Do You Still Believe? X-Files 3 May go Straight to DVD

Really? The Powers That Be are actually considering a third installment in the “X-Files” franchise, despite the beating the second film took at the box office? Apparently so. Or at least, according to some guy who knows some guy, who wrote in to Dread Central telling them about it. As DC states, I think this is just wishful thinking, especially considering how awful “X-Files 2: I Want to Believe” did. Seriously, really? A sequel to a sequel that no one wanted in the first place, and those who got it didn’t even liked it? Wow.

Anyways, here’s that email someone sent to Dread Central:

“I understand – there was room for improvement … and there still might be. I work for Screaming Death Monkey and Spotnitz – the TERRIFIC Frank Spotnitz – told us this week that the team have already spoken about the next X-Files film. It’s likely the next release will go direct to DVD – but they’re working on the assumption they’ll have a similar budget.”

Hey, Chris Carter, maybe next time you should learn to SHARE your movie with the public, instead of, you know, being anal-retentive about everything, including your movie’s PLOT SYNOPSIS — yeah, you know, that thing that tells people what your movie is about? Also, don’t go around the Internet leaking fake stuff to mess with people, genius. It just pisses us off.
