The Mythology behind Chronicles will appeal to all that love the sci-fi/fantasy genre. Im grateful for the extended DVD, as a former hater [a D&D related 'psyche' thing] it gave me a new perspective into this hyper-sweet and spicy world. I believe that once the story continues and grows, it will be one of the great sci-fi films. [Vin, if you could produce a D&D film that would explain everything so these damn icky boys will finally let me play...I'd appreciate it:(]

Kassovitz co-wrote the screenplay and directed and still couldnt get it made the way he wanted? As a director, you know first hand the studio will slice n dice, the challenge being…the job requires that your shots and story can still hold up. I think it did fine, I wanted more mind you but hey..its good to want things. This man cant blame shift enough…should have handed it over to Vin. I loved the way he played this role, no doubt that it followed his experience with this particular film maker.

[...] It also doesn’t help that Fox didn’t pre-screen the movie officially to critics, which is always the telltale sign of a flop. Fox has already had a bad year at the movies, (they had the lowest box office take for Summer ‘08) and it doesn’t help that they’ve riled up fanboys over the whole Watchmen lawsuit.

I actually am happy that Vinny D is returning to his film roots. Those franchises are the only ones he’s good in and the only ones I really enjoy watching.

I know alot of people don’t like Chronicles of Riddick that much, but I loved it and can’t wait for more.

As for Fast and the Furious, I just saw the trailer yesterday for the 4th installment and I’m very excited for it because they’re bringing everyone back and tying it into the Tokyo Drift film.
