I’m all for it. Love the Riddick franchise, so fun.
- Furya? Seems a little late to try to ride the Furiosa hype, but I’m always down for more Riddick. - To be fair, the Furya sequel was planned long before Fury Road was even out. But Fast and Furious was in full swing, so it sat on the back burner forever. - That makes me Furyas. - Don’t be riddickulous - I am Groot. 
 
 
- Also to be fair, the Chronicles of Riddick named Riddick’s home planet Furya before either new Mad Max movie was even being written. 
- I had no idea! That’s pretty interesting, and also slightly annoying since I’d much rather have more Riddick instead of Fast and Furious 25 through 89: This Time It’s Even More Furiouser™. - Damn, I don’t remember shit about this franchise. Time for a rewatch, I suppose. - First 2 are classic grand scifi and really among my favorite space movies and then there is a third movie. - Hey the third was a good enough retread of the first, all up until the part where Riddick’s hot bod can apparently cure lesbianism. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
- The only good movies were the first two, that last one was straight assssss - There was a third movie? Huh, TIL - It’s just called “Riddick” and it’s real fuckin’ boring. - Good to know I didn’t miss anything then. 
- I thought the ending was pretty good. Karl Urban was in it too, right? 
 
 
 
- So far, nothing beats or even compares to Pitch Black. Dark Fury does a solid to empower the lore, however. - Pitch Black is on a different plane than Riddick films IMHO. I don’t know anything about the intents of the production, but Pitch Black is just great standalone sci fi. Riddick movies felt like universe-dependent comic book movies always do, which is to say, different than the typical standalone sci fi. - That’s a fair assessment. With that being said, The Chronicles of Riddick is the most fun out of all of them. 
 
 
- Good or bad, I’m always down for more Riddick, those polished eyes are so shway. 
- I like the Riddick movies but this guy has become a bit of a dull pain to watch and the allegations make it even worse.
