Will you believe that X-FILES 2 is actually filming this December?
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Comingsoon.net is reporting that X-FILES 2 actually begins production in December after years of talk about a follow-up flick. I actually recently bought the first three seasons in some radically cheap sale at Best Buy ($20 a season) and will probably put them on in the next day or two as background while I go about my Halloweening.
I loved the show and as a fan I'd love to see the further adventures of Mulder and Scully, but I have to wonder if a little too much time has gone by. I hope I'm overthinking it as I really do want to see an awesome X-FILES story again. What about you?

The X-Files was great and a really feel like we need a conspiracy-oriented show in this day and age, but it's time has passed. They really dropped the ball, just like they did with the latter seasons. I feel really burned by the show to be honest, and that's just what I remember. It's like an aftertaste. I used to love the X-Files, but I disliked the first movie. I heard they're going in the monster direction for this one, which is great. But still, the flick needs to be scary as all fuck to make anyone care.
-
That's the other thing, if it's PG-13 that's going to suck balls. I want a gritty X-Files that delivers the scares. I don't want nudity or a Se7en-like darkness though. But it can't be PG-13 and deliver the scares it needs to make me care. TAKE THAT AS ADVICE EXECS. EITHER COME OUT SWINGING WITH A TRUE-BLUE MONSTER MOVIE THAT IS RATED-R DUE TO INTENSITY AND SCARINESS, OR DON'T BOTHER.
-
I believe it. But does really anyone care?
Thought not. -
Can't see it pulling in any serious numbers in the theatres but I'll be happy to watch it on vid.
-
If the movie is great, then it will be like any other movie and have legs and word of mouth. Otherwise, expect "Serenity" biz and a decent DVD release.
-
Featuring Gillian Anderson's firey red hair.
-
I'm writing something superior and not in the greedy WGA
-
This movie is going to own the box office in at least the first week.
-
as in WHY????
-
And this, part II. If a success, I would make Part III as apocalyptical... and unhappy ending.
-
And to that I say... SUPERNATURAL. And coming from someone who missed only two episodes of The X-Files thanks to Julia Roberts cleavage and a Kid Rock concert, I was a pretty big fan of the show. But Supernatural at times (especially this season), not only captures the vibe of that show so well, in some cases it surpasses it. I will say this though, both series main weakness are their mythology episodes, but at least Supernatural seems to have a clear direction of were it's headed as opposd to Files mess of central storyline. Too bad these two properties couldn't do a crossover, because Mulder, Scully & the Winchesters could easily co-exist in the same universe.
-
...could ya please forget season nine and resurrect The Lone Gunmen for this? You should have never killed those guys off in the first place.
-
This could be given the "Wrath of Khan" treatment in the sense that the movie recognises that time has passed and the characters are older and their lives have changed.
For example I can see Mulder actually assuming the "smoking man" role where he's concealing the truth rather than exposing it. Scully would've quit the FBI a long time ago and I can see her practising medicine in a quiet surburb.
What I don't want to see in this movie is the two characters still running around solving X file "mysteries of the week" cases like Scooby Doo.
-
...NO MONICA REYES!!! A Doggett cameo would be ok... BUT NO FUCKING MONICA REYES!!!
-
That's exactly what your gonna get. The "mysteries of the week" scenarios was where the series shined, and its been common knowledge for years this flick is supposed to follow that path.
-
Yeah, the last few seasons were lacking, but I'd be more than interested in seeing another movie. I'm not sure about most people, though.
-
Next Years Citizen Kane!
-
Who fuckin cares about Mulder and Scully investigating some random X-File in the 90's. It's been done in the series. I want to see Mulder and Scully gone underground and forming the resistance against the 2012 alien colonization while being hunted down by Adam Baldwin. Much better than going backwards.

"Home" is STILL the most disturbing hour of television ever.
by shermdawg
-
Sheesh. I remember first seeing that series listed in a magazine and getting excited, thinking it would be about unsolved FBI cases... and then tuning in and seeing some moronic UFO / conspiracy nonsense instead. Well, I guess the "Area 51" nuts will be ecstatic over this.
-
But this way past it's sell by date...
-
Easily more frightening than ninety-nine percent of the hokey horror garbage in theaters (I'm looking at you Saw). Anyway, unlike most horror these days it wasn't filled with plot holes and it had some sick shit.
