it's an animal thing...
 

We just got back from watching the chronicles of riddick... it was better than I had expected, but still came up short.
The story itself was.... a stretch. I think there were some things that needed to be... expanded on. But it's a movie, not a book. *shrug*
The effects were awesome.
The fight scenes were... unimpressive. I mean they were good and all, only... the camera shots were crap. Well, I didn't like them, anyway.

My highlights:
      1. That one scene from the previews where he's flying through the air to stab the
           bad guy.
      2. There are these dog-type things that like to eat people. Riddick befriends one...
           makes the comment to a fellow prisoner, "It's an animal thing." (hence this
           post's title)
      3. Riddick stabs a d00d in the head, then breaks the knife off.

One thing that was really weird, though - they showed a preview for chronicles of riddick before the movie.
weird. Everyone there was concerned we were in the wrong theatre.

Now david's back to wanting to shave his head. I really feel that if he wants to be jacking w/ his hair he better do it now while he still can (david's gonna grow up to be bald). Only... I really don't think he can pull it off.
Either way... he'll always be my david.
