Enough denials and misdirections have surrounded the X-Files sequel, I Want to Believe, that I’m wary of reporting much of anything, for caution that it’ll be denied or yanked off the internet at any given moment. There’s a new set of images that have popped online and have been around for long enough for me to want to believe they’re real, and they support some of the things we thought we knew about the movie but had been denied.
The images mostly show the FBI in action. There’s a shot of Mulder and Xzibit working together and a shot of Amanda Peet’s character, moving in a stealthy manner with her pistol drawn. If that isn’t enough of the Feds for you, there’s also a shot of over a dozen men in FBI gear, obviously moving in on something with helicopter support.
The most interesting of the images, however, is the shot to the right of Mulder and Scully enjoying a calm, yet passionate moment. Clearly there is more to their relationship then there was before, regardless of what creator Chris Carter or actor David Duchovny wants to tell the public, unless they want to claim they set up the intimate moment to fool promotional photographers the same way they said they did for trespassing members of the press.
Head over to Film-o-filia to see the FBI in action!

Anyone who watched the last couple of seasons of the X-files is aware that Mulder and Scully were pretty much an item by then, they had a son together for one thing, it's not really a big surprise to fans that there will be some relationship there, when we last saw them they were lying in each other's arms having gone on the run, I dont know why the question about whether they get it on is still going, it's already happened.
I'm tired of seeing headlines along the lines of "Do Mulder and Scully finally get together in the new movie?!" Chris Carter has confirmed that Mulder and Scully did take their relationship to the next level in season 7's "all things" and if season 8's "Existence" did not confirm this, the series finale, "The Truth" did. If "The Truth" did not, Chris Carter spelled it out for those who jumped off the bandwagon in season 6 or 7.
Along with what I believe is a majority of fans, I watched the show through the end of season 8. At that point, there was a considerable drop off. Of season 9, I was only a casual viewer until the finale. But I just want this to be corrected. The promotional picture is just that "promotional." It is intended to stir debates on the nature of Mulder & Scully's relationship NOW. But if they do end up together in the movie, it will not be "finally."
