Your favourite film autist

Who is your favourite film autist Sup Forums?

Mine is split between Travis Bickle and Lou Bloom. Lou Bloom just edges it since he is able to get everything despite talking entirely in self-help seminar speak. A lotta reviews say that he's a sociopath who lacks empathy but I like to think that he just stopped caring about other people cos the world works that way.

Bump

Lou Bloom isn't autistic. Obviously some kind of insane but not autistic. Sociopathy sounds about right.

Is Forrest Gump an autism?

...

>No Rain Man
That was just gift wrapped for you user

...

He is retarded

Dude clearly is on the spectrum, he only speaks in self-help jargon, misses out social cues and doesn't recognise boundaries.

It's likely that he's a sociopath but he's definitely on the spectrum.

I feel he's a bit to intuitively good at telling people what they want to hear for that. That takes quite a bit of social awareness.

Joel Goodsen

Gelsomina from La Strada is CUTE.

You somehow missed that all of his interactions with other people were awkward as fuck and no one thought of him as being genuine? I think you might be on the spectrum my dude

Here autistic just means socially maladaptive

Javert. So autistic that rather than deal with having been wrong he just straight up kills himself. Doesn't get much better than that.

>I feel he's a bit to intuitively good at telling people what they want to hear for that.

That's just persistence. Multiple times he continues conversations that other people want to end.

In the beginning he keeps negotiating the price of the stolen metal he's trying to sell to the foreman, despite the fact he clearly doesn't want to budge on his prices.

Was he being cool or autistic?

I'm not cool, so I assume he's being cool since he gets the girl and kills the bad guy.

He was an autist right?

100% pure autist

>drills a hole into his head

How many of these films containing autist lead characters end positively for the lead autist?

Nightcrawler is the only one I can think of.

Nah, just too smart to meaningfully interact with most people. He's operating on a level where he's farther above the average man-on-the-street than said man is above his terrier. Conversation isn't impossible, it's just pointless. The couple people in the film that actually understand what he's talking about (like his mentor) he gets along with fine.

jake gy in demolition man

>gets the girl
You didnt watch the movie, did you?

Step aside, plebs

seriously?
>drive
>dude kills himself over a used up slut
>le samurai
>dude kills himself over a prostitute
why are autists such degenerate cucks?

Demolition and demolition man are two very different movies

What about Anton, was he autistic?

whatever but you know what i mean since i mentioned jake

Temporarily gets the girl.

wat?

No, I think he was supposed the personification of death.

Just a psychopath looking for an excuse to kill, so he thinks of himself as an agent of fate.

ASP

Travis Bickle is not an autist in any fucking way.... he's a misanthrope. There is a difference.

Here's what I think. I think you autists start these threads and you sort of glom onto any protagonist who's a strange man, assuming that he's an autistic fuck like yourself that can't hold a job or talk to people.

Travis can socialize just fine. He just doesn't want to. Travis has a huge amount of hate for the bulk of humanity. He tries to fit in with the woman he like's political campaign before he learns that he DOESN'T fit in.

Then, in solitude, he becomes strong.

A proud angry hermit who can hold a job and socialize just fine is not a fucking fidget spinner moron like yourself having sex with MLP plushies every night.

>Travis can socialize just fine.
He seems to have a hard time with it, and has trouble understanding obvious social cues.

>Travis can socialize just fine.

You have to be out of your mind.

>takes a woman on a date to a porn theatre
>not an autist

>Travis can socialize just fine. He just doesn't want to.

Travis is a desperately lonely man.

Oh okay, honestly, it's been a long time since I've seen that one. Like over 20 years. I liked it.... but I forgot about that part. I think I have to concede you that he's obviously on the spectrum.

>Travis can socialize just fine.

Ben Affleck in The Accountant is the GOAT autist and you're all faggots for not posting it.

Ben Affleck should be ashamed for making such trash.

You should be ashamed for liking shit. Better action movie than John Wick.

>better than john wick
Lol fag.

>social isolation/alienation is the DNA of the film

How can you forget that?

John Wick is trash user. So is The Accountant though

>muh puppy

Movie for fags. Autistic kung-fu trumps it every day. I bet you're one of these faggots claiming Lou Bloom was autistic, too.

50 minutes in he spent half the time with a whiteboard and had one 60 second shootout

Fucking dropped

Obviously not an autist but I really enjoyed Fassbender as David

It was a crap movie though.

>Travis can socialize just fine
He stutters every time and mostly just talks about drivel

Severely underrated

What film?

thief

Thief (1981)

Synopsis?

>Then, in solitude, he becomes strong.
I do not think we're talking about the same movie.

Wonder if this thread is still going to be alive when I get back from wageslavery.

ill bump it for you till you get back

Drive but older and less autistic

Thanks.

A highly skilled jewel thief, Frank (James Caan) longs to leave his dangerous trade and settle down with his girlfriend, Jessie (Tuesday Weld). Eager to make one last big score in order to begin living a legitimate life, Frank reluctantly associates with Leo (Robert Prosky), a powerful gangster. Unfortunately for Frank, Leo wants to keep him in his employ, resulting in a tense showdown when he finally tries to give up his criminal activities once and for all.

Man, he reminds me of a young Ed Harris in that screencap. Somebody should get those guys together for a young guy / old guy movie, eg looper.

Was he an autist or just a psychopath?

he's just a sperg projecting HARD because someone called his hero an autist
I mean the guy considers him a socially capable sage who's sick of humanity and achieves strenght (strenght being buying guns in his apartment)
the guy is one AR away from a school shootout

...

>No Driver as a Driver

For what purpose?

>mr robot
>patrick bateman
>Narrator
Not autist

>willy wonka
>Dumb and dumber
>legion guy
Are insane

Only low bloom is an autist here.

Isn't Gilbert Grape a highly autistic teenager?

Kathy Bates in Misery is also absolutely batshit.

MORPHEUS IS FIGHTING NEO

He had his brain forcibly reprogrammed by the government. Not sure the Manual has a classification for that (yet).

So at a stretch you could make an argument that he's both.

>Stares into the sun
>too smart
A lot of famous mathematicians were on the spectrum before anyone knew what autism was. Newton for example. The more I read about that guy the more I wonder what they called tendies in oldentimes.

Damn dude. You just got assigned homework. You're grounded from Sup Forums until you watch Thief. Thank me later.

That tangerine dream soundtrack is also legitimately one of my favorite OSTs of all time.
My dick gets hard just thinking about this movie. Based early Mann.

I pick the Certified Autistâ„¢

Lel no kiddin'.

>this is /pol autist

>/pol
Noob

>doesn't recognise boundaries
I think he just doesn't care.
>Lacking empathy and close attachments with others, use of cruelty to gain empowerment, exploitative tendencies

>keeps negotiating the price of the stolen metal he's trying to sell to the foreman, despite the fact he clearly doesn't want to budge on his prices.
>high self-confidence and social assertiveness
That's two for two.

>no one thought of him as being genuine
He didn't have to convince that black cop, he knew they had nothing on him. Also, blackmail/coercion is more consistent with being a psychopath than charming/buttering people up.

not OP but I find rainman to be extremely tedious to watch
>never go full retard
it was just too cringey to watch

maybe autism leads to sociopathy

>Was he being cool or autistic?
He was a cool guy written by an autistic.

normies have no idea his Twin Peaks '17 performance is just a re-heated autism routine from 30 years ago

>The more I read about that guy the more I wonder what they called tendies in oldentimes.
care to share more? I'm intrigued
