X-Files 2


"While this is not a mythology movie, it's true to everything that's come before," Spotnitz said at the William S. Paley Television Festival about the new X-Files movie coming out July 25th. "It's true to Mulder and Scully, who they are and where they would be this point in their lives and all of the experiences that they've had."

The series first made the first leap to the big screen with 1998's "The X-Files: Fight the Future." Plans for another film were grounded in 2005 when Carter sued Fox over syndication profits for the show. The lawsuit was later settled. By then, no one gave a crap. Am I wrong?

Carter, who directs the new movie, said it takes place in the present and uses a story envisioned when the series ended. While the show's sprawling alien mythology isn't part of the plot, Carter said there is a reference to Scully's seemingly supernatural son, William, who was born in season eight and later given up for adoption.

I stopped watching about the same time they started shooting the show in LA. And after that doggammed movie. This post is more about putting Gillian Anderson in latex on the Blasphemes site. Enjoy.
