain side ;)
Loved this movie, I might even like it more than Pitch Black.
I have another question, that I guess could be a potential spoiler:

Does the film set up for a more mythology based sequel, a la The Chronicles of Riddick? Or does it keep more to itself?

The ending is one of those instances where he has to chose what to do next, as the mythology of Chronicles that is touched up on at beginning of this one is unresolved.
Plus the director wants the sequel to be in the Underverse.

lol, that's enough internet for today.
I kind of thought this was a underwhelming movie. I like seeing Riddick being badass and brutal, but I miss the epic of Chronicles they threw away. This movie feels too much like a remake of Pitch Black. Like how Evil Dead 2 is a remake to the first, yet a sequel at the same time. That's sort of how it feels like here. He is doing the same motions he did in the first, but with a less interesting cast. The necromongers could have had a bigger part then simply seeing him off. I would have liked one last confrontation with a large party sent to finish everyone off at the end.

I liked this film quite a bit. I felt it was Pitch Black with more action and that's not a bad thing. It was nothing spectacular but I definitely preferred it to CoR. I do wish Urban was in this one more though.
I kinda thought some NEcromongers will also come to kill Riddick.

Foreign box office it has made a solid 22 million, and still going.
From the 'Last Movie You Watched' thread:
Quote from: Nightmare Asylum on Sep 22, 2013, 11:26:16 AM
Saw Riddick last night.
I thought this was quite fun. I found it to be an improvement over The Chronicles of Riddick (which I also thought was a fun movie), but not quire up there with Pitch Black. Riddick had a ton of cool ideas, and delivered on most of them. Seeing Riddick alone on the planet for a while was was pretty badass, and I loved seeing the clashing groups of mercs at each others' throats. On the topic of the mercs, I thought Dave Bautista's character was the most interesting, so I'm looking forward to seeing him as Drax the Destroyer next year in Guardians of the Galaxy. I was really disappointed, however, that all Katee Sackhoff ever had a chance to do in the film was stand around and look tough; she is an extremely talented actress, and deserved a part with a bit more weight to it than what she got here.
The movie was also kind of choppy, especially in the way it sets up its three main segments. The beginning was cool, but when the mercs arrive it seems to lose focus for a few minutes (though it quickly finds it again), and the final act just kind of abrutply happens. It is very reminiscent of Pitch Black's finale, but it lacks the build-up that the original film had. That being said, it was all kinds of awesome to watch play out. The aliens in this movie were great, and seeing the threat that they posed to both Riddick and the mercs made for some pretty intense battle scenes. And we all know how much I love rain! :D
Overall, Riddick was a very fun modern day B-movie that definitely had its heart in the right place. While it never amounts to anything more than what it was expected to be, Riddick should be a very fun ride for people familiar with the character and the franchise who are looking for a more dialed-back and brutal take on the Riddick character. I'm glad that it found success in its theatrical run so far, and I look forward to hopefully seeing a sequel that delves a bit more into The Chronicles of Riddick's mythology in the future.
Oh, one last thing. The box scene in this movie (if you've seen the movie you know what I'm talking about) may be even better than the teacup scene from the previous film! 8)

Best bit for me was at the beginning with that adult mud dweller. Riddick cut through it and it then proceeded to eat its own innards. Whah.

Yeah, I kind of wanted him to take the dog and use it on Vaako.
But he left Helion Prime before getting the dog...
Would have been cool if he was able to take the dog off-world with him.

Riddick wasn't there either at the end, was he?
The Riddick saga seems to be a bit similar to what happened with The Matrix. The standalone first film became such a hit that the filmmakers expanded big time on the mythology, tone, action pieces and character gallery in the sequel(s) - much more than what is warranted from watching that first gem of a movie. Sometimes, it just happens to elevate the material into a 'genre' or titanic size where it doesn't feel like it belongs...

The standalone first film became such a hit that the filmmakers expanded big time on the mythology, tone, action pieces and character gallery in the sequel(s) - much more than what is warranted from watching that first gem of a movie. Sometimes, it just happens to elevate the material into a 'genre' or titanic size where it doesn't feel like it belongs...
I'm not sure the comparison is entirely valid because The Matrix: Reloaded logically followed from the first film so at least there were some ties that could be established. If you don't count Dark Fury, going from Pitch Black to CoR is almost like watching two different movies because without Dark Fury, CoR doesn't make much sense.

