Neuromancer Film Update and Reading Ideas

Yesterday there was a Twitter-based report that Liv Tyler is in talks to star in the film version of Neuromancer, though some remain skeptical whether the film will actually happen. Do you think she would make a good Molly? If not, who might you cast in that role? And, by the way, the rumors have it that Hayden Christensen is cast to play Case: thoughts?

And as you're reading and preparing for tomorrow's class, you might consider how this last section of the book talks about humans as statistical profiles (211), family dramas/constructions (220), love (232), the relationships between real and virtual living (249), change (251), and of course the very end of the novel.

  2. Hayden Christensen is a pretty good choice for Case. I think he would fit well. Liv Tyler is such an odd choice for Molly, though. I think they should just reprise the whole Star Wars sage and bring back super-all-around actress Natalie Portman for Molly...
