The Chronicles of Riddick Quotes
5 years after Pitch Black, the wanted criminal Riddick arrives on a planet called Helion Prime, and finds himself up against an invading empire called the Necromongers, an army that plans to convert or kill all humans in the universe.
Vaako: This is your one chance. Take the Lord Marshals' offer and bow.
Richard B. Riddick: I bow to no man.
Vaako: [take off his helmet] He is not a man. He's the holy Half-Dead who has seen the UnderVerse.
Richard B. Riddick: Look, I'm not with everyone here. But I will take a piece of him.
[points to Irgun]
Vaako: A piece you will have.

The Guv: There are inmates and there are convicts. A convict has a certain code. And he knows to show a certain respect. An inmate, on the other hand, pulls the pin on his fellow man. Does the guards' work for them... brings shame... to the game. So, which are you gonna be?
Richard B. Riddick: Me? I'm just passin' through.
Richard B. Riddick: Me? I'm just passin' through.
Purifier: [to Riddick] I was supposed to deliver a message to you... if the Vaako failed to kill you. A message from the Lord Marshal himself. He tells you to stay away from Helion, stay away from him, and in return, you'll be hunted no more. But Vaako will most likely report you as dead. So this is your chance. Your chance to do what no man has ever done.
Richard B. Riddick: [director's cut] They say most of your brain shuts down in cryosleep.

Richard B. Riddick: The animal side.
Shirah: All but the Furyan side.

Eve Logan: [about Toombs] What the hell is he thinkin' now?
Richard B. Riddick: He's thinkin' of a triple-max prison. A no-daylight slam. Only three of 'em left in this system, two of 'em outta range for a shitty little undercutter like this one with no legs. Leavin' just one - crematoria. That is what you had in mind. Right Toombs?

Kyra: How do I get eyes like that?
Richard B. Riddick: You gotta kill a few people.
Kyra: Did that. Did a lot of that.
Richard B. Riddick: Then you gotta get sent to a slam.
Kyra: One where they tell you you'll never see daylight again. Only there wasn't a doctor here who could shine my eyes, not even for 20 menthol Kools. Was there anything you said that was true?

Purifier: In this verse, life is antagonistic to the natural state. Here humans in all their various races are a spontaneous outbreak. An unguided mistake. Our purpose is to correct that mistake... because there is another verse. A verse where life is welcomed and cherished. A ravishing ever-new place called Underverse... but the road to that verse crosses over the threshold.

Richard B. Riddick: [in cryosleep] Merceneries. Elementals. Necromongers. Shit, I've never been so popular. I should probaly slip these chains and open up a few arteries. But why drive when you can get driven? Free ticket to Crematoria. Thanks Toombs. Got me some business there, named Jack. And once we settle up, I walk away forever. So I'll just wait... all back-of-the-bus for now.

Aereon: They are an army unlike any other... crusading across the stars toward a place called UnderVerse, their promised land - a constellation of dark new worlds. Necromongers, they're called. And if they cannot convert you, they will kill you. Leading them, the Lord Marshal. He alone has made a pilgrimage to the gates of the UnderVerse... and returned a different being. Stronger. Stranger. Half alive and half... something else. If we are to survive, a new balance must be found. In normal times, evil would be fought by good. But in times like these, well, it should be fought by another kind of evil.

Richard B. Riddick: Don't bother. Guards ain't there. They figured out the Necros are comin' for me. Plan was to clean the bank, ghost the mercs, break wide for the tunnel. And then somebody got a lucky shot off with this rocket launcher here... and took out the sled. Guards took off on foot but rigged the door so no one could follow. They'll take the one ship in the hangar and leave everyone else to die.
Toombs: How come you know all this shit? You weren't even here.
Richard B. Riddick: Cause it was my plan.
Toombs: How come you know all this shit? You weren't even here.
Richard B. Riddick: Cause it was my plan.
[Dame Vaako opens the hanger bay beneath the, pulling a bladed weapon from the wall]
Dame Vaako: I've always wondered, can an air Elemental fly? Now do me a favor. Calculate the odds of you getting off this planet alive... and now cut them in half.
[Dame Vaako circling, forcing Aereon towards the gap, swings her blade, Aereon turns to mist, the blade passing through her and she floats across the pit]
Aereon: No, we can't fly. But we do glide very well.

Purifier: It was hard for me to accept too, the first time I heard these words... But I changed. I let them take away my pain. Just was you will change when you realize the threshold to the Underverse will be crossed only by those who have embraced the Necromonger faith, by those of you who will right now, drop to your knees, and ask, to be purified.
