X FILES 3, STRAIGHT TO DVD?
1870 Signatures - Sign the XF3 Petition
Rumors are circulating that an X Files 3 might well be on the cards, but it would be straight to DVD.
My whole intention with this blog is to see the X Files back on the big screen, regardless of budget size, and not straight to DVD. I think Mulder and Scully have a lot of potential on the big screen.
So I am happy to see that Frank Spotnitz, the producer of 'I Want To Believe' debunking this rumor on his blog.

NUMBERS AND FREEBIES
1590 Signatures - Sign the XF3 Petition!!!
I see I Want To Believe is up to $51´000´000 on a $30´000´000 budget. Not bad. Imagine the potential with proper marketing and a better release date.
Otherwise, I was tipped off to this the other day. It´s pretty scandelous if you ask me.
Whats more, whats person would rather watch a movie this way, than on DVD or in the cinema?
Its a crazy crazy world.

IRISH INTERVIEWS
1347 Signatures - Sign the XF3 Petition!!!
I can't believe people didn't like the Simpsons, X Files crossover idea. Don't you even think it would work as a stand alone affair? I think it would be great.
Anyway, here's a couple of very good interviews with the X Files crew from a new movie website in my hometown of Dublin, Ireland.
Chris Carter and Frank Spotnitz
David Duchovny

BEST IDEA EVER
1076 Signatures - Sign the XF3 Petition!!!
From IMDB news today. This is a great idea...
The X-Files star David Duchovny has long campaigned for writers of the hit show to create an episode featuring animated characters from The Simpsons.
The actor and his co-star Gillian Anderson loaned their voices to the cartoon series for an X-Files-themed guest appearance in 1997.
And Duchovny is convinced that writers on the sci-fi show should have reciprocated and given the Simpson family a cameo role.
He says, "The Simpsons should have come on our show. I had an idea around the seventh or eighth year and thought we should try a (1988 movie) Roger Rabbit-style episode, where they crossed real folk and animation.
"We could do Homer comes to the FBI and deals with cartoon characters. I still feel it's a good idea."
What do you think?

BETWEEN THE LINES

David Cox in the UKs Guardian newspaper has written this excellent piece about 'I Want To Believe'. Read on...
Why the new X-Files film is the most convincing Christian propaganda in years.
The new X-Files spin-off isn't just a failed attempt to revive a dated franchise. It's a brilliant and compelling tract for our times...

NUMBERS
688 Signatures - Sign the X Files 3 Petition!!!
Just looking over the numbers, thats is the box office for ´I Want To Believe´, and it seems the film has broken even on its second weekend on release. That´s including US and international box office.
The film was made for $30 million, and has just hit that mark according to this website.
So I would presume it will turn over a tidy little profit in the end when DVD sales come into the equation.
If you consider with a glass-is-half-full perspective, that doesn´t seem too bad at all.
Another thing which I find interesting is how an awful lot of people still don´t even know about the film. I mentioned the film to a few people here in Germany who claim to be fans of the series and they didn´t even seem to know about the films existance.
Strange.
