Use of 'Marshal'

Surely the usage of 'Marshal' in the text is incorrect? My understanding is that 'Lord Marshal' is a title, not a reference to someone called Marshal who is a Lord. Hence sentences such as 'Suspicious of his abilites, Marshal has Riddick taken into his fortress ...' should be worded as 'Suspicious of his abilites, the Marshal has Riddick taken into his fortress ...' In fact, I think that '... the Lord Marshal ...' should probably be used as etiquette probably dictates that a full title be used. There are numerous instances of this.

Indeed. Fix it if you want. ♣ Klptyzm ^{Chat wit' me § Contributions} ♣ 02:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bounty

It's been awhile since I've seen this movie. In the plot description it says there's a "1.5 million bounty" placed on Riddick's head. 1.5 million what? Dollars? Some other form of future currency? Someone please clarify this. - SoSaysChappy (talk) 03:46, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

They are Universal Credits or UC's, that the bounty, this is explained in the DVD, with the extra material of the film.--201.247.28.25 (talk) 03:23, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually it's UD, as in Universal Denominations. Outlined in TCoR: Escape from Butcher Bay and the DVD if I recall right. And I hope this was asked from inclusion in the article. Which it probably doesn't need to be anyway. 144.96.26.32 (talk) 05:46, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The plot-section of an article only describes what´s actually in the film. As no one in the film mention any currency, it would be wrong to come up with a currency in the plot. But as "Universal Denominations" is mentioned in the extras of the DVD, it would be ok to mention it as some sort of trivia or background-information in other parts of the article. --93.135.62.224 (talk) 10:05, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dollars, Dinar, Rubels, doesn't matter. They could have said a 100,000 bounty then as we watch them quibble over 75K or 85K we would realize in context Riddick is a valuable prize.Attman68 (talk) 01:31, 27 September 2015 (UTC) Attman68[reply]

Science fiction?

There's no science in this; this is fantasy, in space. I suggest the genre be reconsidered. 110.184.186.68 (talk) 07:10, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There's no science in Star Wars either, but it's still sci-fi. Anyway, it's sci-fi/fantasy, because this movie was actually based heavily on Vin Diesel's D&D campaign setting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:4A:C203:40B0:91F1:785:B77:5934 (talk) 10:16, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It deals with space travel, futuristic technology, alien lifeforms and the paranormal. It's the epitome of science fiction. The fact that most of the subject matter is not scientifically sound is irrelevant, that's not what science fiction means. There is room for some suspension of disbelief. --92.238.158.191 (talk) 08:00, 27 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This movie isn't out to cure cancer, it's designed to provide you a great ride. Don't worry about the sunrise on Crematoria, the time-impact of so much lightspeed travel or why no one seems to poop. Suspend disbelief just enough to enjoy the story. --Attman68

Best moments

The best play belongs to Linus William Roache, that moment when he saves protagonist's life, leave the shelter and burns. The Roache play is realy vivid and realistic, sometimes we can think that he don't play, he live with this role, for example when he talks to Vaako about his doubts.

-:It's not an "opinion" that the drastic change of temperature on a planet's surface is plausible only if it doesn't have an atmosphere.

+== Science fiction? ==
-Sure, because all science fiction films deal with nothing but logic and reality.  It's a sci-fi film, and as Sci-Fi is wont to do, some logic is suspended.  Therefore, critiquing any logical inconsistency in such a film ''is'' subjective.  [[User:TotalTommyTerror|TotalTommyTerror]] 17:17, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

-this whole article (and the one at [[Pitch Black]] seem too long winded and detailed. do we really need to know every single thing down to crew man number two's shoe size? plus, some of the data seems opinionated. the article needs shortening. keep it short and sweet, with nothing beyond the relevant data, please. one more thing - tommyterror: logical fallacies are not a trademark of sci-fi films, as you would have it. they are simply the sign of bad script writing (which this particular film is well endowed with). a good script will have all the logical ties tied together in a sci-fi flick as much as in a historical drama. no need to be all high and mighty.

-Really? "bad script writing"? Then there are NO good scripts in Sci Fi, unless you can name one that does not have some type of faster than light travel (impossible), sounds of explosions in space (also impossible due to lack of atmosphere) etc. [[User:Elvigy|Elvigy]] 15:22, 22 July 2007 (UTC)elvigy

+"I would have gone another way."  "True of us all."  ---- Attman68
-To be honest, while I really like both Pitch Black and Chronicles, and want to see sequels, I find it hard to buy that they're set in the same universe... it's one thing to leap from the horror genre to the action/adventure genre - but going from Sci-Fi to Science Fantasy is a little bit hard to swallow...

-I didn't have a problem with it honestly, it's a big universe afterall. It seems perfectly plausible to me that you could have nocturnal aliens on the one planet in Pitch Black, and then some elemental humans / aliens on another planet. I mean if everything was the same from planet to planet, it would be a pretty boring universe. Star Wars and Star Trek are no different, their aliens vary greatly from movie to movie and planet to planet. [[User:Bilalc|Bilalc]] 04:43, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

-== The Final Word: Vaako or Riddick?==
-Ok, so which ending is going to be considered 'canon'? The Theatrical Cut, where Vaako says "You keep what you kill." Or the Director's Cut, where Riddick mutters it to himself? A few days ago, the director's cut ending was the one written - and when I last checked, it was the theatrical version... wouldn't it make sense to create a section that explains the differences between the director's and theatrical cuts? ([[User:195.92.168.167|195.92.168.167]] 22:10, 12 March 2006 (UTC))

-::The way I see it, extra stuff in the directors cut are like deleted scenes: interesting but not canon. I would say the Vaako line is the canon ending. [[User:TJ Spyke|TJ Spyke]] 12:14, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

-Is there a citation for Vin saying a sequel(s) was in the works?  I don't pretend to have my finger on the pulse, as I've never heard him say there was a sequel.

