In addition to serving as showrunner of the limited series, Silka Luisa is exec producing
Silka Luisa worked previously on the Halo TV series as producer and writer. So we'll see how this goes...
To be fair, this includes all novels and video games too. As far as animation, I see it as: the two movies, Stand Alone Complex anime, Arise anime, and SAC_2045 anime. It isn't too overwhelming in my opinion. Although, Stand Alone Complex is like 52 episodes, which is longer than most anime I watch.
Also, Stand Alone Complex and SAC_2045 both had their episodes pared down into compilation movies (which is what the arrows represent). So you could get through those even faster if you wanted.

I'm still not very optimistic about Jared Leto being the lead in a Tron movie, but that image does look good. I'm curious what they'll do with this story.
These are all just rumors so far, so I doubt it'll happen. But if it means the Neuromancer series is actually moving forward, I'm all for that.
Honestly, that's where I'm stuck. It depends on what you want out of the show. If you want more hacking, it's minimal. But if you want more focus on an unreliable narrator with mental health issues, the show is phenomenal.
Also, there's the Alf episode in season 2
If you've ever played the game Ruiner, you've probably seen the main character's helmet say "Kill You"
That's a reference to Cyber City Oedo 808
I won't argue whether it's a good movie, I only wanted to say that it was cyberpunk. For example, having his parole officer be a robot I think represented how the robots had more rights than the people (technology leading to dehumanization) even if it didn't make logical sense for a robot to do that job. Also, magical healing booths that can cure literally every ailment within seconds through non-invasive shiny light. I can see how suspension of disbelief could get stretched thin.
Yes, I'm still disappointed they cancelled it after one season. Apparently it got renewed for a second season but then they changed their mind and cancelled it before it started filming.
I agree though, the updated take on cyberpunk with ubiquitous 3d printing set in a rural area was a great idea. Also, I liked how the "apocalypse" in the future was no single event but just a slow march of bad things one after another. Gibson always has great ideas.
