The first ripped out my heart. It's when Riddick returns after leaving John to die & Jack is upset at his death & Riddick says "don't you cry for John's don't u dare" no explanation just cold heartless reality.
The 2nd gave me the giggles
Riddick: looks clear
Johns moves forward & big ass darkness monster tries to take off his head
Johns: YOU SAID CLEAR
Riddick: I said it "looked" clear!!
John: Well how does it look now?
Riddick looks again
Riddick: Looks Clear
Lmao

The first ripped out my heart. It's when Riddick returns after leaving John to die & Jack is upset at his death & Riddick says "don't you cry for John's don't u dare" no explanation just cold heartless reality.

I thought it had less to do with the heartlessness of reality and more to do with Riddick not wanting her to waste her time mourning for a guy who had suggested leaving her behind for the creatures.

Riddick: looks clear
Johns moves forward & big ass darkness monster tries to take off his head
Johns: YOU SAID CLEAR
Riddick: I said it "looked" clear!!
John: Well how does it look now?
Riddick looks again
Riddick: Looks Clear

I also enjoyed this one.

A quote I really love is near the end, after Fry's been taken by the creatures and Riddick is kneeling(?) there in the mud and the rain, shouting "not for me!" There's just so much emotion in his voice.

I agree about ''Not for me !''. It's one of only two times in the saga - the other one being when Kyra passes away at the end of TCoR - where Riddick stops being a badass killer to display a fairly human side.

Paris has 2 of my favorite, just for the sarcasm...
To Jack: "Tell me something, did you run away from your parents, or did they run away from you?"

Also to Jack, following the head shaving: "It's the winner of the look-alike contest."

My favorite part isn't really a line, it's when they're in the Cat and Jack is admiring Riddick and he lifts his finger to have her look ahead just in time to duck under the low-hanging bone.

It always relates Riddick's "coolness" to me.

Did not know who he was *beep* with.

I thought that was a stupid line. clunky, out of place . cheesy basicly.

One of my favorites is when Johns gives the crew the guns to protect themselves after Riddick escapes and tells them to fire off a shot if they see him.
Paris: "What if Mr. Riddick spots us first"
Johns laughs: "There will be no shots"

After Riddick fought and killed one of the creatures he said, "He did not know who he was fu***ng with!"

Lol. My sister always asks how did he know it was a he.
