SciFians, what's the poly wisdom on....

[BeBMan]

.....those two Riddick movies, Pitch Black and Chronicles of R. ?

Are they any good? I'm not exactly a fan of that vin diesel (sp?) guy, but I'm always looking out for scifi movies.

So are the movies worth watching, or should I not waste my valuable time with them?

poly wisdom = oxymoron








oh and B minus at best for both

[Zkribbler]

I say CoR.
Diesel is about the only thing worth watching in it.

Don't waste your time.

Better spent watching the shower scene in starship troopers

OK

Zkrib, what's CoR? /stupid Bebro

[Zkribbler]

Chronicles of Ridnick -- or however it was spelled.

I liked Pitch black, dunno why really. I saw it without having heard anything about it first. No hype.

CoR - meh. Silly.

Co-ed showers in high school.

They both are grade B sf films at best.
They have some entertainment value.

I personally liked the first one better, but many claim that the second one is better.

I wouldn't go out of my way to watch either film.

[Jon Miller]

I have not watched either, altohugh my mom gave me one as a gift

I liked Pitch Black better than The Chronicals one... the Chronicals one was fast,goofy, and confusing

[reds4ever]

I much prefered the first but that may be down to the fact (like Arrian) I had never heard of the film when I saw it on the TV listings so it was a very nice surprise.

Pitch black was better than CoR but I'd say they're both worth a look. I guess I'm not as jaded (as a movie watcher) as some here.

[reds4ever]

Yep, every film doesn't have to be 'killer', sometimes you just want to pass a couple of hours....
