Count me in for the X-Phile edition! I can't wait to see this again.

[Matrix_Fan]

Did this movie really need an 3 Disc Ultimate Edition?

I'd rather have one for the first movie than this one.

[sshuttari]

wait they have an extended cut of this film... But not for Blu-Ray

wtf...

even if you didn't enjoy the movie. At this point if your going to do an extended version and not have it out for blu-ray as well it's stupid.

ughhh...

[Tornado]

They're releasing it in Blu-ray too:

The art is the same as the second I posted above. Sorry, I rarely even look at the Blu-ray stuff because it doesn't apply to me.

And don't thread crap Matrix, you didn't see me going into the Speed Racer DVD thread and posting something negative in there.

[Matrix_Fan]

You really should. All threads have at least one thing negative in them. Not everyone thought X-Files Dos was good.

I'm voicing my opinion. It's not hurting anybody. I'm not calling anyone idiots for liking it or anything. You liked it, that's great, do I think you're a moron? No. You just had different expectations than I did.

All I'm really asking is why a film that was a critical and commercial flop is getting the star dvd/blu-ray treatment like it was some Blockbuster success?

[Tornado]

If you want to speak negatively of the film, do so in the review thread or the general thread; the DVD threads are clearly there for fans of the film.

And it deserves two discs (the third is the digital copy, which I've never seen the point of) because this could quite possibly serve as the end cap to a mythology spanning over 200 episodes and another feature film.

[sshuttari]

alright cool thanks, I'm glad the Blu-ray has the extended cut as well.

[Sculder]

I`m the lonely fan who actually liked the movie :) and will get the DVD

[sshuttari]

I liked the film as well, even a 2 hour version episode is worth my 5 bucks in theatres.

[chaotic]

I was a fan of the show when i was little. I still havent seen the first movie and i missed this. Ill blind both of Blu-ray.

holy **** really? wheres that rule at? cause then i got a lot of people to report to frizzo for speaking negatively on a dvd review thread. This is just unbelievable that people would speak their minds about a dvd.

I think im going to **** myself im so angry about that, How dare you matrix!

[Matrix_Fan]

And don't thread crap Matrix, you didn't see me going into the Speed Racer DVD thread and posting something negative in there.

And you don't see me *****ing and moaning when you badmouth it.

[Tornado]

You two are ridiculous.

[Darth Maul]

yes we are and you're just a sweetheart :)

[sshuttari]

I kind of agree with Tornado, There's no point of bashing a film that you didn't enjoy in the DVD section of it. That is actually left for the fans like us who enjoyed the film and waiting for the DVD itself.

[Matrix_Fan]

Okay, I'll drop this soon. But I just want to make sure if I have this straight.

I can rag on a movie before it comes out on the Movies Coming Soon threads.
I can rag on a movie after I see it on the Review Threads.
However......
When it's featured in an upcoming DVD thread, I can't rag on it?

Just seeing if I got that right.

[JBond]

It's not a rule, but it's kind of in poor taste to do so.

Though to be fair, your negative comment was based on the movie getting a 3-disc treatment which is semi-relative. Comparing that to the people who like to jump into a DVD thread and say "Why would anyone buy this piece of ****?", it wasn't so bad.

[Tornado]

Yeah, but they both hate the movie. I don't even know why they came in here in the first place other than to stir **** up.

[Cartagia]

Is it an actual extended cut, or are there just bonus scenes and the like? Because I didn't think the press release read like it was an extended cut. It seems more to be the deleted scenes.

[halo7]

Guys, guys, lets all calm down. Both movies sucked. All is equal.

[Tornado]

Bah.

ya that looks stirring **** up


oh man the xfiles movie is retarded and anyone who liked it is a ****ing moron! boooooooo

that sounds more like stirring **** up

[halo7]

Bah.

Check mate. ;)

[Tornado]

ya that looks stirring **** up

But this thread has devolved almost solely into bickering. While it's largely both of our faults, that's exactly what's stirring **** up is.

Check mate. ;)

:funny: The fact you put a space in there is hilarious.

I use to have it as my wallpaper few years back.

[CitizenSteel]

they really should've continued the whole alien conspiracy stuff with scully's baby son. instead of giving me this phycic run around crap. Bringing back Skinner and the smoking guy would've been a true X-files flick.

"Chris Carter said that if I Want to Believe proved successful, he would propose that a third movie go back to the TV-series' mythology and focus on the alien invasion foretold within the series, due to occur on December 22, 2012"

see thats dumb, that should've done that with "I want to believe".

[Tornado]

Well, they did bring back Skinner, and CGB Spender is dead. So... no, they shouldn't have brought Spender back.
