I like how Vin used the fast and furious franchise to leverage the studio to give him the rights to the Riddick franchise by only agreeing to the cameo in fast and the furious 3 if they gave him the rights to Riddick

Where is that blade coming from? They clearly have vertical curved bone-blades, horizontal bones (not blades), tail, wings and legs. In the above 2 scenes, the blade can be seen to be different from (and away from) the curved skull-blade. So where is that straight-ish blade coming from?

Never understood why so many people talk about and focus on *Riddick* when Pitch Black is discussed. It's Fry's story. Fry drives the plot, Fry has the clearest arc, Fry surely has the most screentime. Riddick is barely present in the first half. He's cool, yeah, but Radha Mitchell owns her role as the guilt-ridden protagonist, and deserves much more praise for that.

Well, there were several things that ruined it for Fry in the last 45 minutes of the show... 1) She got upstaged by Riddick. 2) Then she got overshadowed by Riddick. 3) Then her character got killed forcng her to pass the baton to Ruddick. 4) With no plot armor and no golden parachute she got written out of the script. 5) in the end, it was Riddick who flew away in the ship instead of Fry.

@@hellbent7066 wha.....the only one of those that makes any sense is #5. Fry's death happens with less than 5 minutes left in the movie. It's literally the last story event before the survivors get in the ship and fly off. Riddick is a capable pilot so he's behind the wheel. That's all. Fry also has considerable agency later in the movie, especially when she confronts Riddick as he beckons her to leave the others behind, and she attacks him and berates him and convinces him to go with her. Riddick didn't really care about them much, and seemingly didn't consider the risk worthwhile at that point, but Fry's change of heart and her determination fascinated and motivated Riddick. He clearly didn't expect her to have such resolve, and he admired that and followed HER as a result. Riddick's a hardass but not a momster or a villain, hell, he really doesn't do anything wrong in the whole movie, he's just very determined to survive and he's very capable of making logical decisions to ensure his survival, without putting other people first. Riddick is.....how Fry was at the beginning, when she tried to kill all the passengers to save the rest of the ship. It was a logical move, and a safer one for her and her copilot, but it was still cold, too cold for her copilot, so he sabotaged her lever and stopped her from releasing the other sections of the ship. Fry in that moment would have killed more people than Riddick surely ever had, and done so knowingly, and that was her choice. Her burden. She redeems herself at the end by refusing to leave the others behind, and martyrs herself as she saves Riddick, telling him "I said I'd die for them not you, come on!" And then subsequently dying anyway, devastating Riddick in that situation. If you truly think Fry isn't important or relevant after the darkness hits you just need to rewatch the movie.

I like how they flip the traditional plot direction on it’s head in a way. At first you think the “Nickel slick badge” merk is the good guy who’ll get them all out of there alive, and Riddick is the main antagonist, when in reality Johns is not all that great and is addicted to morphine, and Riddick while not having the most clear moral compass, is not truly heartless but realistic in his views and is very aware of his surroundings and can see right through people and their bullshit

what i love is that the actual protagonist of the movie is fry, and yet her character growth and morality are rewarded with a violent, albeit heroic, death. the lesson is that Riddick had the better philosophy, even though it was twisted and his traditional "goodness" was entirely inspired by fascination more than anything else.

My favorite part of this movie is the amazing color scheme. For the first third or so of the film, everything is bright blue because of the configuration of two of the three Suns above the horizon. And then everything switches as one Sun rises and another sets before the eclipse which plunges the whole planet into blackness. David Twohy's other Riddick movie is like that, too. Where the characters have to avoid the harsh environment of the Planet they're on along with all the other established dangers in the narrative. It's actually quite brilliant. The planet has three suns and you definitely feel that all throughout the movie. It's hot and oppressive and you almost feel dry-mouthed and dehydrated just watching it lol the environment is almost as much a character as the cast. It's one of the more thoughtful science fiction stories in recent decades. Because it's such a well thought out concept.

Gotta admire Vin's commitment to this franchise. Turned down 2 million bucks at the start of his career for Chronicles, the leverage his cameo in Tokya Drift for Riddick. Also went and founded his own game development studio just for two freaking game. Now, at 52 years old, he just tweeted that the script for the final film has been written, and that production is starting up. I expect that this will be the last we ever see of the character on screen. Hopefully, Vin invests in another videogame or even a comic series. Whatever it takes to keep this franchise alive. Riddick, both the character and the universe, just have so much potential that it'd be a shame to see it die with this last film.

