... Diesel has officially lost his mind. Maybe it’s the pressure of watching his once promising career slowly spiral out of control and into a black hole. Maybe he sucked in too many exhaust fumes while shooting Fast and Furious . Whatever he’s reason, the guy is clearly deluded, so deluded that he thinks there will be not one, but two sequels to The Chronicles of Riddick . What’s more, he thinks creator David Twohy is science fiction’s answer to Peter Jackson. The big Diesel tells MTV : “David Twohy right now is writing the scripts. The only question is whether we take a ...

My reaction is “Hmm.” Flattering? Sure. Realistic? Not so much. See, if I’m going to spend a year of my life (and more if I write it) on the third installment of a science-fiction series, well, why wouldn’t I just do the third installment of my own science-fiction series?"
