They have been living together for 6 years. Had they definitely sex on the bed off-screen? I think they might have slept together.
shareIt's a distinct possibility.
And that's all the people rooting for this to happen since 1993 have got, after 202 episodes, and 2 movies.
Yeah, that's the implication. The scene they showed was of a couple who were together--in bed--clearly comfortable with each other, which implies that they have been there before having sex on a regular basis.
shareThe implication for me was that they've had sex, and it wasn't nearly as exciting as they and certain other people had imagined for nine years or so, so now they mainly read and go to sleep.

No, that was the part I remembered--I've seen hotter bedroom scenes on "Everybody Loves Raymond." Mulder didn't even look like he EXPECTED there to be actual sex.
shareThat was Mulder's "expectant sex face." C'mon. Plus this is TXF, we were lucky they were even in the same bed. CC is the one that's not hot, not M&S.
shareTold you he wanted graphic porn.

I'm suspecting that they resumed their sexual relationship after the last episode. And that they had been having sex ever since.
Let's consider the facts here...
We see M&S 6 years after they have been continuously together (I assume). Just like in a marriage, things calm down. It's not "bad" or "disappointing", it's just the way it is. We're not seeing their first sexcipade after Truth, or the first time it happened, we're seeing SIX YEARS of sex 4-5 times a week. And Scully was mentally exhausted. I think Mulder was making a joke - hoping to make her smile or laugh. Not really expecting to get some.

"Elephants are not purple. This is wrong."
Let's consider the KNOWN facts.
We have never EVER seen them engaged in sexual activity, or talking about having had sexual activity, or even in bed together after sexual activity. They've kissed a handful of times, never with any credible passion.
Obviously it's been IMPLIED they've had sex, but in this day and age, how weird is it that there's still actual doubt.
Carter still refuses to say in interviews whether they've had sex or not. He seems to think this is subtle of him.
This is not supposed to be the kind of unexplained phenomena the show was about.
If you want to see them as a couple, this is lame. If you don't want to see them as a couple, it's also lame. Therefore, it doesn't matter what the 'truth' is. What matters is that this is bad storytelling, and pretty much worthless as entertainment.
Why bother to have them in bed at all, since they're not discussing anything remotely relevant to the plot, and it tells us nothing except that they've 'calmed down', as you say? How does it further the story? The only point would be to satisfy the prurient interests of a section of the fanbase, which remain unsatisfied to this very day, except in fanfiction.
From the perspective of those who wanted them to remain platonic work partners, this movie was the last nail in the coffin. But those who kept rooting for them to be a couple can hardly be very happy either, because Carter essentially skipped over the honeymoon straight to the "Married With Children" segment of the relationship, only without the children.
I'm not interested in how you justify this tripe. I'm interested in why you bother. It's a bad movie. Deal with that.

