Furya? Seems a little late to try to ride the Furiosa hype, but I'm always down for more Riddick.
- To be fair, the Furya sequel was planned long before Fury Road was even out. But Fast and Furious was in full swing, so it sat on the back burner forever.
  
  That makes me Furyas.
  
  Also to be fair, the Chronicles of Riddick named Riddick's home planet Furya before either new Mad Max movie was even being written.
  
  I had no idea! That's pretty interesting, and also slightly annoying since I'd much rather have more Riddick instead of Fast and Furious 25 through 89: This Time It's Even More Furiouser™.
The only good movies were the first two, that last one was straight assssss
- There was a third movie? Huh, TIL
  
  It's just called "Riddick" and it's real fuckin' boring.
So far, nothing beats or even compares to Pitch Black. Dark Fury does a solid to empower the lore, however.
- Pitch Black is on a different plane than Riddick films IMHO. I don't know anything about the intents of the production, but Pitch Black is just great standalone sci fi. Riddick movies felt like universe-dependent comic book movies always do, which is to say, different than the typical standalone sci fi.
  
  That's a fair assessment. With that being said, The Chronicles of Riddick is the most fun out of all of them.
Good or bad, I'm always down for more Riddick, those polished eyes are so shway.
