why did it flop?
we could've had Riddick cinematic universe rivaling DUNC right now
>>
Change the title to
>RED DICK
or
>RID DICK ULOUS
and you'll be allowed back home, Timmy.

Michael Cane is going to starr in this slop ? Kek I guess not many people know that.
>>
I like the film but I can see some reasons for the flop.

>"Necromongers" sounds stupid
>Many people saw Vin as a bit of a joke and refused to take him as seriously as he seemed to take himself when playing Riddick
>The reveal that Riddick left the girl from the first film to get gang-raped on probably a daily basis on the prison planet would not have endeared the character to the women and white knights in the audience

IT's got some weird stuff like inexplicably having elementals which seem kind of random, but overall it's a very fun movie with some freat sets and costumes.

The first one was a low budget genre cult film that took influence from other space horror flicks and this tried to follow it up by borrowing from loads of things like Dune and going epic space opera mode, but the demand just wasn’t there for that. It’s very different in tone from the first film, like trying to follow up Alien with Lord of the Rings (not that any of these are as good as either of those, and they certainly didn’t have the budget to do the effects they wanted to do, which people slated at the time) which turned off a bunch of the actual fans, and it wasn’t interesting looking enough to lure in loads of people who weren’t already familiar with the first. Interesting move but flawed logically. Who’s it actually for? Vin Diesel, mostly. Typically it’s probably the most interesting of the three films just because it did go in a weird direction
>>
The second one was too ambitious for its time but great, same thing that happened to Matrix Reloaded. Diesel ruined everything by trying capture the tone of the first one again instead of doing like an insane gory third film to capture the horror audience. Now he’s too old and fat to play the character.
>>
Its a really good hard science movie.. I could care less about Vin, and besides fast 1, 2 fast, and Tokyo , iv always see that franchise as a joke . That being said Vin Desil is really good here and I re-watch it all the time
>>
Entire cast is kino as well.
>>
I wanted to see him be in power but that would take away the rough and tumble, swashbuckler appeal of the character.
>>
>>214409986
Necromongos blow dick
>>
>>214409986
It was simply too kino for the normie audience.
>>
>>214409986
Normalfags can't handle space opera.
>>
Katie Sackhoff titties in the third one were a real treat
>>
>>214409986
Vin Diesel stinks.
