X-Files

THAT’S HOW IT ENDS?

Sure my watching trailed off with the addition of the dull monotonous baritone of Robert Patrick’s Doggett. Whose didn’t? And yes I stopped watching altogether once it was a choice between Alias and the vacuous Monica Reyes, I mean - really, talk about a no-brainer.

But I always assumed that one day, years from then, I would tune in to Fox, catching those last episodes in syndication and be satisfied that it all came to a good end.

No such luck.

Obviously learning nothing from Jerry Seinfeld’s folly, Chris Carter chooses a flashback sham trial to end the series? Then sentences Mulder to death? AND kills the cigarette smoking man? Not to mention the geek Trio (suddenly Jonathan, Warren and Andrew make a little more sense) all bite it at the same time?

For shame. Shame. Shame. Shame. Shame. Shame.

Not that I won’t plunk down the 20 dollars to go see the movie on December 22, 2012. But still.

That sucked.

    You don’t know that iocaste. Did you actually see Old Yeller die? I think not.

    OK, Shane did NOT die. He rides off into the sunset with the little boy calling “Shane!” “Shane!”

    But John Wayne did shoot Liberty Valance.

    He rides off into the sunset, yes. But isn’t he very seriously wounded?

    Shane dies. Jesus dies.

    No, I don’t believe Shane was very seriously wounded. Only emotionally. Trust me; I had to watch that movie one million times for a film class.
