I'm in. Let Van Diesel drive this thing, but someone remind him what made Pitch Black a classic, beg him to dial it back to the franchise's roots just a bit.
Pitch black was amazing....then the next two just went a bit overboard. Needs more of the scifi horror that made that first amazing.
I dunno, I enjoyed the overboard in #2. Movie 3 he actually did dial back quite a bit since 2 didn't sell very well. 3 felt a lot closer to 1.
Yeah 3 was great with the surviving on a planet full of beasts just like the first. Can't believe that was released over 10 years ago.
He got the rights to the franchise in exchange for a cameo in Tokyo Drift.

No worries. You had the spirit of the story basically right even if you had the details wrong.
