Neuromancer the movie... - thatguy - 01-07-2008
Quote:Two Gibson Adaptations, But Only One Peter Weir Movie
Hayden "Anakin" Christensen will star in a movie adaptation of William Gibson's classic novel Neuromancer, directed by Joseph Kahn. So far, Kahn's only credits are the low-budget biker movie Torque, and some Britney Spears music videos. (Torque does feature lots of spooky flickering neon lights, which is a start.) The slightly more experienced Peter Weir (The Truman Show) will be directing the movie of Gibson's Pattern Recognition.

Early Review - scapino - 01-07-2008
While I hate people that review films that they have never seen, I think we can make a pretty good guess which of these adaptations is going to suck. Hayden, the Keanu for a new generation.
OK, that is not fair, while Johnny Mnumonic sucked, I have actually seen Keanu in quite a few films that I have liked. To date the only possible Hayden Christinsen film that would entertain me would probably be a snuff film with him as the star.
