Riddicks Eyes

I know its an old movie but the question where Riddick got his eyes really bothers, as it isn´t clear. Maybe someone who has seen the cartoon or read some books can clear this up.

He said a Doctor "shined them" in Pitch black.

He also said the "voices in his head polished" them at one point.

Then theres that big cat like creature in that prison which clearly has the same eyes as Riddick.

Very Intriguing!

Were any of these movies worth watching? I havent seen them yet.

The first film Pitch Black is most definitely worth viewing, it is an underrated sci fi film, beautiful to look at, the art direction is a high point in this film.

well good thing it was the first film, now i wont be disappointed AND confused

they explained how he got them in the game "escape from butcher bay" your hiding in the sewer of butcher bay from all these guards and stuff and you come across this old doctor and if you give him enough ciggeretes he "shines" you and you get the abilities. also once you hear voices in your head which give you clues throughout the game

Pitch Black is tremendous. Dark Fury (the animated film) is also surprisingly good.

Definitely get Pitch Black though.

on its way from netflix 🙂

i liked pitch black, now are all these other movies like a chain basing off of pitch black?

what other movies

Pitchblack has a sequel called Chronicles of Riddick, it was suppose to be a trilogy but I don't think it's on anymore, no loss because Chronicles was rather disappointing.

It also has an animation as pointed out by Jaden. Pitch Black is the original though and where it all started.

So should i even bother watching the "sequel"?

Alright then.

The order is Pitch Black....Dark Fury(animated)....Chronicles of Riddick

That would be the correct order to watch the movies...FYI

BTW when does the game take place...i never played it...is it set before or after or in the middle of the movies...anybody know?

I'm pretty sure Escape from butcher bay is set before Pitch Black.

Yeah, Butcher Bay was definitely set before Pitch Black. Riddick is being pursued in Pitch Black because he escaped from Butcher Bay.

Chronicles of Riddick wasn't so bad. It does have it's good points but the budget really held it back, i think.

i think that riddick is a cool character

Actually, Riddick's eyes weren't shined by Pope Joe(The supposed doctor) All you did for him was get some parts to fix his radio, and get him some cigarettes. Riddick's eyes are shined as a part of him unlocking his Furyan abilities. He also unlocks the Wrath of the Furyans ability, a sort of super energy blast.

In "Pitch Black" they explained that he was sentenced for life, so he had his eyes changed so that he could see dark in order to live in his prison cell(because it was constantly dark).
