>Does he ever actually do a single morally questionable thing across three movies?
He killed the good guy.
These guys are 100% correct in their belief.
What was their philosophy again? Haven't seen the movie since I was like 15.
The weak must fear the strong
You keep what you take from somebody you killed.
You keep what you sneed
Baffling how this film looks like it could've been made in the 80s. There's something so magical and otherworldly about some of its set designs. The rest is pure CGI dross.
I didn’t notice during the first watch, but when finds out riddick is still alive, he gets scared so shitless that he launches the armada early and dusts hundreds of his own people left on new mecca. Probably the only reason everyone was okay with vakko betraying him.
he even killed one of his soldiers for talking him back, how did you miss that
Laying out one subordinate in a fit of rage is a lot different than killing hundreds to save your own skin
It still shows your weak when you're supposed to be some god like King
>supposed to be the ultimate badass tough guy emperor who's transcended death
>scared shitless of a single dude and jobs almost instantly when he comes face-to-face with him
what a letdown.
Furyans were the one thing that could take them out and they were supposed to be dead or enslaved entirely, it's justified
? how did a race of Riddicks get enslaved/get genocided when a single riddick can basically solo the universe, makes no sense
Same way Saiyans got enslaved and genocided despite solo genociding planets themselves.
they got genocided by a guy stronger than them, the homiemongers are weaker than the Furyans
But they are more numerous and Riddick is basically a peak Furyan, like Goku was a peak Saiyan, so he just went after their emperor and used their rules against them.
A normal Furyan would have just died.
a normal Furyan would still be better than the normal Necromonger so the war would be in their favor
But there are more Necromongers and a normal Furyan would be weaker than the emperor of Necromongers.
How is that related to what I said?
the Emperor can't fight on all sides, the frick? Why would he even need an army if he can just win
>nihilist literal death cult who also believe in globalist population control on an interstellar level
They're not globalists though, they're egalitarian fanatical cultists. Helion Prime was globalist with many different types of people and religions and the Lord Marshall points out the reason the planet was so easy to conquer was because they were not unified. He literally tells them that diversity is their weakness.
>vid related
Riddick got stomped against the Lord Marshal, he got back stabbed just before he was about to kill Riddick then Falco intervened and failed to kill the Lord Marshall. Riddick just got lucky. Watch the movie homosexuals.
>literally invading other star systems to force people into their own ideology with the threat of destruction while saying their traditions and faiths are weak and don't fit the new world
Anon you fell for globalist subjugation propaganda because of aesthetic
t. middle eastern anon
>anon would abandon christ to worship death at a bald man's behest
He rapes Jack when they get into space
Nah, he is a good guy. Just tsundere to admit it.
Normalgays think an antihero is just a regular hero who's edgy like Batman or Wolverine
doesn't he steal some drinks in pitch black? literally the only thing i can think of
He murders people in the third movie
yeah, but they were all bad
t. Harry Tasker
heh
He murders all the bad people and lets all the good people survive.
Bounty hunters aren't people.
They killed his doggo what the frick did they think was gonna happen.
he was john wick before john wick, so fricking based
John Riddick
Just saying there comes a point where you have to ask yourself is this bounty worth dying for and they barreled past it at mach 5.
He has a lot of moments where a more standard hero would go out of their way to save someone and he just kinda lets them die, he also does the non-standard hero kills bad guys instead of incapacitates them thing. He's a decent guy overall, but his morals are a bit shakey.
>he also does the non-standard hero kills bad guys instead of incapacitates them thing.
THE HORROR
>>"This guy is such an evil murderer bro he's such a sociopath there's no telling what he's capable of"
>>he literally always does the most moralgay good guy thing possible, while being a grumpy b***h complaining about it
many sich cases
>when jesse owens was treated better in nazi germany than jim crowe america
libtards shocked
Why is he wearing a shirt that says "Ohio"?
Hitler was taking lesson on being evil from him
this was only because of hitler's love of BBC and meth
True this guy killed the most annoying homosexual of all time
He's the killer with a heart of gold, dude. Lighten up. Sheesh.
He is just sci fi Conan. Conan isn't evil, either.
