war between two opposing forces, with the key figure being the
Lord Marshal(Feore), the leader of a sect called the Necromongers
waging the "10th Crusade" in the 26th century. Helping
Riddick is Aereon(Dench), the Ambassador of the "Elemental"
race, who helps Riddick unearth the secrets of his origin and
Kyra(Davalos), who has grown up since Riddick knew her as a preteen
girl in the first movie. Attempting to free himself and Kyra from
a subterranean prison, Riddick ends up on board the Necromonger
flagship, where he gets his chance to face off against the Lord
Marshal in a battle over the future of all beings in the
galaxy, both living and dead..
A Man Apart
Sean Vetter and Demetrius Hicks
are members of the DEA who are fighting an ongoing drug war on
the California/Mexico border, they are most successful at it because
of their edge of growing up on the street and being thugs converted
to cops. The DEA busts one of the major players by the name of
"Memo" Lucero and imprison him in the United States
but then a major player named Diablo then takes over the business
and now he is now the major player targeted by Vetter and his
team. But when Vetter's wife is killed in a botched hit organized
by Diablo, he seeks revenge against those responsible and in the
process has to seek help from the imprisoned Lucero in order to
catch Diablo. But in the process, Vetter and Hicks have to fight
their way up the chain to get to Diablo but it's easier said than
done when all Vetter can focus on is revenge...
XXX

Xander Cage is an extreme sports athelete recruited
by the government on a special mission.
Vin Diesel reunites with the director
(Rob Cohen) and the producer (Neal H.Moritz) of the blockbuster
The Fast and the Furious. Diesel stars as Xander "XXX"
Cage, the notorious underground thrill seeker who until now has
been deemed untouchable by the law. NSA Agent Gibbons (Samuel
L. Jackson) forces XXX to cooperate with the government to infiltrate
an underground Russian crime ring and avoid going to prison. Betting
XXX can succeed where other conventional spies have failed, Gibbons
sends XXX to enter this world of crime undetected, using his natural
athletic prowess and a whole lot of attitude. Enlisted for a dangerous
covert mission, he must combat a clever, organized, and ruthless
enemy far beyond the scope of his experience.
Fast and the Furious
The Fast and the Furious takes
you inside the thrilling world of street racing. Vin Diesel stars
as Dominic Toretto, a gang leader who is accused of hijacking
trucks and stealing over a million dollars worth of electronic
equiptment. The FBI sends LAPD officer Brian O'Conner(Walker)

Knockaround Guys
Staring Barry Pepper, Vin Diesel, Andrew Davoli, Seth Green, Dennis
Hopper & John Malkovich
The film follows four sons of
well-known Brooklyn-based mobsters and their
desperate fight to retrieve a bag of cash in a small
Montana town ruled by a corrupt sheriff. As they
unite to find the money, they come face-to-face with
the bloodshed and betrayal that is their birthright.
Boiler Room
Boiler Room chronicles the rise
and fall of Seth Davis
(Giovanni Ribisi), an enterprising college drop-out
who, determined to prove his worth to a demanding
father, takes a job at a small brokerage firm. There, in
the company´s "boiler room", where young men eager
to earn their fortunes work the phones, Seth soon
masters the art of the cold call and with his new job,
begins to regain his father´s respect. But the "boiler
room" quickly draws Seth into a world of corruption
and greed, ultimately jeopardizing all that he has
gained, and all that he had before.
Nia Long portrays co-worker
Debbie Hilliard who
becomes involved with Seth, while Vin Diesel plays
Chris Varick, a young broker who teaches Seth the ways
of the "chop shop". Ron Rifkin (Broadway´s
"Cabaret", LA Confidential) appears as Seth´s
father, a New York City judge, while Ben Affleck makes
a cameo appearance as the man who lures Seth into the
illicit brokerage house.
Pitch Black
Pitch
Black boasts a
cast comprised entirely of relatively unknown but supremely
talented actors, foremost among them the intensely
charismatic Vin Diesel. As the bad-ass, muscle-bound,
gravel-voiced criminal Riddick, Vin Diesel is a man destined
for action figure status; what's even cooler is that he can
really act. Like most of the characters in Pitch
Black, Riddick initially appears to be no more than a two-dimensional
plot device, as the film progresses, he reveals a surprising depth
and complexity that is only
magnified by Diesel's incredible appeal.
Saving Private Ryan
Vin Diesel plays the
role of Private Caparzo in Spilbergs "Saving Private Ryan".
During World War II Three brothers were killed.
The mother is to receive all three notices at the
same time. It is discovered that the
fourth brother, private James
Ryan, is somewhere behind enemy
lines in Normandy. Captain John
Miller and his crew are given the
task of finding private Ryan, and
bringing him home.
The Iron Giant
Vin Diesel plays the the voice of the
Beloved Iron Giant, a more soft character for Vin, but still a
bad-ass, muscle-bound Role!
Strays
Frustrated by the repetitious
grind of one-night
stands and aimless hustlings, studly drug dealer Rick
(played by Diesel) is looking for meaning and
intimacy in his life. Like his testosterone-tweaked
buddies, Rick is a "stray" -- lacking a traditional
family structure and wrestling subconsciously with
the psychological bruises inflicted by his father's
absence. Shielding any vulnerability under the
toughened cloak of detachment, Rick has
administered his life with a deliberate effort
to avoid
reliance on anyone or anything. But things are about to change.
When Rick meets Heather, a corn-fed
walking-talking "girl next door," he suddenly
perceives a new avenue and an opportunity for an
open, committed relationship. Though the chemistry
between the couple is immediately charged, Rick's
street cheek and volatile aggression flare, threatening
to extinguish their relationship before it begins.
Trying to assimilate into Heather's world, Rick takes
heat from his perpetually adolescent cohorts, whose
ambitions are restricted to riding fast, toking slow,
and ditching hard. However, like his childhood alter
ego, Ferdinand the Bull, Rick is only a fighter by
training and ripe for the transition to a softer,
sweeter sensibility.
Multi-Facial
Brought actor / director Vin Diesel to the attention of
Steven Spielberg, who promptly cast him in "Saving
Private Ryan". Through a series of auditions, a young
actor in New York City struggles with his identity. Based
on real life events in the life of Vin.
Additional track of Vin's work on "Iron Giant",
plus six additional interview tracks.
