Chris Carter still hasn’t come up with a title for his movie sequel to the popular X-Files series. While he refuses to divulge any information about the plot, he has announced that he has dumped the conspiracy theory that kept fans glued to their sets for the better part of a decade.

“There’s a whole audience I want to introduce X-Files to,” Carter says. “There were kids who couldn’t watch it on TV because it was too scary. Now they’re in college. I wanted a movie that everyone could go to.”

I have to admit that I enjoyed the show’s stand-alone episodes better than the main theme because they centered on paranormal subjects such as ghosts, curses, cults, etc. And, I enjoyed the interaction between Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny. They had an outstanding chemistry. If and when this movie ever comes out, I’ll be curious to see it. I may even take my boys, who were infants when the X-Files premiered.

Blair Butler of the G4TV network says the film could benefit from an ironic twist: the Writers Guild strike. She feels that it might be “comfort food” for the people who enjoyed the original show and are now forced to watch reruns of their now-favorite shows. Hopefully, the X-Files hasn’t fallen too far off the radar. But if it has, and the movie is good, the X-Files could receive a welcome comeback.