Yeah, I was always put off by that shit.
Even more because I played first gow before watching pb, so I had vivid memory of real anti hero in action.
Don't compare Conan to that homosexual, Conan doesn't run around screaming: ,,boo, I'm so bad, I;m immoral, hey, did you all shat your pants yet''?
I don't recall that line, mind posting a webm of it?
That's all he is saying. He spends half of every movie he is in lecturing everybody around about his lack of compassion, how he only cares about his ass, how he wouldn't hesitate to leave them all to die, blah blah blah.
He never does anything like that, but loves to brag about it for some reason.
I don't know what scene are you refering, but I remember that he is superstitious.
Nobody is perfect.
>some reason.
Anon, said reason has been repeatedly stated to be because he kept putting his ass into the fire for people who'd either run away as he risked his life for them or outright backstabbed him.
He never does abandon people because of the sacrifice by someone else at the end of the first movie and in that movie, he does essentially just leave everyone behind a few times.
You really are an idiot. What are you, 20? Why do dumbshit zoomers think they understand anything when they very clearly lack the physical *ability* to understand the motivations and thoughts of simple fictional characters, let alone real people.
Conan ran away crying and screaming after seeing a snake with a human face.
oh no it's moronic
somebody actually connected the dots, arnie is every action heros model and to mimic him was and still is the goal, youd think more here would recognize this.
fck captchas gfsdgf
Going by current standards, it makes sense that normal humans would be that openly hostile to a decent moral person.
What Morals do you believe in?
He’s space Snake Plissken. He’s actually more just than the corrupt system, and that’s what makes him an outlaw - his utter contempt for “civilized” society.
>Does he ever actually do a single morally questionable thing across three movies?
Morality never enters the question for him and as such his actions shouldn't and can't be judged by that criteria.
Riddick does only what he wants and never a thing more, and his wants are wholly dictated by two things: first and foremost, his drive to survive, and second, to protect the exceedingly few things in existence which he likes/respects, which is essentially limited to Fry, Jack/Kyra, Imam (his family and those in his care, by extension), and his alien dog, in the totality of the franchise, which a few stragglers. Every single choice and decision he makes is selfish, even when he risks his own well-being. He doesn't kill everyone he could, but he also kills people he doesn't necessarily need to. When he avenges Imam, it was cold-blooded, premeditated murder. Sure, the Necromonger deserved it but it wasn't out of any sense of justice or anything even approaching it. He was just pissed.
Any "good" that Riddick does is utterly and perfectly incidental. He's a man of tyrannical integrity but his codes are all, again, wholly absent of any sense of justice, right or wrong, etc.
As someone else said,
>He’s space Snake Plissken. He’s actually more just than the corrupt system, and that’s what makes him an outlaw - his utter contempt for “civilized” society.
This very much lines up. Riddick is an animal but one, as I said, of tyrannical integrity. His personal codes are just, but he is still a stone-cold killer with little regard for life, and statistically, zero regard for his entire species.
>being a murderer means being mean to women
Holy shit your brain is a fricking mound of medical waste.
>Riddick does only what he wants and never a thing more,
The same is true of all humans.
no in pitch black he's a convicted murderer and he traps the entire crew in that cave before eventually being convinced by the chick to go back for them in what I guess was supposed to be a moral crisis
That's something Snake Plissken would do.
nah snake is only apathetic not antagonistic
I could see Snake doing that if he’d done the mental arithmetic and decided that *he* might make it, but trying to bring others would just end up getting them all killed.
this
he rapes but he saves
What if she asked him to go balls deep in her, sweet like?
That's why I like the first movie. In the end it's like they escape but I mean... he could do anything he wants when the movie is over.
First priority is survival
I used to have this problem with video games sometimes where my moral OCD would prevent me from playing a bad guy even though it's all fake. Makes it kinda hard to enjoy role playing!
I never liked rpgs with morality systems because I'd always just go full good options
weak coward
I like having the option to be evil just so I can choose to be good, feels better.
> Be evil unpredictable murderer
> Show incredible restraint throughout the film and treats women with upmost respect.
