Is there any kind of decent explanation for how we get from the end of chronicles to yet another dangerous alien world? Only knowing what I saw in the trailer it looked a bit too much like pitch black redux to me.
Yeah, as CutThumb said:
It tucks the Necros story away very neatly very early on and then shifts up the gears quickly.
The first part of the film is Riddick fighting for his life with aliens but then it briefly flash backs to how he got there and then it's all the rest back on the planet. It was not great, but it was enough. I would have liked it better if the mercs would have at least MENTIONED Riddick once being leader of the threat that was taking over, destroying and 'borging' the entire galaxy! But I guess what it comes down to is the Necros are not as effective as they think they are yet.
I mean, if for much of the galaxy it's just business as usual, and Riddick's last 'job' was just a blip or none existent on his list of offenses, Vaako must have a long ways to lead them before killing everyone so he can get to Underverse.
As much as I do love this franchise, I still am fuzzy on the whole Necromonger religion....
