Neuromancer Movie In Your Future?
An anonymous reader pointed out a link talking about how Vincenzo Natali, writer/director of Splice, has written a screenplay for Neuromancer. The article says he even ran it by Gibson. No studio is attached to the project, but at least Natali promised "No Keanu."
Having a guitar play Henry would be pretty awesome.

The first thing I thought was "Damn, someone really resented having a kid."

Good for you, pal. I've been writing Phillip K. Dick screenplay adaptations for years, and that sonofabitch has YET to approve even ONE of them!

EXCELLENT!!! *Air Guitar plays in the background*
My first thought was "I guess all the good names for phone companies were already taken."
If they switched the second and third letters around their logo could be a rabbit sitting down and reading a newspaper.
Yeah, well, this is the year that Neuromancer will rule the desktop in Soviet Russia! So there! Profit!
For what it's worth, I really liked the first one. It was an amazing story, and Reeves' unique dumber-than-brick acting style really worked, lent the role an intense cluelessness that was perfect. Once Neo knows what he's doing though, the dumber-than-brick style of Reeves' just doesn't work. It just means Neo is a dumb fuck. As such, the second was only watchable for the fight scenes, and the third was just plain terrible. Even the fight scenes weren't that good.

Instead, the role of Case will be played by Ben Affleck. Whoah!
That's what hating on Keanu gets you.

Don't be mean. He's a passable actor as long as you keep him in the correct characters.
I suggest:
- Robot from space.
- Tree.
- Brick.
- Guy in carbonite block (just spray him black)
I'll watch it while playing Duke Nuken Forever.

Personally, I only trust howitzer for original source material.
Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure everything I just said is completely wrong.
Woah!
