I love sci-fi, I love dystopia, I love cyberpunk. I strongly dislike neuromancer. I don't like Gibson's writing style. He's horrible with characters, dialogue, and action. I understand he built an incredible world, I just don't like what he filled it with. All that being said, I hope the fans enjoy this iteration, but after what Apple did to Foundation, I wouldn't be surprised to see werewolves pop up in the fucking show. Good luck, fans.
