They Call Me Spooky, Spooky Mulder

There's some links (here and here) about X-Files 2 today and what Chris Carter and Frank Spotnitz are saying make me very happy:

This film will pick up six years after the end of the series.  It's supposed to be a standalone feature removed from the alien mythology of the TV show, a throwback to the show's "monster of the week" episodes.  Still, some lingering aspects from the series, like whether Scully's child with be a normal tyke, will be addressed.  "It will not be a mythology movie, but it's true to everything that's come before," says writer-producer Frank Spotnitz.

and

Carter, who also directs the new movie, said it takes place in the present and uses a story envisioned when the series ended. While the show's sprawling alien mythology isn't part of the plot, Carter said there is a reference to Scully's seemingly supernatural son, William, who was born in season eight and later given up for adoption.

So I'm guessing this means Mulder and Scully on the run from the FBI will be addressed as well.  Awesome.  I ask for nothing more (other than the movie kicks ass).

Thanks,
