Same. Also have you seen the directors cut for Riddick adds more Myth to the story and you find out Vako is honorable and not a liar, aside from trying to kill the Lord Marshal lol
Which is awesome. I remember when the movie came out and it was a different take on aliens and the heros. I'm glad they made the third one because the second wasn't up to par.
Yeah it was. I remember working at Blockbuster when Pitch Black came out on home video and we couldn’t keep it in stock. It was this unknown movie and I was just shocked at how customers responded to it. This was one of the rare instances where I watched something purely on how popular the rental was. It was the definition of a sleeper hit.
Not many movies I can say this about, but all three of these movies I can watch over and over and over. What I love about them is that even thought its the future, they don't make the fact that its the future feel like the leading star. Riddick is a great character who never ceases to surprise you, keep you on the edge of your seat, and keep you entertained for the entire movie. Can't wait for the fourth!
If Steven Spielberg didn't notice him in Multi-Facial, he wouldn't be in Saving Private Ryan. If David Twohy didin't recognize him in Saving Private Ryan, we wouldn't have Pitch Black and Riddick we know would have never been born. So thank you Steven for starting the chain of events.
The entire series has that feel of grunge and fantasy that reminds me of the fifth element. It alludes to having more history than it shows and that's what makes people soo excited to see more
Chronicles of Riddick is still my favorite of the three so far. Such a a perfect mix of sci Fi and high fantasy and badass action. Man I love that movie. Time to rewatch it again!
The way it ends is great too. Him sitting on the throne, just exhausted. Wasn't even thinking of the repercussions of killing the leader of the necromongers, he just had to kill him. Then they all kneel down to him and the shot pans out. Was sickkk Would love to see him forcing his army to clean up the mess they made all through the galaxy and help people rebuild their destroyed planets and shit lmao
The idea of the eyes shine I envisioned was that Furia is a dark planet either by setting or to coincide with Riddicks abilities it’s heavily forested to the point of blocking out most natural light, or the Furians live mostly underground. I also had the idea that Furians have a nicotatating membrane that is used when exposed to normal light situations but it’s a skill taught to the younger Furians at a certain age and Riddick being a infant when the genocide of his people happened he was never taught how to utilize it. Where as on his home world there were only a few places that were bright enough to need it.
yeah ... no if he had that nictating membrane he would've figured it out already plus I think it's more of a reflex than anything (kinda your irises retract and expand with light variations) edit: also Escape from Butcher Bay made it clear it is not that
Oddly enough it's the one sci-fi franchise that you can't find a lot of lore on, there are no dedicated UA-cam channels as far as I know for instance. I would know I've looked at some point but that was probably a year or two ago.
@@tektrixter *given the predators weaponry in the hands of Riddick that would be interesting but seeing the predators reaction to his techniques would be more impressive*
Wait, what happened to getting thrown in a slam where they say you'll never see the light again, finding a doctor, and for 20 menthol kools getting him to do a surgical shine-job on your eyes? That part of Riddick's story I always found important and insightful regarding his character, and illustrates his will to survive better than the struggle the movies show us because it is formative and foundational lore. He's already Billy Badass by the movies.
I always figured he told a cool story to a kid to give them a sense of wonder. He probably never thought she would go looking for a doctor to perform the "surgery." I always just figured he was actually born with them so I didn't even know it was a retcon.
@Nick K it could have been that. Though, when Kiera and Riddick are reunited on Crematoria, she states that she couldn't find a doctor, even for 20 menthol kools, so it seems like a retcon to me. Honestly I shouldn't be this invested in it
@Tyrell Thiel She believed the lie he told when she was a kid. That just seemed like the natural progression of things to me. Add on the big cats at the prison that have naturally occurring shine to their eyes and it had me thinking those cats must be from Furya.
The thing is. The character of Riddick in the first film was more raw. By the time the next 2 films came out it was strange. I think it's the universe he lives in. It isn't flushed out enough to really give Riddick a voice. And I think the idea of him having surgery for his eyes is cooler than him being born like that.
In CoR, the Fire Beast in the prison there is a nod to the surgery. It has the same eyes as him. Kind of, "if he got the surgery, it would be a transplant from this animal" kind of thing.