by Sinister_Finnster - I know I'm a bit late for this, but.......
How can you say they weren't discussing anything important?...
It seems to me that the writers were angling for a Mulder-Scully relationship from the start. In the 1st show when Scully goes to Mulder's motel room to show him the 'marks' on her hip. In her underwear! And the ongoing repartee about Mulder's porn collection. Always the banter. But you have to think that they didn't actually do anything until after season 6, considering the look on Scully's face in the movie when Mulder moves to kiss her on the lips. I tear up every time I see that.
shareIn the first five or six years of the show, Carter said over and over and OVER that he never intended for Mulder and Scully to be anything but work partners. Now I honestly don't think he had any kind of solid long-term plan for anything--the relationship or the mythology. So if you want to say he was lying, fine. He's done a lot of that. But that's what he said. In practically every interview he did back in the 90's. And he did hundreds. Possibly thousands.
shareOf course Mulder and Scully have sex. They had a ****ing kid. Did you not watch the series?
Let's talk about the second film. I liked it because it felt like a throwback to the series while gracefully maturing and retiring Mulder and Scully, without being indulgent. It's a well made, spooky B-movie for fans of the series or fans of science fiction in general. It crosses that critical threshold where the occasional clumsiness just adds charm. The bedroom scene in IWTB heavily implied the main characters were sexually active. Newsflash: in visual storytelling, when something is "implied", it means it "happened".
I assume you got turned down as an extra on one of Carter's shoots, or simply hate the guy for being successful-- it wouldn't be the first time. That would explain why you feel the need to go on about a guy with a long and storied career who created one of the most popular and long-running television shows in history-- something a loser like you will never accomplish.
Sorry this isn't some overrated Christopher Nolan romp where the viewer is led along by the nose and everything is constantly and exhaustingly explained in vivid detail from one minute to the next because the director thinks his audience is full of retardos. We didn't see anything racy in IWTB because X-Files has always been a classy show when it comes to romance and this particular scene cemented the physical relationship of the leads without distracting from the plot.
You have potential but you like to hide your lack of intelligence behind cynicism and boisterous assumptions, instead of presenting your ideas on the level so they can be easily shot down. It's boring, frankly. I was running forums in the 90s while you were crapping yourself so I've seen it all. At least have the balls to stick around before getting your ass handed to you.
On that note, don't bother with the "ignore" spiel (unless you want to) since I've already gone ahead and put you on mine. Peace
The original poster seems awfully obsessed with Scully's sex life. Odie's posted before on similar subjects on the XF show board. I get the impression Odie doesn't want Scully to *have* a sex life except with Mulder, and she must be virginal before they consummated, but I could be wrong about that.
Did YOU not watch the series?
It was never explained how William was born, though there was an attempt made by Scully to have her eggs artificially inseminated by Mulder which was deemed unsuccessful.
Of course Mulder and Scully have sex. They had a ****ing kid. Did you not watch the series?
Scully also said that it didn't work (end or Per Manum) and couldn't understand how she was pregnant.
shareYeah but then it worked, didn't it?
If she had a child, it obviously worked and they just told her it didn't to run more experiments on her or doctor her records. Who knows? But it sure wasn't her having sex with Mulder that spawned their kid, that's for certain.
I really wouldn't say the scene in this film was their first time.
http://www.freewebs.com/demonictoys/
Their first time doing what? Lying sexlessly together in the same bed, while Scully reads, Mulder makes the lamest innuendo of all time, and she belittles his package? I'm sure that's all they've been doing for most of the past six years. All that anticipation could only lead to disappointment.

Despite the majority of all his other posts here, it sounds like clyons has been thinking about the sex life of Mulder and Scully a heck of a lot more than he would prefer others to believe.
I expected it to be bad, and it was, like the rest of the movie.
But seriously--after 15 years of a crazed section of the fanbase screaming for Mulder and Scully to go to bed together--pretty much the ONLY section of the fanbase that still gives a damn what they do--this was it? The great love scene of all time? "Just a little thing?"
Hilarious.
So graphic porn then?
http://www.freewebs.com/demonictoys/
Both actors have come pretty close to that already in their more recent endeavors, particularly Duchovny. Might want to be careful about lighting, though.
Wow, cylons, you are one bitter fan. I use the word fan because you obviously still care enough to hang out here, even if it's only to vent your anger and disappointment. Sorry you have been so let down by CC and apparently everything to do with XF. That's a sad place to be.
I thought the movie was a disappointment in some areas, especially the dialogue. I'm sure it didn't help that the writers strike prevented any rewrites, assuming CC would have gone for that. I think expectations were very high, maybe unrealistically so, but I enjoyed just experiencing TXF again and the little nods to fans were fun and nostalgic.
And another lame personal attack, because somebody kind of liked a bad movie, and is pissed somebody else didn't.
Ignore list.
by clyons - And another lame personal attack, because somebody kind of liked a bad movie...
I'm not pissed that you don't like the movie, clyons. Lots of people didn't, and my feelings about it are lukewarm at best.In no way was that a personal attack. I said I found it sad that you were so disappointed and angry with TXF. Are you claiming that you aren't ? If you believe in your opinions, then why is it a "personal attack" for me to refer to them? I didn't claim your opinion was wrong, or misguided, or even "lame".

Oh God! I never thought I would agree with Clyons. After watching the XF from day one and enjoying the great story telling, acting, directing etc, and being told by CC that It would scare my pants off, I'm still wearing them and feeling very disappointed. I don't care about M & S in bed or how they look at each other or whatever. All I wanted was to see the XF, one of the most iconic shows of it's time that aired on TV. It didn't get there from bedroom scenes. It got there by a group of hard working cast, crew and writers etc. I wonder how it makes them feel when the fans seem to just care about M & S getting it on?

