Sorry Peg... I don't see Johnny Dep as Shadow at all... Shadow is a HUGE man, and looks like he might be part 1st Nations... Johnny just doens't fit either bill... Maybe Vin Diesel, but he's even too big... hehehehe

Hackman is an interesting idea for Wednesday, but I think I'd rather see someone more 'Scandinavian'... There's got to be a few dudes left over from 'The 13th Warrior' who'd better fit the bill, and are likely more in need of the pay-cheque! LOL

FL.. Everything 'cyberpunk' or 'post cp' I've ever read from Stephenson peetered out at the end... Cryptonomicon, Diamond Age and Snow Crash... I also don't see how the end of Neuromancer 'radically changed the universe in which it was set'... Wintermute even says, "Things aren't different. Things are things."

(Maybe we can continue this as PMs or something... so as not to clutter up the thread eh... :-) )
