There are dozens of us! Dozens!
I’m with you. Knowing the general dislike of them, they’ve always been a guilty pleasure.
These movies are a blast. I genuinely like them. I think if FF didn’t exist, people wouldn’t be so publicly cruel to them. People act as if Vin Diesel is some kind of piece of shit, when really he’s just a typical movie producer and dork.
Riddick is the most interesting thing Diesel has ever produced. I love these movies. They’re a bit self serious and sorta cheesy, but a lot of the best scifi is.
Riddick 8: the Fast and the Furyaosa!
ill believe it when i see it. i feel like a new reddick movie has been “moving forward” for ages.
Hell yeah. That universe is so wacky. I love it.
Goddammit, could we not?
Can we get some entirely new films, please?
Riddick has to catch up to the FATF franchise.
I will miss his family.
I’m just hoping for a new Riddick game. Escape from Butcher Bay was amazing.
Cool.
Studios think this is a good idea? Listen, the Necromomongers had a cool aesthetic, but that’s about the only thing the Riddick universe has to offer. Vinny D needs another set of IP that’s not Riddick or Fast and Furious
No, the studios probably don’t think it’s a good idea.
Vin Diesel really loves Riddick. It’s his passion project. Universal was willing to let the franchise die after two films but he wasn’t, so he did a cameo in Tokyo Drift in exchange for the rights to the franchise. Then he independently raised funds for the third film and fronted a bunch of his own money, going so far as to mortgage his house to keep the production afloat.
I’m sure it’s the same with this fourth film. The series was never all that profitable so the studios wouldn’t push to make another one. It’s gotta be Vin Diesel pushing to have it made because he personally deeply cares about the franchise.
I can respect that.
I was just saying to someone that I think Riddick is one of those characters who are better the less you know about them, like the original film.
Of course all the sequels try to answer those questions.
On the other hand, the Xbox game, Escape From Butcher Bay, was one the better film tie-ins I’ve played.
You mean like xXx?
Oh for a sweet blessed time I’d forgotten about xXx.
But, more Riddick, please.