Riddick surpasses it's production budget domestically, and has earned an addition 37 million internationally.
Once this has finished its run on cinemas and sells well (because we all know it will) on DVD & blu-ray, we're so getting a sequel.

yep yep yep.
Plus it was one of those quasi-independent films, so the marketing budget is probably non-existent.

Seems that that and a slightly extended beginning with the Necromongers are the highlights of the Unrated Director's Cut.
Is there more Urban? More Urban is always good.
I think very briefly, but nothing with any big impact on the film.
Riddick (2013)
SPOILER WARNING!
The chronicles of Riddick continue where they left off from in the second film. I'm glad to say the powers that be have decided to get back to the roots of Riddick this time. The first film was a surprise hit and a decent alien monster survival clash. The second film then got too big for its own boots and went off the scale with over the top cheesy fantasy nonsense. This time we're back to survival mode with plenty of grit.
Now I will be brutally honest here, I'm gonna moan a lot about this film...starting right now. First off we see how Riddick was betrayed and dumped on this desolate planet, but why do that? he offered 'Vaako' the position of Lord Marshall merely in exchange for being taken to his home world of Furya, so why the need to trick him?? just take him home and all is good. I must also ask how in the hell Riddick survived that cliff fall?! it was like...a gazillion feet high!.
The planet this film is set on is a nice looking one if you ask me, very slick visuals in general but I really liked this planets design, it felt very real actually. Not too original in all fairness, your standard Tatooine type location but very realistically created. So Riddles is stuck on this planet, marooned, he manages to fix his leg which I can buy but then finds these mud pool/geyser/springs which do not contain drinkable water yet he submerges himself in one to escape some wild dog-like creatures. Isn't that kinda risky? god knows what that liquid could of done to him.
After much limping around Riddick finds some ruins (no explanation to what they are or who built them though) and he entombs himself for an unknown amount of time. Enough time for his leg to fix completely though...so that's a long time entombed without food or water, I'm confused. Once vampire Riddick emerges he eventually discovers there is more fertile land beyond these jagged rocks but he can't get there because of the mud pools and these scorpion things that live in them. There was no other way around this area? really?? no way at all!?. Although I did like the way he uses his survival skills to gradually build his immunity against their poisonous sting, inoculation 101. Low and behold once around the rocky patch and into the nicer areas Riddick finds an outpost, always an outpost, he couldn't have landed on an uninhabited planet oh no, but I guess we wouldn't have our film then would we.
The film does feel very segregated, the first half is a really neat survival concept with Riddick and his new pet doggie creature. The middle part then changes into a more standard action setup when the rather gimmick riddled 'Alien Resurrection' mercs turn up spouting much cliched crap. Boy do they try too hard with these characters, they really want this guys to be memorable iconic sci-fi characters but it kinda fails really. The merc leader seems to be Peter Stormare's love child or a low rent version, Sackhoff really tries to have an air of uber coolness about her but gives it up all too easy when Riddick flirts with her, Batista is just another ex-wrestler to move into acting playing large meatheads and why cast Keri Hilson in that cameo??. What is this modern trend of casting pop singers and ex-wrestlers when real struggling actors are forever available and can actually act because that is their actual profession.
The last half of the film descents into familiar territory as an all to easy 'Aliens' clone, well who are we kidding it basically turns into 'Pitch Black'. The ever decreasing team fight against the odds as lots of those mud pool monsters come after them during a big rain storm. Thing is how did Riddick know this would happen? I don't think he experienced this beforehand and how come there are lots of mud pools all of a sudden?. I thought we left those behind in the rocky region??.
Don't get me wrong this section of the film is fun if somewhat predictable seeing as its a rehash. The problem with this film is the plot holes and lack of a coherent story. Riddick and Johns speed off to retrieve the power cell things for the ships (on those admittedly cool hover bikes) which appears to be some distance away. After some fisticuffs shenanigans and alien battles Johns and Riddick are forced to walk back! and they do it in half the time it took them to get there!.
I guess what I'm saying is the film is very badly written and developed but it has some fantastic effects and lavish sci-fi porn. Most of the effects are CGI and you can tell, many shots are clearly live action against CGI backdrops but it still looks quite slick. The atmospheric colour palette, hover bikes, spaceships, creatures and realism of the planet are attractive to sci-fi geeks such as myself. They just let it all down with such mindless questions, errors and moments of complete ludicrousness like the death scene of one bad guy and a big knife. Oh and the sequence where the mercs all discuss opening a possible booby trapped locker by Riddick for nigh on six or seven minutes!!!! yep that's right, they stand around and talk it over for around that length.
Moan over and believe it or not I did like this film. Its silly sci-fi hokum with an array of cheese collected from various other sci-fi films (mainly its own franchise!) but it does work and it is a fun ride. Riddick is a likable lone wolf which helps a lot and its nice to see an adult orientated flick too. Its all essentially just about Riddick trying to get off world, that's it, not complicated, just needed to be a bit more original perhaps. I would have stuck with the lone survival aspect some more myself. And shame on you Twohy for giving us the old emotional pet death sequence, you know everybody chokes up on that stuff damn it!. Awww poor alien dingo doggie-like thing, Riddick would have been cool with an alien pet for future adventures.

