I really liked this. It was a nice combination of the first two films. The first half being action-packed with Riddick facing off against the mercs. And the second half having Riddick and the mercs having to survive together against the creatures and betrayal. And Riddick was a bad-ass, as usual.

I don't know what everyone's beef was with the budget, either. Everything looked great, to me. I know it was filmed on a lower budget, but I had no complaints at all. Yeah, we didn't see the huge battleships and such that we saw in Chronicles of Riddick, but what we did see (creatures, merc ships, future-tech, etc.) all looked great.

I also really liked Chronicles of Riddick (a LOT). So I'm the opposite of most fans that preferred Pitch Black over Chronicles of Riddick (although I still like Pitch Black), so I don't know if that made a difference in my opinion of the film.

Did you ever watch Dark Fury?

I think between Pitch Black and Chronicles of Riddick, I preferred Chronicles a bit more. I think because it seemed like a larger story. In Pitch Black they are confined to a single area on one planet and are trying to escape. In Chronicles he's going all over the place being a bad ass.

I really need to pick up Riddick now.. dammit.

I went and saw the new RoboCop movie yesterday. It was actually quite good. Not better than the original ones, but it wasn't bad, not at all.

Yeah, and I'm really glad I rented it before I bought it. Only a half-hour? Really?! Was this supposed to be a pilot to some cartoon series that was never picked up, or something?

Not sure. I got in with the Riddick Collection on dvd. So I didn't really feel gyp'd on it. I think it was just supposed to be a short film bridging the gap between the two.

Watched something a bit different two days ago. Winter's Tale. Its in theatres right now and reminded me a bit of Cloud Atlas, without the huge story spanning thousands of years of course.

Or we could just get a "Star Wars is better than Star Trek" button but that's just my opinion

the empire wins in this movie.
how can you have a movie where the good guys don't win.
"No i am your father"
"I love you" "I Know"
and then you have HOTH with the ATAT. Amazing
sound track is flawless as well

I'd agree with you, but I hate being wrong.

Saw The Croods this weekend...  It's all right, seems to be copying How To Train Your Dragon in some parts.


Please check out the games I have for sale.

I have been sitting through Fairy Tail. I find it most enjoyable.
All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.

Anime wise, I watched The Wind Rises in theater.  A very quiet, reserved, anime, even coming from Miyazaki, but I enjoyed it.  Beautiful animation.

Started watching a new anime called Nobunagun.  Kind of your usual actiony, save the world from aliens, type of anime, but I thought the concept of the fighters being essentially the reincarnated versions of historical figures, with abilities that go with what they were known for, to be pretty cool.  It's on Crunchy Roll.
