March 30, 2004 -- Update: More PB Image Galleries!
Galleries 13, 14 and 15 are up, full of more Rhiana shots from the film!

March 29, 2004 -- Dark Fury still shining bright
Amazon reports that The Chronicles of Riddick - Dark Fury is still having amazing presales. Still two and a half months before its official release date, it has now climbed to the #24 spot in Anime and Manga presales, and is now in the #8,074 spot for DVD sales. Those are excellent numbers! In sharp contrast, the buzz for The Chronicles of Riddick is still very disappointing. A member of the Ain't It Cool News site posted a review of a sneak peek screening, in which he expressed a rather worrying level of disappointment with the film (the review vanished soon after). Now a rumor has surfaced that a second round of reshoots has been ordered. Too bad it's unlikely their reshoots will solve the problem we have with the film... but then again, it's sounding more and more like Rhiana may have dodged a bullet here.

March 28, 2004 -- ATTENTION CANADIAN FANS!
White Collar Blue is currently running on the Showcase channel. We didn't find out in time for the first broadcast of Rhiana's episode, but the series is about to start over. Season 1, Episode 1 will be broadcast on April 1. Rhiana's episode, #10, should run about two weeks later. If you get the Showcase channel, and would be willing to tape for us, please write to us and let us know.

March 27, 2004 -- Pitch Black Screen Caps, Continued!
Ardath has added two more galleries of screencaps to the Pitch Black area. More are on their way soon!

Spotlight Image of the Day:

We're betting this is a screencap you've never seen before. From a blink-and-you-missed-it moment in the film, it happened when Jack stopped by Paris to give him more wick-holders for his bottles. Rhiana's face only entered the picture for three frames of film, so you have to be quick on your feet (or an obsessive-compulsive nut!) to catch it.

March 25, 2004 -- Pitch Black Screen Caps, Part 1!
The first 10 image galleries for Pitch Black are up, brand-new screencaps from the Director's Cut. As usual, it's capped with our normal obsessive-compulsive attention to detail, so if Rhiana was in a shot, it's in our galleries. This is only the first half of the film, though -- many more galleries are on their way soon. Click here to check them out!

March 23, 2004 -- The move is completed.
We are now located on our new webspace. Everything should be functional again. Please let us know if you have any problems or encounter any missing files.

March 22, 2004 -- Update -- Message Board temporarily closed.
We are in the process of relocating from one webhoster to another, and have closed our messageboard for the duration of the move, which may take 24-48 hours. You will see a message on this page (and will be able to post to the board again) the moment the move is completed. If you use the board to send private messages to friends, be aware that any messages you send while the move is in progress may be lost. Thank you.

March 20, 2004 -- Update: More articles!
While we haven't received any additional scans of Rhiana articles, Ardath has gone ahead and put up text-only pages for more than a dozen in her files. Now you can read about Rhiana's early career and follow its progress in print. Hopefully we'll have even more soon! Click here to access the articles.

March 19, 2004 -- Update: More Home and Away!
Erin Pedz keeps giving us wonderful images. Now the seventh gallery of her Home & Away screencaps is online. Click here to see Rhiana's "Aimee" try her hand at seduction!

March 18, 2004 -- Update: Pre-Order Success!
According to Amazon.com, Dark Fury is already a huge success. Based upon its sales so far (and we still have almost three months until it actually comes out!) it's the #35 "early adopter" item in Anime and Manga sales. Its overall rank on Amazon is currently #14,501. We'd say that's a strong indication of Rhiana's commercial viability!

March 14, 2004 -- Update: New Galleries!
To accommodate all the wonderful pictures and articles we've been getting, we now have several new galleries for you to enjoy:

You'll definitely want to check them out!

March 13, 2004 -- Update: Gifts from Down Under!
Well, someone needs to smack Ardath's computer. For the last month or so, it was refusing to download some wonderful email that RhiFan sent her... scans of Rhiana articles! She didn't even know they were there until today! Artemis came to the rescue, fortunately, so now we have them for you to enjoy:

          

And if that wasn't enough, Erin Pedz, one of our New Zealand members, has been screencapping from her videotape of Home and Away... check out the first of her screencaps!