I doubt these numbers will get us another movie. For a sequel, they will need to rake in some big home release money. This is peanuts for a movie these days.

Watch the director's cut of the last one.
I saw Riddick not too long ago, and while I enjoyed it, I thought the first half (him stranded alone on a planet full of viscious beasts) was significantly stronger than the second half (the Pitch Black redux). If they continue, I can see them doing a sort of Monte-Carlo-In-Space style revenge story.

While they're at it, they should give us a Bioraptor all Necromongered up. Just 'cause :P
But really, I'm very interested in seeing what they do moving forward. The Underverse concept will be very interesting to see realized on screen. I just picked up the Blu-ray trilogy, and am really looking forward to seeing a hint towards that in the unrated version of the new one.

GREAT NEWS.
love me some Riddick.
There are not enough films like these anymore. Films that are not afraid to be straight up entertaining sci-fi flicks. They kinda remind me of early John Carpenter films.
looking forward to where they take the series. UNDERVERSE and FURYA are heavily implied to be the next two films.
Would really like an animated film adaptation of the Escape from Butcher Bay game. Would also like to find out more about Riddick - What he used to be before he was a wanted man, why hes the most wanted man in the universe etc....

Didn't get into the new Riddick, it just seemed pointless and plodded on and basically shows Vin Diesel can't be in a non Fast and Furious movie unless he pays for it.

Well, the last one ended with him f**king a lesbian character straight, which was weird for what was the gayest action movie I'd seen in some time (and also considering Chronicles' camp appeal). Nonetheless, I'm in for whatever Diesel and Twohy give us next.
Super excited and super happy!
You know your movie is in trouble when the best character is a CG dog. Riddick was such a waste after what Chronicle set up.
It was the weakest, sure but still great film and very Riddick. I hope we'll get more world building in this one.

Same. I loved the simplicity of the last one,
I kinda prefer the last one over the second.
I was not a fan of the more esoteric stuff they introduced. I would have prefered more crime, bounty hunter and prison action than prophecies, oracles and ghosts.
The first game for the old Xbox had it right IMO.
Awesome! I like Riddick adventures.
Quote from: Gazz on Jul 23, 2019, 02:59:33 PMWell, the last one ended with him f**king a lesbian character straight,
I have no memory whatsoever of this. ???
Katee Sackhoff's character, if I'm not mistaken, states in some way or another that she is a lesbian despite the aggressive advances of the other characters (Riddick included). And then the film ends with the heavy implication that they're now screwing.
I remember the character, but not anything sexual beyond Riddick spying and some flirting. Then again, I haven't seen the film since it was released.
YUUUUSSSSSS!!!
Also, at the end of Riddick, the presumption is that he ends up 'balls deep in Dahl', as he said he would.
Except they both leave on different ships, and there was no time or opportunity for that.
They boinked.
Also, I much preferred Riddick to Chronicles. It was more in line with the tone of Pitch Black instead of randomly turning into Vin's D&D campaign like Chronicles did.
Pitch Black and Riddick are aces for me.
Chronicles is basically a wreck, IMO.
Chronicles is a fun stupid movie for me, it just should have been its own thing.
I adore Chronicles. It gives this universe whole new spinn. The abilities of main baddie is something different altogether.

