   Go read the threads about The X-Files 2 on movie forums.  You know, the   
   sort of forums that average people use, not just hardcore X-Files fans   
   who own all the shows on DVD.   
      
   There's about a 5 page thread on it at the forum at dvdtimes.co.uk,   
   start there.   
      
   ............. and most people said the same things as me - people are   
   surprised that the thing has been greenlighted so long after the show   
   was cancelled, and people are saying that the publicists have got their   
   work set out for them if this movie is going to have any kind of impact   
   at the box office.   
      
      
      
   PS : As for your $100 million thing - the 1998 movie made around $190   
   million world-wide, I imagine that the sequel will be hard pressed to do   
   50% of that just in North America, ten years after the show's popularity   
   was at it's zenith.   
      
   Hey - it could happen, that'd be great.  But don't count your chickens   
   before they've hatched.