Thank you, thank you, thank you Jon and Erin!

March 12, 2004 -- Update: White Collar Blue now up!
Our filmography page for White Collar Blue is now online, along with six image galleries and two fantastic media files. Fan Artists: check out the image galleries -- they are full of amazing face-shots of Rhiana wearing a variety of riveting expressions. Now if we can just get this show to air in America...

March 9, 2004 -- Update: First Dark Fury images!
The first images from The Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury are out, and they have Peter Chung's trademark style from Aeon Flux, to be sure! Check them out!

The synopsis on AnimatedBliss.com is as follows:
The Chronicles Of Riddick: Dark Fury delivers thrilling sci-fi adventure that takes Riddick, Jack, and Imam on a death-defying confrontation with an intergalactic bounty hunter.
Rhiana Griffith as a girl named Jack... why couldn't the movie be this good?

March 8, 2004 -- Update: Archibald Never Looked So Good!
Rhiana's portrait for the Archibald Prize entry is complete! Click here to read all about it... and check it out!

March 6, 2004 -- Update: Order Dark Fury!
The Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury is now available for pre-order through Amazon.com. Rumors say that the storyline of this 30-minute anime is stand-alone, and doesn't rely upon the feature film. That's definitely a plus! Also, look back to our February 26 update for links to the four versions of the Pitch Black re-release.

March 2, 2004 -- Update
Our message board is back online and functional, whew!

February 29, 2004 -- We know, we know...
Something's gone wonky with the message board. If you log in, it becomes inaccessible. We're working on fixing it, but we're still trying to figure out what the problem is. We hope to have it back up soon.

February 27, 2004 -- Update: Whoo hoo, it's TRUE!
We just got positive confirmation: Rhiana is starring in the TCOR Anime! As soon as we can give you a pre-order link, we will. We're still gonna miss her like crazy from the movie, of course, but at least there's this in consolation (and something, for those of us who are skipping the film, to look forward to in June)!

February 26, 2004 -- Update: Dark Fury?
DavisDVD has announced the re-release of Pitch Black, in June 2004, to help promote the film The Chronicles of Riddick. Our beloved Pitch Black itself has been unfortunately retitled to The Chronicles of Riddick: Pitch Black. The new release will be available in four formats: Widescreen Director's Cut, Full-Screen Director's Cut, Wide-Screen Theatrical Release, and Full-Screen Theatrical Release. Extras have not yet been announced, but we're hoping there'll be lots more Rhiana. In even better news, we now have confirmation that yes, indeed, an anime tie-in to the film exists. Its name is The Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury, and it will be released on DVD on June 15, retailing at $14.98. There's no clear word on what it's about or who stars in it, but we can hope the prior rumor that Rhiana will recap her role, as the only Jack we'll ever love, is in fact true. We'll keep looking for more information as it emerges!

February 17, 2004 -- Update!
The Pitch Black filmography page is online; image galleries will be coming soon.

February 9, 2004 -- Update: Unprecedented Artistic Success!
Rhiana's first art exhibition closed on February 1, and it was an enormous success. At 59 paintings, it was larger than most shows of its kind. It was also the Tighes Hill Gallery's first solo exhibition... and it sold out! Every single painting sold, and the gallery has continued to receive inquiries about whether more paintings are available. Additionally, one of the gallery's co-owners, Robyn Stanton-Werkhoven -- a major artist herself -- has chosen Rhiana as the subject for a portrait which will be submitted for the prestigious Archibald Prize. We know we're impressed!

February 4, 2004 -- Update!
Superchick has done it again! She's set up Was It Sex? It was Amore, the Official 15 Amore Fanlisting with The Fanlistings Network! If you love the movie as much as we do, drop by and sign up on the Fanlisting. Haven't seen it? Check out our shopping page and get yourself a copy.

January 20, 2004 -- Updates!
Well, we've had a busy few days here. Rhiana's gallery exhibition has opened, and we're trying to get some materials we can post... but in the meantime, our Rhiana Biography is now up, and we're in the process of testing out a new Message Board that will replace the Yahoo!Group. Check them out, and let us know what you think!
