I was always hoping a third one would be done. Hell, he went and did another Fast and Furious..why not do another Riddick?

I agree. Plenty of room to expand...

I thoroughly enjoyed this series... The only issue I had was with the second - It's like out of nowhere, worlds like that existed. It went from a horror-esk first film, to this vast sci-fi universe.

Kind of reminded me of the 1st Matrix compared to the 2nd, if that makes sense.

While I disagree with the Matrix comparison, I do wholeheartedly agree with the "out of nowhere" bit for Chronicles. I really liked Pitch Black, and since Chronicles never really fit for me, didn't like it anywhere near as much.

I liked the second one over the first. I just felt like the story was
'expanded' from the first movie.

Looks like more Universal to add to my collection. Boy, Universal is quickly becoming my fav studio of late, loving that DTS-HD MA. Keep em' coming Universal.

aqupunk · 02-05-2009, 09:00 PM

I REALLY wish we could get official announcement of this!

marks76 · 02-06-2009, 12:57 AM

I must be the odd man out. I really enjoyed both movies for what they were. Pitch Black as more of a horror movie based on a distant planet and Chronicles as a pure sci-fi action movie.

That was the intention. To not make the same style of movie twice.

Now there is NOTHING on hd dvd that i want. Were the hd dvd transfers good? I love these movies and i'm EXTREMELY excited about this.

I still have pitch black on DVD it was one of my first DVDS lol

KenThompson · 02-07-2009, 01:35 AM

A definate buy. My only question is why did it take Universal so long to release them. Still alot of movies they put on the dud format that we haven't seen yet.

Blu Titan · 02-07-2009, 01:38 AM

Pitch Black is great, and I never got to see The Chronicles of Riddick.

CoR wasn't as good as PB (imho). A worthy library addition for the scifi genre, but not as good of a movie.

No high bit rate treatment and/or DNR = No Sale.

XSilentCobraX · 02-07-2009, 06:34 AM

COR is already out here, has been for quite a while now, i love the movie, im not to happy about the directors cut though, while theres loads of stuff i did like, they removed some stuff from the original cut, that i did really like, how ever great movie.
