It says it is in 1080/60fps+ on the box, but most scenes are only 720 and 30fps at best.

The DVD is HUGE! It's like a laserdisc

If you ever wondered what Starbuck from BSG's looks like just watching the movie.

It has a random shower scene in the beginning.

It also has Drax the destroyer in the film too.

riddick was ok, the beginning was more interesting and then it turned into a complete 1:1 identical clone of pitch black, which would have been ok but it just wasn't as good as PB the second time around.

That and it played the old "hero is so manly he can literally gently caress the lesbian straight" trope without any sense of irony or winking, which is just loving retarded and inexcusable.

I'm p sure you are not actually supposed to take Riddick (the character) completely seriously. He is too macho even for his own movies.

Even taking the character and the movie not-at-all-seriously it still portrays homosexuality in a completely erroneous light. That's not some :goonsay: about muzzle flashes or the physics of hoverbikes, that's a real-life social issue that is being portrayed as a "fixable" if enough retrograde masculinity is applied to it. There's no wink at the camera. There's no sense of ironic detachment. It's 100% awful. There are some old pulp conventions that are 100% best left in the past.
