Somewhere in a Hollywood back office a movie director and screenwriter (of music videos) is being interviewed by Fox executives and says something like this: "Well, I think Chris Carter had a fantastic concept in Millennium; though I never actually watched an episode of the show, but I'm thinking this is a perfect vehicle for a comedy. Sort of like those hilarious Police Academy movies I used to watch as a child; but you know, with the FBI instead the police, and any evil cult members would be like the bad guys in the Dragnet movie I saw when I was 10, the ones with the mohawks. " One Fox Executive to another: "Did I tell you this guy was brilliant or what?" Then to the would be director: "Do you think you can work with Shia LeBeouf as Frank Black? Director: Of course! I was thinking of him or Zak Efron for the role. I can see it now.

True, but it wasn't completely ignored altogether. People knew about it. They just didn't know that the Millennium Group was behind it. And whenever Frank claimed that they were, he ended up sounding like a madman. But we all know he's not. I wonder if they could get Terry O'Quinn in the movie. I was never fully convinced that Peter Watts died at the end of the series.

In a sense, what's the point of armageddon on the weekend if you still end up going to work on monday?
