RE: 'Altered Carbon’ is more than just a 'Blade Runner’ ripoff
It's a shame we have not seen a screen adaptation of "Neuromancer". Still one of my favorite cyberpunk Era book and 90s Pc video game. We are coming closer and closer to that reality it seems.
Screen adaptation of Neuromancer? Now we're talking
If you never had the pleasure/pain of playing the 1988 version of "Neuromancer" I would recommend checking it out, since I believe it's floating around. At one point I believe Willieam Gibson did sell the movie rights and it was going to be produced, but I think it got squashed before it made it far. As closest we came I think was "Johnny Mnmonic" in 1995, as I hoped if that did well we would see "Neuromancer" be green lit. Check out the PC gameplay below:
Hold the Deck! (see what I did there?) - It looks like mention of last year of a possible of Neuromancer making it to the big screen! - http://deadline.com/2017/08/deadpool-tim-miller-neuromancer-william-gibson-movie-fox-simon-kinberg-1202145496/
