I was encouraged to read Tom Rothman's remarks as well. I anticipated the studio would wait until after the release of the DVD to make any decision regarding a third movie, but I will let you know if we end up having any news before then.
This is what he is commenting on...

"X-Files : I Want to Believe" didn't make much of a dint at the box office - probably just as well it didn't cost an arm-and-a-leg to make.
FOX chairman Tom Rothman told IESB today that, despite the lackluster performance of the latter, there's still the possibility of another - and he's leaving it up to the cast and crew as to whether they'd like to see that happen.
‘'It's really up to Chris , David and Gillian ", Rothman tells the site.
In addition, Rothman says new "Die Hard", "Independence Day" and "Silver Surfer" movies are also under consideration. You can read what he has to say about all those projects - and more - in IESB's exclusive interview.
And it seems Franks blog is important to people other then us!

Yesterday, IESB mentioned that FOX chairman Tom Rothman is up for another "X-Files" movie - so long as the cast and crew are.
Today, Frank Spotnitz, co-writer and producer of this Summer's "X-Files : I Want to Believe", responded to Rothman's claims that the ball is in their court.
"I was encouraged to read Tom Rothman's remarks as well", Spotnitz says in his blog. "I anticipated the studio would wait until after the release of the DVD to make any decision regarding a third movie, but I will let you know if we end up having any news before then."
In other words, if you want to see a third "X-Files" movie it's time to pre-order "I Want to Believe" on DVD - heck, pre-order five copies each of the DVD! The better the film does on DVD, the more likely we'll be to see another movie.
Thanks to 'Sandi'.
I'm totally buying it! And...Xmas is solved for all my friends now :giggle: If they're willing to make another Die Hard & Silver Surfer sequel, they better have another XF in store...actors' willing that is. Funny...usually I'm rather against sequels ;)
I'm definately buying Fight The Future and I Want To Believe on Blu-Ray.
Support the cause, fellow philes!
If they're willing to remake Robocop, then an XF3 should be reasonable.
