After watching some truly great films on the podcast, we decided to take things down a notch or five by delving into the Riddickverse.
We start by discussing the origins of the character in Pitch Black before moving into a breakdown of David Twohy's 2004 follow-up The Chronicles of Riddick. We ponder some of the issues of retconning a B-movie horror antihero into a "Lord of the Rings in space" chosen one trope.
As if that wasn't enough, we then move on to discuss the third film in the trilogy, 2013's Riddick, where Twohy and co. return to more familiar R-rated territory.
Mainly we talk about Vin Diesel's ego which, after all, is the real star of the show.