-
It's too late. X Files had it's moment, but now it's passed. Unless somebody were to reboot the franchise as Tyler Perry Presents Mulder N Skullyz Exreme Caper Solvin', then you'd have something

It's been too long yet everyone's dying to see Nimoy as Spock?
by carl's hat
...come on people. This is perfect timing. The stars still look good, the show has had a decent rest (something Star Trek should have done years ago), the stand alone monster idea for a movie will be cool and nothing, yet has taken its place.
Supernatural is good but The Files at it's peak?! Hell, when was the last time a horror show scored major Emmies?
The truth is still out there... -
It would be great but is David Duchovny ready to embrace his inner Mulder? I hope so. This would put my fanny in a theater seat. I’d love to see Mulder, Scully and their daughter come out of living off the grid to save the world from conspiracy once again. Hey… it could happen.
-
Fox should have cancelled the series at the end of season 5 (while it was still on top) and gone the route of feature films - with a new one every 2-3 years.
Hindsight is 20-20 -
It's NEVER too late for high quality movie-going. Let's hope they go for a big stand-alone movie and bring us all back into the "truth" fold. I, for one, can't wait.
-
It's never too late for an X-File movie. Still one of the top two to three shows of all time in my book. It'll never be too late for Twin Peaks movie, it'll never be too late for a Carnivale movie, it'll never be too late for an X-Files movie. That said, the public can be fickled. Most have a short term memory. I think it'll be well received, but I don't think it'll make half the amount of money it would've made say 5 to 6 years ago...a couple of years after the first movie.
-
X-Files 2......awwwww yeah!!!
-
the rest of the movie going public who knows. X-Files was popular back in the day and it probably has a better shot of regaining some of that popularity than Trek, which was at its peak in the early, early nineties.
-
The first movie was ok, but pretty lame. Steer clear of gratuitous CG and use a lean, mean script and all will be well.
-
...as he's killed by an essplodin' vending machine!
-
I mean really.
I loved the X-Files, but unless this
is just amazing, is there really
a call for this movie other than
for those involved to make money? -
and yeah, change their situations, scully is married and happy, till she sees mulder in gitmo on tv.
the only problem is that the bush admin is too unbelievable, so it'd be a documentary on money laundering and cover ups. -
Then pull your heads out of your asses. Good day.

...then it certainly isn't too late for an X-files movie. And yes, I realize that Simpson's is still making new shows (it is isn't it? I may catch shit for this but I've never liked the Simpsons even a little bit). With the exception of S9, this was probably the best show ever to be on regular tv. And the XF movie wasn't as bad as everyone makes out...it just seemed like a 2 hour episode with a couple cuss words in it (any movie with Martin Landau has definite ass kicking-ness at some point). Plus, I will always have a geek-crush on Gillian Anderson. Count me in for sure!
-
Haha, that was one of the few episodes of X-files I watched, and it was great. The only other one I remember is the one where cockroaches were tiny robots sent from outerspace to spy on humans. But I couldn't watch any other episodes without being put to sleep by David Duchovny's dull, monotone persona.
-
The ep "Home" was done by mid-90's Fox TV standards, and it's STILL creepy as fuck (and thank God for this topic for reminding me to watch that again before Halloween). Just give us Mulder and Scully taking on a cool monster with no "conspiracy" bullshit (fun in the first five seasons and the movie, but fell apart after the mid point of season 6) and X-Philes will come back in droves.
-
but it died of natural causes
-
Well, at least not for a second airing on Fox that is.
-
Chris Carter wanted the character to be necrophiliac, but the network made him change it to death fetishist.
Now is your chance, Chris... -

-
...them teasing us with Gibson Praise being locked in a room with a gray in "The Beginning" (6.1) and not really following up on it until a few years later.
-
Actually, after seeing ManBearPig's debut last week, I hope to god Matt and Trey make a slasher flick out of that sonuvabitch.

There is no comparision to X-Files especially Supernatural
by lovecraftfan
I'm sorry but when X-Files was in its prime it was a watershed series. One of the few genuinely intelligent scifi/horror series. How many shows of the genre have been nominated for multiple Emmys much less actaully have an episode banned from TV.
