I understand that. We all watch for different things, and it doesn't take intelligence or a lack thereof to be bothered by different things. I have no problem with other people enjoying the film--it just means that X-Files is a lot of things to a lot of people, and this film just didn't happen to capture the stuff I wanted it to. Sometimes, though, I feel insulted by the shortcuts taken in films, though I'm less likely to object if I like other aspects of the film.

It didn't bother me that they were together. What bothered me was that it just didn't "play" right for me. *shrug* That may have just been my attitude going in, you know? It just wasn't XF for me. Which is fine, because we still have the DVDs, right?
