Who wouldn't like to see Neuromancer made into a movie? Well, actually, me, because I suspect they'd make a hash of it. If it could be done well... as someone pointed out earlier in the thread, cyberpunk is hard.

actually, this was turned into a film called johnny mnemonic which starred keanu reeves and was really a couple of books botched into one story. it was also where the matrix got some inspiration

Any of HP Lovecrafts books. Don't particularly care which one, either.

Also, someone said Matrix was stolen from neuromancer or johnny mnemonic.. I had heard that the matrix trilogy is part of a much larger series of storys written by some woman who is suing the creaters of the matrix 'cause they stole her story. In addition to that, shes suing over The Terminator because the Terminator is part of the same series of books and is actually part of the matrix storys. Of thats all true, i'd like to read all of her books! It would make one heck of an epic story.

Helloooooooo...
Can anyone say the entire Gunslinger/Dark Tower series. Um, not like they're the greatest books EVER WRITTEN or anything...
Oh, and Baak, I'm surprised you didn't call this one first (what with Roland in your avatar). You have forgotten the face of your father.

Ooh Ooh Ooh! I second that motion. I would love to see that. Cyberpunk would be hard to do well.. well maybe not with cgi these days.. The movie Webmaster (I think..) had some elements from Snow Crash, but the computer graphics were so terrible..