I always liked the idea that when mankind went to space they branched off into separate species from having to evolve on different planets. They need to flesh out the universe a little more. More planets and different offshoots of humanity
I forget where I read it, but the surgery (supposedly) is akin to cataract removal, where they slice the top layer of the outer cornea and inject a highly reflective substance behind his pupils. I could be wrong, it's been a long time since I've done any kind of research on riddick
6:26 CORRECTION ! Riddick always had that ability it was not surgically added. Though he believes that the shaman gave it to him through surgical modification it was not the case. He always had them but a some form of telepathic connection with the female furian who also gave him the mark of furia is the same thing that activated the furian eye trait. The shaman simply had a form of telepathic connection that allowed the early connection. It’s complicated but no the eyes aren’t a surgical modification despite what riddick thinks.
Hey anyone in the comment section: I got a feeling that Vin Diesel would make for a great successor for Kevin Conroy as Batman’s voice. Just imagine Batman with the voice of Riddick, and y’all know what I’m talking about.
@@harlanotto8247: I said ‘successor’ not ‘replacement.’ Kevin Conroy will forever be LEGENDARY, but his gone now, and someone needs to keep immortalizing the Batman, and I believe Vin Diesel has the potential to live up to the name.
Fun fact: all humans have the ability to see in inferred however there’s a “film” in the eyes that prevents it. His surgery was likely just the removal of said film.
Man I've been nutty for the Riddick story ever since Pitch Black landed. I've always searched out any & everything I can about Riddick. That'll be cool if Riddick & Doll end up having a kid. That was the promise by the ass grab by Doll. 🤣
I can't wait for another Riddick move . 🥰 Riddick fighting for his existence and his freedom and goes through fire and water for his friends with life as a stake something you would do for those who love you . After all, Riddick is only doing what some of us would do in his situation😊. love Riddick movies 😊
Another fun fact for ya, Riddick actually is a unlockable, playable character in the game Fallout: Tactics. He's a random encounter that, if he survives, you can add to your squad afterwards.
I always assumed his eyes were blind but gave him the thermal vision due to it and i thought he enhanced his hearing. Just goes to show that even though i watched movies, I didnt truly understamd it back when i was younger. Thank you for correcting me.
I love chronicles. I'll watch it whenever it's on TV. I have the directors cut DVD that's got a few extra scenes but one in particular stands out. Made me obsessed with Thandie Newton
If you played the game 'Escape from Butcher Bay' the answer is provided there for Riddicks eye shine. This is Canon as Vin Diesel was heavily involved in the project. Riddick manages to get thrown into 'The Pit' where cannibalistic inmates struggle to survive. Also down there was a doctor. The doc performs the operation for favours. This augmentation later allows Riddick to make his escape through the mines which are pitch black (pardon the pun). There you go
@@wiseguy01 Then explain why in the second Riddick film the other of his people who had been converted into a Necromonger (the one that got crisped in the sun) did not have eyeshine? I must disagree because the game is Canon. Riddick had the operation performed in the prison Buthers Bay. Vin Diesel & many others involved in Pitch Black were involved in the games design. Vin Diesel even did all the voice overs for the Riddick avatar. If you are a Riddick fan suggest you play it. But you would need an older console.
@@damiensteiner9919 eyeshine is described as a genetic trait exclusively inherited by Alpha Furyans like Riddick, whom is also stronger than the others. While all Furyans possess peak human physiology, the Alphas are known to be damn near, if not outright, superhuman. Not all Furyans possess this genetic trait. The game is canon but the films retconned the games as Jack points out nothing he told her about the prison was true when it came to the eyeshine. In the game we never see Riddick get his eyeshine surgery as he described it. This video even mentioned it. All the surgeon did was stitch up his wound. Riddick who knew NOTHING of his Furyan heritage simply attributed it to the surgeon as an explanation. He was wrong. Vaako even tells Riddick he fought a Furyan during the genocide that possessed the same eyes as him, further proving it is a natural trait. Also I own the games and the movies since I was a teenager.
I've been sold on the mythos of Riddick and his mysterious upbringing since Pitch Black. I'm elated that the 4th movie is finally going through as well.
Riddick is still one of my favorite movie characters, I really enjoyed the story of Escape from Butcher Bay you get to find out how he got the shine job from the holy man in a triple max prison
It was requested as a viewer. I tell you my favorite Riddick movie. Ever since Chronicles of Riddick came out, I’ve been dying for more movies. Pitch black as my first. I can’t put one about another because I consider the story very flexible with substance and meaning. I’m watching pics black again for for the hype
He actually explains it to you in the movie if you pay attention. Kyra ask's him how she can get eyes like that. He explains to her that she has to get thrown in a slam for a long time, hopefully there will be a Doc in there that can shine your eyes. His eyes are not like that because he is Furian, his eyes are like that because he was locked up for so long he had a doc shine his eyes so that he can see in the dark better.