Although we're talking about a less impressive and cheaper film: the criminals, wasteland planets and monsters gave me an Alien 3 vibe :laugh:
Well Twohy wrote the Alien 3 script that introduced the space prison concept, so that's not surprising.
Yeah it's not really a coincidence.

Well, there is one thing for sure..."The Chronicles of Riddick" is like Prometheus in the sense that they were trying to change the original formula into something else.

If you like Chronicles, read the novelization - it has a whole appendix that goes into the history and practices of the Necromonger culture, it's pretty cool.
I used to hate Chronicles for the same reason I hated Resurrection and to a lesser degree Prometheus (I dislike Prometheus for a variety of reasons and this is just a minor one). It just didnt feel like the same universe.
But over the years it grew on me quite a bit.
I think probably the difference between Chronicles and Resurrection is that Chronicles is balanced with Riddick being pretty much the same character in both films with the other recurring characters also helping anchor the movie, whereas Resurrection continues to be an Alien movie with NONE of the same characters.
Ripley 8 is just the bizarro version of Ripley.
You don't NEED to have the same recurring characters in every movie, but if you are, don't go Ripley lite.
I'd go PB, Riddick (more true to the original), and then Chronicles. But the margin between Chronicles and Riddick is very slim.

I liked Chronicles as well. I liked how it changed its sci-fi subgenre from horror scifi to space opera in the middle of the continuing adventures. Sort of like Halloween III switched its horror subgenre in the middle of that franchise. I know some viewers don't like it when the filmmakers stray from a given film universe's norm, but I more often than not, like those hard left turns.
Like From Dusk Till Dawn. I knew nothing about the film, never knew it even existed until I saw it in the bargain bin. Rodriguez/Tarantino crime thriller....sounds good, popped it in. My mindset was fully focused on a real world-like premise crime thriller - meaning, supernatural elements didn't exist in this story - until it turned on a dime with its hard left turn to vampire movie. Totally unexpected. I dig it.

Although we're talking about a less impressive and cheaper film: the criminals, wasteland planets and monsters gave me an Alien 3 vibe :laugh:
Well, as Andrews said: Here are the facts.
Riddick 4: Furia. Also the name of the planet.
Alien 3. The planet called Fiorina "Fury" 161.
AR. IIRC, Gediman said something like hybrid-name - "Furia".
So. Maybe it's all the same universe?
Anyway, it would be curious to see Riddick versus Alien.
Something like: Ripley crashed on Fiorina "Fury" 161. Then the same plot. In the end Riddick survive and WY redirects him to the Butcher Bay.

I'd go PB, Riddick (more true to the original), and then Chronicles. But the margin between Chronicles and Riddick is very slim.
Yeah. Like Alien, Alien 3, Aliens.

Never thought about the Fury 161-Furya connection... Can't remember offhand, but in the Twohy script is it set on Fury?

I adore Chronicles. It gives this universe whole new spinn. The abilities of main baddie is something different altogether.
If you like Chronicles, read the novelization - it has a whole appendix that goes into the history and practices of the Necromonger culture, it's pretty cool.
I'll search for it though I imagine it won't be easy to come by in my country.

My dad feels that way. He thinks Alien 3 is a whole lot closer to Alien than Aliens is.
I don't feel the same way though. Drop a Marine with a pulse rifle in Alien, and he'd have the Alien sinking through the floors in no time. It's the same movie, but with different circumstances.

Another Army story: I had never played D&D until I deployed.
The random Ethiopian base had like 20 forcepro there, one got tired of the isolation and asked for a transfer. I got asked to swap with him. Which was fine because Ethiopia was where all the lower enlisted of my actual unit was at (we were attachments for our sister unit because they were understaffed). Those guys were all combat vets, but they were also HUGE nerds. I guess if your nerdom can survive being shot at constantly in Iraq and Afghanistan you don't really care about others perception of you. I was lean meat and pretty ok looking so I was still in the score chicks mode even though nobody else was. There was a big booty civil affairs chick there and several female seabees, and an AF intelligence officer. I was gonna shoot my shot.
So they kept trying to get me to play with them and I kept coming up with excuses not to. Finally about a month in I decided to join them. There was only ONE internet line to camp which could only be used when the TOC went into a cold status, one satellite phone you could call back in, and an MWR with two TVs. (which is still high living compared to a groundpounding deployment). So once you got bored at working out after shift there was NOTHING TO DO but read or maybe watch one of the same movies you had already watched on your laptop.
I joined my fellow redlegs in their late night escapades playing D&D and had a pretty fun time.
The only thing I didnt like is the DM wouldn't let us use human characters.
I definitely helped pass the time.
I never played it again after we rotated back to Djibouti or the States, but it served its purpose there. I also don't tend to look down on people who seem to have nerdier obsessions than my own like I did before. If people enjoy it, and its harmless, then it's fine.

