Story Concept: Conclave

Story Concept: Conclave

Collectively it is called The Magnavox.
It is everything there is: galaxies, suns, planets, moons, the history and the past. From the times lost to history of lone wanderers and ancient magic, to the present of bold struggle against oppressive regimes, to the grim future of stalwart survivors against incredible odds. The threads of legend and destiny unite every warrior, soldier, humble hero, wizard and rebel who has ever lived.
This is one of a thousand tales, a thousand tales contained in its telling. For no life, good or ill, exists without affecting the paths of others.
These are the tales of The Conclave.

April 12 1861
It started with the bombardment of Fort Sumter, the Great War between the North and South of the burgeoning United States. The Union and The Confederacy would yield no ground without bloodshed, but beneath the bravado and bugle calls a machine old as civilization began working behind the scenes. Where there is war there is a need for weaponry, and where that need exists there will be men who bend their wills to devising the most hellish of contraptions, perhaps at first as patriots but more often then not devolving into merchants of death.
One such merchant was Proctor Sab

Sonic FF Ep5: Illusions 6Ext. Medical Tent – Night

Mina is holding a small oil lamp and approaching the door to the medical tent, looking apprehensively around in the dark. She pokes her lamp in the door and sees only darkness beyond.

MINA: Tails? Tails I had to see if you were all right! You know if I said anything I just wanted to clear it up, start afresh. I might not have taken your illness seriously enough, if so I’m sorry!

She takes a few gingerly steps inside.

MINA: Dr. Murphy? Are you there? It’s me, Mina, The one you brought out of a coma about three times?

Suddenly she YELPS and stumbles, her lamp SHATTERING on the ground.

Neuromancer fan movie posterby *jarredspekter

Digital Art / Photomanipulation / Sci-Fi

Based on the William Gibson novel, a classic of the cyberpunk genre.
--
Here displayed is Millia Jovovich as one of the most iconic characters in Neuromancer as well as the Sprawl trilogy in my opinion: the mirror-eyed, razor nailed street samurai Molly Millions.
--
A fake movie trailer I made: [link]
--
There is a real Neuromancer movie slated for upcoming production, directed by music video director Chris Cunningham.

For those who don't know, Neuromancer is a dark science fiction story, one of the classics, about a hacker named Henry Chase. Chase was a corporate saboteur who used the fully interactive internet of the future called The Matrix (yes, the original Matrix!) to steal from other corporations, until his employers discovered he was embezzling from them. As punishment they burned out the part of his nervous system that allowed him to 'jack in' and left him without work. But then a bio-mod with mirrored eyes and a mysterious broker named Amitage give him an offer he can't refuse: a fix for his system so he can hack again if he agrees to use his recovered ability to hack into one of the most powerful corporations in the world.
He agrees, but probably didn't suspect that decision would see him double crossed and discovering the truth behind government and military secrets, conversing a new kind of artificial intelligence, and running for his life from hitmen, security guards and ninjas!
If your fond of science fiction, film noir, the movie Blade Runner, or just a good heist story give it a look see

I hope the new movie does this seminal work justice

You are wrong it is done by Vincenzo Natali (director of Splice and Cypher), Chris Cunningham was the first choice of Gibson but he is also comfortable with Natali doing it after looking his films.
Hope they don't screw it - the Neuromancer triology was the foundation of everything in this genre, Matrix wouldnt be there without it.

Another movie they HAVE TO DO is "Snow Crash" by Neal Stephenson.

But even if they get good I hate the moment walk out of the cinema and some wanna-be-expert says "oh this and that they all stole it from Matrix"..

Oh, man, I LOVED This trailer. I have the book myself.

*jarredspekter Jan 28, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

Thank you for enjoying it

You're a Gibson fan too?

*marcoasalazarm Jan 28, 2012

Cyberpunk in general, actually. I also have 'The Difference Engine' and 'Count Zero', by Gibson.

Um...constructive criticism then?

~magbhitu Nov 25, 2011

the art is great - its just not corresponding to my metal picture of Molly/Sally. starting with the razor nails - read the book again - they come out from underneath her burgundy fingernails and are not steam-punk visible mechanisms. Nothing in Gibson's description of Molly would lead one to think of her as a waif as you're depicted. The pertinacious influence of anime/manga influenced feminine stereotypes corrupts the concept outside the author's intended vision.

I know

I honestly just liked the image

I took a lot of liberties.
I agree, not the best, but it did seem to interest people in a story not a lot of them knew well

I just watched your fake trailer and commented on it (I'm IcePirate3 on You Tube). Like i said there, it's the best fake Neuromancer trailer I've seen by far. Love it.

I also love this poster. It's one hell of a lot better than the crap I threw together for mine, anyway.
Milla Jovovich was born to play Molly, as many people agree.

*jarredspekter Aug 31, 2011 Hobbyist Writer

Thanks a lot!

I'm very glad to meet another William Gibson fan ^_^
I didn't think your poster was bad at all. Much more comprehensive then just Molly there XD
