Hyped as fuck. I love cyberpunk and I love hard R.

Sounds awful, I bet San junpiero fags will eat it up.

Cool and all, but what about PoC and the LGBTQQXFS community, how is that going to be represented?

"soul" = consciousness

>>84784689
I read it and liked it too. I really wonder who will play Takeshi.

That sounds pretty stupid. But having your consciousness digitized so people are basically immortal is one of the scariest things in the world to me. You could potentially be tortured or imprisoned for millions of years if it were possible to run a consciousness on a computer

>>84784497
sounds straight

>It’s going to be something special. It’s something that’s never been done before, and I’m a big fan of intelligent sci-fi. To see a sci-fi show that’s a hard R-rated sci-fi show with a big budget, so they’re really going to be able to create this entire world … I just started drooling at that possibility.”

>"soul" = consciousness

Bullshit. The soul is a spiritual construct, and is immortal. The soul is much more than mere consciousness.

This dude is Takeshi. Joel Kinnaman is the dude he's inserted into.

i was excited about this when I was reading the book. Then I saw the quality of every netflix show after the first season of Daredevil.

>>84784730

The dawn of cyberkino is upon us lads

>>84785664
only its going to come with videogames like
Death Stranding
Cyberpunk 2077
not this netflix liberal shit

>>84785536
Um Netflix has some of the highest production quality along with HBO

>>84786024
their anime is shit quality.

>Purefoy describes the show as huge in scope, one of the biggest projects Netflix has attempted.
>Actor Joel Kinnaman confirms that the show has a bigger budget than the first three seasons of Game of Thrones

I bet this will have tranny robots

>>84786171

>anime not made in Japan is shit

Really makes you think.

>>84786628

We can hope.

I hope they dont fuck it up. The book is GOAT cyberpunk.

Is there a release date yet?

>>84786171
Have you seen Castlevania?

The animation is better thank 90% of japanese shit. I think you just have garbage warped taste because you're a barely functional weeb.

>>84786560
So it's going to join the ranks of Marco Polo, The Get Down, and Sense8? Every big budget Netflix show gets cancelled after 1 or 2 seasons.

>>84786973
i find the v/o grating

the animation is ok

definitely better than the cg shit the nips are trying to get away with

>>84787048
Weird, I thought the voices were great too.

Also, the writing was surprisingly good.

>dat goatfucking/shovel story in the bar

>>84786024
good for them. There shows are shit.

Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Stranger Things, Series of Unfortunate Events, and Fuller House are the only ones I've seen.

Daredevil Season 1 was good but nothing else I've seen from Netflix was really worth watching. Maybe Altered Carbon will be different but I wouldn't count on it

>>84786560
but its gonna have a single lead actor who will have lots of graphic kills, smoke cigarretes, and basically be film noir.

Oh and druggy sex

actually looking forward to it

>>84785516
deluded idiot LMAO

>>84786024
decent production quality used to create complete shit shows

Netflix and their forced liberal pandering
What could possibly go wrong?

>>84784497
good book

0% chance they wont fuck it up

>>84785516
>psyche is Greek for "soul"
>psychology is the study of consciousness

you're fucking retarded my guy

>>84785532
So they're going to be putting an Asian guy into a buff white guy's body?

Oh boy. This is going to be problematic.

>future where the human mind has been digitized and the soul is transferable from one body to the next

wow its like a liberal utopia where any man can be put into a woman's body and vice-versa

>>84788107

You're comparing similar words in different languages from different times as if that proves something, and you call me retarded?

Okay, whatever.

Morgan's books are generally set in a post-extropianist dystopian world. Morgan described his "takeaway" of one of his books as:

>Society is, always has been, and always will be a structure for the exploitation and oppression of the majority through systems of political force dictated by an élite, enforced by thugs, uniformed or not, and upheld by a wilful ignorance and stupidity on the part of the very majority whom the system oppresses.

>>84784653

Must be you he owns.

>>84788342

>implying that etymology is a universal constant

The term "soul" is specifically spiritual in usage.

>>84786000
Death Stranding is cyberpunk? Looked more like "psychological" "thriller" nonsense to me.

>Hard R
is this supposed to add something to it? Game of Thrones is a "Hard R" and the moments that dictate why it is are usually the worst, most bait moments that usually involve mindless gore and/or titties. I.E. shit to distract you from how poor the writing actually is.

Who's playing Miriam Bancroft? The book literally goes on about her tits in every chapter so they better find someone with a good body of work

>>84784497
>>84784730

This doesn't even sound that cyberpunk based on that snippet. Hoping they go for neuromancer or Snowcrash tier insanity but I really doubt any production of this size or larger will

>>84788395
You think I have a chinaman's icebreaker lying around console cowboy?

>>84789056
It stars Joel Kinnaman as Kovacs, James Purefoy as Laurens Bancroft, Kristin Lehman as Miriam Bancroft, Martha Higareda as Kristin Ortega, Chris Conner as Poe, Alika Autran as Okulov, Tahmoh Penikett (late of BSG) as Dimitri Kadmin, Matt Frewer as Carnage, and Teach Grant as Jimmy DeSoto among many others.

>SJWflix

You already know it's gonna be another excuse to push some gay//pedo/transgender propaganda then get cancelled after the first season.

>>84784497
And I'm sure they'll use it to make some point about gender fluidity and how we're all one species or some shit.

>>84789337
it's got the second highest budget behind sens8, so I heard

>>84785664
was hoping it would be die from the live action gits

Crazy pheromone-drugged sex romp when?

>>84785563
First book -> great
Second book -> meh
Third book -> awful

>>84790136
I actually liked the third book over the second, but you're not off the mark that 2 and 3 were significantly weaker reads than 1.

can't wait for the really drawn-out explicit sex scenes and unnecessary in-your-face nudity! finally something mature for mature viewers such as myself!

>>84790136
The second one is awesome, where they end up in the Martian ruins, I liked it.

>>84784689
You know they're gonna fuck it up, why even do this to yourself?

So they make a 10 episode show for ~180+x million? Kinda bold.

>>84785102
that exact scenario actually plays out in the books, it's pretty fucked up

>>84784497
I think I caught autism just from reading this.

>>84789430
deep cuts on /tv/ tonight

>>84784497
I remember reading this back in the day... what a blast.

I don't have very high hopes for this, wouldn't even if a top film studio were to work on it. It's a very action packed but at the same time intriguing and intelligent novel. From what I've seen of Netflix they like weak sauce and the original is like a chilli.

>>84784497
>"Takeshi Kovacs"
>played by Joel Kinneman
I don't understand.

>>84791839

It's the 26th Century and he is of Japanese/Eastern European descent so it mostly makes sense. I just don't think that actor is a fit for the character unless they overboard on the noir which could ruin it.

>>84784497
>They’re really going to be able to create a world that’s got a bigger budget than the first three seasons of Game of Thrones

Uh, didn't Netflix just have to cancel two well-received shows because they were far too expensive? And now they're doing this?