Vin Diesel gives update on Riddick 4 and potential new Riddick game
QuoteYou may know Vin Diesel as Dominic Toretto, but to a legion of sci-fi fans, the actor is most loved for his portrayal of the prison-breaking, shiny-eyed Richard B. Riddick.
Diesel has played the character in three movies – Pitch Black, The Chronicles of Riddick, and Riddick (yes, the series' naming convention is almost as confusing as the Fast and Furious movies) – and a fourth installment has long been mooted. In fact, the title Riddick 4: Furya has been floating around the internet for a few years now.
So, how are things going with the sequel? When GamesRadar+ meets Diesel to talk Fast and Furious 9, we asked the box-office record-setting behemoth for an update on both Riddick 4 and whether a follow-up to the acclaimed games in the Riddick series – Escape From Butcher Bay and Assault On Dark Athena.
"It's so funny, I was just wearing my Furyion shirt," Diesel says. "[Director] David Twohy, he wrote a great script. It's just a matter of timing when we get that opportunity to shoot that. But I believe we're shooting that in Australia. And it would be the fourth chapter in that series, which would be awesome."
He adds: "We did have great success with Escape From Butcher Bay. It feels like an eternity ago now. But, I imagine that we would take advantage of the gaming space and add an extra chapter, but definitely, the [movie's] script is already written. So it's safe to say that we are moving towards filming the fourth chapter of Riddick."
Fingers crossed that Diesel, who will be filming the sequel to F9 in January, can find some time in his busy schedule to venture to Australia for Riddick 4 – and, if not, they do finally "take advantage of the gaming space" once again.
Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay was, at the time of release, called "One of the boldest and most expertly designed titles of the year" by GamesRadar+, with general reviews praising the game, which acts as a prequel to Pitch Black. The sequel, Assault on Dark Athena, was not quite as well-received, though did include a full HD remake of Escape From Butcher Bay. (Unfortunately, the Xbox 360 version is not backward compatible with Xbox One and beyond. Dear reader, we have tried.)
Riddick 4: Furya does not have a release date of filming date. For more Diesel, check out our guide to watching the Fast and Furious movies in order.

I need another one of these movies, it's low key Vin Diesel's best franchise. And since the article mentioned the series' naming convention, they should have directly mimicked Rambo's:
Pitch Black
Chronicles of Riddick: Pitch Black Part 2
Riddick III
Please no.
A final movie to round it all off would be good. I liked Riddick, but it needs to follow the theme of every second movie being some bombastic space opera.
Haha yeah...
Pitch Black
The Chronicles of Riddick
Riddick
The Legacy of Riddick
I'd laugh so hard
I haven't watched any of these since the 2013 film released, so I'm due for a rewatch of all of them, but if they are going to continue with another one then I want to see them lean hard into the batty sword & sandals space opera flavor again. Go full Conan the Barbarian in space.

That is the trend. Especially when Vakko says in Director's Cut of Riddick, "Transcendence." I think we will see Underverse and Furya.
Lets hope with no standout superpowered lord marshal we get to see a full scale civil war where the necro empire implodes on itself over the throne.
God I'd love another Riddick game by the guys who made Butcher Bay, that game was fantastic.
They were both good games but one was almost a great game.
I don't remember the naming convention but the first one was one of the best movie tie in games ever.
While people seem to like the B movie formula with Riddik fighting space monsters, we already had that one.
I think it would be more interesting to go the space opera route, although I think you can have both in a single movie, which would be expensive for this franchise anyway. :laugh:

