I am continuing the TiVo clearance, which is going rather slowly, by watching the 3 #Riddick movies; in order, which I haven't done before.
It's interesting to hear #ClaudiaBlack in #PitchBlack speaking in her native accent. I've never seen her early Aussie and NZ telly stuff, so I've mainly only heard her doing other accents.
From the first movie, there's no real clue about the wider universe. They *could* have made it one with mega-corporations (as with Alien) without contradicting anything established, because the only things established were that that Islam and France still existed, as did bounty hunters for chasing escaped prisoners.
The on-screen ambiguity about who was going to be the 'final girl', in what is basically a #SciFi slasher movie, apparently extended into real life with the actors vying over who was actually the lead.
In retrospect, knowing the series, it's obvious; but without prior knowledge the last death would have been a shock.
