@jamesthomson tech company: at long last we've managed to create the Torment Nexus from the classic novel "Don't Create The Torment Nexus", and we will also be adapting the novel for television
@jamesthomson now that’s what I call integrated marketing!
"Gibson has also written for Hollywood, including the screenplay for the film “Johnny Mnemonic,” based on his short story of the same name."
Loved the short story, endured the movie. This doesn't fill me with eager anticipation (YMMV).
@jamesthomson Hopeful. The Amazon adaptation of The Peripheral wasn’t terrible.
@grimatongueworm @jamesthomson it was not very faithful either, and it beat around the bush a lot
@jamesthomson "the sky was the color of Apple Vision, tuned to the latest channel"
@jamesthomson
About fucking time.
@jamesthomson
A novel set in a future dystopia where there are no mobile phones. Sounds lovely, really.