-
My only requirement is that it build on the UFO conspiracy myth-arc that grounded out in total shambles and that it not concentrate on some isolated Bigfoot/Nessie monster of the week type plot. The moster episodes were oftentimes retreading the same tired territory. Give us "something to believe" with regard to the UFO plots. Undo the silly, short-on-time rub-out of the entire colonization conspiracy. Undo that god-awful "Samantha got molested, not abducted" anti-ending to the Mulder storyline. Give us the invasion of the greys that was always hinted and never fully realized. Series - redeem thyself!!
-
Like Marvel's "Ultimate" line, just boil it down to the basics: Mulder and Scully still work for the FBI, she's still a skeptic, and they don't have a kid together.
-
First of all, I think that with the exception of Season 9, the last few seasons were pretty good. I thought the "Hunt for Mulder" stuff was interesting. Also, the role-reversal for Scully in dealing with Doggett breathed some new life into the show. It was dramatic watching Scully struggle with being the "believer" when you could tell she didn't really want to be. And Doggett is just plain badass; great character.
Second, even though I'll concede S9 was the weakest, the show ended with so many open threads that I want some payoff for my investment in 9 years of X-Files. What happened to Skinner? What have Mulder and Scully been doing while on the run? What happened to Gibson Praise? What have Doggett and Reyes been doing since the X-Files are closed? What kind of effect has the knowledge that colonization will occur in 2012 had on Mulder?
We may not ever get a third X-Files movie. The fact that the Series Finale hoisted that big invasion/colonization plot thread into our face for 2012 just begs to be explored. And while I don't disagree that some of the best X-Files episodes were the creepy as hell, killer monster ones, I think it's a mistake to ignore the 800 lb Gorilla that Chris Carter, himself, put into the room. -
Put both in the 'now'. Add the Lone Gunmen. Finally bed Mulder and Scully. Add the current Winchester Boys to the storyline and use it to reboot a NEW Fox Series! (Fox are you listening!) A night with a new X-Files AND Supernatural!?! Fox would have it locked in all night!
Avengers Assemble!!! -Stark -
The glory days of the X-Files were done by better writers, like Morgan & Wong. Carter just took all the credit and ran the series into the ground.
-
Hmmmmmmmm. In our fast-food society, you think 10 years is too long for a follow-up to the X-Files movie? Sure, the show ended in '02, but it sucked the last few seasons. This is a good idea 3 years too late. The world has moved on. People are too interested in giant killer fart clouds on lame spooky dramas like Lost.
-
Such a great show and it kept being ok even with the other cast and stuff, but boy did they seem to have no idea what they were doing with the overarching mythology. They should just make a frickin movie that ends the story already. No mystery babies, no bible shit, no Mystic Pizza girl. Just have the oiley invasion occur and Mulder teams up with Cancer man to stop it once and for all.
-
... it can be a great thing.
-
X Files had a lot going for it. The monsters, the unspoken romance between the leads, its ability to take Bab5's mythology/arc storytelling devise to a new level. Watershed show. But things have changed and everthing Chris Carter was doing new has been overdone to the point of yawn-inducement. Having said that, if the script and story, hell if the TRAILER, is good, this movie has a chance. But not necessarily a Star Trek nostalgia-backed chance. It will have to survive on its own merits.
-
I loved the first few seasons of the x files but the end years were very bad. X Files is a ninties thing, too much time has passed, it worked the post coldwar premillenium tension really well its just not going to be as effective today, let it lie waiting for a awfull son of mulder reboot in 15 years time! If i was David Duchovney finally having put some distance between the X Files with good work on Californication i would not go anywhere near the fox mulder again
-
If the X-Files got a second-life, I'd be ecstactic. Mulder is probably my favorite character ever (depending on whether or not Greedo shot first). Geez, has anyone at AICN seen the script? If they're shooting in December with the strike anyday now, it must be pretty well done. I would love to see something akin to Wrath of Mulder, stitched into continuity but open enough for new fans to come in and embrace the show.

But reality has shown they are a bunch of inept, stupid Bush cronies. Maybe the aliens can take it over and improve it.

X-Files Monster Movie! No Myth! No Aliens!
by stereotypical evil archer
Stand alone movie.
-
I seem to remember an episode that purported to answer this, but I'm not sure if it really did or not. They should tie it in with his missing sister somehow, that was always why he was so adamant about chasing down the conspiracy. My favorite episodes were actually the more comedic ones, like when Mulder switched body's with Michael Mckeon. Anyway, I can't say I've been really wanting a new X-Files movie, but if one comes out, I'll go see it.