@@marilynman it's what happens in the game. no eye shine until you get it done. the game was also called chronicles of riddick and if my memory serves me well, was made in parrallel to the movie of the same name to serve as a prequel....it was made by vin diesels game studio and vin diesel was a producer on the film. it's an awful lot of effort to go to to make that non-canon
Haha I know( barely)a gal with that same name haha why i remember it idk ? ...she spelled it differently than Berry though haha, I always remembered thinking how odd it was spelled. Why? I remember it , and why u choose a name idk? why I remember Is unknown? haha. But yeah back to that haha , I saw 1 on cable tv haha, and loved it! honestly didn't know it was a series until now haha I should get out more I guess haha.
Love these flicks and can't wait for Furia. I have the triple feature Pitch Black, Chronicles of Riddick and Fury(animated). Great flicks action packed with its own lore.
This series is one of my favorite little sci fi guilty pleasures lol. My dad loves it too haha he watches it every time he flips through channels and watches it. He's even said shit like "if i get cancer and have to shave my head I'm gonna do it with a bowie knife and engine grease like Riddick" to freak out my mom hahah
The anime is HANDS DOWN the best one of the series tho. Although I have not seen the fourth all the way through but the monsters they fight in the anime Ontop of the o g battles they have fighting through a battalion of bad guys with guy teammates in our side is just dope af
I have a rough-draft story for a (RIDDICK) show series, but it needs work, I need to work with a writer to fix it up a bit, and I need to figure out how to pitch my series idea to networks. I hope allot to get a job with some entertainment company as a (Story-Idea Pitcher) & work with writers to bring my few stories ideas to life, by making them into shows, and have them shown on different entertainment networks.
They shine because he paid a doctor to shine them. Then the writer decided that it's not bad writing to keep retconning your own shit, so he implied they shone because Riddick was in some way connected to those dogs. Then he changed his mind again, and ALL Furyan's eyes shone, even though The Purifyer in the second movie was Furyan and his eyes never shone, and the woman who gave him the stupid palm print of death superpower in the ridiculous extended cut didn't have shiny eyes. So non-canon extensions have revised it yet again, by calling him an alpha furyan, suggesting that the strongest of their species can see in the dark, but the rest can't. Which is just stupid. What's also stupid is Vaako saying each furyan killed 30 Necromongers with their bare hands, yet Bautista makes a good fight of it just because wrestlers refuse to fight in movies unless they win or at least are tougher than all the other bad guys around them. As for being found in a licquor store trash bin...apparently Furya has those. Riddick was a human from Earth in Pitch Black. The movies are fun, but they'd be a lot better if the story wasn't being changed and contradicted at every turn.
He explained his eyes in the first goddamned film. If people failed to catch it, that's on them. Making like it's some sort of revelation or dislosing some major secret with this is asinine.
The second film made it seem like he lied though and everything he said was pretty questionable since he was pretty much screwing with everyone he talked with.
I agree@Gottfried- it seem like he was lying about his eyes though. That explanation he gave seemed like s***. Especially when she found that it wasn't possible.
Pitch Black made Riddick a legend. He was just a Earth born outlaw who is wanted and more would add to his legacy. But the Chronicles of Riddick gave him a origin as a alien from a dead world. No wonder that movie was a miss especially to the fans.
Of course he loves playing Riddick.. it's his table-top RP character from his D&D days. Who wouldn't love to make RL movies about their favorite TTRPG characters? :D
I can't wait for another Riddick. Loved the whole series and thankfully, still has the same actor to play the title role!! Yesss!!!!
Same. Also have you seen the directors cut for Riddick adds more Myth to the story and you find out Vako is honorable and not a liar, aside from trying to kill the Lord Marshal lol
He owns the rights to the role. He's been quoted as saying it's his favorite character
Wait fr? They're coming out with another Riddick!??!?
As long as they don't mess it up like they did blade
@@kailahsanner7098 No freaking way! I need to look into this holy hell...
Apparently, Pitch Black was supposed to be a one-off. When Riddick became popular, the writers had to create a universe and story for Riddick.
Which is awesome. I remember when the movie came out and it was a different take on aliens and the heros. I'm glad they made the third one because the second wasn't up to par.
