Nasty.

Neuromancer is unique in that there really aren't other entries in the genre it codified. There are a handful of short stories that predate it, but nothing after it genuinely understood cyberpunk beyond an aesthetic (don't get me started on Snowcrash).

Neuromancer has been devalued almost from its publication date, so this is just another insult in a long lineage of insults.

Absolute truth. Snowcrash is a theme park.

Neuromancer is one of those rare books that makes another world so genuinely interesting that it can put you in it.

And nobody watching it will even know what a sky like a TV tuned to a dead channel originally meant.

A new generation indoctrinated with DEI garbage using a skin suit.

Looks like they didn't spare any expenses for the costumes.

Yea I’ll just buy the book and read it. This just makes me dread what will be done to Narnia

Please no. They already butchered Foundation.

Fingers crossed they don't get the Robot series either.

Thanks, I was kinda thinking that. I haven't seen/ read foundation, but my one friend had mentioned it was like a diversity hire star wars so I figured probably meant woke washing.

If you're never read Foundation, you're missing out. It's great.

As for the series, it's bad. Really bad. I skipped out on it total, so I didn't see first hand how bad it was, but apparently it's really, really bad. 'Totally misses the fucking point' level of bad.

It's guaranteed, though. Apple TV is a DEI abomination.