>the film and treats women with upmost respect.
What about Dahl?
>treats women with upmost respect.
It's "utmost", you zoomer human trash.
Touched my first boob during this movie. Would recommend.
The underlying theme is that his reputation is worse than his actual character and that in reality he isn't worse than the bounty hunters or prison guards.
It's not exactly subtle.
>Does he ever actually do a single morally questionable thing across three movies?
He hates God
At the end of Pitch Black Riddick lets the main character of the movie die (people keep forgetting Riddick wasn't the MC in the first movie).
That’s not really accurate. Caroline goes back to save him and ends up dying. His shitty life had made him believe that there really weren’t any good people. At all. In Caroline, he found one and it changed him. The man he’d been died on that planet. He’s still a far cry from an altruist, but he no longer believes that everyone he runs across is necessarily a complete piece of shit.
The first film, he was Chaotic neutral. It's only in the shitty sequel where they tried to turn him into a superhero.
The movie goes out of its way to tell you his reputation isn't accurate and he's mostly a guy who's desperate to survive and was surrounded by violent pieces of shit his whole life.
The first movie literally end with somebody sacrificing themselves for him, which is directly shown to soften him up considerably.
Not only does the Pitch Black show us that Riddick, the criminal is more honorable than used give him credit for, it shows us that Johns the lawbringer is much worse than you'd expect
These.
He's not evil, just manipulative. His character changed a little from the first film, where he was more like a straight up criminal and you didn't know if there was some good there or if he was a total psycho.
To answer directly: He steals the art dealer's wine.
OP learns about propaganda
imma give you your (you) you dying for so you can go back to where you belong
its almost like some rumors are fake and gay
Authorities
>this monster is the worst because he kills us for trying to make him lick the boot
He tries to ditch everyone in the first one and only doesn’t out of curiosity
Some movies like those 3? I could use some cool action right now.
They're extremely unique in this day and age, especially being space opera science fantasy stuff. Sadly the closest approximation, and this is by a WIDE margin, is John Carter. You have to go back to some 80s fantasy and sci-fi for more.
Well, 2 is the space opera science fantasy stuff (and I wish they'd make more of it).
1 and 3 are literally just "dude kills monsters in the desert/Aliens Lite". And I love all three of them, but they definitely go back in forth in what exactly they're trying to sell. Absolutely would love for him to hurry up and make 4 while he's still able and bring back the space epic shit.
I hate Chronicles and 'Necromungas' is a stupid name.
2 is dogshit but the villain is 10/10. He carries that movie.
I mean if your only interaction with Riddick was getting stabbed by him, you'd probably think he was a pretty evil dude.
>daughter-wife is killed uncerimonously in the second movie
Why tho? It wasn't even the same actress
did he really rape or are anons memeing on me rn? Haven't seen the movies in years
Memeing
And here you are b***hing about it with your b***hbreasts and tears in your eyes lmao
good flicks, love 'em
You're looking at it through the wrong lens. Yeah, he does good guy big bro stuff when it suits him. It isn't that he doesn't do heroic things. He also brutally slaughters dozens/hundreds of people. We see him do this. The problem is, you abstract it away as just "that's what movie heroes do, they kill da bad guys" and aren't bothered by it, but everyone else in his universe is like "jesus christ you just killed someone by cutting off his head with a knife".
Makes sense when you view it through the eyes of the characters, but zoomers can't do that.
Nobody ever says that hes murdered innocent people. Only that hes a well-known killer. He's likely killed alot of people in self defense and earned a reputation. Now mercs and authority figures exaggerate claims about him for their own benefit.
Chronicles is such a weird movie. Because like, all its concepts/aesthetic feel ripped from other places in sci-fi. And the heavy sci fi aspects begin to feel weird when compared to the grounded feeling of Pitch Black. Watching them back to back has a lot of whiplash. I mean they have Elementals with Judi Dench? Almost feels like Vin got some weird input there.
>feel ripped from other places in sci-fi
Ah, like every other sci fi movie ever made?
>actualllllly
Do you want me to get meta about your meta point?
>Ah, like all fiction
The ripped stuff in particular feels very out of place as compared to the first one. That was the point. It feels completely different.
