    lame. i LOVED the series, but what was 'x files' about this movie?? where are the aliens, or flashing lights in a forest, hell, just through in a wolfman or something!? it was like an episode of CSI starring a psychic & xhibit.

    so you were expecting aliens, flashing lights in the forest and maybe a wolfman? :D

    some would consider psychic abilities xfile-ish enough to sustain the story. and lets face it, whenever religio/faith is involved in any capacity, well... thats the biggest x file of all surely. it was subtitled 'i want to believe' remember? and what is it we choose to believe? and how is that belief tested and sustained.

    haha :D no i wasn't expecting those things exactly, as cool as a wolfman would've been :cool:
    but just something a little more supernatural than 'those damn dirty russians!' (no offence)

    that's just what i loved about the show when i was a kid :) and i do consider psychic abilities 'x-file worthy', i just wanted something bigger. maybe they should swap endings with indyIV?! :eek:

    despite being a big fan of frankenstein, i actually wasnt too thrilled with the story line. but then i figured(after i chose to ignore that plotline altogether, cause it was crap), everyone in the movie was wanting to believe in something, from muldar wanting to believe in the ex priests psychic abilities through scully's belief she would find a cure for the little boy to the ex priest believing he would find absolution through prayer.

  • this may be of some interest, but there is an x-files comic series that just started. spotintz wrote issue #0 and it seems he will be writing more. the comic is pretty good, though i liked the movie and all, i think this would have been the better movie, though it lacks any of the character building that was in the movie, scully becoming a doctor and all. but for the monster of the week stuff this was great.

    Probably been mentioned before, but I haven't seen this clip in a couple of years and just noticed it.
