"Betrayed by his own kind and left for dead on a desolate planet, Riddick (Diesel) fights for survival against alien predators and becomes more powerful and dangerous than ever before. Soon bounty hunters from throughout the galaxy descend on Riddick only to find themselves pawns in his greater scheme for revenge. With his enemies right where he wants them, Riddick unleashes a vicious attack of vengeance before returning to his home planet of Furya to save it from destruction."
So I take it it's a prequel? "Riddickulous", indeed.

Well, to be fair, Vin had always planned on Riddick being a trilogy.I'll look forward to this one as long as it continues the Riddick story from where, Chronicles left off. I do, however, hope that the movie is made with more practical effects than CGI. I think, Pitch Black is a great Sci-Fi flick and even though, Chronicles of Riddick turned out to be a, B movie it teetered on the cusp on quality and at times showed great potential. I certainly think the series deserves one more shot. I'm just not sure that there is a large enough audience out there for this to be a success.
wonder how that will turn out with him in the directors chair.
The thing is...Pitch Black was always ever meant to be a stand alone B-grade sci-fi flick. Diesel wasn't even the main star & still a relative unknown when he played the prisoner in transport.
It was a small fanbase after the release of Pitch Black that people wanted to know more about Riddick, his past exploits & future adventures.