There's no "actually" in my post.
You need to watch more films, you clearly aren't well acquainted with the "sci-fi" genre.
>There's no "actually" in my post.
>ACTUALLLLY you just haven't watched enough sci-fi!
I literally connected those two points together.
>And the heavy sci fi aspects begin to feel weird when compared to the grounded feeling of Pitch Black.
That's what this was about. But now you want to be the samegay because you got mad I called you out.
Not even reading that wall of pure shitpost meltdown redditmeme garbage.
Next time, don't say stupid things that betray your ignorance like "sci-fi is ripped off".
Face it. He blew you the frick out. inb4 troon rage
>that weak desperate embarrassing attempt
Ouch.
This is what happens when people say moronic things and can't take the L.
In after troon rage
kek
Did you know anon, that nothing is original?
>troon
confirmed
Why are you getting so butthurt about the ripped off part? Of course everything is a rip off in some respect. But that is such a redundant point, anon. It just doesn't feel new or original or connected to what Pitch Black set up.
You just seem angry, like you've loaded that term. When you jump into a thread with boring meta points to feel superior, you've already lost.
>hurr durr you're butthurt
That would be you, having it pointed out that he's not very familiar with the sci-fi genre.
If you were, you wouldn't be so confused as to why your complaints were blown apart that you're reduced to spamming walls of greentext and reddit memes. Simple as
You're not even using the "akshually" meme right, you're just pissy you said something dumb and got snapped back.
>ACTUALLLLYLY ALL SCI FI IS RIPPED OFF
You're a moronic homosexual. Simple as.
Try taking a breath and getting better acquainted with the sci-fi genre, anon. You might learn something, instead of just making a fool of yourself online.
>this same bait
>get publicly told
>"i-it's bait"
That's not even how bait works. Man, you get everything wrong. "Bait", "akshually", etc.
All cause your ego can't take the L and admit it needs to learn a thing or two about film history. What motives this pathology?
>That was the point. It feels completely different.
You made two points. One was that the two films are different, which is fine. The other was that the sci-fi feels "ripped off", which is moronic.
Saying sci fi is all ripped off is something everyone knows.
Making a foolish comment like "the sci-fi feels ripped off" is betraying that you know very little about sci-fi. It's a category error of complaint against the movie. Apparently, then, not everyone knows.
The "rip off" isn't the complaint. The tonal whiplash between the films is.
this
you can't watch this shit back to back, more grounded shit straight to space-gothic civilization ending villains
troony has no reading comprehension bruv
How do you know I'm trans?
Ok. That's why you spent 13 shitposts trying to defend calling it "ripped off" and saying next to nothing about the "tonal whiplash".
>why you
Wasn't even my post. You didn't read what was said. You sound autistic
>autistic
Adorable from a guy who said one stupid thing and now can't live it down so his ego drives him to keep spazzing out, embarrassing himself further.
Face it anon, you just aren't very well acquainted with the sci fi genre. You just need to watch more movies. Then you can come back and have a conversation with us and maybe know what you're talking about a little.
Anon, I get you're one of these "has to have the last word and win" homosexuals. But come on. The post was about the "lots of different stuff thrown into the sequel" that was what the rip off comment was about, How it conflicts with the first one. That's all. You jumped on board with your meta point because you want to feel clever even though what you said is something everyone knows.
All this "I'm so clever because I pointed out that sci fi movies rip each other off" and "watch more movies" stuff is pure cope from you. It is honestly embarassing at this point. You want to nitpick over one tiny thing and ignore the rest and then you also hypocritically turn around and act like everyone else is obsessed when that is you.
Add to the conversation about Riddick. Or carry on. We both know you'll probably carry on. You'll be here until the thread is archived, waiting, poised, to carry on and get the last word. We both know this.
>massive wall of text to try and defend the fact he foolishly called the movie "ripped off"
Not interested in your autistic ego-driven rants anymore. You said something dumb, refuse to own up to it, refuse to better yourself, refuse to acquaint yourself with the genre. You really are the worst kind of shitposter, you bring nothing to the table.