-

Quirky Funny Spooky Gross that's what X-Files is.
by stereotypical evil archer
Yeah. Tooms and Darin Morgan!
-
... but this seems to be about 10 years too late. It's like SOOOOO 1990s. But I guess the 1990s were ok - Dubbya, Putin and the rest of the crazies hadn't started bombing civilians and curbing our civil rights, so we could afford to be afraid of aliens and yetis and the lot...
-
The conspiracy eps started off interestingly, but just got stupider and stupider as time went on. (It was like a big jerk off with no happy ending!) The last movie was such a HUGE disapointment. I saw it opening weekend with a packed audience of X-Philes and people actually booed at the end of it! You could tell that people were visibly upset about the film. God, it was so fucking stupid! (How exactly did Mulder and Scully get back from Antarctica? Please explain.) The movie was just a place-holder for the TV show: it didn't expand on the mythos, answer any relevant questions about the mythology or advance it in any way. The movie pretty much killed the TV show for me. I watched the next season hoping for some answers and when I got none and then Duchovny quit, I quit also. But the early shows and several stand alone eps were SO frickin' good: "Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose", "War of The Corprophages", "Home", "Jose Chung's From Outer Space", "Humbug". (Most of those eps written by the best scribe for the show: Darrin Morgan, who even played "tail-boy" and the "Fluke-man" on the show.) So now the series is over and they're gonna throw a totally superfluous movie in our faces? YAWN! But hey, Mulder and Scully gotta eat!
-
was a skrull. xfiles wiki says her dad gave her to 'colonists' [the alien at the beginning of the movie was one]
in exchange for alien embryos. blah blah blah. -
wanna crawl up there and sleep.
-
More Gillian Anderson on screen CANNOT be bad. Even with Danny Dyer, God help us all.
-
She died and was absorbed into Starlight or something. It was a two-part episode where they were investigating kidnapped children whose bodies were found in Santa's Villiage (or something). At the end of the ep, Mulder saw his sister dancing with ghost children to some really spooky Moby music. Actually, it was a pretty good episode. I can't remember the exact season, but it was the one where Mulder ended up getting abducted.
-
Hm. Then I should really grab those DVDs I've been putting off buying for so long! Let's see... I'll need all nine seasons, the first movie, and the Lone Gunmen series for good measure. WOO I'M EXCITED!
-
In the current age of Ben Stiller, SAW flicks and movies specifically designed to make Americans hate themselves for being Americans, you're damn straight we need another X-FILES movie! Have the aliens/international cabal abduct William and get Mulder and Scully back out there with their FBI badges, cell phones and guns being chased by unmarked black helicopters.
Anyone who says differently needs to be strapped down and forced to watch shit like THE COMEBACKS over and over and over...
-
1990s conspiracies of aliens mutilating cattle and getting autopsied and making crop circles, or NWO black helicopters were creepy and scary and fun (unless you were a true believer). 2000s conspiracies of Presidential administrations killing thousands in broad daylight, that's not so fun (though, for the record, I find most 9/11 conspiracy as daft as most UFO conspiracy).
-
Everything from their mythology episodes to the monster of the week to the comedic episodes the show could do just about anything. There are few other shows that could handle so many different moods without making a winking at the camera meta-TV Show. Season nine did suck, but if I remember correctly eight was surprisingly good. Bring back Doggett, but forget Reyes, she was the weakest link. Everybody's ripping off this show anyway, they might as well make another buck or two.
-
Angel, Lost, BSG, Supernatural, 24, The Wire, The Shield, Dexter, etc. all filled the hole when X Files went into the shitter and disappeared forever. I was glued to the set watching X Files back in the day though. Shit, I was in Highschool back then! LOL.
-
He seems so exhausted in every role he's done since about season 3...
-
The show was as good as I remember, the main story-arc at least. And that is most likely what would drive any new movie again.
But that last season of eps, in 9, wow. Talk about hunting for a new direction. I think Carter was really hoping for the Law&Order gag to work. Just keep the show going on and on. That was a mistake.
He should have given us 5 solid seasons of kick ass main-arc then put it all in the can.
Use the films to explore the meatier parts of the arc. Or at least go Star Trek with it. (ST 2-6 only, heh.) -
Small Potatoes. Loved the guy taking over as Mulder and putting moves on Scully. Not to mention a great superpower, become some hot chicks husband and bang her. Good stuff.