Well, it would be allowed on old time TV. It would practically get past the 1950s censors. Well, maybe not. Ricky and Lucy had separate beds and were married. But you get the idea.
Tame? No, I like to think of it as chaste. Restrained. Refined. Refreshing.
Even seeing clyons discussing this is wrong. So wrong, lmao.
He needs to get some before telling fictional characters how to get theirs.
"I wonder how it makes them feel when the fans seem to just care about M & S getting it on?"
That's not reality. Even for me, lmao. Don't kid yourself--I'm a MAJOR shipper. (I re-wind for glances. GLANCES!)
We watch it for the story being told. M&S-inness is icing on the cake. (Proof? I don't watch Castle and Beckett because the stories don't hold my interest enough.)

So, don't agree with Clyons based on Odie's comments. The whole idea of these 2 warping your worldview like that disturbs me!
In all fairness, shippers were never more than a small minority of fans.
They just talked louder than all the others. And you wouldn't believe how many websites they used to have.
Very few now.

I could certainly understand that--if there was any heat between them at all, any chemistry, any kind of understandable compelling relationship.
The Mulder/Scully dynamic died out a long time ago, precisely because Carter finally gave in and tried to make it romantic, because he thought that's what the audience wanted. For the most part, it wasn't what the audience wanted. The tension was the point--resolve it, even offscreen, and it dies.
And you still can't prove they ever had sex. After almost 20 years. Carter still won't come out and say that's a proven fact. He'll keep you hanging forever, if you let him.

I hear what everyone is saying. Really I do. It's just disappointing to me that most of the fans that I come in contact with are only interested in the relationship. How many besides me are really interested to this day about the story plot?
I do disagree with Clyons about one thing. That is his statement about the size of the group of shippers. I have not found one place on the internet where I'm not the minority.
Now when the fans discuss episodes, it's all about the scenes with M & S. I'd like sometimes to discuss the special effects, did the story have a hidden message, whatever. I've not found fans that care about that. Instead, it's do you think they made love in "All Things"? When do you think Scully got pregnant? These questions are discussed ad nauseam.
I said from day one that I believed if M & S got together and Scully got pregnant it would be "Moonlighting" all over again. It was. Now I'm reading that "Bones" is doing the same thing and some people are questioning the intelligience of their decision. I don't watch "Bones" so I don't have an opinion. I do feel that when you take away the anticipation, what you have left is "Married With Children".

This is the type of rationalizations I've noticed most over the years behind the opinions of people who didn't like IWTB. There always seems to be something they're trying to prove they were "right" about before the movie was actually released, and if it takes trashing the entire movie to prove it, so be it. Whether it be clyons trying to prove he's been right all along regarding his opinions of Chris Carter, or the varied opinions of the intricacies of Mulder and Scully's love life and the direction it "should" have taken.
Well The X-Files: IWTB was called The X-Files: IWTB for a reason. Wanting to believe in the paranormal and other unexplained phenomenon was the impetus for Mulders pursuance of The X-Files, which he was working on long before Scully entered the picture. And for Scully, it was wanting to believe in her religious faith. And on those respective subjects, IWTB delivered, regardless of the opinions of some to the contrary. It wasn't called The Mulder and Scully show after all. It seems a lot of people tend to forget that
I'm not going to try to put words in Whototrust's mouth. I'm just going to say how I took what he said.
All of the following is IMO IMO IMO:
He's talking about expectations of what the movie should have been. Some people had preconceived notions of what the movie should've been about, how the movie should have gone, etc. Some of those preconceived notions were or were not confirmed. People left disappointed because the movie didn't fill their preconceived notions. If the movie is taken for what it really is, a MOTW, it's not half bad.
Clyons was happy, though, lol. His preconceived notions were confirmed in his opinion.
Belief. Wanting to believe. Scully wanted to believe in her faith. Mulder wanted to believe in the paranormal. Both of them were challenged, and both of them turned out to be right. They saved the day for 1 young woman and caught the bad guys.
This is what I'd like to add.
What some fans didn't like was that Scully's desire to believe and Mulder's desire to believe clashed in this case. It wasn't Scully the rational vs. Mulder the intuitive. It was Scully the religious vs. Mulder the believer in the paranormal working at cross paths. This unnerved some people, I think. But it's a natural progression of these characters. They're no longer working cases, and they have separate jobs and identities.