The Tomorrow War borrowed from the Mud Demon design.
It still looks great.
Funnily enough I just found myself wondering about another one.
If it's not high fantasy/space opera I don't give even half a f**k. Give me more Chronicles.
Last one had both and Riddick did got back to Necromonger fleet. I'd assume we will have allot of space opera action in the next one.
And Karl Urban achieved transcendence.
It was so sidelined I can barely remember it compared to the escape/savage themes. Big budget 40k knockoff again or bust.
And we all know, after that you comeback... different.
Yeah, I think we can assume we'll get more of bizarre fantasy superpowers.
Didn't like chronicles at all.
First movie was the only good one.
We already got a pseudo-Pitch Black remake in Riddick. I'm down for some more Chronicles-esque shenanigans in the next one.
Didn't like Riddick either.
Just Pitch Black, the two sequels feel like they are in a different universe reallt.
The 1st could have been at home in the Alien universe IMO.
Diesel's best performance, instantly becoming iconic. Curious about this one, but I'll stay cautious after the disappointment that Riddick was.
Love all three of them. Such fine s-f movies they are. All different but joined by Riddick character. Best performance by Diesel by far. Only Find Me Guilty and Babilon A.D. are on pair.
I think vin plans to make furya after he's done with the FF Franchise.
Definitely looking forward to another Riddick movie, it's promising that Diesel is posting about a new one again.
As far as I remember we are promised with two more. Underverse (which I think is the next one) and final Furya after that. I wouldn't mind old Diesel finally comming home and find some piece.

Pitch Black feels so disjointed with the other two films that I just have gotten into the habit of pretending it's its own thing. To me, there are only two Riddick movies - Pitch Black is off by itself, and I can enjoy the sillyness of the Riddick films in peace lol

karl urban as vaako needs to return, those two need to hash it out.
Underverse/Furya
Two more would be great, but i think he'll just make furya.
I think he's said something about making them into one movie.
Of course I'd love two more instead of one more, but still you can't do wrong with more Riddick.
I got this feelin' that when he finds furya he's gonna go off on a Toretto speech about family.
I'm definitely looking forward to more
Riddick films, especially continuing with the
Chronicles narrative. 8)

Riddick was supposed to be transported to the
Fiorina 161 Class C Work Correctional Unit, until the ship was damaged and forced to make an emergency landing. :laugh:
But seriously, I agree as it really does feel like a totally different beast.
Pitch Black is well done B-horror movie.
The Chronicles of Riddick feels like a pastiche of a
Dune-like space opera.
Riddick tried to be like the original, but in a way it does feel like part of the space opera and not so much of
Pitch Black, with that last one staying as a retro-futuristic stanalone movie; with all and its gritty barren planet plus the ship, wich reminds me that Ian Hunter & Matthew Gratzner, both artists behind the feature-film visual effects of
Pitch Black, were also working together in
Alien: Resurrection.
https://youtu.be/eZrC5D2qDaE
Speaking of which, Riddick admiring bioraptors, almost like he identifies with them much better than with humans, adds some eerie personality traits to the antihero - in the spirit of Ash (
Alien) but more in a comic book style, ala Ripley 8.

I get the feeling that Vin is thinking he might not get to do more. Riddick took ages to get made, and it didn't light the world on fire box office wise.
The last entry played the meta card way too much. Riddick was too much aware of his image in the public eye and played it too cocky too many times, appearing silly more than badass IMO.
He might as well go the animated route to get it made i think
First animated one was very nice. I wouldn't mind another try.

Dark Fury is good, but there's a weird change in animation styles partway through that always throws me off.
Escape from Butcher Bay and Assault on Dark Athena are fantastic. Some of the best first person action games of all time.

I sadlt never got to play Assault on Athena.
I never got to play through all of Butcher's Bay, but I did Dark Athena. Athena wasn't bad but I seem to remember that there was a lot more variance in Butchers than there was in Athena. Like actual sidequest and stuff.
But it is also entirely possible I am misremembering.

That makes sense. Assault on Dark Athena wasn't originally intended to be a full game. They couldn't get backward compatibility for Butcher Bay, so it was supposed to be a remaster for the X360. They expanded it and turned it into an expansion campaign which acts as a sequel.
I love the Riddick franchise, especially the first game.
This franchise is really in need of some good Expanded Universe.
There are no comics and only 2 movie novelizations.
I have even toyed with the idea of creating a website for this universe but there's just too little content.

