Even though the second one flopped at the BO. http://www.xfilesnews.com/index.php...ript-underway&catid=25:recent-news&Itemid=106

I like the X Files but the second X Files movie was really really bad,what were they thinking? It barely felt like a X-Files movie.

 

[Slushy]

As long as its better than I Want To Believe, which was absolute dogsh**!

 

[Octoberist]

wasn't this dubunked. I heard David was misquoted.

 

[spider-neil]

second one was rubbish.

I don't know how many people agree with me but the x-files I really want to see is a feature length version of squeeze/toomes on the big screen. i.e. mulder and skully vs a genetic monster and they use their fbi detective skill to track the monster. totally fed up of the alien angle which bored the **** out of me.

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

2nd was ok, nothing special. Fox really screwed themselves in the ass because they didn't market the film properly. hell, i think the trailer for the movie came out about 3-4 weeks before the film was released, in addition that promos for the film did not really come out until about a week before release

i hope they do make a third and it deals with actual supernatural/extraterrestrial stuff. throw in some horror elements as well. that is what made the X-Files popular in the first place

 

[spider-neil]

the scary x-files episodes are the ones I enjoyed the most.
I would so love to see a R rated x-files horror movie with a monster that the fbi have to track down.

I've always enjoyed the supernatural/horror episodes of the X-Files myself.

My favorite episode of the X-Files was when this demonic insect I think it was posessing people. And only certain people could see it and eventually Mulder saw it himself. It was a great episode, very creepy, and unique too.

Why would it need to be R to be scary though?


IMO, the scariest episodes were in the first five seasons. The later episodes never really impressed.

remember the exocisism episode in season 2 (the scariest x-file ever)? that was rated R

I think thats my favorite episode as well, its the one where Mulder is caught up in an armed siege by a works employee who is the only one who can see that the boss is a giant insect-like creature who has turned some of his co-workers into Zombies. Awesome episode. I did not even bother watching I Want to believe because i heard it was boring as hell...

 

[spider-neil]

if they want to make money then make it accessable to a wider audience.
would the general public rather watch an alien conspiracy or a horror movie that 'happen' to have mulder and skully? genuine question.

 

[Warhammer]

How about that episode with the inbred deformed guy who lived in that shack in the middle of nowhere? It was voted by fans as the scariest episode of X-Files ever and due to complaints, FOX never reran it.

 

[dark_b]

you mean the circus episode?

 

[Warhammer]

It was "Home".

Here's a fan trailer of it:

 

[spider-neil]

thought that epiosode was boring to be honest.

 

[spider-neil]

my favorite opening of all time is when mulder and skully are chasing down a kid. they corner him and pounce, they pin him down and then to skully's surprise mulder pulls out a hammer and stake and then starts staking the kid through the heart. skully looks with horror at mulder, mulder then shows skully the kid's vampire teeth. skully taps at the teeth that come loose (they are fake cheap vampire teeth)

mulder - 'oh shi*'
Que x-files intro music

In this one Mulder need to find that the Scully he's been dealing with isn't the REAL Scully and that the real Scully has been locked up somewhere since season 3.

it worked because you didnt expect it to be funny since it was xfiles.

i was just a kid when x-files first aired. My whole family loved that show. i stayed up every friday night to watch it, even when it gave me nightmares. One of the things i enjoyed about the show was that it wasn't afraid to take a break from all the serious stuff and just make fun of its self. When Mulder left, I stopped watching the show, but I did catch a few episodes here and there, including the season finale.

I enjoyed the first movie, but felt cheated at the same time. It felt more like an extended episode and less like an actual movie experience. I’ve been wanting to catch the second flick, though I don’t know much about it. It seemed like it was a “lost episode” instead of an actual continuation of the series which kind of bothers me.

I actually think a stand alone movie is the way to go. a movie that 'happens' to have mulder and skully, like TDK is like a crime movie that 'happens' to have the batman.

I was thinking how the heck is mulder going to get out of this one. brilliant opening.

Fox squeezed all the life out of that great show, which should have ended long before it did.
And for the life of me I cannot understand why Chris Carter, and for that matter Duchovny and Anderson, felt that the story of the second film was the appropriate celebration of the show after years of being absent and finally returning. Of course, the incompetent marketing of the film too helped destroy a lot of the goodwill of the fans who would have loved to enjoy a true revival of the franchise.

We should not be wondering if a third film could be on the way, it should have been a certainty had those in charge taken the proper steps, and we as fans should have been rejoicing and anticipating, not wondering whether or not another X-files film would be worth it.

What's done is done. It is just very infuriating that many episodes of the show itself felt a lot better than the actual second movie, which should have gotten people excited about the X-files again. Maybe the ideas are not there anymore, and the well is dry.

Big X Files fan. I sorta drifted in and out of watching the show during its original run but I always enjoyed it. I wish I could find a network that still aired it regularly that I have.

As for X-Files 2: I had no problem with the type of story they were trying to tell or the fact that it was stand alone but it was just so dull and uninteresting much of the time.

There were things about it that I liked but even the show did stand alone episodes that were more gripping and clever.
