The documentary files

 

 

I remember a particularly smug "review" of "The X Files" published in some Swedish newspaper during the 00´s. It went something like this: "The creepy pessimistic atmosphere of the X Files, with all the conspiracy theories, may have looked convincing and edgy during the 1990´s. No more". Ahem, the 00´s were arguably *worse* and more conspiratorial than the 1990´s. But whatever. 

I wonder what the idiot optimist who wrote this BS does today? I mean, "The X Files" look like a freakin´ documentary! 

The clips above are from one of the pivotal episodes, "One Son", in which Cancer Man (a.k.a. The Smoker) finally reveals the full extent of the Illuminati-alien conspiracy to agent Mulder...
