I'm really very excited. I never imagined we'd get another movie, or any other screen time of any sort, really, and knowing that we will AND that it's sounding like a standalone story instead of heavy-handed alien-plot is extra cool. :-)
I . . . didn't know I could be this excited. I thought XF had burned me too badly. Apparently not! I never thought we'd actually get a new movie either. It's pretty awesome that we're going to. And I'm REALLY excited that it's going to be a standalone story. They were always better at those anyway and it will work better for new viewers.
Oh geez, your ICON. Ow. That hurts. That was one of the best scenes ever.
X-Files was the first fandom in which I read fanfic, although at the time I wasn't participating in fandom at all. I read SO MUCH FIC. I printed out so much fic and read it over and over again, until the pages were crumpled and sad. I loved that show so, so much, and I still re-watch episodes when the SciFi channel plays one-day marathons. Even the less than stellar episodes.
I think I'm still in shock that there's going to be another movie! It doesn't seem possible.
It was the first fandom I was really aware of as such; I was mostly a lurker and I didn't read a whole lot of fic back then, but I was fairly aware of what was going on in the fandom. I LOVED that show. It was a hard core fannish obsession for six years before I ever really started actively participating any fandom. (My first truly active fandom was BtVS). I still watch it too. I have the first seven seasons on dvd and sometimes I like to pretend that the last two didn't happen, so I don't own them, but I will watch them when they come on tv. I'm totally in shock that there's going to be another movie! And I'm way more thrilled than I thought I would be,
