    There's a trailer knocking around somewhere for it, saw it when i saw the day after tommorow, does look very decent, The story is set 5 years after pitch black where attempting to escape mercanaries sent after him he travels between all the furthest worlds of the galaxy, he then after being sent to prison and escaping becomes involved in a battle against necromongers invading the planet.

    Saw the trailer a while back and I have to admit I'm getting moist, been a while since a half decent Sci-Fi film has been made.

    All I have to say is don't expect too much from this film.....

    For those of you interested, there is an animated version of this film as well.

    Ignore what the score is on IMDB because some of the greatest films and funniest I have ever seen usually got slated on IMDB, must be a case of cross atlantic humour not crossing very well. An example of this is eurotrip, the reviews slagged it high heaven, but it is really a funny film and has some extremely funny moments

    Let me see now, it's not a bad film, a little dune-esque in some regards, and a strangely familliar (Riddick saves the universe) plotline, but it has it's moments, and some of the gags are worth a giggle
    Quoth the server... "404"

    Im constantly let down by dune movies and all the games apart from Dune 2 which i loved to death. Admittidly i havent read the books cause im not a book person but im wholey into the Dune "thing" so im hoping while this isnt strictly "Dune" itll be like it

    I agree with above comments too - we are in NEEED of a good sci-fi! Last one i can think of that sticks in mind was the original Matrix in '99
    I dont like sig pics so i turn off sigs Which doesnt help when i dont know what ive written here! DOH!
