Movies that you really badly want, but also don't want because

I've read the book and played the video game.

Don't really care about a movie desu.

Back to the Future reboot

Good job

The least I can do is "You probably read the book a long time ago and don't remember it very well" or "You had a poor understanding of what was being described"

Fuck off faggot, kek.

There is hacking in neuromancer. You're retarded if you think otherwise.

What do you think he cyberdeck is for? watching porn?

>>82432066
Wow, your argument is collapsing before my eyes. One post in. Amazing.

>>82432244
There is no argument.
I already defeated you. You know nothing about Neuromancer.

>>82432312
I never denied that there was hacking in Neuromancer, I denied your pitiful description of it,
>DUDE ALGEBRAH SIGNS FLOATING PAST ME IN COMPUTER SPACE TO SIGNIFY IM HACKING
As if there weren't fantastic descriptions of the matrix and what Case was seeing in it, especially at the end

>>82432396
Wow so you whole objection to my post was that you're a fucking retard that doesn't know how Hollywood depicts hacking?

Read my post again then proceed to kill yourself.

>>82432747
Please name a couple. If neuromancer is shit in comparison to these books then id be interested in reading them

>>82432503
That's what I want a movie so they can reimagine it as something good.

>>82431766
I read the book and who gives a shit

>>82432916
I want a movie
So, me

>>82431766
The fucked up Johnny Mnemonic pretty bad, so yeah, no Neuromancer.

>>82432983
Johnny Mnemonic wasnt that bad

>>82432983
Why did you have to remind me?

>>82431852
Porky's would never happen. Feminists don't want another bro movie. And a gender swap wouldn't work because they would say they're objectifying women.

I really enjoyed this book.

I think it's too late for a neuromancer adaptation at this point. Reality has kind of broken away from the way william gibson imagined the net. They would have to change it so much that it wouldn't really resemble the original plot.

Also, reading that book again recently, what was the whole purpose of using a deck when a normal interface would just work fine? Am I missing something here?

>>82433602
But it's already shit

>>82433689
Why does it have to be realistic to today's world?

I think the point of the deck was that WAS the normal interface.
Otherwise, it allowed for much more intimate interactions and much faster and more effective maneuvers, I guess

I dare Hollywood to attempt Malazan.

First book alone would cost like $300 million

>>82433754
Well they could present it in sort of a retrofuturistic kind of tone. It would be kind of cool actually

>>82434014
>Medieval fantasy
Ugh
Is there anything that sets it apart from the masses, or is it just another Tolkien ripoff?

>>82434014

Ewwww.

This looks like the kind of paperback fantasy series where Barnes & Noble has to send back 90% of their stock to the publisher after 8 months to be pulped.

>>82434113
Not even close to a Tolkien rip off. Think GoT with 10x the characters, magic, and plotlines.

Oscar Isaac as Case
MEW as Molly
Bryan Cranston as Armitage

>>82434113
>Tolkien ripoff?
completely different to Tolkien. Different worlds, very weird.original magic system (more complicated than WoT), and the books are more like an anthology series as there is no main character per se.

>>82434198
>MEW
yes

YES

YEESSSSSSSS

>>82433344

Fuck yeah.

My nigger. It's perfect for a screen adaptation but I can't think of anyone who wouldn't fuck it up in some way

neuromancer was shitty genre fiction anyways. don't try to pretend it had any deeper meaning. might as well read comic books you nerd

For 2017, maybe. But for 1982...

Red Mars (Mars Trilogy) for a 10 episode per season HBO. The end of season 1 would be the TV spectacle of the year.

Now I know there is a particularly bad way to fuck up an adaptation: change the entire personality of the main character

And it came with a great insult for anyone who liked the book: the main character is "boring" so we had to change it

>>82431852
>reboot
more like reddit

>>82433550
IMHO it wouldn't work, the studios know it, and that's why it's never been made.
People just disappearing and reappearing somewhere else without being superheroes would just be a distraction in a film, but it's essential to the plot.

>>82437674
Check out the Starz adaption, episode 1 just dropped, and it's pretty well cast but seems to miss the mark stylistically but what do I know

>>82433344
I hope they never get to attempt it. That's one of my favorite books and hollywood could never make a faithful adaption.

A properly done Amber adaptation could be incredible, but it would never happen.

Neuromancer and Snow Crash movies have been in development hell for ages. A new director gets announced every few years and then nothing happens.

Pick one.

Oh shit, also another Zelazny book that could be an amazing movie, Lord of Light. The movie Argo is about what happened with a fake film adaptation of it back in 79.

Anything with blackface elves, I can get behind, because of the massive chimpout it would cause which I would love to see. Also those books suck dick, take a drink every time the author says anything about pathos. You'll be dead before you finish the first one of those trashpiles.
