chronicles of riddick is one of the more underrated movies

Not only would I add myself to the list of people saying how amazing and underrated the Riddick Movie series is, but from the three movies, animated short and pair of games, it's hands down my favourite fictional universe to date.

Pitch Black is one of my fav movies of all time. Riddick is such a good character, toughest badass ever...

I wish more actors were so passionate about a project like he is. It gives the entire movie more heart (even if the heart will be devoured soon by some weird ass creature, but thats an aside :p)

The fact that Vin continues to do Riddick for so cheap is just amazing, I love this character and while he hasnt don't too well critically I've always enjoyed Riddick, I was disappointed by chronicles but this looks so damn enjoyable, I can't wait, the games bring out the best in the franchise honestly, I hope we see another Riddick in the future and Vin already said he's getting a team from star breeze together for a new game!

I'm glad he chose Riddick. Loved those movies.

not a lot of action stars can talk very intelligently in an interview, he's a great actor who's not all muscle but very clever too.. this guy is awesome

I owe it to a friend I spent a weird sleepover with, that I know the Riddick trilogy. Watching pitch black and chronicles was the best part of that night :)

He gave it up for the second film. That was after xXx too and they were talking about sequels to both FF and xXx. Vin turned them both down in order to make the Pitch Black sequel. That says a lot about his passion for the character. This guy isn't hung up on money, despite that he keeps doing FF every other year.

He will also be forever immortalize in an amazing Xbox game!

Riddick 3 was awesome!!! Hope that part 4 and 5 will come soon!! Want to see Furya!!

So happy he decided to do Chronicles of Riddick

Its so awesome how into the character Vin is. You don't see many actors these days who really love a role so much.

All of the riddick live action movies are so well done. In my opinion, Pitch Black and Riddick are the best. I can't decide which of the two is better. But chronicles is just a hair behind the others. Truly an underrated storyline.

I love these movies so much. So underrated

Great interview! Vin gave great responses, and I can't wait for this movie!

The Directors Cut of Chronicles of Riddick is actually pretty sweet, I'm more of a fan of Pitch Black and the newer Riddick though!

Can't wait to see it tomorrow on my b-day!

I NEED to see Furya and the Underverse someday... Riddick is too good to never see the finish. Like someone else said it's my favorite fictional universe to date when you include the games and the animated short. So much potential for development and such a badass universe in general. Infinite love and respect to Vin for turning down 2 Fast to do Chronicles. I saw Chronicles in theaters when it came out because I was already hooked from Escape from Butcher Bay coming out 10 days earlier :D

I love Vin Diesel, his passion for his movies and the way he made sacrifices and deals just to get the rights and make more are awesome.

nice interview. I liked actor's explanation of such a strong characters.

Awesome movie ! Bring on more

cant wait for this movie

A lot of peoples superhero's are batman, superman or even spiderman, But mine is Riddick.

loved the movies even the anime movie and both video games

Just got back from seeing this, if you are a fan of riddick you will not be disappointed. Great addition to the stories of him. Also box office performance should mean the 4th film will be huge!

such a good series

Funny how things that scared you as a kid, later becomes one of your favorite things as you get older. :D cant wait to see this.

Agreed. Says a lot about him as a person in terms of his motivations and character.

Vin Diesel is one of a handful of celebrities that I actually like , and I probably wouldn't even need one hand xD Eitherway this guy deserves respect !

Vin you are the best actor for Riddick! I cant wait to see this movie :P

Still waiting for more.

He gave up a 20 million dollar paycheck for 2 Fast, to star in Chronicles of Riddick for 50 grand? This man has my admiration.

I love Riddick!

DAMMIT Vin would have been absolutely THE BEST person EVER to play Bane

yea, i love riddick movies

Saw the chronicles in 2003 in theaters not expecting anything and i liked it. Along with the 2nd underworld it was the right timing.

Katee

Vin & Katee in the same movie hell yes im going to see that one hands down:-)

I love Chronicles of Riddick!

