he wrote neuromancer

many people call it the cyberpunk bible

Moebius's the long tomorrow is the first work of cyberpunk. It's a great comic.

it ends a shitty flash animated piece of crap because it was too expensive to do what he would like to do

It would be pretty boring.
I mean, I love the man's books, and they were revolutionary for the time. But just about all the crazy future stuff he predicted has come to pass. It would just be a cartoon about living 2 or 3 years int he future.
And ill informed people would call a bunch of stuff a ripoff from the Matrix.

William Gibson Sprawl. Thanks to him we have pic related.

Other creatives borrow ideas from it and mix other ideas in to their derivatives but he thinks they're all retarded.

Then he gets insulted when those people thank him for his influence on their work.

Then he stops making cartoons that present new ideas and coasts on the cred he established with his earlier works.

Moved to a shitty timeslot after three episodes, cancelled after five episodes.

Haven't you read any of his newer novels?

He's doing current setting stuff now.
One of the protagonists is basically Blondie.

This...I still don't have read these newer ones but they don't seem that good. On the other hand some of his works of the 80's are God-tier, pretty much the only real and pure cyberpunk in books IHMO

Nothing.

Neuromancer is probably my favorite book of all time.

I have Burning Chrome, Mona Lisa Overdrive, and Count Zero on my shelf for later reading.

It's rubbish, his film scripts are absolutely rubbish, even his Neuromancer script. A screenwriter this man is not, and this is coming from a HUUUGEEE Gibson fan, got everything by him bar his last two and that limited self-destructing CD-Rom prose poem. Love, love, LOVE his work, Neuromancer, Mona Lisa Overdrive, Virtual Light and The Difference Engine are among my favourite "genre" works ever.
Apparently he re-wrote 2/3 of Neuromancer when he watched Bladerunner for the first time.
