Riddick 3
 

August 28, 2008


Suddenly Vin likes sequels. He's got "Fast and Furious" in the can, he's about to make a deal to star in "XXX 3" and now, he wants to dust off Riddick.

And on that topic is anyone else – besides Vin Diesel – interested in seeing another “Riddick” movie?

Whatever the case, there may be a second, maybe even third, sequel to “Pitch Black”, the brawny baldie tells MTV – which is surprising considering the last one didn’t even break even.

"David Twowy right now is writing the scripts. The only question is whether we take a page from the 'Lord of the Rings' guys and try to shoot the two chapters at the same time. There are two more in mind," he said of Riddick, the Furyan warrior first introduced in the 2000 film "Pitch Black." "'The Chronicles of Riddick' was presented as a three part trilogy that would answer 'Pitch Black' in the same way that 'Lord of the Rings' answered 'The Hobbit.'"

The over-confident comeback kid says he’s still crushing on the glasses-wearing underverser.

“Everyone knows I love the Riddick character and I’m always working on it,” Diesel asserted. “It just takes five years to make another one because David Twohy and I are so precious about it.”

I'd watch it...loved Pitch Black, but HATED Chronicles of Riddick.

I loved Pitch Black and thought Chronicles was alright. Escape From Butcher Bay however was a great videogame and a brilliant addition to the Riddick mythos while that Pitch Black anime was simply an ok toss in that added little to the story.

Pitch Black was awesome.Chronicles was alright,so I'd watch another Riddick film if it came out.

I actually liked chronicles for what it was. There was a lot of cool ass kicking.

I really loved both Pitch Black and Chronicles and had heard that they were going to make two more, but that was years ago. I'm glad to hear that they are serious about it and that it will happen somewhat soon.

I thought his character died and was replaced for XXX 2? I'd watch another Riddick movie, it should back away from fantasy and closer to sci-fi/horror like Pitch Black.

I thought both flicks were pretty good so I'd be down for a third and fourth installment.

Amen to that, it lost a lot of what made pitch black work. Chronicles was interesting, but kinda crap compared to the first one.


However, I loved the blade in the forehead at the ending :)
