I can't imagine this is going to go well.
At least it's not "Snow Crash". For the love of all that is good please, nobody try to adapt "Snow Crash". (I wonder if I should try to crowd-fund buying the film rights to "Snow Crash" so it can be off-the-table forever...)
- odiroot 4y agoFunny, I have the completely opposite wish. I'd really love to see movie adaptations for "Snow Crash" and "Cryptonomicon" in my lifetime.
- glenstein 4y agoI agree with you, although maybe for different reasons. A lot of the vibe of snowcrash almost felt like a saturday morning cartoon, and it seems like it would make even more sense on the screen than in a book. I also understand it was originally intended to be a graphic novel.
- EvanAnderson 4y agoI didn’t know about the graphic novel intention, but that probably explains why I have only ever seen it working in a motion picture medium, in my mind, as an anime. A well-done “Snow Crash” anime would absolutely do the material justice but I’m not sure it would have enough market potential to get made. I’d kick money into that cause, too.
- EvanAnderson 4y ago“Cryptonomicon” would definitely work. “Anathem” is another one that I’d love to see and I think could be made to work in the medium.