OK, but let's talk about the movie!
I liked it. You didn't. Good place to start.
Let's explore the noromo universe! I'm not entirely familiar with it, so it'll be fun!
"How many besides me are really interested to this day about the story plot?"
I am, I am. I was riveted by Scully's research into cell stem stuff and the cruel experiments on dogs. I was on the edge of my seat to see what Father Joe could 'see' as they were driving on the road. The movie was suspenseful for me.
It was shot slower than XF stuff tends to be--like longer shots or something, but that was the only difference I could see.
When Mulder was in trouble, I was worried about him, although I know they always make it in the end, I was still worried. I hoorayed when Skinner showed up to save the day. And when Scully trusted her gut, I cheered.
If you want to talk about the movie, let's talk about the movie. Because I can. I've seen it twice relatively recently, so I remember details.
And I want to talk about the movie, not just defend it.
[deleted]
Wow, this is also what I think. Lemme repeat your comment, "How is this possible?" Pretty darned cool is what it is.
shareLet's agree to disagree about the film's quality, which I think is abysmal on pretty much every level, though the cinematography (which Carter isn't responsible for) isn't too bad--or anything at all special. Competent, no more--which is more than you can say about the writing, directing, or acting.
But FYI, you're wrong about the screenplay being pulled from a 'stockpile' of unused scripts. Pilfered from them, perhaps--but Carter and Spotnitz wrote this script the same year the film was made. Plenty of far superior scripts, for film and TV, have been written with less advance notice--that isn't the problem. Fight the Future, which was not QUITE as horrible as IWTB, was written in even less time, during the hiatus between the 4th and 5th seasons. Explore the extreme possibility that these guys are just really sucky writers, whether they take their time or not. I mean, they had SIX YEARS to think about this one.
What you're missing is that if it hadn't been for the strike, Carter couldn't have gotten any film made. But having gotten it made, he proved, once and for all, that he wasn't the secret of this franchise's success (other people deserve that perhaps now-dubious honor), and furthermore, that people had just lost interest in both the franchise and its shopworn 'stars.'
There's nothing left here--except the inevitable reboot, which will have to be made by new people--on both sides of the camera--if it's going to have any chance of success.
More money, in Carter's hands, just makes for a bigger flop.
And honestly--in Canada, with the leads agreeing to a percentage of the (nonexistent) profits, a film like IWTB shouldn't have cost HALF what Carter blew on it.
[deleted]
Fair enough, but I think you underestimate just how bad the reaction was to IWTB, and to the last few years of the show. A whole lot of potential viewers are just GONE now. They might come back for a reboot (or a whole generation of new fans might appear), but face it--Anderson & Duchovny aren't movie stars, and never could have been. They're too old now, and the chemistry is dead. So even with the best possible writing and direction, a movie starring them is going to do badly.
But that's a moot point to argue, because a movie starring them would be written and most likely directed by ol' Surferdud. Package deal. Maybe it happens, maybe not, dismal flop if it does, reboot happens either way--only question is when.
Forget it Jake, it's Cartertown.
[deleted]
Okay, let's agree that IF they could make a movie with Anderson & Duchovny that recaptured the spirit of the first few years of the show, a section of the show's audience would show up at theaters, or at least shell out for the DVD--enough to make a modestly budgeted film worthwhile from a commercial standpoint.
Now admit the basic fact that they can never do this. That X-Files is dead and gone, and that happened long before IWTB came out.
[deleted]
That's what's wrong with the people running the film industry these days in my opinion, short attention spans and being too afraid to take risks. They behave like sharks at a feeding frenzy only too eager to run off as many projects as possible with the current flavor of the month (seemingly regardless of whether those projects are just cliche copies of one another), and not willing to take a chance on a once HUGE fan base if there's even the slightest chance that a GUARANTEED ROI for the next quarterly report is not absolute. It's called a risk, and the people running the show (so to speak) seem to have forgotten that taking risks is most likely how they got where they currently are in the first place.
And all that in and of itself is somewhat understandable considering the current economy, where it seems as if everyone is holding their breath waiting for someone else to show them what to do, but as far the entertainment industry goes, the general public is left suffering through the majority of vision-lacking results being offered in theaters, ironically enough at the highest ticket prices ever. Gee, thanks movie industry.
And people blame Chris Carter for not giving the fans what they wanted in IWTB...
I'll believe it only if they've tried and failed to make a third film.
Otherwise, there's still hope.
From an industry perspective (I work in the film industry)
there's a good arguement for both sides.
In my opinion, DD & GA's appearance in a third would be the main issue of concern.
Both actors are ready and willing to participate-
although Anderson recently admitted there'd be little point in XF3 if not written on the 2012 story arc and released in that year.
However, I won't argue with the fact that both leads really aren't bankable anymore... They might have to get Gillian guest-starring in a couple of hit American TV shows first(of whichever studio would be doing the third film) in order to make her current.
Or, the film's supporting actors would have to be big actors. None of this Amanda Peet/ Xibit/ Billy Connelly nonsense.

