TV has been a vast wasteland of bad story-telling and bad X Files rip offs, and they're still coming. Just give me the original, and I thank you. If they want to play tricks on me while I'm trying to get more info, fine, I'm willing to play. It was fun a few years ago and it's fun now. And I think the 5,000 other players at wondercon in San Francisco think the same way too. I can't wait.

Who cares if the internet Trolls bash it - i enjoyed the show while growing up (i was 11 or 12 when it debuted, was a huge influence for me in sci-fi tv shows) and i'll enjoy the movie when it comes out. I'm not expecting it to tie up every loose end from the show, or to give any huge insight on anything in particular, i'm just looking for a good cast (which they have) to do a good job acting (which these guys always do) and it will turn out to be a good movie on its own. These are characters you can believe. They're people who (did) see extraordinary things on a regular basis. One wants to believe there's a common thread, the other wants to debunk it and prove it in science. It's not an incredibly big shoe to slip back into and i'm sure that within a few days on set the actors were right back into their roles and comfortable with them to the point that we'll believe (pun intended) their performance. What more can you really ask for in a movie aside from a good story (even on its own and not used to tie off loose ends as they have already said this will be), and good actors performing their parts well. Bash me all you want, say i'm dreaming, that the movie will suck, that you won't be there at all or you'll wait for dvd, just know that nothing you say will sway my opinion, so you might as well direct your negative comments to the brick wall on my left. Thank you and have a good day Trolls. (Remember, XF3: The Troll Hunt opens July 26 on a monitor near you). Man, i’m pumped to see this.

And where's the classic X-Files music? It didn't impress me at all, but being a huge fan of the show I still can't wait to see this film. It came off kind of mellow for X-Files.

Also if the film is nothing more than a longer episode then I will still be thrilled. If they can make and market these for under $50 million and make $100 worldwide and sell a crap load of DVDs, then we should get a new one every few years. If Fox and Carter are smart, that is exactly what they should be aiming for. I find it refreshing that a trailer is put out that doesn’t give away the entire plot.

Christ i really hope the movie doesn't play like one, ive had high hopes for another x-files movie i just hope it feels like the series used to.

They may not have made a ton of money, but the fans of the show still went and saw them, and if you knew a little back story the movies themselves weren't all that bad. Lower budget, for the fans. I've got nothing against this. Now I've got to rewatch some X-Files to remember what the heck was going on at the end of the show. I kinda lost interest once the T-1000 showed up to replace Mulder.

I think the first 5-10 seconds of the theme song, just before the melody kicks in, would have had a better impact. I'll definitely go see it in July! Looks pretty interesting!

Just like tuning in for a fresh, new episode was back in the day. You had no idea what the story was going to be about, but you knew it was going to deliver. The scene with Mulder asking Scully (who looks to be practicing medicine these days) to rejoin with him was a geek goosebumps worthy moment. This looks awesome.
