First Person Shooter - 03/02/00

"...silicone meets silicon..." - One of the Lone Gunman, I'm not 
sure which.

I was afraid that this episode would suck. I even thought of skipping 
TXF and watching The Beach Boys movie instead, but like a good Phile, 
watched TXF and I now know that the episode sucked. Here's why:

It was pure testosterone-induced, massacre producing mayhem. Besides 
that, it was directed by Chris Carter!!!!!

Naked women don't belong on the X-Files.

We played the virtual reality card in S5. Personally, I didn't like 
that one very much, but to me VR is boring and has no place in the 
X-Files. 

Phoebe's motive of loneliness for creating Atria (or whatever the hell 
her name was) was kinda shallow. She could've easily joined a women's
 club, or made a friend or something instead of creating a cyber-slut.

I think this episode is final proof that CC and Co. should Shift+Alt+bloodbath 
themselves out of existence.

Musings of a K.M.C.:

-Wasn't "Phoebe" in Firewalker?

- Is it just me, or did Scully look like she was wearing Glad Wrap at 
the beginning?

- When Byers said "its just a flesh wound", I thought of Monty Python!!!

       -Your arm's off!

       -No it isn't.

      - What's that then (referring to severed arm on ground)?

      - Its just a flesh wound!

- Mulder's voiceover at the end was completely absurd and uncalled for. 
That sucked too.

Again: This episode sucked.

Rating: .5 lounge chairs out of 5, only for reminding me of Monty Python.
