Rewatched the Riddick trilogy. That is Pitch Black, Chronicles of Riddic, and Riddick.
I'm not a fan of Vin Diesel (those car racing movies are obnoxious as fuck) but I really like these movies.
Pitch Black is an obvious low budget - relatively low budget - but I think they did quite a good job.
Now CoR is riddickulous, that necromonger-furyan space fantasy is cringe as fuck, but I still like it, because of this. They obviously had a way larger budget (I think they had liek 4 times the money) but they still had that low budget mindset with that clumsy space epic nonsense, and this is kinda endearing. They obviously changed Riddick's background some, but we could say he just lied about himself a bit in Pitch Black. Tho I think my favourite part is the prison arc, when he "gets captured" and taken to the deep prison in that half burning half frozen hell of a planet. In fact I rewatched these three because I got remembered of this setting.

Fun.
Last one is Riddick. It largely ditches the necromongers form the movie, and sticks a bit closer to the first film. Really good stuff, tho I hate it when they have a chat via radio/comms on the ships and they have to stop and face the two vehicles to do it. That's just dumb. But the buildup is good, how he overcomes the adversities, how he initiates and executes his plan (which is his all along), toying with the mercs. The action is all right, better than the CoR.
I think the Pitch Black ranks first due to the original-ish idea, then Riddick is the second, although all in all might be better than PB, and the Chronicles comes last for the too much cringe.
I think games were made out of these.
