Hi! How is everybody doing? Just wanted to say hi and express my worship of one of the greatest writers of our time. As Gibson says all sci-fi is based on the...
Of course, everybody would love to see Neuromancer brought to film, but the consensus seems to be that nobody could do it justice. I personally think it would...
First, Gibson material is 0 for 2 in terms of good movie adaptations. The reasons vary--"Johnny Mneumonic" capturing the surface and ignoring the spirit in the...
I dont knwo aobut that... I think iot is ppossible to do good with a gibson movie, BUT: Because of the number of ideas that were incorporated into "the matrix"...
I daydream scenes from my film version of neuromancer all the time. most notably molly flying down(up) the tunnel to get into the villa straylight. soundtrack...
I agree that a movie of Neuromancer would be difficult and/or disappointing in it's final result. And, would seem, yet another attempt to create a decent...
we are familiar with Gibson's world, even we who havent read much of him... we have seen bits from him, here and there, some movies, art, novels etc but we...
Great ideas. To create a Gibson movie that parallels the book or is even close is .. amazingly hard to even conceive. I beleive that all these concepts that...
I have to agree that the Bridge books would likely be easier to adapt to film; I can't help but think that audiences would react to the sight of the Golden...

James Cameron wrote strange days which, when I first saw it, I thought must have been from a Gibson story. I think, even as rich as he is, he could do burning...
... I think just about any short story of Gibson is film worthy. I am leery of putting novels on film. The stories are told in two different ways. Something...
I think this matter has been mentioned before but... I find it strange that Wintermute used images from the memory of Case, but images from Chiba and...
That's a good point, really. Off the cuff, I'd assume that it chose memories like that because, being people from his very recent past, they were easier to...
i like that explanation... Case didn't see 'well' in the simulation those things that he didn't remember and i am sorry about the way i wrote the previous ...
As much as I like William Gibson's writing, and cyberpunk SF in general, I have to leave this group. My husband started seriously discussing divorce today, and...

PR = a low 5 or a high 4 Neuromancer? A strong 9!...
I'd say that's pretty high when most of the qualities of cyberpunk don't seem to be present. The most obvious technology would be in the internet. ... It...

That would be my point exactly... I mean, Gibson has over the course of his first six novels been less and less cyberpunkish... I would go so far as to say...

Hi, My first post, and I think it might be a controversial one... I really like Pattern Recognition. I also really like his 3(and a bit) Sprawl books and the 3...

Idoru a Bridge Trilogy book? Think I'll have to re-read it for the 4928th time, since I don't recall it being as such. Could be wrong though... usually am. --...
