Riddick

This is looking more like the first one, ridick in his true environment - might be cool as shieet !

Is there going to be any film left to watch if I view this trailer too?

Well Dux, pull it out because there's new fapping material:

Comic Con trailer (new footage):

Get the hand lotion Dux, this is a motion comic leading up towards the new film. I will not be held responsible for blisters and such.

Yes, a new one. With more new stuff. I think I've seen the film by now.

I don't even remember if it's a reboot or what. Why do they have such contemporary weapons? Prequel?

It's a sequel. The motion comic explains what happened between the last and this one.

Anybody seen this?

I did. It's about as bad as you expected from seeing the trailers. I still think it's better than Chronicles but that's not a very high bar. Pitch Black is still the best.

Good film. It's fun to watch. Kinda annoying they pretty much skimmed right over the second, but whatever.

Pitch Black was amazing!

Pitch black was awesome yeah, this is not. I guess inconsistency is to be expected from someone who has both The Fugitive and Waterworld in his back catalogue though. Think this series needs leaving behind now, they should have just left it after Pitch Black. I'd play more Riddick games though, they're decent

What's so bad about it? It knows it is a B movie and doesn't try to be anything more than that. That's why I enjoy it personally Bad guys turn up, riddick kills bad guys. The end.

I thought it was pretty good. A little bit more macho and action-ish and somewhat less of a thriller compared to Pitch Black. But definitely better than the horrible sci-fi/fantasy combo the second movie was (although it definitely had enjoyable parts). I really just wish they never introduced the necromongers and that flying woman (elementals?) and all of that weird fantasy shit. I just like to pretend that never happened and I erase those bits from this movie as well, luckily that was pretty short.

So yeah... I actually thought it was a pretty decent installment in the series, a small change in tone but nothing as major like the difference between the first and second.

Not gonna lie, it definitely could've had somewhat of a better story, it tried to mimic Pitch Black a bit too much but falls short. I guess I might just hold it in higher regard because I was expecting something like the second movie so I was pleasantly surprised. If it had to stand alone it wouldn't be great, just good.

Normally I can enjoy B movies as well, maybe it's just because I think the Riddick series had more potential than they made use of.

The first 45 mins of this could have just been cut completely, was basically just riddick alone on an alien planet, wrestling with terrible CGI creatures, doing pointless flips in the air to look cool, standing on high rocks naked for no reason and raising an alien dog that he's able to hold a conversation with (wtf was that all about?).

When the mercs arrived it did at least become watchable but the script was pretty awful and some of the acting was kinda dodgy. Also the special effects seemed to get worse, pitch black was a low budget movie but manged to cover it up well, they didn't seem to try here.

Overall the first half was crap and the second half was essentially a remake of pitch black that didn't need to be made. I did however watch it to the end, so that's saying something. I think i just wanted to see how bad it got though.

Finally saw it. Thanks for sharing guys. Pretty much everything has been said already and I'm with PaulH for the most part, so no need for me to repeat that. I think it was average. Pitch Black is still the best and I for one, really liked Chronicles.
