  • There is nothing like a grimy R-rated sci-fi series with an engaging plot, and the Riddick films have all the captivating mythology that you find in the likes of the Star Wars films! When the first installment of The Chronicles of Riddick franchise was released in 2000, little did we know that it was set to become a classic series! Pitch Black portrayed a tough-as-nails antihero that we all loved, and Vin Diesel’s rough and raw mannerisms added a certain charisma to the character. We have seen him fighting dangerous creatures, and in the movie, The Chronicles of Riddick, he took on the mighty race of the Necromongers! So, who is this mysterious Riddick? He is an intergalactic Furyan outlaw, who is seen in captivity in the first movie before he escapes. The character goes through a lot of changes, and his adventures provide fodder for the entertaining movies in the franchise.
    Over the years, this has been an underrated series, despite the dark and unforgiving nature of the narrative. In this video, we will dissect the franchise and bring you bits and pieces of the puzzle that you have been missing. From Riddick to the deadly Bio-Raptors, from the Necromongers to the Mud Demons, we will explain all for your convenience. In a world where the big-budget sci-fi action franchises are becoming increasingly bland, maybe it is a good idea to look up this good old gem one more time!

    The thing I always loved about Riddick is how he’s portrayed as this villain/murderer. While he does kill people, he usually warns them and/or they are trying to kill him. Also, when you look into why he’s even a criminal, he really shouldn’t be. He lowkey actually a good guy, forced to do bad things to survive. I love it. Vin diesel should have done at least one season of a tv series for this. It woulda been great. We honestly need to go to the underverse and furya

    In the extended version of the movie, we learn that Riddick doesn't go in search of Furya. He returns to the Necromonger ships and kills Krone who left him for dead. He then questions one of the servant girl. The girl was one of Riddick's servants at the beginning but came under Krone's command after the coup and he had been torturing the girl for fun. Riddick asks the girl if Vako is dead or alive, asking that she speaks only one word.
    She answers "Both"

      It was planned that they would go to the underverse in 1 or 2 movies after Chronicle but that may have been atleast partially changed because fans wanted movies more like Pitch Black. The way I remember the article, or interview or whatever it was, came across it sounded like Riddick would lead necromongers to the underverse. I'm not a big fan of creators caving in to what fans want but in the case of Riddick it does work better as a slow suspenseful action then all out action.

    It could be wrong but I had heard that Vin Diesel purchased the artistic, commercial products, film and print rights to the Riddic franchise. He loved being the character so much that he wanted to ensure more would happen with the project. By purchasing it and working with his director and writer friend they could ensure a studio would not just put it on a shelf forever.

      Yeah the first movie was always planned to be about Carolyn but over the course of filming they decided Riddick was a cooler character and decided to keep him instead. I wonder if maybe they filmed him not saving one of the kids before that decision then when they decided to keep him they had him save Jack, it's probably not a good idea to have the character you want to bring back shown as completely uncaring especially to an inmovie fan who wants to be him.

    Here are things we need to save the Riddick franchise:
    - Riddick travels to Furya to learn more of his past; thus goes to the Underverse to confront Vako (now a new Lord Marshall) in Riddick 4.
    - Another game that is a sequel to Assualt on Dark Athena and leads up to the opening of Pitch Black.
    - Boss Johns becomes a supportive character
    - Other worlds to explore
    - What is Shirah's role for Riddick?
    - A prequel movie or tv series that focuses on six Lord Marshalls before Zhylaw came in, he Rise of Necromonger Empire, and the Fall of Furya.
    - Bringing back the amount of blood & gore, thriller elements as done in Pitch Back, and add more complexity to the main anti-hero.
    - Learn more about the Elemental race

    Pitch Black - Probably the best, yes. Good sets, great plot, great cast, excellent execution. Excellent sci-fi fantasy thriller.
    Chronicles of Riddick - Frickin excellent sets, can't say enough about that aspect. Really made you feel like you were on alien planets in insane situations. Crazy weird plot with regard to the Necromongers. Decent execution. Over all, not a terrible movie, and exceptionally quotable. "Irgun. One of my best." "If you say so." _smirk_
    Riddick - This indeed was very similar in too many ways to Pitch Black, but it also had elements of that crazy gift these movies have for capturing hostile alien worlds on film. I liked it. I liked the extra touches involving Riddick's recovery from almost dying, slowly healing in a world bent on killing him a dozen different ways. Excellent sets, largely repetitive plot, good execution. "You keep what you kill, Riddick!! You keep what you kill!!"
    I love all of these movies in their own unique ways, and I'm endlessly disgusted at how we have only three Riddick movies and soon there will be TEN Fast and Furious movies. I'll grant you that Vin Diesel nails it as Dom, but he's an _exceptional_ Riddick. People that haven't seen these are truly missing out. Sucks sometimes to live in a society where dumb, repetitive race car bullshit is somehow VASTLY more interesting than some of the best sci fi fantasy action. Humanity needs to take a break from growing egos and hormones for two seconds to grow some brains to appreciate something truly creative.

The 3 movie was the director falling under peer pressure from som of the audience that wanted another pitch black while the main fanbase wanted more lore ,but sadly the director made the wrong decision but the movie was still good so meh.

    Elion prime forces were searching house to house looking for a supposed spy, remember that wen riddick arrived on elion prime he destroyed one of the planet defence strike craft.
    The knife on the necromancer back was already there before iman was killed.
    The Lord Marshall says one of his best not his best.
    Riddick doesn't gets out from the device by himself, the purifier, a furyan himself, releases Riddick.
    The necromancer ship is a troop dropship, they call it a sarcophagus, its not a battleship and it wasn't taken out by another ship, but by bounty hunters whit shoulder fired rockets.
    Vacko is never told why riddick is important, just ordered to kill him.
    The prison guards are the ones that use the tunnels not mercs and riddick never told the plan, Kira did once she realised what it was.
    Kira sneaks onto the necromancer frigate, after riddick is defeated by vacko and believed dead.
