Necromongers (The Chronicles of Riddick Explored) 

If you say so.

@@thehusketeers4319 another ignorant fool

I think Hannibal lector lived by this way too much

General Grievous you’re confused, Hannibals motto was ‘You eat what you kill’.......yum yum.

Threshold! TAKE US TO THE THRESHOLD!!!!!!!!!

He couldn't take a shower, either

I've got this crick in my back, been to chiropractors, none of them told me what was going on, on top of that... IT ITCHES, I've had this itch for over 5 years!

The Mad Matt show I swear I've been blessed by Nurgle, I've had this strange stomach ache for over a month! I love Papa Nurgle.

No Filler Gaming Knight Pitch Black was a great beginning to the epic, Chronicles of Riddick had potential but lost some of its presence, Riddick was just a lazy rehash of Pitch Black

Yeah I can’t wait for another riddick movie!

No filler I agree one of the best sci-fi movies I enjoy them

@@brandenapexo604 well we hope the new movie and TV show will be good😂

I just rewatched Pitch Black and forgot it came out, almost, 20 years ago! Vin Diesel was so young. He’s over 50 now and making another Riddick movie!

Well if I remember right.. They had technology more advance then anything else. Surprise attacks and then destroy the entire planet of all life within minutes.

Preda Y. To be fair, multi planetary coalitions are not realistic at all. Keeping a big country together is hard enough without fracturing it. And this is not a tech or cultural problem, so it’s not going away so soon.

They weren't all that surprised. Remember in the movie the target planet could see the incoming ships. Looked like a comet. In the movie security on Helion Prime was on high alert looking for spies who were gathering intel for the impending invasion.

Pedro Henrique Porto I disagree. Coalitions with one clear goal (defense and survival in this case) are fairly effective. There is a huge difference between trying to unite far-flung and vastly different groups into a single cohesive empire and banding those same groups together to accomplish a goal while still allowing their autonomy.

Gobi Subramaniam It's 2am where I am. But, please know, that I'm gonna refute every bit of this tomorrow. You've used a few logical fallacies against my presupposition. We can definitely have this debate in a few hours, son.

The movie's tag line was: "all the power in the universe, can't stop destiny."

I hope they continue his journey to the underverse and meeting other elementals.

David Packer “it would be a shame if someone promoted him, holy full dead”

@@Dennis-gc9je Riddick did lol

simo supernova hah he sure did when he snapped that blade off in his skull

threshold! take us to the threshold!

So the universe is flat ?

And more games too though it will probably not gonna happen Shame, the games based on this series are great

@@thientuongnguyen5002 agreed. The 2 games(?) I recall being really well done for their time and were very highly rated on X-Play if I recall. That being said, I miss TechTV and G4 when they had stuff like Arena, X-Play, Screensavers (that became Attack of the Show). I'm more than a little mopey about it.

I quite enjoyed diesel bumming it on a desert rock

Riddick 3 is coming out

@@krazykuz13cmc Riddick 3 already released.. Pitch Black was Riddick 1.

AdultToons right... cough cough *fast and the furious*

Those movies help fund this series. That's the only reason he's still doing them. Riddick is his baby, but F&F is the bank.

@@fighterck6241 you got it. I don't think he's done with this franchise.

What do you have against cars. Bet you ride in one everywhere.

Am still waiting for their dust up, considering now Vaako is a Lord Marshall

@@kaybigg Yeahp. I am too. Don't see it happening tho.

@@Damin-Danger-Ledford Why not?? Karl Urban is still making action flicks and Vin Diesel is alive in a dead franchise about vehicles.. At the end of Riddick, we saw the Furyan looking directly at the Underverse where Lord Marshall Vaako was...

@@kaybigg Not sure. I just have that feeling.

@@Damin-Danger-Ledford It would be disappointing in a way, but I hope for a good story...

Thanks Panda!

Dietdragon Your* Sorry.

Jacky Chang no worries bro I was and still am quite high

Haha Thanks DietDragon :)

@Crowley King of Hell, actually its good intentions

Religion. Religion never changes.

@@redgeneral5792 the problem is people not religion. If Atheist gained enough numbers they would also begin to target religious people

You're welcome dude!

Eric Maldonado same......well it's 2:36 am rn and i came home at 12.......😂

They had like no budget for the 3rd one so they had to do that. 2nd ridiculous was $$ but made no money and lost a lot of money so studios didn’t want to risk it. It’s a wonder it was made at all, the 3rd one.

sure mate, I'll add it to the list :)

Nice, thanks mate.:D Also I've asked this before but don't remember getting a reply, would you consider possibly doing something on the Pandora Virus from the game 'Phoenix Point'? Probably when it actually comes out, though a theory video on what you think it is based on what we know so far could be interesting too.

