i am an occasional fan of the x-files, mostly in its last season and since the first movie debut. i am 20 years old and would say im a nerd. most nerds wouldnt think i am, however.

chris carter has proven he can pique interest in almost any audience and i have faith that he will nail this next movie without hesitation.

its been SUCH a long time, so new audiences wouldnt compare xfiles to starwars anymore, maybe xfiles = horror film. and everybody watches horrofilms, yes?

Are the original actors going to be in this? I bet it would be a bigger hit if they continued the serious. Bad– taking a step like sex and the city and making a movie several years later.

I LOVE it how people are judging the movie before having seen it yet.
SpeaKs volumes.God you x files fans are a bunch of whiny *****.
As for me? I was only six when the x files first aired in the UK, but I have fond memories of watching it with my dad…so I shall be seeing this movie,looking foward to it, even if you ‘fans’ aren’t

I devoted 9 years of my life to watching that show. Carter still has a nutshot waiting for him for that sucker punch of a series finale’ he created from every devoted fan who watched it.

I loved the first movie. But between that and the series, we were on the brink of an invasion by aliens that few knew about. From what this sounds like he’s just randomly placing two beloved characters into a situation that has nothing to do with where either the series or movie left us. So why bother digging this stuff up again six years later? Why not just make an entirely new movie or series?

Xfiles fans want to know what happens next. Do we get invaded? Do we fight the aliens off? Did the whole alien invasion thing turn out to be a cover story? Is Cancerman really dead ( considering he got hit by a missile I hope so ). So Mulder and Skully hump like wild monkeys while the alien drop pods are falling?

What we don’t want is some random story full of random BS that sorta kinda ties into the original show. I don’t care if Chris wants to bring in new fans or not. WE are the people that made him millions over the nine years that show was on. We were the ones who stuck by him when he decided to cast the T1000 and some random pseudo-psychic chick to be cardboard cutouts in place of Mulder and Skully. We were the ones that sat and watched while he tossed retarded monster-of-the-week plots at us just waiting for a taste of the real story.

He owes us.

From what I understand (probably from rumors), this is not to be a continuation of the series from the finale, but rather a “monster-of-the-week” from sometime around the 6th-7th season.

The point is, Scully will not have had a child.

I can dig the title, though – it was the primary axiom of the the show’s concept, that Mulder often believes in the paranormal without solid evidence, and Scully refuses to believe in the paranormal unless there is undeniable evidence. Conversely, Scully believes in God and her faith, while Mulder never got any “warm fuzzies” from mainstream religion and hence never accepted it.

Cheesy, yes, but hey, it’s a show for nerds, by nerds, about nerds. I like it.

I’m not a fan of the title, it is very bland. But as long as that isn’t true of the new sequel… but I am doubtful, the series is so successful it is a cash cow.

The real problem was Fox. The original movie (also with a terrible title “Fight the Future”) was supposed to be the end of the series until Fox decided that it would leave too big of a hole in their lineup.

I can’t predict what Chris Carter may have in mind this many years down the road. I’d like to think its evolved. Perhaps to the point where this is where Mulder is searching for a real ‘Life’.. and wants to believe in all the things about humanity he took for granted or didn’t pay attention too. I think a single father or divorced person dealing with the real world has it pretty tough.. but what does he do when unlike us ‘lucky’ ones he’s actually aware and constantly distracted by the ‘Truth’ its no longer just ‘Out There’ it’s ‘In here’ now. I gotta think Mulder would end up sorta like one of the Lone Gunmen and have to choose between a family life.. or ? What also makes it interesting is Scully has ‘been there done that’ but she chose not to leave it all behind.. he did.. what if he’s trying to just Believe in leading a normal life? How do you recover your innocence.. or willfull ignorance and lead a normal life. Given that every parent trys to protect their children until pretty much the second decade of their life.. as a parent wouldn’t Mulder want to do that with his son? And then there’s super crusader Mommy.

For you youngins, I’ll explain the show. When aliens come from the left, Scully is looking to the right. When they come from above, she’s tying her shoes. When they come from below, she’s watching the sky. When they come from all directions, she gets knocked unconscious. Moulder and the audience see everything. No one believes Moulder. If you don’t handle frustration well, you will throw your TV out the window.
