I remember watching Charlie and the Chocolate factory and my girlfriend having a panic attack because all the oompa loompas were the creepy Indian dude on the trolly and she had recurring nightmares for years about it. Great show.

That was actually a really good movie and had better production and was truer to the book than the old one. All the nostalgic people who whine about it are idiots and have no taste.

Wicker Man posted:"Just like him!" (Mulder is posing on a doorstep)  Yeah. There are really too many great episodes to even list, but most that come to mind were already mentioned. The mytharc episodes are pretty fun too even after they get completely ridiculous. FizFashizzle posted:Remember how great the movies were? Fight the Future legitimately owned, dunno about the second one.

nope nope A lot of X-Files is cheesier than people remember, but Jose Chung's From Outer Space is one of the greatest episodes of any tv show, It's a perfect encapsulation of the entire series and just a triumph of sci-fi storytelling. a story about stories.

well i really like the antarctica one where they are all like "WE'RE NOT WHO WE ARE" which is great to say just in general when someone is already confused about something you said and demands a further explanation. also kitsunegari was pretty good imho in fact any episode in which the main characters are personally targeted is great. i can't remember a lot of them but definitely aliens are cool and also a great one was the field where i died which featured the civil war thing and an old poem. i stopped watching around season seven when it became unbearably uninteresting without mulder. scully alone could not make up for the insufferable cretin who replaced mulder.

Jose Chung's From Outer Space is good, but Dreamland(the one with Michael McKean) is probably the best.

cis white male posted:nope nope Yes, as soon as X-Files came up on Netflix I watched that episode, then showed it to my girlfriend and I still watch it once in a while. I'm sure it's partly nostalgia but it's also a good episode. I used to watch the show and record it for my dad then watch it again with him but Jose Chung's From Outer Space is one of the only episodes I remembered vividly(even before watching it a bunch on Netflix).

What was the episode name of the guy who could fit through any gap? And the pyromaniac assassin episode was pretty cool. I was most scarred by the invisible boogeyman episode of The Outer Limits 90's series as a child.

I was most scarred by the invisible boogeyman episode of The Outer Limits 90's series as a child. It was a pretty clever two-parter. He got away in the first episode and later on in the season they track him down. First one was "Squeeze" and the second was "Toombs" It's weird. I dropped over to my brother to borrow the boxed set I got him for his birthday a few years back and kept meaning to dig into since. The thread finally got me going again. I have not watched it since it aired except for a few re-runs. Watched "Squeeze" earlier and about to watch Toombs. The show still stands up pretty good I have to say. The one with the fire starter is called "Fire" it's in season 1. It has the "Oirish lawyer" from Battlestar Galactica in it. There is a serious "before they were known" vibe to half the guests.

She is still terrified an Indian dude is going to crawl all up inside her guts and wreck the place her up. I just want her to be happy and meet the right guy (to mess her guts up) For the record, I gotta go with "Triangle" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_%28The_X-Files%29 Lonos Oboe fucked around with this message at 23:43 on Sep 22, 2014 |

Don Mega posted:x files made me scared to poop because I thought that monster was going to crawl out and grab me Yo this is legit I was a real young kid like 6 or 7 and my parents did not give a poo poo about what I watched on TV and both toilets and vents (because of Tooms) scared the hell out of me when I was alone or at night. kazoosandthings posted:That is the one where he gets the liver nest goop on his hand and delivers the classic line: "Is there any way I can get this off without betraying my cool exterior?" Tooms and Squeeze (one of the few recurring non-mytharc villains)! gently caress Eugene Tooms that terrifying liver eating mutant. But seriously. Jose Chung's, Small Potatoes, the one with the vampires in the Hick town (EDIT: Bad Blood! The one everyone else is talking about!), the Unnatural (the baseball one).

"Jose Chung's From Outer Space" earned a Nielsen household rating of 10.5, being watched by 16.08 million people in its initial broadcast, and also received praise from critics. Hit shows now are lucky to break 3 million

Yo, another good one was Lazarus Bowl. It was another of the high concept episodes where a writer was following Mulder and Scully around to get material for a movie while they investigated people coming back from the dead and what. It was pretty neat. Also the episode where Bryan Cranston had to drive west or his head would explode was a good one. And the episode where they were in Florida and people were being killed by invisible monsters that were the conquistadors who had actually found the Fountain of Youth. I haven't watched an episode of this show since Mulder went away and I still remember like half the episode concepts for some reason.
