No offense to your post, thanks for sharing...
But I'm just drained of nostalgia and enthusiasm. I grew up with the X-Files. I've seen every single episode of the original run at least three times. I have them all collected, including the movies and two damn spin-off series.
But after a decade of everything being remakes, revivals, ressurections, returns... It's been a rowdy riot of rectal ripping retronostalgic ravaging. I couldn't care less that there's talks about more X-Files. If they actually manage to squeeze more out of this dried up sponge I'll just ignore it.
To the modern media producers all I can say is go choke on your 90's nostalgia.
Everything is a reboot, a remake or whatever spin-off they think will be good enough. There are a lot less original ideas and everything ends up being around a superhero, with a bullshit plot twist.