Yeah it was. I remember working at Blockbuster when Pitch Black came out on home video and we couldn’t keep it in stock. It was this unknown movie and I was just shocked at how customers responded to it. This was one of the rare instances where I watched something purely on how popular the rental was.
It was the definition of a sleeper hit.
just like John wick and rambo
Pitch Black was so good I saw it in the movie theater 3 or 4 times
Pitch black was kind of riddick first movie
Not many movies I can say this about, but all three of these movies I can watch over and over and over. What I love about them is that even thought its the future, they don't make the fact that its the future feel like the leading star. Riddick is a great character who never ceases to surprise you, keep you on the edge of your seat, and keep you entertained for the entire movie. Can't wait for the fourth!
There’s another coming? When?
The 1st 2 movies pitch black and chronicles of Riddick r very underrated movies
If Steven Spielberg didn't notice him in Multi-Facial, he wouldn't be in Saving Private Ryan. If David Twohy didin't recognize him in Saving Private Ryan, we wouldn't have Pitch Black and Riddick we know would have never been born. So thank you Steven for starting the chain of events.
“Get a load of this guy, fish”
I prefer to thank Vin Diesel as he is the one who got noticed because he did Multi-Facial on his own.
The entire series has that feel of grunge and fantasy that reminds me of the fifth element. It alludes to having more history than it shows and that's what makes people soo excited to see more

I heavily agree!
That doesn't make sense as he met another Furian is the second film. His eyes didn't shine
@@doms.6701 perhaps because he was older and received the training as a toddler.
That is a great point. I'll go with this one.
yeah ... no
if he had that nictating membrane he would've figured it out already
plus I think it's more of a reflex than anything (kinda your irises retract and expand with light variations)
edit: also Escape from Butcher Bay made it clear it is not that
I’d love for a Riddick vs Alien vs Predator movie or comic someday. Plus the Riddick universe is an underrated sci fi series.
Oddly enough it's the one sci-fi franchise that you can't find a lot of lore on, there are no dedicated UA-cam channels as far as I know for instance. I would know I've looked at some point but that was probably a year or two ago.
I could see the Predators accepting Riddick to help with a xenomorph hunt.
@@tektrixter *given the predators weaponry in the hands of Riddick that would be interesting but seeing the predators reaction to his techniques would be more impressive*

My wife and I love the Riddick series. Can't wait for #4
Of all the content my favorite scene is the “looks clear.” 😂
Great chemistry between the actors and a fun way to break up a high octane scene.
I thought you said it was clear! No I said it looks clear . How does it look now? Looks clear

You mean different subspecies. They are all humans, but different supspecies of the humans.
Pitch black and butcher bay were so good.... The sequel movies were so bad.
I love the character of Riddick. I actually think it would make a great show
Why doesn't ANYONE count Dark Fury as part of the movies cause it was. That's where you meet Tombs and it carried over to Chronicles of Riddick.
I'd like to see that fight between Junner and Riddick in live action
Because most don’t know about it! and maybe because it was animated?
I remember seeing Pitch Black when I was a kid, and thinking I'd give anything to be able to see in the dark.
6:26 CORRECTION ! Riddick always had that ability it was not surgically added. Though he believes that the shaman gave it to him through surgical modification it was not the case.

Wrong
Where did this explanation come from?
there is no correction lmao the narrator clearly explains that in the video. Watch the video 1st then make a comment
The telepathic connection didn't happen until long after Riddick already had his eyeshine, so your timeline doesn't add up..
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 you're delusional AF!

Legit. It’s in the game lol

My dad loves it too haha he watches it every time he flips through channels and watches it. He's even said shit like "if i get cancer and have to shave my head I'm gonna do it with a bowie knife and engine grease like Riddick" to freak out my mom hahah
His video game on the xbox 360 was one of the best video games of all time.
Very excited to hear about the 4th movie, really enjoy the Riddick series
I'm ready for 4, been ready for years
sooooooo looking forward to the next film. awesome.
It's a fun franchise
I can't wait for Riddick 4, absolutely love every movie
The anime is HANDS DOWN the best one of the series tho. Although I have not seen the fourth all the way through but the monsters they fight in the anime Ontop of the o g battles they have fighting through a battalion of bad guys with guy teammates in our side is just dope af
Yes!!! Waiting for the next one.
Riddick's eyes were explained in the first movie, "Pitch Black".
best of the best .this film series deserves more .
