Gibson created the term cyberspace and is seen as one of the forefathers of cyberpunk.
Its weird, then, that his novels and stories never translated to the silver screen before the mid-90s.
Who wouldnt watch that?
While an adaptation ofNeuromancerhas been in development hell for years, it should have appeared years ago.
So what went wrong?
Johnny Mnemonicis not a bad film.
Ice-T seems like an odd inclusion, but he manages fine.
Its not hard to imagine why.
Well, not officially, anyway.
Alongside this, however, are two little-known gems which borrow heavily from Gibsons stories to great effect.
The second isCypher, from 2002, starring Jeremy Northam and Lucy Liu.