-== Thematic Elements ==
-I disagree with whoever wrote this. Sure, they were TRYING to make an astute observation, but that's mainly POV. In the latter movie, one can maybe give the reluctant hero arguement, but in Pitch Black Riddick is the first to arrive at that spaceship and he is perfectly capable of operating it on his own. He first attempts to leave the planet alone, then with.. the female lead. She convinces him to go back and save the others and he ends up almost sacrificing himself for the others.
-What happens then is that the female lead returns to help Riddick and finds him badly wounded, having survived an attack from multiple.. the alien thingys. From there she gets taken away beyond his conrol, he returns to the ship, avenges her death, and the movie ends. [[User:Dessydes|Dessydes]] 10:47, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

-Originally I had written the new article to a similar length as the original author, but with less detail, but i suppose it was still too much plot retelling, so I have left out alot of the indebth plot analysis this time.[[User:Bilalc|Bilalc]] 04:17, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

-:Appearently a grue is some kind of monster from a computer game. see: [[Grue (monster)]].

-==Series Article==
-I created [[The Chronicles of Riddick (series)]] a while ago to help keep down clutter on the film pages. Alot of the specific film's pages were getting cluttered with excess information on the locations and characters of the franchise. Now there is a page for the information that would be out of place elsewhere. However it still needs to be expanded quiet a bit. I put all I could remember from the franchise as a start, but I would really like anyone who edits these Riddick articles to add more. Things I think need more information are the planets in the series, the characters of the series, and the different races of the series. Any help would be apperciated.

-== Wonderful decorative detail ==
-I'm curious - who was actually responsible for the over-the-top decorative motifs of the sets and costumes in this film?  There's never just a lever or a telephone - there's an agonized bronze statue that rotates upward, or a writhing quasi-dead Thing hooked up to a vibrating bowl of water.  Even the most ordinary clothing is something spectacular, let alone that wild battle armor.  The decor adds a huge amount of implied action - for instance, the bronze statue of Riddick in Necromonger style in the ending credits implies that their cult lived on in some form - and by the time the film is over the impossible Necromongers feel as real as Rome, simply by virtue of the aesthetic gestalt they represent.  And I swear that if you stacked their five prettiest spaceships and landers against the top five contenders from all the rest of sci fi film combined they would have a fair chance to win.  Between this florid detail and a plot so elaborate it doesn't seem like it could fit into the movie, I think of this as one of the true classics - far superior to its predecessor.  Did the good critics really regard it so poorly?  Sites like Rotten Tomatoes offer too many opinions to go through all of them, but it boggles me to see people saying that the plot moves too fast and the universe is too strange - isn't that what a sci-fi/fantasy/art film like this is ''for''?
-P.S.  Was [[Rodney Matthews]] officially involved in the Crematoria landscape?  There was something very familiar about those leaning spires, but this movie takes that cold, static pattern from older Matthews art and brings it to life by putting it in the context of a 700-degree terminator line.  I doubt there was much science to the heat differences at that terminator line but there was a whole lot of art to it. [[User:Wnt|Wnt]] ([[User talk:Wnt|talk]]) 08:54, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
-== Who actually did the writing? ==
-I remember that the movie credited David Twohy as writer and director, but the Comingsoon reference says that Vin Diesel a) "went through many, many writers" and b) "wrote the storyline for all three movies".  Also, is there any relationship between the Necromongers and [[Necrons]]? [[User:Wnt|Wnt]] ([[User talk:Wnt|talk]]) 09:11, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
-== Whose fingerprint? ==
-Alright, I know that unless someone who actually ''made'' the film replies to this I'll probably never get an answer, but the opening Ultraviolet World 6 scene is a case of a world that bears the fingerprint of its creator in an exceptionally ''literal'' sense - so far as I can tell, the ridges Riddick is jumping between are actually based on the whorls of a real fingerprint.  But who was used as the model? [[User:Wnt|Wnt]] ([[User talk:Wnt|talk]]) 09:16, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
-:You're right. You'll never figure that out.  ♣ [[User:Klptyzm|<font color="red">'''Klptyzm'''</font>]]  <sup><font color="blue">[[User talk:Klptyzm|Chat wit' me]]</font>  <big>'''§'''</big>  <font color="blue">[[Special:Contributions/Klptyzm|Contributions]]</font></sup> ♣ 15:43, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
-== Cult ==
-i rekon it should be classed as cult film,seeing as how it has devoted fans and wasnt well recieved by critics [[User:Luke12345abcd|Luke12345abcd]] ([[User talk:Luke12345abcd|talk]]) 01:51, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
-== Use of 'Marshal' ==
-Surely the usage of 'Marshal' in the text is incorrect? My understanding is that 'Lord Marshal' is a title, not a reference to someone called Marshal who is a Lord. Hence sentences such as 'Suspicious of his abilites, Marshal has Riddick taken into his fortress ...' should be worded as 'Suspicious of his abilites, '''the''' Marshal has Riddick taken into his fortress ...' In fact, I think that '... the Lord Marshal ...' should probably be used as etiquette probably dictates that a full title be used. There are numerous instances of this.

-== Bounty ==
-It's been awhile since I've seen this movie. In the plot description it says there's a "1.5 million bounty" placed on Riddick's head. 1.5 million what? Dollars? Some other form of future currency? Someone please clarify this. - [[User:SoSaysChappy|SoSaysChappy]] ([[User talk:SoSaysChappy|talk]]) 03:46, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