This movie was tight. Saw it tonight

This is a movie i will surely buy

I love this move it is a good to see

i love Vin, he's a fucking gamer nerd/geek himself, D&D player how weird is that. And yeh i remember when Chronicles was coming out not very many ppl knew oddly enough kinda pre internet boom. If ever there was warhammer40k/30k movie Vin should play Horus

Seen pitch black and chronicles of riddick like 1000 times

Vin is very informative person i like it

I hope the movie does well

Aw he rescued an alien puppy. How sweet. That is a wonderful theme.

I LOVE riddick movies

Starbuck! Oh how I've missed thee!

EPIC VOICE!

Goin balls deep! He does justice to this saga. Made him a fuckin bad ass.

Katee is so stunningly beautiful, my dream girl.

Hope this movie does well

Saw it last night. Much more Pitch Black than Chronicles. Though they do explain what happened after Chronicles. Hope they make another or two and go the Furya and the Underverse.

still waiting for Riddick 4

rofl. Vin is so enthusiastic...its adorable. XD

i fucking love Vin too!

no this one takes place a bit after the chronicles of riddick, and he fled to this planet ,because of things that happened when he was necromonger king, you can find some comics in here on youtube tha texplains what happanes between the last riddick movie and this one.

From Pitch Black, Riddick was an absolutely Great anti Hero character. Dark Character.

4:20 what the point of the magazine?

It's always fun to see guys like Vin Diesel do roleplaying, which it is if you think of it. People always see role playing people as geeks and then watch this movies like these. It's weird.

the fast saga?! lol and what a masterful saga.

Who’s here in 2018?

I hope they make a game about the movie in the style of Splinter Cell, but open world with the possibility of choosing places to go and perform missions.

Vin diesel is born to play character of Riddick

Amazing film. Pitch black was amazing but Riddick is the best yet.

Save the doggy Ridick!!! U are our hero!!!

She said 'DT' had her back - DT being what most people who work with David Twohy call him

He literally said exactly that in the interview

Save the puppy Riddick!

lol I am gonna look like Riddick before next year. Except I will probably weigh a little more. Well I am 6'3 Love Vin.

i liked the shit out of both. Watched Chronicles like 10 times, pitch black too ofc. :D

He saved a puppy!!

I'm still waiting for them to bring Fast and Riddick together. Call it: Fast and Furyan, where the Necromongers come to Earth and Riddick must defeat them with turbocharged cars.

This Riddick is after the 2 movie or before the first ? o.o

never mess with a man and his pooch

Especially when they are as perfectly shaped as hers

So did you guys like Pitch Black and The Chronicles Of Riddick

Second movie had more visual flair compared to pitchblack, but I still favor the first movie a little more.

Play the games.. They add to the story in a big way..

Yo I really need to speak to you Mr. Vin. Vin to Vin about this Riddick character and a few other things. Really like your work and producing.

Katee is soooooo beautiful. :-)

No, but if you watch the movie you get to see them :D

well.... the movie Riddickilously good

Katee sackhoff will never be hotter than in this movie

As flawed as Riddick was- he still oozed Honor and avoided Betrayal.

It doesnt matter that it took 9 years for this film since the last one It took sylvester stallone 20 years for john rambo

THIS MOVIE MISSED ONLY MARKETING !

After the second.

Didnt like chronicles, but pitch black was dope.

whoever thinks the 2 riddick movies are bad have no soul

Inb4 ball "Sack" jokes

katee sackhoff is a fox! sheeeet

well at least ur not the other people who are like oh chronicles suck so everyone should hate so yeah but yeah pitch black was dope as hell but i did really like chronicles

Does Dahl happen to make guns at all?

Well Riddick is trickier because it's not really suitable for a mainstream audience. The FF series has cars, action, babes in bikinis, comedy and it's PG-13. Perfect for the younger demographic. Riddick is a gritty R-rated sci-fi series that doesn't have that mass appeal. If the new film makes some money though, Universal would get behind it again, no doubt.

ok then.

so if something has millions of fans and makes millions of dollars its automatically unquestionably fantastic? like one direction and justin bieber? alice cooper made a follow up album to his WTMN album called welcome 2 my nightmare and its truly a masterpiece, and i bet it never sold half as much as miley cyrus's latest abomination to music.

but hes in 6 so he didn't give it up o.o
