the jury has been out on this one for like 20 years
is this guy cool or not?



like hes strong or fast or something but also hes also mostly blind (nobody else in this universe is blind, just him) and he also seems to be really cantankerous and cant get along with others





riddick is cool / pros:

- universal appeal (its a space movie)
- completely 100% hairless
- cant play dungeons and dragons when making science fiction movies
- cant do fast and furious when making science fiction movies


riddick is a loving idiot loser / cons

- captured like 3 times. in fact he gets captured every loving movie. idiot.
- he is the last of a dead race but then there are secret furians everywhere anyway (goku already did this)
- nobody watched these movies

Years ago I read a magazine and apperently Vin Diesel can actually do the 360 arm rotation/dislocation trick. It was the only place I ever heard that.

I've always wondered if that is what started 'Vin Diesel Facts'.

For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

More like Chronicles of MY DICK.

I like the series. He's strong, and is aware, hence staying alive, but also he's just a dude winging it, hence getting caught and hosed up a bunch.

Riddick is a dude who is good at winging things.

No.

Vin Diesel the actor is a humourless self aggrandizing nerd who turned an anti-hero into a giant Mary-Sue character who has to be the bestest, toughest, magicest badarse who survived the universes worst prison but is also a goodie who gets to kill people in tough ways because thats what he does whilst saving the world.

Pitch Black is good. gently caress everything* else Vin Diesel has a hand in.





*Except for the the bit in the Fast and the Furious movie where the Rock flexed his muscles so hard he broke his cast, and then fired a helicopter gun at Vin Diesel and Jason Statham fighting on a carpark with wrenches. That was cool.

I heard he once did a fart so loud an stinky that it startled a nearby cow. The cow then gave only sour milk for the rest of her days and had to be shot in the head.

Riddick films are better than Star Trek movies, so they are not total poo poo, but they are not cool either.
