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.

Lou Bloom isn't autistic. Obviously some kind of insane but not autistic. Sociopathy sounds about right.
Nolan Price
Is Forrest Gump an autism?
Grayson Collins

Oliver Clark
>No Rain Man That was just gift wrapped for you user
James Torres

Julian Kelly
He is retarded
Jordan Morris
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.
Grayson Lewis
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.
Jose Cooper
Joel Goodsen
Levi Reed
Gelsomina from La Strada is CUTE.
Kevin White
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
Joseph Myers
Here autistic just means socially maladaptive
Julian Sanchez
Javert. So autistic that rather than deal with having been wrong he just straight up kills himself. Doesn't get much better than that.
Joseph Phillips
>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.
Jack Parker
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.
Landon Parker
He was an autist right?
Jeremiah Bennett
100% pure autist
Sebastian Long
>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.
Zachary James
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.
Jordan Morales
jake gy in demolition man
Adam Rivera
>gets the girl You didnt watch the movie, did you?
Ryder Lewis
Step aside, plebs
Ayden Cooper
seriously? >drive >dude kills himself over a used up slut >le samurai >dude kills himself over a prostitute why are autists such degenerate cucks?
Nicholas Torres
Demolition and demolition man are two very different movies
Nolan Diaz
What about Anton, was he autistic?
Parker Morgan
whatever but you know what i mean since i mentioned jake
Carson Lopez
Temporarily gets the girl.
wat?
Brayden Rivera
No, I think he was supposed the personification of death.
Lucas Taylor
Just a psychopath looking for an excuse to kill, so he thinks of himself as an agent of fate.
Lincoln Baker

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.
Juan Davis
>Travis can socialize just fine. He seems to have a hard time with it, and has trouble understanding obvious social cues.
Cooper Cook
>Travis can socialize just fine.
You have to be out of your mind.
Parker Reyes
>takes a woman on a date to a porn theatre >not an autist
Julian Bailey
>Travis can socialize just fine. He just doesn't want to.
Travis is a desperately lonely man.
Andrew Miller
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.
Caleb Powell
>Travis can socialize just fine.
Kevin Wright
Ben Affleck in The Accountant is the GOAT autist and you're all faggots for not posting it.
Charles Cooper
Ben Affleck should be ashamed for making such trash.
Ethan Ward
You should be ashamed for liking shit. Better action movie than John Wick.
Kevin Campbell
>better than john wick Lol fag.
Hudson Moore
>social isolation/alienation is the DNA of the film
How can you forget that?
Elijah Barnes
John Wick is trash user. So is The Accountant though
Henry Adams
>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.
Asher Bell
50 minutes in he spent half the time with a whiteboard and had one 60 second shootout
Fucking dropped
Ethan Kelly
Obviously not an autist but I really enjoyed Fassbender as David
Jayden Cruz
It was a crap movie though.
Christian Rivera
>Travis can socialize just fine He stutters every time and mostly just talks about drivel
Jose Thomas
Severely underrated
Christian Wilson
What film?

Wyatt Reyes
Wonder if this thread is still going to be alive when I get back from wageslavery.
Ayden Thomas
ill bump it for you till you get back
John Watson
Drive but older and less autistic
Samuel Cooper
Thanks.
Aaron Sanchez
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.
Ethan Wood
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.
Henry Davis
Was he an autist or just a psychopath?
Charles Rodriguez
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

Only low bloom is an autist here.
Christian Long
Isn't Gilbert Grape a highly autistic teenager?
Kathy Bates in Misery is also absolutely batshit.
Charles Evans
MORPHEUS IS FIGHTING NEO
Jayden Barnes
He had his brain forcibly reprogrammed by the government. Not sure the Manual has a classification for that (yet).
Jeremiah Howard
So at a stretch you could make an argument that he's both.
Ethan Gomez
>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.
Tyler Moore
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.
Brayden Walker

>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.
Jace Turner
not OP but I find rainman to be extremely tedious to watch >never go full retard it was just too cringey to watch
Dylan Perez
maybe autism leads to sociopathy
Asher Smith
>Was he being cool or autistic? He was a cool guy written by an autistic.
Bentley Watson
normies have no idea his Twin Peaks '17 performance is just a re-heated autism routine from 30 years ago
Oliver Roberts
>The more I read about that guy the more I wonder what they called tendies in oldentimes. care to share more? I'm intrigued