-
I wasn't overly thrilled with the first movie, and the last season wrote them into such a massive hole. I'm not sure things can be salvaged here. Maybe they could do a Superman Returns and pretend only the good seasons happened? Mulder could go visit the lone gunmen and tell them about this time he had a dream they all died for no reason and they could all laugh.
-
I write this as someone who bought the entire series for seventy uk pounds yesterday. (Very cheap.) If chris carter can get vince gilligan and darrin morgan to polish the story this could be a classic. Hope to god its not a mythology story. Or worse another aliens rip off. get it right please.
-
Chris Carter's script is about a MotW and chronologically takes place sometime during the first few seasons. Personally, I'm all for this. I think they've realized what went wrong with the series and will be careful not to repeat those mistakes.
-
I certainly don't claim to understand all of it, but the alien stuff was always compelling to watch. The episodes always had this dark, mysterious vibe and I actually feared for the characters lives. In the standalone episodes I knew that they Mulder and Scully would survive, which took the tension right out of things.
-
Can't wait, X-files is still one of the greatest shows ever bugged by a horendously terrible finale. Hope this one wraps it up properly.
-
"It must of been something I ate." The series started to decline when they moved the show to LA. It lost that mysterious vibe that filming in Canada provided. Apparently the aliens got sick of the weather in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Stupid aliens going all Hollywood on us. Seasons seven and nine had their moments, but paled in comparison to 1-6. I remember thinking that season 7 wasn't that bad, but that's because Robert Patrick is a badass. But the Reyes character was god-awful. Thanks to Best Buy putting the show on sale every few months my girlfriend and I own the whole freaking series. I thought I was a big fan back when it was on TV but I was surprised at how many episodes I'd never seen before. I had no idea that Terry O'Quinn played not one, not two, but three DIFFERENT characters throughout the series.
-
If I was Mulder and Scully's director I would tell them to give me real fucking field reports, not Philosophy 101 term papers.
-
what about cancer man?
-
Got the first season of Sopranos for $50, which is about $3.90 per episode. Got the first season of X-Files for $20, which is about 83 cents per episode.
-
The cigarette smoking man got a rocket to his face in the series finale.
-
ha ha. that's awesome

THE X FILES reinvented TV, it's responsible for the golden age of serial TV. It was the best show on TV for its firts 6 seasons, and remain on of the best TV Show Ever. When i see all the craps that Hollywood gave us the past few years, I just praise God (and i mean CCarter) for this sequel. Give us a loner, a freaky monster-of-the week or a creepy serial killer, Mulder's humour, and show everybody that THE X FILES still rule everybody's asses. I'll be the firts in line. Yippi Kai Mothafucka. (Oh, and let Dogget and Reyes where they belong : the gutter)
-
So happy
-
"Home" got so many complaints from viewers...Fox never repeated it. Not sure if it's true...but I remember reading somewhere that "Home", even in syndication, can't be shown before 10PM.
-
I hope this is the start of the re-launch of the series.
-
TOTALLY excited about this. spotnitz and carter wrote all the best xf episodes (aside from d. morgan). and spotnitz and carter wrote the feature script. it's gonna rock. i'm SO excited!!!! i totally miss the x-files. nothing on t.v. compares.
-
Loved the show, loved the first movie, don't understand the haterism. A rated-R X-Files movie would be orgasmic, but it ain't gonna happen.
-
Call me a casual viewer if you want, but I think most are like me...I used to watch X-Files all the time, and loved the frightening and boogeyman mystery episodes. Towards the end when they started yacking on about conspiracy this and conspiracy that is when the series lost me. I came back for the final episode...and it sucked.
Make the movie like it was before. -
I was a big X-Files' fan, but season 7 marked the begginning of the end. Despite having some of the best season openers (6th Extinction) and finale (Requiem, which in my head still is the REAL ending for the series), the season presented some of the most shitty hours in television history: being that for the bore (Orison, Maleeni, all things) or the crapiness (Fight Club, First Person Shooter, Je Souhaite - aka the Jeanie Show). Season 8 recovered some of the dignity for stand alone episodes (Empedocles was my all-time favourite), but the mythology turned to a shitty mess. They should've used that season as a new beggining for the X Files, with fewer mythologic episodes that could follow the natural course of the storyline (the fear for the incoming apocalypse predicted in the movie) and no perspective whatsoever for Mulder's return. Perhaps THAT could've saved the show for at least 3-4 seasons. Then we'd be in 2004, the show is over, four years later we'd get movie#2, and the four years after that, in 2012, a third and last movie to end the whole series. But after everything that actually happened, specially the despicable S9, with its Scully's Jesus Baby and CSM becoming Satan and being obliterated by missiles, I fail to see any purpose or relevance for this release.
