With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.
SLIGHT SPOILERS!!! YOU WERE WARNED!
The whole Riddick story is pretty good, I must say...
Pitch Black was good, not the greatest, but a little cheesy...
CoR was good, not the greatest (but, I thought, better than Pitch Black), but a little cheesy...
The demo of the game (Escape from Butcher's Bay for Xbox) showed that the game might be pretty damn good... no Halo, but possibly a great one, methinks (especially the stealth involved... I mean, whats cooler than being able to just walk up behind a guy and snap his neck in first person? (don't call me sadistic... just a game)).
Haven't seen the cartoon (voice over by the great Vin Diesel)
Problems with CoR:
-The names (as Shiska pionted out).
-Could've been better without that damned elemental... I hate her so much! Made it even more cheesy!
-The best looking woman in the movie is not essential to the storyline, thus small part, thus gets killed :-(
-A little cheesy
-Weak ending (but I've seen worse.... hell, as long as its a better ending than Matrix: Revolutions, then I'll watch it)
Good things about it:
-Riddick is cool
-Hellboy is in it
-Those alien cats kick ass.
-Crematoria is a cool concept, looks cool, bad name.
-AWESOME futuristic cityscapes and CG scenes.
-Necromongers (although should've been actual aliens, rather than Human (and Humanoid)... I think alien races should look different, not basically all the same, go Star Wars, rather than Star Trek) were a pretty neat concept, despite the name... their weapons are cool.
-The dead, life-sensing little -blam!-es are a cool concept.
-Eomer (from Lord of the Rings) is in it.
-"I'll kill you with my teacup"
-Kira dies (don't get me wrong, Kira was cool... I just think its more interesting when a main character gets killed in the end).
Please note that I do not recall the names of the actors who play Eomer and Hellboy.
