Six Phileish Reasons to See The X-Files Movie
1. The last few seasons of the show probably left you bitter. If the movie’s bad, then nothing has changed. If the movie’s good, you’ll gain some sanity back.
2. Play spot the retread. Many of the minor roles are played by actors who have been in multiple XF episodes. How many can you recognize?
3. Find the homage. Scenes reference other XF scenes. Elements reference other genre classics. [Blank] references Krycek—at least I think so.
4. Get the in-joke. Self-explanatory.
5. Scully’s hair is gorgeous.
6. According to this Phile, the movie’s actually good.
