I'm all for it. Love the Riddick franchise, so fun.

Furya? Seems a little late to try to ride the Furiosa hype, but I'm always down for more Riddick.

To be fair, the Furya sequel was planned long before Fury Road was even out. But Fast and Furious was in full swing, so it sat on the back burner forever.

Also to be fair, the Chronicles of Riddick named Riddick's home planet Furya before either new Mad Max movie was even being written.

I had no idea! That's pretty interesting, and also slightly annoying since I'd much rather have more Riddick instead of Fast and Furious 25 through 89: This Time It's Even More Furiouser™.

Damn, I don't remember shit about this franchise. Time for a rewatch, I suppose.

First 2 are classic grand scifi and really among my favorite space movies and then there is a third movie.

Hey the third was a good enough retread of the first, all up until the part where Riddick’s hot bod can apparently cure lesbianism.
