They already fucked it up with the "Jonny Memotic" jack-in. In Neuromancer, it's trodes and a headband to jack in. I still have high hopes this will be a quasi-semi-accurate series.
History does not say this will happen. Gibson has been screwed often, as have others.
However, Foundation, while a solid and great sci-fi series, absoulutly analy fucks the Asimov books. When you compare Foundation to the novels, it's 100% shit! They could have done atompunk awesomeness! Instead, it's an emperor that is the LEAST important character in the first book.
If Neuromancer fucks the book, then fuck AppleTV and everyone involved.
Do not get me started on how shitty and almost enjoyable "Peripherable" was on Amazon. That went so far off book it hurt.
