Mulder, It's Me: 12 Phone Call Icons

Jan 12, 2013 17:08

When it came time to create the banner for "Eight Urgent Phone Calls," there were so many to choose from, it was almost impossible to pick just one. After all, there are episodes where at least half the scenes are of Mulder and Scully talking on the telephone. In fact, everyone spends a lot of time making calls on this show. Face time is rare in ( Read more... )

Well heeeellllllloooo there, number 10. I love the look on Scully's face in number nine, as well.

Oh, yes, Shirtless!Mulder. I love shows where the eye candy is the guy. Not that GA isn't eye candy, too, but she's not often--put on display--except for the ridiculous scene in the pilot.

Ah yes, the phones. Even more than aliens, I think of phones with XF. I'm snagging a couple, although I wonder if I'll ever be able to use the Scully reaching for her Big White Phone of Doom without sniffling.

Thank you. The Scully icon is a little freaky. For the banner, I was looking for pivotal moments involving phones so Duane Barry/Ascension was an obvious choice.

Once I started looking for them, I realized how ubiquitous they were. The cordless phones were huge! Most of the phones still had cords! And, they still had working phone booths! I love the nineties!

Scully in #3 almost killed me. I want to jump into the screen and save her.

Also, cheers for the Krycek! Always appreciated :D

Thank you. I thought of you as I was making that Krycek icon. Your "partay time" icon is funny.

hee thanks :D I wish I could remember where it came from, it's a great icon

Very nice! I like that you made some with characters other than M&S, too. There really are phones all over the series- this collection makes me want to make one of those zillions-of-thumbnails style collages of The Phone Calls of TXF, including nearly every recurring character...

Thank you! You absolutely should make that collage. Have you seen this music vid: "Mulder It's Me: Telephone Saga"? There's another one of all of the scenes of Scully saying "Mulder, it's me."

I have now! Thanks! :)
