That's What I Like!

Hey all hows it going?


Haven't blogged for a while now, sorry about that I've had a busy month, what with my nephews birthday, scrambling in work and a wedding it's been nothing but fun! Got a few things running through my mind right now, first let's start off with the new X-Files movie!

If you'd said to me this time last year they'd actually go through with a new X-Files movie I would have said "You're crazy!" But here we are a year later and on the 1st August we look to be blasting through the paranormal and back into the life of my fave film couple Mulder and Scully.

It feels like its been forever since the days of Mulder and Scully, I remember growing up and watching them, they always gave me that extra edge that you don't normally get from T.V shows, that certain extra realism - perhaps because they played with something that could be a possibly conceivable under the right circumstances and given time.

I have now the complete season set on VHS (wounded now though I wished I'd brought them on DVD) Anyway, I felt like breaking them out not so long ago, replaying some of my fave episodes namely "William," "This is not happening" and "The end" I've chosen season 8 and 9 as my favourite seasons, though I say that through possibly gritted teeth, I LOVED season one and two the most, but I found they didn't get the extra umph until way too late in the season 7/8 seasons.

After X-Files, Fight The Future, I was left with a lot of unanswered questions, I felt the movie somewhat played off the fact that it needed to set up a storyline for the next season and that bringing the movie in at that point was just a stab in the back for many X-Files fans. It was TOO early, the movie needed to come about around the end of season 7 with Mulder's departure imminent, the films storyline would have had a greater effect on the casting audience.

Though this new film X-Files: I Want To Believe promises to be a far cry better than Fight The Future, I saw the trailer yesterday and have replayed it today for the folks, we all thought Billy Connolly - nah it's gonna be a comedy surely. But not from the outlook on the trailer:



I have to say I was VERY impressed by that trailer, even more so impressed by that trailer than I was of the POTC AWE trailer (which by the way rocked!) The films outlook is positive, keeping true to the Mulder and Scully fashion although not dealing with aliens, the rumors circulate and we'll see what transpires for the all time greatest couple Mulder and Scully, with Billy Connolly (personally my hero) on board for the ride, I'd have to say August 1st when I go watch it with my mate, can't come quick enough!

Other things going through my mind right now (apart from movies?) Nothing really, I've had a few ups and downs recently, but I didn't come on here to waste my troubles away into you people. It's late and I really am too high on the X-files movie to talk about anything else!

Take care all xx