That full sequence is absolutely sublime. The stages of the eclipse from first sight to its mesmeric rise, until it obscures a whole swathe of the sky, while the suns are progressively obscured - first by the rings and then by the planet itself, interspaced by their effect of developing gloom over world and the desperate characters is true cinema art. And all the time, tension is racked-up by a pulsing orchestral piece supported by a quick - almost aboriginal - riff that is note and moment perfect. Small, but thoughtful details are the slight rainbows around the suns when obscured by the rings, indicative of diffracted light, the two rings themselves are actually rotating in opposite directions, and glowing coronal light patterns can be seen shimmering in the obscuring planet's atmosphere. All of these accessory effects heighten the realism of the sequence, which finishes with a last flare of light before the suns are completely eclipsed...

@alphalancer
@alphalancer 2 жыл бұрын
It's an interesting thought to explore, but I think it would loop back to Fry turning into a character like the female "Riddick" bounty described in the original draft. Fry's arc in the film is her seeking redemption after being willing to sacrifice the passengers to save her own skin, and only being spared the guilt of having done so because she waits too long before the ship is totally doomed. Throughout the film, Riddick praises her survival instincts, tells her she did nothing wrong (or would have done, in this case), and even proposes she repeat the decision in miniature by leaving Jack and Imam to their fate when catches up to him at the shuttle. Although she never really rebuts his judgement of her thoughts and actions, she chooses not to follow through on "what would Riddick do?", twice: forcing him to help her save Jack and Imam, then sacrificing herself so Riddick can fly the shuttle. The only way Fry could leave on the shuttle was to become like Riddick, whether going as far as becoming someone approaching the unused female bounty or becoming someone more like how Jack/Kira is handled in Chronicles. Either way, you're entirely right, it could have been an interesting follow-up to see.

BTW: I am curious about your accent, Niyat. To me, it sounds more like a posh British/London accent than Australian or New Zealandic, but a bit of the Aussie lilt comes through here and there. Can you illuminate me on your origins?

You are spot on, Hector. I can't believe how many that I have known that never knew about this movie, and they love it after seeing it. It totally flew under the radar when it first debuted.

Vin turned down 2 million bucks to star in 2 fast 2 furious and spent 50k to ensure the Riddick series kept going. What a bad ass! I love both franchises but Vin will always be Richard B. Riddick.

The bioraptors are not native to the planet. They can't be, not if they killed off everything else; ecologies grow toward balance. Therefore (I've had fun thinking about this) they've been placed there by another star travelling species to kill off all animals life, to prepare the way for the others to colonize the planet. now that the bio-raptors have accomplished their first task, they become cannibals, and so they will be nearly extinct when the settlers arrive; who will be prepared for them. Near the end of the movie raptors start randomly falling out of the sky; they're attacking each other. I bought the trilogy and the video game.

Pitch Black. The Chronicles of Riddick. Both exceptional films for character, action, and especially story development. Chronicles of Riddick is phenomenal sequel blending past, present, & future for the universe Riddick dwells in. I wish all films took the time to be so intense with such depth of their characters & integral story elements. One can play the DVD versions of Pitch Black & Chronicles over & over, even into 2020, they both still seem timeless & relevant.

I'd love to see more movies set in the Riddick universe, it has such a cool aesthetic. Riddick's canon origin story also reveals him to be much less a murderer and more a man who doesn't blink at killing in order to survive. It also ties in beautifully with the ending of Pitch Black, as his care for Fry is a mirror of the tragedy that set him on his inescapably violent path across the stars.

I really liked Pitch Black when I first saw it as I didn't really know anything about it. The monsters were SUPER scary, some of the best creatures ever. The "mites/isopods" in Cloverfield, are similar and equally as scary since we only see flashes of them.

I had a major thing for Claudia Black and was a fan of Farscape so fell in love with Pitch Black. The franchise is one of the few I can remember and still be amazed on how the story changed and got better. Hollyweird is all but bankrupt on morals and imagination now to the point of not watching movies in over a decade. I wish I could relive the 80's up to 2000 when icons were made and not just remakes of comic books.

Lovely, This is a movie that sit's on my watched frequently shelf, It's got so many choice Actors, Like Claudia Black "Aeryn Sun" from Farscape. Not to mention how well Vin Diesel pulls-off his roll as Riddick. Just a great film. The ultimate soft hearted Bad A*S with reflective eyes, That you don't want to see in a dark shadowy ally.
