I see burroughs as the voice of the dixie flatline. He had that oozy cyinicism in his voice.

hmmmmm.......thats a pretty good cast there,universal.except those Olsen twins.theres no need to cast real twins,we have the technology,we can fake it.plus Angie Mitchell's a star,shes supposed to be beautiful,and the Olsen twins resemble nothing so much as a pair of shaved anorexic monkeys.

I guess my sense of a fish-eating, sloopy dirty Penguin as played by DeVito, combined with the slickness of the character's actual dialogue makes me think of DeVito...but of course there's always other options...

The problem as I see it is that whenever we have this scenario (where a woman is ostensibly looking like another woman, or becomes indistinguishable from another woman), it's always half-ass, and I don't believe it. It might be easier to take twins...any twins, and use effects to distort one's look, then slowly remove such layers to reveal Mona AS Angie at the end of the last book.

Maybe there are utterly un"discovered" twins out there doing solid, quiet stage work...or maybe you're right in that effects in toto cna get it done...bottom line: credibility. SO as I submitted, the Olsens are a serious reach; then again, maybe, because you catch them in a career moment where they WANT to break away from their youthful reputation, you get a hard-working acting effort from them in hopes of distancing themselves from their past...

Gad damn...just watched Pulp Fiction again. If there's anybody who is capable of directing Neuromancer, its definately that fellow...QUENTIN TARANTINO.
