The Ultimate X-FIles Meme
Thanks for this yendrie, its totally awesome!
1.- How old were you when you started watching the X-Files?
I was 11, and my first episode was the original airing of Beyond The Sea. I was hooked after that!
2.- What year was it?
Ummm....whatever the original air date of BTS was - late '93/early '94?
3.- Which was the first episode you ever watched?
Beyond The Sea. The intensity of Scully's emotions (and Gillian's acting) had me hooked from the get-go.
4.- What season is it in?
Season 1. And if you don't know that, you're obviously not a Phile.
5.- Which season have you not seen yet?
I've seen all of them, numerous times.
6.- Favorite season?
Overall, probably seasons 6-7. Season 5 had some pretty awesome episodes, though.
7.- Least favorite?
Season 9, but mostly because Scully wasn't assigned to the X-Files, and Mulder wasn't there at all until the last episode. But Scully looked insanely sophisticated, stylish, and gorgeous that season. Its my favorite Scully look!
8.- Which season do you not like at all?
There's no season that I hate. They've all got at least 1 good episode, even season 9!
9.- Name 4 episodes that you could watch to death:
- Je Souhaite. Its a really cute episode, Mulder and Scully are officially having the sex by then, and I absolutely ADORE the ending!
- Redux II. So sad, but sooooooo good. The ending had me on the edge of my seat during the original airing!
- Bad Blood. Every Phile agrees with me on that one.
- Honestly, I've watched The Goldberg Variation to death. I really like that episode. Scully's huge grin when Mulder is explaining how Angie the Animal died = priceless.
10.- Name 3 episodes that you dislike:
- Space....BORING!!!!
- Jump The Shark - TLG didn't need to die. That was SO totally pointless!
- The Gift, for the same reasons yendrie yendrie stated. I still hate the fact that Mulder apparently hid his terminal brain disease from Scully. You KNOW he wouldn't have done that.
11. - Mulder or Scully?
Both? But if I had to choose....SCULLYSCULLYSCULLY!!!!!
12.- Shipper or Noromo?
SHIPPER!
13.- Favorite scene/moment?
One that I watch over and over and over? There's more than one. The hallway scene from Amor Fati, the Millenium kiss, the Triangle kiss/punch, the Existance kiss, The Truth kiss in the brig.........
14.- The scene you hated the most?
TLG's death, that one scene where Fowley was in Mulder's apartment and took off her shirt (UGH!)
15.- The scene that made you laugh until you thought you’d piss your pants?
Pretty much all of Mulder/Joanne's scenes from Dreamland I/II made me laugh so hard I thought I'd die! Joanne's "Special TRAMP Dana Scully!" is such a hilarious line...and where she confronts Scully? "You've got a lot of gall coming back here, sister! Do you get some kind of kick out of watching my family fall apart?? HOMEWRECKER!!!"
16.- Most touching scene?
The end of Per Manum makes me teary-eyed almost every time. The foreheading and Mulder's line, "Never give up on a miracle", and then it cuts to Scully in her hospital bed rubbing her pregnant belly....OMG!
And of course, the hallway scenes in FTF and Amor Fati, and the ending scene from both Existance and The Truth.
17.- Favorite quote or piece of dialogue?
"Well, it seems to me that the best relationships - the ones that last - are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship. You know, one day you look at the person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been flicked somewhere. And the person who was just a friend is... suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with."
BEST.....LINE....EVARRRR!
Also, those lines from Amor Fati: "You were my constant, my touchstone." "And you are mine." *dies*
18.- How do you call the show?
Ummmmm....X-Files?
19.- From 1 to 10, what would you give Fight The Future?
10. I know people who never saw an ep of the series and still loved it. I also love the fact that its totally mytharc-based, and that hallway scene *melts*
20.- Do you understand all the Mythology?
After all these years....partially. I'm learning something new about it every day.
21.- How did you feel when you heard that David was leaving the show?
I wasn't a part of the online community then, so I didn't know he was leaving until it actually happened. And I was NOT happy. It just didn't seem like the same show without both Mulder and Scully.
22.- What was your reaction towards John Doggett when he first appeared in season 8?
HATED HIM!!! But now, after several series rewatches, I really do like him.
23.- Did you hate him at any moment?
Originally, yes.
24.- Did you ever consider they could have a relationship?
HELL NO. He was in love with her, but I never thought that she would reciprocate it. She was Mulder's, heart and soul. Although, I do like to read the occasional well-written DSR fanfic.
23.- What was your first impression of Monica Reyes?
Meh. I didn't really feel either way for her, and still really don't. Although, had the series continued beyond season 9, I think I would have liked her. Just not as much as Scully.
24.- Doggett or Reyes?
Doggett. I like the fact that he had a backstory and motivations....Reyes was just a weirdo.
25.- Did you consider the return of Mulder in Season 8 necessary to kept the audience interested in the show?
Yes, I did!
26.- Do you think that Gillian Anderson’s acting in the last 2 seasons managed to kept people interested in the show despite the lack of Mulder?
Gillian's acting is certainly what kept me watching the show.
27.- Did you think the William arc was necessary, or did you consider him part of one of those plot lines that should have never happened?
99% of me says that it wasn't necessary, but it was wonderful. I just wish it hadn't ended the way it did, with Scully having to give him up, and Mulder barely getting to see his son.
28.- Why is that?
Because Scully didn't deserve that kind of torture, after everything that had been done to her!
29.- Were you okay with Scully giving him up in adoption?
HELL NO. I cried so hard at that episode. But, I do understand that it was necessary.
30. Who’s your third favorite character?
Skinner, obviously!
31.- One character you never liked?
Fowley...although I'm glad she was in the show. She was the character everyone loved to hate, and the tension helped further the MSR.
32.- Did you ever think that they would actually make a second movie after so long? What was your reaction when you found out they were really going to make it?
Honestly, I had given up watching the series after the last episode aired. Then, I found out they were making a new movie and pulled out my old DVDs....and quickly fell in love again. I was SO ecstatic that they were making a new movie!
33.- Did you see the movie the day of the premiere?
Yes.
34.- What was your first impression while you were watching it?
A great big HOLY SHIT when I realized Mulder and Scully were living together. And then actually getting to see them in a relationship, and sleeping in the same bed, and that kiss in the end? *brain explodes*
35.- What was your reaction when you were done watching it?
I cried.
36.- Did you watch it again in theaters?
Nope, couldn't afford it :(
37.- Did you buy it or did you downloaded it from a site?
Both!
38.- Did you like the title ‘I Want To Believe’ for the second movie?
Yup!
39.- If you didn’t like it, what else would you have called it?
I liked it!
40.- What has The X-Files meant for your life?
A lot. I still have very fond memories of watching the first few seasons with my best friend...we'd have a sleepover every Friday night just to watch it! I also loved the great love and respect Mulder and Scully had in their relationship. That, to me, is true love.
41.- Do you think it’s the best series you have ever seen?
Ummm...DUH!
42.-Do you want a third movie?
YESSSSSSS.
43.- What would you call it?
Since it will be mytharc-based....maybe Resist or Serve?
44.- Which character would you like to see in the third movie?
A complete resolution and closure to the William storyline. Whether they decide to let him go permanently, or get him back, I want to see that chapter of their lives closed. I would also love to see more cameos from more series characters besides just Skinner.
45.- What would you like this movie to be about?
MYTHARC.....OBVIOUSLY!
46.- Did you enjoy answering all this stuff?
