Not yet, but I'm going to get it on Friday when I get paid. It's in my Amazon shopping basket... Unless I spot it in my local bookshop and save myself a few days of waiting I should get the movie tomorrow in the post

Well once you watch the DVD you have to write something up about the extras (please).

Right now I'm on the fence about getting a BluRay player for the new release of FTF. I mean I already have 2 copies of it on DVD but the BluRay has the blooper kiss and the alternate bee sting kiss (in HD no less).

I am also debating about whether to get a BluRay player for the same reason. I kinda feel strange for wanting one just so I can get FTF, but it's good to know I am not alone! I am even more convinced I should get one now that I know both the blooper kiss and the alternate kiss are on it!

The extras are pretty good.

There are 3 makings of, "You Can Go Home Again", "Misinformation" and "Don't Give Up" which talk about how they felt coming back, how M&S relationship would have evolved, how they made some scenes, the lengths they went to keep it secret, how they brought it to the screen after so many years and how they felt about Wondercon.

There's a bit with Chris Carter called Statements on Green Production where he talks about using biodegradable stuff, hybrid cars and things that they did so not to ruin the environment which is pretty interesting, and nice to hear that they are thinking about these things.

There's a making of about the special effects called Body Parts.

The gag reel! (which I hate to say isn't as funny as the ones on youTube, but still good to have)

A video of Dying 2 Live by Xzibit, which is made up of pictures from the movie.

Still Galleries divided into 4 parts: Collectables, Concept Art, Unit Photography and Story Boards.

And two trailers: Domestic and International.

I just need to watch the movie with the commentary now!


By the way, for anyone in the UK edition has the digital disc even though it's only shown as being 2 discs

Thanks for the info. .
Can't wait to see the making of, I do wonder why they didn't air it on HBO (the movie needed all the publicity it could have gotten).

I haven't ordered the book yet. Not sure if I really have the money to order it just now with Christmas coming up. Might just stick it on my list of ideas for Christmas. Will need to see

Just looked through the book, I really like it . Some interesting BTS stuff and a lot of great pictures.

Very good plan!


I'm going to wait until I've ordered all the Christmas presents I've got left to buy then see how I'm doing money wise and hopefully buy it.

I've been reading the book and wow the things I didn't know about the BTS stuff. Like Glen Morgan writting The Field Where I Died for his girlfriend (the actress that plays Melissa in the episode). I love that there's a little section relating to every episode .

Got my book! It's pretty fab, lots of info as Cindy says, I didn't know about. There's a bit in it when Jerry Hardin said he was asked to go to "some sci-fi shop in Glasgow for a signing" and I sort squeed and went "I was there!" I love all the candid pics as well.

It was rather sad to read all the pressure Gillian was under at the start and she hard a really hard time at the start. When she said that Scully was kind of cocky at the start I'd never noticed but next time I watch it I'm gonna see if she is.

Definitely well worth getting

So I've read trough most of the book but I've noticed something which I think might be a mistake, or else I'm very very wrong.

When they are talking about the end of season 9 and the final scenes it talks about the scene in Scullys bedroom when Mulder and Scully kiss. Then Frank talks about the nurse taking the baby away and it very emotional and David and Gillian stood hugging for 10 minutes etc but wasn't that the end of season 8?? There's no mention of that scene at the end of the season 8 section.

I'm thoroughly confused.

Very cool!


I've still not ordered it yet. Still waiting to see if I have the money spare to get it before Christmas

But I'm glad you guys are enjoying it, even if I am very jealous!

Well I have now ordered the book. I noticed it was down to just £13 and thought what the hell and got it!

Was sent out today so I'm hoping it may arrive tomorrow morning, Monday at the latest.


What are the little extras like by the way? The posters, the newspaper and the cards?
