x-files movie 2008
Someone over on ohnotheydidnt scanned in EW’s preview of the upcoming X-Files movie, I thought this was the most interesting bit:
“Whatever happens, Carter and Spotnitz both believe the real key to The X-Files lies in Mulder and Scully’s relationship, which promises to be a big part of the new film. The series ended with the duo in love and on the lam, and Carter says the movie will be “true to the stories that we’ve told, and to that final episode.” But just like here in the real world, time has passed. “Mulder and Scully have not been frozen in ice,” Duchovny says. “They’ve been leading some kind of life, together or apart, in some parallel dimension. They’ve had experiences that we’ll never know about.”
I started watching the show when it first came out, literally half a lifetime (my lifetime) ago, so as you can probably imagine I’m both terribly excited and completely terrified to see this movie. I can’t believe Chris Carter gave it such a stupid name; you’d think he’d have learned his lesson from Fight the Future, but I guess that was too much to hope for? In the parallel dimension where I have a kajillion dollars and could buy him out, this movie would be written and named by Darin Morgan instead.
Amen.
Also how foxy does Gillian look? So, so foxy.
