X-Files revisited, remade...

So they're talking again about making another X-Files movie.
Seems to me they finished off the story, and the last season or two of X-Files left me feeling wounded. It's been so long, can Duchovny and Anderson still become Mulder and Scully? Well, yes, of course, they are actors. But it's hard for me to look at this with optimism, to think of it as anything but exploitation of a franchise. I wonder if Nick Lea would be in it.
If they make another movie... what would they do? With the plot?

There will be Skinner, I think he'll be lifting weights
Even better!
But I can't believe they will be so kind to fans as to include Mulder-pouts and Skinner-muscles.

P.S. Are you sure you aren't confusing this movie with one of our stories?
I do hope they make you head scriptwriter.
Hot threesomes, here I come.
Mulder: Pout.
Skinner: Lift.
Krycek: Smirk.
All: repeat

(Especially if it had all the steamy sex it should have.)

of the 2nd, NL played a strategic (if not too much screen time) character. I have missed the past three weeks so I don't know whether he's still on.

Oh, right. That version wouldn't get filmed, would it? More's the pity!

Date: 2007-07-19 03:20 am (UTC)Oh, yes! The perfect plot. jack/Mulder, yup, works for me. And Scully/Tosh, I think, rather than Scully/Gwen. Very nice.
I don't see why they shouldn't film that version. Just call it an art movie, right? Remember how sexy it was when Scully got her tattoo? They'd just be going a little further than that.
I wrote a Jack/Scully piece the other day for