I wonder how Riddick would stack up against a Predator
I wish Vin Diesel made more Riddick movies rather than the Fast and Furious movies
Hopefully we get to see his home planet in the new movie.
This series is awsome!!!
Interesting @MarvelousVideos, so Furyan are nothing more than enhanced Spartans from the Greek mythology.
Yawn
I always considered him as space Conan.
He is a Saiyan
Can you do a video on the anatomy of asgardians from the MCU?
Riddeckis a interesting and dynamic character and the movies have been nouthing but interesting and fantastic al
Ah yes, riddeckis, riddick's long lost brother
Very Great Films!💯
I have a rough-draft story for a (RIDDICK) show series, but it needs work, I need to work with a writer to fix it up a bit, and I need to figure out how to pitch my series idea to networks.
I hope allot to get a job with some entertainment company as a (Story-Idea Pitcher) & work with writers to bring my few stories ideas to life, by making them into shows, and have them shown on different entertainment networks.
Furya: This is what a planet and people would be if settled by ancient Spartans.
They shine because he paid a doctor to shine them. Then the writer decided that it's not bad writing to keep retconning your own shit, so he implied they shone because Riddick was in some way connected to those dogs. Then he changed his mind again, and ALL Furyan's eyes shone, even though The Purifyer in the second movie was Furyan and his eyes never shone, and the woman who gave him the stupid palm print of death superpower in the ridiculous extended cut didn't have shiny eyes. So non-canon extensions have revised it yet again, by calling him an alpha furyan, suggesting that the strongest of their species can see in the dark, but the rest can't. Which is just stupid.
What's also stupid is Vaako saying each furyan killed 30 Necromongers with their bare hands, yet Bautista makes a good fight of it just because wrestlers refuse to fight in movies unless they win or at least are tougher than all the other bad guys around them.
As for being found in a licquor store trash bin...apparently Furya has those. Riddick was a human from Earth in Pitch Black. The movies are fun, but they'd be a lot better if the story wasn't being changed and contradicted at every turn.
Loved the Riddick franchise, I hope they do a good job with the forth film👍✌
Kyra is pronounced "Kee-ra"
Pound-for-pound he's probably my favorite...Love Riddick, Love Vin
He explained his eyes in the first goddamned film. If people failed to catch it, that's on them. Making like it's some sort of revelation or dislosing some major secret with this is asinine.
The second film made it seem like he lied though and everything he said was pretty questionable since he was pretty much screwing with everyone he talked with.
I agree@Gottfried- it seem like he was lying about his eyes though. That explanation he gave seemed like s***. Especially when she found that it wasn't possible.
the first film is great, the second is near perfection, the third is a retred of the first, and the games, are actual perfection.
Man I loved the entire series lol
Great movies and stories about Riddick
I don't think Riddick feels pain like normal humans. Along with just about everything else he does.
Just hear me out Vin as Batman and all u hear is “I AM FAMILY” 😂😂😂
Pitch Black will always be the best movie of the franchise, but they are all great
Guess I gotta see it.
Or maybe I did 🤔
Loved Pitch Black
Chronicles not tht bad
Riddick returnt to formula i enjoyed it
Cant wait for the next !
Start at 1:40
Loved Pitch Black. And the others were good as well. I'm sure 4 will be just as enjoyable.
Other than the Incredible Hulk, The Mighty Riddick is one of my choices of Super Heros. I am looking forward to the 4th Riddick movie. 👍
When will there be another one!!!
I loved this series
Pitch Black made Riddick a legend. He was just a Earth born outlaw who is wanted and more would add to his legacy.
But the Chronicles of Riddick gave him a origin as a alien from a dead world. No wonder that movie was a miss especially to the fans.
Did he just say a movie about Furyia? Hell yeah man. Ive been waiting over 2 decades for this movie!!
I really like the Riddick series. And I even liked Vin in Saving Private Ryan.
Yeah it took me forever to realize that haha.
Love all the Riddick movies and even beat both games.
I was instantly hooked to RIDDICK 2
Of course he loves playing Riddick.. it's his table-top RP character from his D&D days. Who wouldn't love to make RL movies about their favorite TTRPG characters? :D
The Riddick games help tell a great story on some background on Riddick.
Chronicles of Riddick is the best one and my favorite movie of Vin
I remember playing riddick on the first Xbox as a kid, it was definitely ahead of its time.
yes riddick! my favorite movies