The novelization for Chronicles of Riddick is super cool. Aside from being written by Alien movie novelization scribe Alan Dean Foster, it has a whole appendix that goes into the history and culture of the Necromongers, it's really neat.
Will the Necromongers be in it or will it waste my time like the third movie did?
Hey the necromongers were in the third one! Technically!
Also the third movie was still cool, since it had Riddick in it.
Needs more 40k flavor.
Too many people and too much going on in the 2nd one for my taste. I prefer the survival feel of films 1 and 3.
If they're gonna do another one, gotta go all out insanity like Chronicles.
I hope he finally finds Furya, after killing Vaako, of course. 8)
He really should have no issue with Vaako, considering the director's cut ending of Riddick.
Here I am crossing my fingers for his return. Karl Urban did a superb job playing that character. 8)

Pitch Black could easily fit into the franchise.
The rest not so much.
While I've grown to enjoy Chronicles quite a bit, the jarring shift from mostly grounded sci-fi to high fantasy in space still baffles me.
I don't see the Alien and Riddick universes as being compatible at all... but I do think that Predator is flexible enough a concept that a Predator could just be dropped into the Riddick universe.

Yeah, that movie is dark and gritty enough to fit in the Alienverse. Everything else is completely different.
First pitch black movie could easily fit, similair ships and technology and similair living structure etc.
The problem is how to fit chronicles of riddick and riddick 3 which is the opposite and nothing like the alien franchise.

Can you inagine Riddick visiting Fiorina "Fury" 161? He'd fit in. Wait.. Riddick is trying to find Furia, his honeworld which is where his race of Furyians lived.
Woah.. now I can see a crossover. I'd even be happy with a Final Fantasy movie type fim.
Morse is Riddick's ancestor

Yeah, I believe so while filming the latest Fast and Furious film.
Ah ok. I heard he wasn't easy to work with in Babylon AD also, but not to the point of making someone quit.
Yeah, Justin Lin apparently quit Fast X over Diesel's behavior only three days into shooting.
Wake up babe, it's time for your annual reminder that Vin Diesel wants to make another
Riddick.
The previous post is concept art
I wonder if it's going to be a sequel to
The Chronicles of Riddick (more Necromongers stuff), or another movie about the character fighting monsters.
Since the Furya title seems to be sticking, it seems to me like the intent is that this one (if it ever happens) would be more in the vein of Chronicles again.

This.
Quote from: [cancerblack] on Sep 26, 2021, 05:38:09 AMIt was so sidelined I can barely remember it compared to the escape/savage themes. Big budget 40k knockoff again or bust.
And this.
Back in the day, there was idea od two sequels one called Underverse was supposed to resolve the necromonger arc and Furya was supposed to be final one with Riddick finally going home.
Riddick: Homecoming ?

Vin Diesel, David Twohy Reunite For 'Riddick: Furya': Hot EFM TitleQuoteEXCLUSIVE: Vin Diesel and David Twohy are reuniting for Riddick: Furya, the fourth installment of the action series that launched with the 2000 hit Pitch Black.
Twohy will direct his script. Diesel will star and produce under his One Race Films banner alongside Samantha Vincent, who will also produce.
Rocket Science and CAA Media Finance will launch worldwide sales at this week's EFM.
In the new film, Riddick finally returns to his home world, a place he barely remembers and one he fears might be left in ruins by the Necromongers. But there he finds other Furyans fighting for their existence against a new enemy. And some of these Furyans are more like Riddick than he could have ever imagined.
Diesel and Twohy followed Pitch Black with 2004's The Chronicles of Riddick, and 2013's Riddick.
"Our legion fans have demanded it for years, and now we're finally ready to honor their call-to-action with Riddick: Furya," Twhoy said. "My collaboration with Vin and One Race has spanned 20 fruitful years, as together we've created three movies, two video games, an anime production, and motion comics for the internet. This new big-screen event will see a return to Riddick's homeworld, where we finally get to explore Riddick's genesis."
Diesel continues as one of Hollywood's most bankable action stars, headlining the Fast and Furious Saga and voicing Groot in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. Other credits include Saving Private Ryan, xXx, and Bloodshot. He will next be seen in Fast X, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3, and "ARK: The Animated Series."
In addition to writing and directing the three previous Riddick films, Twohy's scripting work includes The Fugitive, and he wrote and directed the alien horror pic The Arrival, and supernatural thriller Below.
Diesel is represented by CAA, Linden Entertainment, and Felker Toczek Suddleson Abramson McGinnis Ryan. Twohy is represented by Atlas Artists.
In Berlin, Rocket Science's EFM slate also includes: Michael Gracey's Better Man; Conor McPherson's Girl from the North Country, based on the Bob Dylan Broadway show and starring Olivia Colman, Woody Harrelson, Tosin Cole, and Chloe Bailey; Alex Winter's The Adults starring Evan Rachel Wood, Josh Gad, and Anthony Carrigan; Peter Cataneo's The Penguin Lessons starring Steve Coogan. Peter Farrelly's Ricky Stanicky starring Zac Efron and John Cena, recently acquired by Amazon Prime Video.

