`X-Files' movie title is out there: `I Want to Believe'
`X-Files' movie title is out there: `I Want to Believe'

By DAVID GERMAIN – 3 hours ago


LOS ANGELES (AP) — The truth is finally out there about the new "X-Files" movie title.

The second big-screen spinoff of the paranormal TV adventure will be called "The X-Files: I Want to Believe," Chris Carter, the series' creator and the movie's director and co-writer, told The Associated Press.

Distributor 20th Century Fox signed off on the title Wednesday.

The title is a familiar phrase for fans of the series that starred David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as FBI agents chasing after aliens and supernatural happenings. "I Want to Believe" was the slogan on a poster Duchovny's UFO-obsessed agent Fox Mulder had hanging in the cluttered basement office where he and Anderson's Dana Scully worked.

"It's a natural title," Carter said in a telephone interview Tuesday during a break from editing the film. "It's a story that involves the difficulties in mediating faith and science. `I Want to Believe.' It really does suggest Mulder's struggle with his faith."

3. I was a huge X-Files fan for years. Until I realized that after pretty much every episode...
...they get amnesia about what happened in the previous episode, neither referring to the spectacular things which happened to them so that their characters generally remained static*.

*Unless, of course it was a season cliffhanger or movie.

  What they SHOULD have titled it is: "X-Files: These characters will develop, we swear!"

  I'd go see that.

4. My oldest son is now avidly watching "X-Files" reruns, and I'm revisiting
...the series for the first time in awhile. What's startling is how completely, grimly accurate the series was/is about what our government's become...

I hope the movie takes on the "present moment" as well...!
