LOL, hey, we don't have to disagree - I rather disliked the plot, as I said in my initial review. Watching it a second time didn't change that fact, but made it easier to ignore in favour of all the awesome Mulder/Scully moments. We shippers cling to what we can get (a skill well honed over YEARS of clinging to tiny moments), and we just got TONS of awesome in this one. So. ;)
Gillian's hair > all, trufax.
List of contacts: in-joke! Not Gillian, but Gilligan, as in Vince Gilligan - writer of some of the best XF episodes ever (like Small Potatoes, if that means anything). The name below Scully's is Shiban - another XF writer. I did remember thinking after seeing the film the second time that Mulder's cell phone contact list was awfully sparse. G to S right away? Man. Loser. ;)
Naw, it's okay. It was just my attempt to be all restrained and OBJECTIVE before I exploded in flail over the kissing and spooning. ;)
You looked away for a second?! NO! Although, understandable. Gillian wasn't onscreen. ;) And Mulder HAD friends - the Lone Gunmen. But they're all dead now, or something. (Bah.)
Funny thing I just thought about - clearly in the six years since the end of the series, Mulder and Scully have made no new friends. And only have each other. That's kind of adorable, in a really... sad way. ;)
I totally agree. Especially of the capslock variety. ;)
Awww. Being a completely crazy X-Phile for almost ten years (and ESPECIALLY crazy for close to four years, at the height of the show's awesome) kept me interested a LITTLE bit beyond Gillian. Though maybe not by TOO much... ;)
but i totally agree about gillian's hair ;)
ooh question.. did mulder's list of contacts on his cell phone include the name gillian?