Back in the early days of my existence I hated when franchises leaped from one tone or genre to another. So naturally I hated chronicles when it first released because it felt so different to PB. PB felt more like alien, and chronicles felt more like SW, so it was like having ripley 8 fighting storm troopers in the second. It just didn't mesh with what we saw in the first movie.
Now after having been influenced by hundreds of japanese anime, it doesn't bother me near as bad.
There is more to do in a movie like Chronicles than solely another monster film with bounty hunters.
I still prefer the OG movie to all of them though.
Given the title and plot synopsis here, I'm very excited to see that Furya seems to be leaning harder into the knockoff 40K/space opera elements of Chronicles. Glad to finally have an official green light on this thing after so long; hopefully it goes into production soon.
Yeah, it does look like it's more inline with Chronicles. Would need a big budget though.
Family fights! In space 🤭😁👉👈

This line will be said at some point in the movie:
"Do you know what 'Furya' means in the common tongue? Family."
I don't know it for a fact. I just know I'm right.

I don't know if I'd laugh or cry if that made it into the next Riddick movie.
haha I'd definitely laugh at that.

Grrr...
Very happy about this, and hoping for some more Riddick EU material (games, comics, etc.)
Looking forward to seeing the interaction between Riddick and Vaako.
Quote from: Master Chief on Feb 28, 2023, 03:15:02 PMLooking forward to seeing the interaction between Riddick and Vaako.
Aye. Hoping for a lot of Necromonger action in this this one as we return to the space opera shenanigans of
Chronicles.
I'd rather it strike a balance between Pitch Black and Chronicles.
Well, I'd definitely never say no to some more space monster action thrown into the mix, too. ;)
After the recent Furya announcement, I got in the mood and revisited Pitch Black, Dark Fury, and Chronicles for the first time since 2013 (and will be revisiting Riddick for the first time since then very soon as well) and have been having a lot of fun reacclimating myself with this messy little franchise that could. It's all through and through earnest, big swing storytelling that feels like a Vin Diesel D&D OC navigating his way from a truckers in space Alien-knockoff one-shot and into a massive "custom character in a video game cutscene" world without so much as a wink at the audience, because there's no joke to let the audience in on.
I'm all in on wherever Diesel and Twohy are taking Space Conan next.

I like 40k esque space opera and all 😅, but I think I would definitely appreciate balance as well.
Watched Riddick last night; it was my first time seeing the Unrated cut of that one. Quite liked how hard this one tries to emulate the stylings of a Frank Frazetta painting, especially once they reach "Not-Furya," and I was pretty blindsided by the added ending scene that's basically just there to queue up Furya. Really look forward to seeing how the next one continues on from that little "Transcendence" revelation...
Riddick Unrated does seem very interesting, I might have seen parts of it in deleted scenes, but no the whole movie.
QuoteHad some really great Riddick meetings this week... only to find that all three films are in the top ten Netflix movies. Wow. So grateful to our Furyan community. Haha.
Happy creative Sunday...

The Furyan attached to that pic, would be a great film poster.
Thats the title of the movie? The Instagram post is not loading for me.
It's just the caption for the art.
Probably still Riddick: Furya then
Honestly, I hate how a decent sci-fi monster movie has become a series of ever escalating mystical/super powered hero movies.

That only happened in the second movie, and then it went back to being a monster movie in the third one.
They should do another game to support the movie

Sounds out of character for Vin Diesel. Has he done these kinds of things before?
Don't see anything negative on his Wikipedia page.
He came off as kind of a douche in that feud with the Rock, but nothing this bad before.
As insignificant as it may sound, I stopped following him on @IG. I only follow him to know more about Riddick future.
I remember he was coming on way too strongly in one interview with a female reporter.
Not sure what to think about all this, but I still hope to see another Riddick movie.
