You just reminded me just how very much I adore Scully. Yes. YES YES YES. To everything said about her.

X-Files was a ritual at my house. I watched it every week with my dad, and we would sit on the floor in the living room and eat dinner together and watch it - usually Chinese take out or egg salad sandwiches and Ramen noodles, and we would talk about it every week, and we had running jokes about how it was ALWAYS raining (because of Vancouver, I suspect) and we would get indignant together when there were to be continued episodes.

I wish I could fly home and go see this movie with him, even if it turns out to be crappy.

Great essay! Thanks for the link.

Yes. So much yes to the love of Scully, who is strong and true to herself.

I feel like I need to make an old-school X-Files icon for myself just for this comment. But I'm at work, so I have no software.

My friends and I happened across XF because we had admired Duchovny in Kalifornia a few weeks previously and I, reading Us at the store, saw he was going to be in a new series. That first season was one of evangelism for us, sitting people down and making them watch it with us. I remember how excited I was when I saw a newspaper article about it during the second season, and when there was an article in TV Guide, and when Anderson and Duchovny were on the *cover* of TV Guide....

And now my excitement has diminished such that I doubt I'm going to see the second movie in theatres. I just spoiled myself by reading a review on my flist, and I don't care. Gah. I wish I could be excited about it, but I can't. But I'm dying to hear your take on it.