>Not interested
>He says
>While replying
>informing a person that you're done with their childish bullshit antics is the same as being "interested"
I'll congratulate you on saying something so incredibly childish and stupid that it pulled me into one more reply just to explain how childish and stupid you're acting. But thanks: this reveals what you are. You never had an "argument", you're just some troony-spamming shitposter.

Dude is a known nerd who plays DnD and he did help build F&F into a franchise. Wonder what would have happened if Chronicles of Riddick would have been successful? Because 2 is so weird of where to go to next given that 3 was so eh.
>Dude is a known nerd who plays DnD
>falling for PR bullshit
nah he is actually a pretty soft homosexual irl
>falling for PR bullshit
dude gains nothing from that, what would be the point
>Vin Diesel is a long time D&D player, since the early 80s, and has described his experience as "we were all drawn to the game because it allowed us to become these characters playing D&D was a training ground for our imaginations and an opportunity to explore our own identities".[1] According to Vin Diesel, he "played Dungeons and Dragons with Judi Dench and Karl Urban at nights after shooting".[2]
>Judi Dench
kek
Right..
>dude gains nothing from that, what would be the point
And what is he gaining?
Hello zoomzoom. This will be a difficult concept for you to understand, but back in "the day" there really was differentiation between human personalities and it meant something significant when a person engaged in certain non-mainstream, niche activities. Nowadays everything is so homogenized that the meaning is lost; D&D, for instance, is no longer a semi-underground cult fandom, it's just another major prostituted-out megacorp-owned IP, so it's understandable that you might have difficulty seeing the significance when Vin Diesel admitted to being a D&D player pre-homogenization.
tldr the world once wasn't so cynical as you see everything now
>Vin Diesel admitted to being a D&D player pre-homogenization.
Him saying that was the equivalent of coming out as trans today. So the zooms understand. Difference being you would get your ass kicked.
Go watch drunk vin diesel dancing to rihanna and tell me that isn't a nerd.
Riddick does have a touch of the OC DnD character. Especially in Chronicles.
It was a clear 5th element rip off.
i think you meant to say fantasy aspects.
>Riddick isn't just some random violent thug
>he's the savior of mankind
Vin went up his own arsehole and never came back.
He’s an outlaw with an nefarious reputation, that’s all.
In the first movie he was supposed to be a hardened criminal that grows a conscience.
In the second movie he's a savior of the entire universe.
In the third movie he's just some sort of unkillable terminator super ninja that also predicts what will happen in the future with 100% accuracy.
>In the third movie he's just some sort of unkillable terminator super ninja that also predicts what will happen in the future with 100% accuracy.
tbf the third one is just repeating the first so him knowing what will happen..
Man it is a shame that this franchise went no where. What would you have done differently to fix it? Chronicles flopped.
The only thing you could have done to make it not "flop" would have been to make it not a movie worth talking about and remembering. The world isn't kind to space opera, outside of one particular fat bloated corpse that overfills the niche. You either make the movie you want to see exist, or you make the bland accessible version to satisfy the investors. It's a recurring creative dilemma. Every once in a while someone takes the shot and makes something that can be intensely enjoyed by a core niche audience, at the expense of the general audiences.
Well, Pitch Black was a weird starting point to begin with and then there's the awkward mix of Cyberpunk narratives and aesthetic within a pure sci-fi setting, which isn't helped by Riddick being presented as someone we should already know despite him being quite different than in Pitch Black AND him being pretty mysterious in Pitch Black to begin with.
Also killing his morality pet was a shit idea.
The games were great, fixed his morality problem by turning him into frank castle in space. Riddick only works in that kind of setting, not a space adventurer. He needs to be at the very bottom of cast list while everyone else carries the movie. The movies have kino casting the problem is vin taking up all the fricking screen time.
Worth playing now?
I played Butcher Bay on original Xbox and it was fricking fantastic, loved that game. It was later replaced/superceded by Dark Athena, which is the "same game" with added content, but I've heard unsubstantiated rumors of people grumbling that it's not as good as the original. Don't know why or if it's true. But Dark Athena is way easier to get and play now.
