The Post-Modern Prometheus (X-Files spoilers)

[personal profile] kaijinscendre 2015-09-11 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
I usually wait a while before posting about X-Files but I know an anon mentioned this episode was their favorite. HOLY CRAP! I can see why. This might be my favorite episode. At least in the top 5.

First off the music and sound design is fantastic. I love all the overdone lightning strikes. I love all the Cher music. The use of black and white is great.

I love how after Mulder and Scully looked after they got drugged. They just looked so done with this whole thing. And how they played off each other.

I love how the townspeople reacted to Mulder with the two news stories. I loved the actor playing the scientist (John O'Hurley?).

I knew it would end with the monster being intelligent but DAMN IT WAS AWESOME. I love the people and the animals. I love the ending. I love that that they went and saw "Cher". I am so glad that there was a happy ending even though it was completely uncharacteristic. This is a fever dream of an episode. I FUCKING LOVE IT.

It's such a weird episode - I think fever dream is absolutely the right description.

I'm honestly kind of meh on most of the episode, but then you get to the end and it's just fucking unstoppable. It's such a weird, brilliant, perfect ending. It just fucking transcends everything. Mulder and Scully dancing together is just fucking beautiful. It just is.

IT WAS! When he held his hand out for her, I about teared up.

It is a great episode. I need to watch it again because I remember really enjoying it but I can't recall many details.

I think I remember hearing Cher say she wished after the fact thet she'd agreed to do a cameo (they used a Stunt Cher you only see from behind).

I know! It's such a weird episode in many ways but somehow it really works. And like the other anon, the ending always tears me up, too.