Yeh mate i'll add it to the list, but if its not out yet, not much I can do till then :)

Fair enough, there are a fair few short stories on the virus with info on what sort of effects it has on people and creatures, as well as looks into its history and stuff. Thanks BTW.:)

I'll look into it Deklin, and thanks again!

Thanks DarkBlade, and I agree with you about the other two films :)

Actually, there are in total 4 chapters. Pitch Black, Dark Fury, The Chronicles of Riddick and Riddick. Maybe you didn't know about Dark Fury because it is animated. Personally i liked it. It explains a couple things about the second feature film.

It’s criminally underrated and I absolutely love it.

William Julien Nkoghe Olympio soon, there will be 5. The script for Riddick 4: Furia has been finished. It’s supposed to be a prequel to Pitch Black, showing the fall of Furya. I just hope that the film will be put into production soon.

Aviaz X Nope, it's the bike pumps.

hes the terminator or film lore videos. 120 year life span on primary cell, they only sleep to appear more human.

Yeh it was really well done! I've got the locust already on the list, but I'll add the Lambent threat now! Thanks Dais :)

Thanks mate!

OI DON'T LISTEN TO DIS GIT. YOUSZE HUMIES NEED TA DO A VIDEO ON DA ORKS!

Lord Commissar Yarrick I agree commissar

@@chrisg5219 they are fungi. next...

Yeah the species that developed stasis fields before gene therapy

No its not based on a book, but there was a novelisation done on the chronicles of riddick filling in some blanks

It´s not based on book or comics or anything. It´s one of very rare purely original movies with original characters.

@@filmcomicsexplained the novelization also ads in some extra details such as about the lordcmarshall and I think some added backstory for tombs explaing that before he was. A metric he was once a slam security guard

bert tila is there enough information on them? 😕

bert tila I said that same thing on his newer video about the Mud Demons.

Sean Wilson There actually is tons of info on the Furions.

@@Hellheart fanfic too

You need to watch Pitch Black!! Its what kick-started the saga. CGI is a bit dated at times but for a low-budget SCI-fi action flick released in 2000 its pretty solid. Its also the film that put Vin Diesel on the map, as he did fast and the furious a year later :)

@@filmcomicsexplained and you need to watch dark fury cuz you keep calling it a trilogy.

I can't believe that I've already seen this video 5 years ago. Still couldn't remember the Riddick lore. Probably means I should find where to watch them all!

Death masks I guess.

Tbf, they're architecture/ art is fairly creepy, especially those faces

Those faces indicate sorrow, pain and desolation..

Riddick should make part 4 5 6 7

Honestly, if they didn't have their fleet tech I don't think they'd be viable at all. Otherwise a great portion of their army uses melee weapons which 'shouldn't' be effective. It sounds like most of their warfare relies heavily on the blitzkrieg idea, and blitzkrieg relies on faster equipment and something strong enough to disable or destroy equipment. They'd make for a great end game enemy in say Stellaris, but their early game seems like it would be very poor. I love the premise for them though, just trying to think from that research standpoint and knowing most of the games don't give much in the way of starting tech advantages if anything. Definitely agree their economy should probably be awful and based on looting. They're sort of like space vikings down to Valhalla.

Ooo! Someone take notes and make a mod! :3 I was recently informed that they are like a new species in Endless space 2 that are predominantly on massive starships, 'harvesting' sentient species as a resource, in a similar vein as the Necros. :) but apparently are overpowered and no one likes other people playing them, my informant became particularly... passionate when describing how they are used in multiplayer. And for their penchant for close-combat, I think how it's so effective is due to how, in the setting at least, how unconventionally aggressive it is, where there is only the most basic of battle plans, and they swarm the field of battle in such a way modern forces won't be able to effectively repel, especially given their lack of pain and fear. Plus, they could have effective armor, which explains why their own weapons may be gravity based, as it would effectively be a blunt weapon against their armor where other methods of firearms is focused more on par with an arrow or spear speed and penetration focused.

Be a fun end game crisis for Stellaris ;)

Wasn't Zuul the minion of Gozer?

The Snuggler Zuul from Sword of the Stars. They’re kinda like a race of enslaving psychic, malevolent opossums where the females are the size of bears, the males are devious mastermind headed SOBs and all the while able to pump out kids at a terrifying rate and having been artificially created by the setting’s mysterious big baddies.

Indeed!

I think the director wanted to explain more of it in the next movie(s) which still were not made. :-(

thanks. Its on the list already :)

\(•w•)/ YAY

You're*

awesome!

Yes mate its on the list :)

Awesome, thank you!

Great suggestions Kamron! I'll add these to the list now, thanks :)

FilmComicsExplained Nice! I think you'll really love the lore the world offers can't wait :)

There is no teleportation of any kind whatsiever by anyone in the movie.

Three movies, an animation as well. and a novelisation of the chronicles of riddick which fills in some gaps, but is also slightly different to the theatrical cut of the film :)

Yeh Vivir! Its on the list, thank you :)
