I liked Pitch Black. Not in love with it, but worth watching most any time.
I REALLY like Chronicles. Loved the colors and the style of it. It made it fun to suspend my disbelief.

Richard B Riddick.
And I liked em all, Pitch Black was set on the arse end of the verse, and looked it, while Helion Prime was smack dab in the middle of civilization proper.
Select to view spoiler:
Some stuff... Dark Fury, the chicks strongman I highly suspect was a Furyan himself, his conduct and attitudes highly suggested it, and the voice acting in making him such a pompous ass was just downright great.
"told you that was comin"
Best Riddick line EVER.
Chronicles, I REALLY liked Aereon, she's like me, always got her own game in mind, same kind of outlook and philosophy.
Toombs - now, it's been mentioned Riddick has a military past... didja notice that Toombs is the only guy he COULD have killed, repeatedly, almost SHOULD have killed... and didn't ?
Two versions of his final fate exist, mind, one of which offers some chance at survival, as well.
But thing is, Riddick seems to have a history with the guy, and almost goes out of his way to not kill him, or at least not do it himself.
That comes off to me that they were originally army buddies, with Toombs getting into his current career from there, and Riddick taking a more criminal bent - just a theory, but it makes a lot of sense, doesn't it ?

I liked the anti-hero thing, been done to death, yet Riddick seemed very original.
Plus- there's a very Firefly-like-vibe I get from these movies, something real and used, fantastic and familiar...