-
Boy, I guess I really didn't watch the last couple seasons. I thought maybe I'd just forgotten them. But certainly I'd have remembered that.
-
C'mon, everybody's doin' it.
-
I'd much rather see the Mulder and Scully reunion on Californication.
-
Freakin' Sweet! I can't wait to see the continuing adventures of Mulder Sculley, Skinner, the Cigarette Smoking Man and even Doggett- but not that other chick- she was boring.
Think of the Special Effects!
-
WHAT ABOUT X-FILES 3, DAMN IT??!??
-
IT WAS REYES!!! AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT!!! (sniff, sniff)
-
Can't wait, but isn't the Duch into his later 40's now and Gillian ain't no spring chicken, but then neither am I by definition. Her chimaera son should be a college graduate by now, will they address that?
-
make an x-files movie a gritty horror film? are you fucking stupid? most of the intrigue from the x-files show was the fact that it was a suspenseful mind bender full of twists and detective work not a gritty horror.
-
they 'died' in the last episode of their show, which I can not remember [the last ep, not the show] therefore, they are still alive to me. yves del harlow was hot! and anyone remember the episode where the main one [buyers?] got on a plane to stop it from being flown into a world trade centre?
that episode was on a fortnight before 911. -
It was actually the "Lone Gunman" pilot not the X-files proper.
-
I hope they don´t just make it a story that takes place in the 90´s. First of all, it would be a cop out, pointless (since we know the characters are in no real jeopary, a problem with prequels in general), and second of all Anderson and Duchovny don´t look like they did 10 years ago. There are ways for Chris Carter to write himself out of the mess that was the Supersoldier part of the mythology and aliens taking over the FBI. Have Mulder and Scully being forced out from hiding to solve some case. Maybe have a young FBI agent that finds them, so they can help him. From that character a new series could spin-off.
-
They died in the season nine episode named "Jump the Shark." I personally hated the episode. It included characters that I assume were from the spin-off series, but the actors that played them were asstastic. I was pissed, not because they were killed off, but that they were killed off in such a poorly written episode.
-
Rambo 4.....(Sorry SLY) Anything seems possible.
-
I always did like the X-Files and I'm certainly open for more. I'm looking forward to this.
-
This is how it should have looked like:
«THE X-FILES 2 IS FILMING, OMG MY PUNY NERD BRAIN IS EXPLODING!»
What is this laidback crap? It's the X-Files goddamit! Everyone should be having huge nerd erections by now. Huge! What kind of nerd are you if you don't go bananas for X-Files news? -
Scully & Moulder will finally venerate all of the wierd nutcases who banter back and forth about the 'expolsions' that brought down WTC 7. It was the cigarette smoking man! He planted the bombs for Bush!!!
-
one would assume. X-files movie and Reign of Fire are the only decent things he's ever done - but man were his X-files eppys not the best of the bunch.
-
Bad Blood (with Luke Wilson)
How the Ghosts Stole Christmas
and Arcadia (where they pose as the married couple 'The Peetris' are all great. Hope they add some of that stuff to the movie. -
The kind of nerd who saw the last season of X-Files?
-
... every nerd with respect for himself saw the last seasons, and to be honest, they weren't all that bad (if you ignore the mythology episodes).
-
As soon as they moved to LA, the show was just never the same. They got greedy with the first film - they should have given the show a proper ending when Mulder was finally abducted, and skipped that whole baby thing. They should have made the first movie be the 'search for Mulder' and made 2 sequels out of that. I can't imagine that Scully and Mulder are still working the X-Files now, especially since it was all shut down and they were on the run in the final episode. The problem is - a monster movie would have only worked while the X-Files was still active. Now it just seems pointless. And the conspiracy was run into the ground. So either way, they're screwed. I hope they can find a way to resurrect it that makes sense - I like the idea of Mulder being a spook and Scully totally out of the game and something happens to pull them together again. But they better put their best writing effort into this one.
