I just went to my "bad dreams prevention" and 1) read your blog, 2) read some XF fanfiction, and 3) watched some MSR videos on YouTube. The videos with their collection of predominantly physical contact between Mulder and Scully got me thinking. I thought, "Well, physical stuff and emotional dependency -- I can get that in current TV series, too."  So I asked myself what does the Mulder-Scully

I'm sending you this mail on behalf of  the French X-philes community that is quite upset since this morning.  I thought that you should know about this. The French title of the movie "The X-Files: I Want To Believe" has been released today and fans are not happy! They decided to title the film, "The X-Files: Regeneration," which is completely ridiculous, total nonsense -- and a mistake. The

I had the pleasure of meeting you and Chris at the New York ComicCon, but I wasn't really able to thank you.  So I'm doing that now.  Thank you for helping to make "The X-Files" such an amazing show. To this day, I have yet to really pinpoint the reasons that I love the show so much, but it has been a huge part of my life for over ten years now and I probably wouldn't be where I am today without

Frank, thank you for the new trailer. It's finally online and it's great! Even though a lot of X-Philes wanted more new stuff and more pics of Mulder and Scully. I think it is the right trailer to attract a whole new audience (rated PG-13). The kids out there weren't even born when "X-Files" aired in 1993 (OK, I'm feeling pretty old right now :-)) and started on a journey with an unknown

Don't know if you have time... but, if you have a moment, and need a good laugh... go to Idealist's Haven Forums, and look in the X Files Discussion:Cherish the Past folder, and look at the May 10th POTD thread.. Motivation... "X-Files" style!!!  Some pretty funny stuff that I'd hope you'd appreciate and might make for a nice, humorous break in an otherwise hectic, busy day.  I got a good chuckle

From the "Pilot" to "The Truth," I was a great "X-Files" fan. I still am. They mytharc always captivated me (even when it became convoluted) and Scully and Mulder are unquestionably two of my all-time favorite characters. So, naturally, I'm thrilled that Chris Carter and you are producing "The X-Files: I Want To Believe." I can't wait for July 25! In the meantime, I've been reading the interviews

An eagle-eyed fan spotted two little viral ads of Mulder and Scully talking about what they "miss" about each other on aintitcool.com. I must say -- they're BRILLIANT! They've got the whole fan community talking and dissecting. I'm so glad to see "The X-Files" utilizing the internet again and leaving little treasures for fans to find. I can't wait for the trailer, and I'm getting a huge kick out

Frank, thanks for the blog, and for listening to the fans! Last summer, when I took a road trip east to visit some friends, I hauled along my collection of XF DVDs (all nine seasons). While I was in Fort Wayne, IN, visiting a college friend, we had a little XF marathon, watching the first half of season one. Back in the day, he’d been a casual viewer, and there were many episodes he missed over

I was reading your blog with some fan stories and felt compelled to send you an e-mail just expressing my gratitude towards you and the rest of the "X-Files" team. The show has had a major impact on my life, beyond what I could ever imagine a TV show could. That is what is so unique about "The X-Files" -- I feel it engages with people on a very personal emotional level. I started watching the

This isn't a question, but I just had something I wanted to share with you. When I was younger, my father was a huge fan of the show. One night, he allowed me to stay up late and watch an episode of it with him, which in all honesty, was a terrible idea on his part because I literally wound up having nightmares for three years afterwards. (That episode was "Firewalker," if you're curious). After

Since '94 to the present (I'm 24), on an almost daily basis, I have been profoundly, utterly happy whenever thinking of "The X-Files." I watch a frame of the show and am instantly transported to heaven. I will be forever grateful to you and everyone involved in making the show. From the depths of my soul, Thank you!!!

If you would so indulge me, I'd like to tell you a story.  I've tried to keep it as condensed as possible. Once upon a time, there was this girl.  She had just graduated from high school and was very uncertain of how her life was going to pan out.  You see, this girl suffered from social anxiety.  So much that she couldn't even call and order a pizza because it meant she had to talk to a

I recently went to New York City for a business trip and conveniently also found the time to visit the ComicCon, which was wonderful since you gave us so much of your time and were so patient and friendly throughout the whole autograph signing and the Q&A session. And back home I now just remembered your and Chris Carter’s words that you sometimes asked yourselves whether it was all worth it. And

OK, so I'm one more crazy Russian fan. )))) I decided to drop you a line to say thank you for your amazing work on "The X-Files." I grew up watching this show, now I'm 21 and I still love it. Loveitloveitloveitloveit ))))))))))))))) Thank you for making the second movie -- I can't tell you what it means to us, to  fans all over the world.  We're still out there, and we're not going anywhere. ))))

I just wanted to let you know that all Europe is expecting the "X-Files" sequel and in France as much as anywhere else! We can't wait to see the movie! It will only be released here July 30, so I'm travelling all across France and Belgium to see it in Germany on July 24! But afterward, most of the French fans will gather in Paris for our national release. We will have a huge reunion and I wanted

Again... here is a German fan. :-) First of all, I wanted to say how happy we are here in Germany about "The X-Files: I Want To Believe." It's like a dream come true... finally, after all these years. Let's say, "We never gave up on a miracle!" ;-) My question is, are there any plans to stop by in Germany while doing promotion for XF2, or maybe plans to have the European premiere over here? We

As you know, the "X-Files" movie will be released in Japan on Nov 8. 20th Century Fox has invited public participation in naming the sequel's title in this country. Of course, the movie has a title already, "I Want To Believe." Do you know about this? Maybe the movie will have a different title in Japan. I would like to know what you think about this. Zaimoku Japan Thanks for bringing this

As Manuela from Berlin wrote, the German X-Philes are making their own promotion. ;-) In Cologne, we had a very funny X-Philes meet-up. We recognized one other from the German community and saw each other face to face for the first time. It was really funny. And we were at FedCon, the biggest SciFi Convention in Europe, in Bonn. Everyone asked us about the second movie. At the moment, we're

I'm afraid my e-mail won't be something new to you because I'm sure you have already read SOOO many ones like it. But not from me :)))) That's why I'm feeling like I have to send it, so that you know there's one more person appreciating every huge and every tiny thing you and Chris do for us and for "The X-Files!"

First of all, I want to say thank you for the support you've given the German fans (because of the debacle with the German dubbing voice of Mulder). At this moment, we don't really know if we will be hearing our beloved Benjamin Völz as the German voice of Mulder. But we're doing everything we can. We are fighting and maybe there is hope. ;-) Here in Germany, we've heard that 20th Century Fox

I know this is premature, but I wanted to ask you, Chris, and Fox to put as many cut scenes, moments, etc. into the DVD "extras" section as you can!  I wish XF2 could be three hours!  I've waited so long to see these characters again, and I want as much of them as I can get.  Saying that, I realize you have strong time constraints -- so, anything you have to take out of the movie, just put in on

I am a big fan of "Night Stalker." It was a really good series. I hope there is a possibility of a TV movie. I have the DVD, but I would like to see Stuart and Gabrielle playing those characters again. Lisa Puerto Rico

There is so much I want to say to you, Frank, but I will try to keep it short. I don’t know if you will ever be able to grasp the impact your work on "The X-Files" has had on my -- and many others' -- life. And to now see your dedication and love for the film and the characters only increases our excitement and devotion. Chris Carter’s and your comments in interviews are always so reassuring, and

As a reader and a writer, "The X-Files" means so much to me beacuse I understand it as a story. For me watching the show was (and still is) like reading the most delicious book. It's a pleasure.
