Judy Dench was an Elemental not a furion. Other than that great video!
Damn you right
And that's Thandie Newton, not Jada Pinkett Smith
That is not Jada Pinkett Smith.
That is Thandiwe Newton, an incredible actress.
30:04 - It's not Jada Pinkett Smith in the movie, it's Thandie Newton.
Yeah.. that part of the script was outright incorrect
Fun Fact: Pitch Black was originally written to be in the Aliens franchise.
I am a HUGE fan of Chronicles. No matter what anyone says, they swung for the fences and the movie is fun to watch.
Plus, I really like that Pitch Black and Chronicles are different genres
Pitch black will always be one of my favorite movies, and escape from butcher bay one of my favorite games. The last movie was really great too but I felt like they could have gone a just a little bit more original.
I agree with you on everything you said about the second movie. It's not objectively good. But it's fun to watch and has some very memorable parts. I love the aesthetics and idea of the necros.
Glad more people are getting into the Riddick franchise. The original Pitch Black was the first R rated film I saw in theaters with my dad, we highly enjoyed it.
I just happened to see Pitch Black in theatres on a whim. And I became a fan, and Chronicles of Riddick is a fun Sci-Fi fantasy adventure
Here from Jwlar video ❤
You've got a new fan, the starfield video reminded me of patrician TV and private sessions
Glad to see it!
More people need to see Reddick its very good
Both games deserve remaster after the fourth movie comes out
Riddick, nice.
Loved this game back it was released. Crown jewel of game adaptations that no one anticipated but they were good. The other 2 is Transformers Cybertron duo and Arkham games.
I've owned both games since release. Always found them super fun.
I love Chronicles! The other two movies were good too, (more so Pitch Black - due to the third one being more of a rehash of Pitch Black), but Chronicles was amazing. It had it's flaws, but noting remotely deserving the level of hate it received. It was one of the most original sci-fi universes in sci-fi film history and had a good story, great characters, with awesome action. Being a hardcore sci-fi fan myself, it really annoys the shit outa me the way the sci-fi fandom constantly bitches about there not being any "original" big-budget sci-fi movies, while then when an original sci-fi movie comes out they nit-pick it to death.
great video ty
The Matrix is another series (from same time period) with canon spanning across live-action movies, video games and animation.
There was an exploit in Escape from butcher bay. If you alternate attack and block quickly shiv fights became a chore rather than a challenge
Only thing I don’t like about franchise is lack of info I wish we had a movie explaining riddick universe his origin story, be able to see his character development from kid to who he is,like where is earth I see humans are on many planets and technology is more advanced it feels like some a bit far future idk.For me it’s just lack of info I kinda dislike I wish he had a first movie explaining most of things and other just following Riddick, very good movies tho.
3:26 don’t forget the animated film Dark Fury.
Edit: welp I’m a dumbass. Nicely done.
This was great, I am a huge fan of this franchise. I was maybe 13 or 14 I first saw Pitch Black, even at that time I absolutely loved monster movies. I loved the character of Riddick and was super exited when I saw that they were making a sequal to it which I still really enjoy while agreeing that the plot was pretty bad. I am exited to hear that another movie is in production and think that a modern Riddick game would be cool to see as well.
Great video, im pretty sure Butcher bay used to just have the doctor who does the eye shine when it originally came out, then was changed to Furion stuff when it was remade. This whole franchise has had a weird/rough ride.
Nope it didn't and that's not what happened. It DID have a doctor, down in those tunnels with the cannibal mutant things. However he didn't do the Eye Shine. He only fixed Riddick's arm, and told him as much. Riddick just convinced himself that the doctor was lying to him, and did the eye shine as well. It was basically a lie he told himself to keep from going crazy.
What happened is this. Right before Riddick got the eyeshine he started hearing voices, and freaked out. He was convinced that the doctor had done something to him. The doctor told him he didn't. What was actually happening was that he hearing the voices of his Furyan ancestors, as his Furyan blood started to awaken & racial abilities (eyeshine & genetic memory) started to manifest. However he had no idea what was going on. So it freaked him the hell out, and he was afraid he was losing his mind. So he denied that it was real, and convinced himself that the doctor had shined his eyes.
@@Kenshiro3rdyou don't know how glad to see this comment, most people missing the point so bad it made me go crazy
had Slam City, Blindsided, AND Merc Files, but skipping on Into Pitch Black? smh my head
edit: should have listened to the end lmao, you win this time 😂 would have been nice to have more thoughts on it though.