I mean once it arrives in cinemas. Figures and reviews don't lie.
Ouch. Personal grudge much?
Something tells me if I revealed my exact title you'd have something to say about that. So I'll refrain.
Officially speaking, is this? Or are you a bigger backseat driver than Mr. Krump?
There is truth to this.
I'm not Gillian Anderson, or her agent. You are not either, I presume.
But I do know Anderson has been following several series and considering doing shorter TV stints both in the US and UK. She has expressed interest in this for a while now, and taking the school terms of her children into account is believe it or not an even higher priority than choosing the right project.
Not only does it work, but it's been done effectively for decades.
Was thinking more of shows with a little craft- Boardwalk Empire, The Walking Dead, American Horror Story, Breaking Bad, The Closer. There are a few.
I happen to live in the UK, and Anderson is actually quite highly regarded here. Are you familiar with BAFTA?
Oh, but I didn't give examples, so you can't possibly know whether it'd be distasteful.

shareThere's no cure for the herpes. You know, it all makes sense now. This personal grudge of Clyons isn't because he's a sad little person with no life. It's because Chris Carter gave him the gift that keeps on giving. Next time, Clyons, you'll have to break out the "no glove no love" line.

"Martha is 108... years old. She weighs somewhat more than that". - Georgeshare
I think they definitely live together and that Mulder has been derelict in his house-cleaning duties, which Scully was ever so slightly irked by when she walked in. Though, quite frankly, I'm not as big a neatnik as Scully, so their lived in living room and office don't look THAT bad to me. It's very homey, actually, with lots of wood cabinets and shelves and vintage decor. Scully's office space was very neat in comparison to Mulder's den and I noticed a Japanese-style hanging on the wall in her office, which seemed like a nice carry over from "all things." Undoubtedly some obsessive fan will better detail the decor of their abode and map out what is known of their bedroom, office, living room and other areas of their remote house, which I think is meant to be in very rural West Virginia. Scully is doing a lot of commuting.
Wish that there were even more scenes with the two of them together. Loved the kiss, but it was shot terribly and as romantic as the series was from start to finish Carter acts like he doesn't want them together. Come on! She was possibly telling him good by and they weren't kissing and embracing like mad? It was tender but I felt like he didn't want us to see it or something.
The answer is yes.
shareI know this was posted like forever ago but I just stumbled upon it. I have no idea if the user is still active. But I can answer your question about it. Yes they have had sex in that bed. It may not be stated or there may not be a sex scene but they have. The actors have made comments here and there about it. Like when they brought the show back David says he always gets it wrong about if they were married or not and Gillian says that they never were and he goes so we were living in sin. She then laughs and says yes we were.
They also reveal in like the trivia on this site for the show for episodes that they had a sexual relationship in their time together. You can argue that this is fan written but where did they get that info?
The question of William is always there but they consider him Mulder's kid. If you've seen the new season you will find that out. But it's also revealed in interviews, BTS, commentaries, etc. that they had a relationship and had sex. Their first time was revealed by Gillian Anderson in "All Things" that she wanted us to think that they had consummated their relationship because that was her angle there. So there's some proof out there. :)
I do want to also make a comment about what the user said about her "belittling" his manhood. Where in gods name dos you get that? The scene basically plays out like this:
Scully: I can't sleep
Mulder: I have a little something for that.
Scully: Just a little?
Mulder: Thank you.
Now where does she belittle his manhood? She compliments it.
I'm guessing they did have sex as they had sex in the Plus One episode though we don't see it