Apparently I have Dark Athena on steam and I don't remember ever buying it. May as well give it a go.
So many other tie in games at the time were bad. Apparently Vin was involved in the production of these Riddick ones.
But then he also did this game which was going to have a movie but then the movie never happened.
Never played that, but Escape from Butcher Bay has long been referred to as a game that had no business being as good as it was, and "the only good movie license game".
The dark athena version of butcher bay has that remaster issue where they made the graphics and lightning nowhere near as good in butcher bay
It's still great, I replay through it every once in awhile. The hard shadows lighting holds up really well for the most part, combat is fluid and fun. I'm honestly surprised they didn't make more of them, but two is good. There aren't a lot of good prison focused games, Callisto Protocol got me excited about it and then the actual prison part or even prison looking levels is like the first 30 minutes.
At first you think its shit, then you're shanking Black folk in the dark. And once you get your eye hack abilities it goes from average to kino. I have no idea how they made such kino from vin's dogshit. The only bad part is vins voice acting, but its good though he rarely speaks. The developers knew exactly what they were doing Riddick is literally the bottom of the cast list and the kino voice actors carry the game x-zibit steals the show as a prison officer.
>The developers knew exactly what they were doing Riddick
ok lil bro w/e helps you cope with your inadequacy
Chronicles should have just been entirely different character to Pitch Black.
Should have stayed a comfy low budget sci fi.
I always forget they made two games. Which someone told me were decent but I never got around to playing
Should put Riddick into AI
Yes

Would be cool but I didn't even know there was a Riddick 2 and 3.
Pitch Black (1)
Chronicles of Riddick (2)
Riddick (3)
Then an animated film The Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury which connects (1) and (2).
Two good video games set before (1). Two motion comics also set before (1).
And this weird Sy-Fy Channel oddity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvtwP9MdPzQ
Oh okay, make a lot more sense like that.
Thanks for the info!
correction, one of the motion comics bridges (2) and (3) and features storyboard scenes that didn't make it into (3). The other one is a prequel set before (1)
troony, no one was defending "ripped off" they were saying that pointing out sci fi is ripped off, like you did, is fricking gay. You're the one obsessed with ripped off

Play butcher bay like a normal person and kill to your hearts content.
>>"This guy is such an evil murderer bro he's such a sociopath there's no telling what he's capable of"
Yes and who tells you that? Johns, who is not reliable.
If even an evil murderer sociopath treats people with respect, especially women, then what does it say about you?
People will reply to this post thinking it's bait or a genuine attack. People will get mad at this post.
Was Claudia Black hot?
He beat a guy half to death with a 3/4" wrench
>Today Johns, you get FRICKED.
>Does he ever actually do a single morally questionable thing across three movies?
In Escape From Butcher Bay, he regularly murders unarmed prisoners who aren't threatening him for fun, oh wait, I did that.
Pitch Black was so kino. The other Riddick movies, albeit good, didn't really capture the same atmosphere as the first one. The kind of late 90s-early 2000s b-tier shlock that's actually a gem in disguise. TCoR was basically fantasy and the 2013 film was a sort of blend in of the two.
I think I read while consuming some clickbait slop that the first movie wasn't supposed to be a part of the story of Riddick by the creator or something, which would explain why his character changed and why they needed to retell pitch black except with water monsters with the Chronicles Hero Riddick. I know Big Johns references little Johns but I don't think that's directly states anything beyond Riddick killing him. I could be a gay moron misremembering though so who knows.
The first movie was a low budget Aussie sci fi movie. The company that made it merged with universal.
Vin diesel got in with people because fast and furious was blowing up. He is a big nerd too. So they decided to try and make it a franchise. So you got a movie, games, animated show. Chronicles became a big space opera epic.
But it flopped. But vin has continued to push for it as a passion project hence why we got the third one and possibly a fourth.
Really was an attempt to create a franchise.
>But vin has continued to push for it as a passion project hence why we got the third one and possibly a fourth.
This is why I always will respect Vin for his works. Dude will literally produce a flick cause he knows nerds, and himself, would like it. Man made a film based on his D&D character ffs.
