Just for kicks and giggles, J.B. Smoove, Leno’s second guest on the show, also chimed in with a bit of humor concerning another X-Files film:

The concept of campaigning for a third X-Files film is nothing new to fans of the show. X-Philes from all over the world have been campaigning for The X-Files 3 ever since the franchise’s second film, The X-Files: I Want to Believe, came and went with a whimper (unfortunately) back in 2008. Even those that hated the last film wanted to believe it would be good, and still believe that another film could bring it all back home for one final mind-blowing outing for Mulder and Scully. In short, the fans want closure.

Head on over to X-Files News for more information on all the creative ways fans have been campaigning, and to find out what you can do to help make The X-Files 3 a reality!
