  • Riddick was very damn cool.  A lot better than Pitch Black (or XXX, for that matter).

  • Your favorite band sucks, and you have terrible taste in movies.

BTW, it's a sequel that five years after the first, not a prequel, as many people have said.</div>

Crazy plot full of holes, but who cares? Riddick kicks some ass (though he's kinda muted in this one) and that's all you need to care about....</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I actually liked Pitch Black. Wasn't spectacular, but still pretty good once or twice. XXX was the epitome of garbage, big-budget, formulaic crap.</div>

When my film professor showed that clip, everyone started laughing because once we knew something was up, it was easy to spot and realize how silly it looked.</div>
