Somehow, The X files It is one of the simplest television programs ever done … Sure, mythology on alien conspiracies and government coverings became a little sometimes confused, but the spectators rarely had to unravel whether a certain plot surpasses Forbes Forn. However, two of the best writers in the series were secret that the program driving plot was actually a postmodern way to analyze one of the main characters. In your comments on the X-Files Premiere of season 2, “Little Green Men”, writers Glen Morgan and James Wong revealed that they thought that the aliens of the program symbolized the most internal fears of Fox Mulder.
At that time, this X-Files The episode felt transcendental because it showed us more alien life on screen than before. Mulder Real saw one of the headlines “Little Green Men”, and Wong felt that this moment “was what this whole series is about.” That is because he thought that the program was asking moving questions of the spectators such as “What are your little green men” and “What do you invent in your mind that you are afraid or what do you need to face?”
Now, X-Files It is likely that fans who have seen this episode are confused with this metaphorical analysis because we are actually seeing alien on the screen, and there are no clues that this is a hallucination by Mulder. However, Morgan clarified that he and the coguionist Wong “were trying to work the notion,” was there alone? Is this real? “
Interestingly, the X-Files The writer felt that the crispy philosophical questions of thesis were foreshadowed by Mulder’s admission to Scully who was beginning to doubt that his Saister was kidnapped by aliens. Morgan felt that this could cause the public to ask if the fear of aliens is “in their head” and asked even more: “Do we create children of fear of ourselves?” Hey, also clarified that both he and Wong wanted viewers to consult “the idea that we all have to fight our own green men and continue.”
The most fascinating thing about this idea is that he feels surprisingly ahead of his time … as, in an era after the gold in the world of television, we would surprise us if Ryan Cogler is next X-Files Restart the idea that Mulder could be chasing aliens that exist only in his mind instead of crossing the truth. But for a peculiar gender show of the 90s, the idea that the public cannot trust what the main characters are seeing was almost unthinkable. For example, alone Twin peaks (The Sprooky Sister Show who also had David Duchovny) tried the paranormal rarity found by his own Cruciated FBI agent with complete seriousness.
However, X-Files Fans in their nth replacement of the entire series (it’s not just us, right?) They could enjoy watching the program through the lens of Glen Morgan and James Wong’s own alien conspiracy. Suddenly, we are forced to ask how many of Mulder’s extraterrestrial encounters really happened and how many of them could be manufacture of their internal fears. In addition, Scully is assigned as Mulder’s partner would make more sense … of course, she is there to discredit Mulder’s work, but perhaps the FBI also agrees her there because they are worried that her best agent has lost her village.
Sadly, these two X-Files The writers Ange left the show, and his vision of Mulder fighting the internal demons manifested when Aliens left. However, their comments have completely changed the way we see “Little Green Men” and other early episodes of this pioneering program. Mulder could well be the most reliable narrator on television, and we can’t wait Unravel what you have and have not imagined the aliens in our next compassion session of this seminal show.
