It's been some time since I read it, but I would think the most challenging aspect of Neuromance would be in the visuals. If done well, they'd convey a good chunk of the book's worldbuilding and other descriptions, leaving mostly the characters and the heist.
I think the bigger challenge is that it's been partially adapted so many times already by inspiring so many shows and movies over the decades that the actual adaption would seem derivative and like treading old ground. Therefore, how do you make it it's own thing while respecting the source material.
- Krasnol 4y agoI agree totally with your argument regarding the visuals. Judging from the Foundation though, I'm pretty optimistic they can manage that. They seem to be willing to through serious cash at their shows. It doesn't always mean something as we have seen with the Super Hero Hype but they did a wonderful thing with the Foundation visually. However I'm not sure about the characters, their development and their emotional structures. You should read the book(s) again and watch out for the style in which Gibson build them. The books are a great re-read. I'll go for it myself once I'm finished with my current read.