I thought it was a disaster lmao, sorry man it was so bad I feel it's better not being covered.
The best way to deal with the shiv combat, On a mouse and keyboard... Same thing with the Fist combat, Hit them into a stagger and then break target lock and get behind them.... Where you can then Grapple.... I don't know how well this would work on a controller, ask the target lock is designed around the controller limitation.... And it doesn't work in the boss fights as you're forced into target lock, But for the main Combat just immediately start trying to break lock and get behind them.
u know for as much as a meat head as he looks vin Diesels love of the reddick series and how out of his way he went for the games and the movies is kinda heartwarming, its things like this that humanize the wretched souls that infest hollywood and shine through as a glimmer of hope
A little tidbit ither than those thatvhave beennpointed put but it has always been available on the xbox 360 store. It's still there now until they shut them down. Free on pc os the best and most available for new players though.
Still wish that we could get a rerelease of the PC version for Butcher Bay and Dark Athena on Steam and/or GOG...
They released them both for free as abandonware
@@evprince good enough, though I wouldn't mind a possible remaster for modern hardware.
Anyway, the Riddick universe truly is underrated and it deserves more love especially since the video games are probably two of the best examples of games that tie into a movie franchise to exist with the possible exception of the 2009 Avatar game given how it takes place as a side story during the events of the film.
Wish that Universal would let Vin do another Riddick movie or game, preferably before he gets too old to act in Hollywood.
High llama! YOU WIIIIN!
I have a copy of this on xbox, ps3, and a digital copy on PC which bought years ago on amazon it's kind of hard to install the pc version like that. Abandonware is probably easier.
What do you think Happened To Judith Mossman in the never seen episode 3 That led her into becoming a pirate Queen... Thanks to valve we'll never know....
The remake has all of the additional combat features of The sequel, it's highly recommended to stick with that, not only because it works on 64 bit compatible Which solves a lot of problems in getting older games To run on modern systems but also it's a lot more flushed out and it has that 8 way lean system That they developed for the sequel And better shooting... The original had a lot of systems that were kind of halfway there, and the sequel fixes that by bringing them into their CompleteIteration... You'll notice a lot of them even carried over into the wolfenstein games.
I adore all the movie's, and the entire ridick franchise honestly its just becouse everyone is having fun with it and you can feel that
Bb suffered from the 2010s game syndrome and honestly felt like prey, im not complaining but still
i just want remasters of the old riddick games hopefully someone pitches that to vin
theres three movies?
TECHNICALLY 4
And watch dark athena
( RIDDICK CAN SEE IN THE DARK... In the game why do you need lights and flares!? I can clearly see his stupid shiny eyes )
Watched the 1st & 2nd movie for the first time two days ago = These movies were stupid… and the only comprehensive one is the 3rd movie.
I always saw the DVD covers growing up and thought it was an alien gore movie… turns out it’s a goofy sci fi movie and not scary at all. At best low level jump scares…
-----
Vin Diesel is a Muilti-Millionaire.. maybe even a Billionaire at this point with the Fast n Furious franchise = Just make it into an anime... He definitely did make one = KEEP GOING.
I'm writing a book with seemingly no end in sight, But I'd be happy if it ended up being an Anime. Creation come to life is better than pitching ideas to studios for a money to make the next movie.
Loved the universe setup from the first movie, but Jack getting recast didn’t work for me. If they’d kept the mystery of Riddick’s eyes and just made him an antihero in a nasty universe, it would’ve been better. It would have been Blade Runner meets Mad Max out in space. The possibilities could’ve been endless.
I will not stand for the Castlevania show slander in this video
Love the games. played through many times. Riddick is a cool character, but the 2nd movie was kind of a train wreck. The 3rd movie was badass. Can't wait for the new flick
Pitch black wasnt a b movie and it was a great movie and went down hill after.
It was a B movie. B movie doesn't mean bad it means less budget and marketing
WTF JADA PINKET SMITH what movie were you watching???????? Probably why you don’t think the movie is grate. You didn’t see it!
Yeah got that one wrong lmfao
3:17 but....my guy, there's actually legitimately 4 movies.....dark fury isn't just some side project....honestly gave you a thumbs down for that
I cover Dark Fury and literally call it the best thing the universe has to offer, though, like twice.
its vin diesel i could never play it
You talk waaaaaaaay too much, and constantly repeat yourself. Yawn.
