1. Yeah, the 'Chronicles of Riddick' had, in my mind, a bad case of Dune-itis. |
|
The character which was the pre-eminent focus of 'Pitch Black' got short shrift in 'Chronicles' - nothing a good script doctor couldn't have fixed, but I was disappointed.
Hope the new one redeems the last one.

3. "Riddick" has always had a lot of potential to it. |
|
They failed miserably with the last one. Let's hope they learn from that mistake.

I loved Chronicles. Yeah, it was fairly unrealistic cheesy scifi, but I love unrealistic cheesy scifi when it's done well.

6. I thought "Chronicles" was great. |
|
Most people like Pitch Black better, but to this old school horror fan it was entirely predictable. Get a group of people and isolate them, then kill them off one by one. The formula is as old as dirt, and I've seen it a brazillion times. It was a good movie, but entirely predictable. Chronicles was a different beast, and I loved it, even with the cheese it had in parts. I hope they can find a story that takes it further without falling into the total cheese trap.

LOVE the Riddick movies. Pitch Black was intensely terrifying and very original. Chronicles was just plain entertaining, kick-ass sci-fi.
More please!
