Was recently diagnosed with a mild form of Aspergers. What are some films/television shows to watch that are good for Aspergians/Mildly Autistic people?
Last time I got banned for this post and I don't know why? I'm not a troll or shilling or anything. I'm seriously suffering from Aspergers and just want /tv/'s opinion.
/t.v.'s general film recommendation lists still apply
if you can find a copy

Thomas the Tank Engine.
Hey Arnold!
Thunderbirds.

If you got a card you could go to the autism screenings of films
they are cheaper and give you free juice and biscuits and tea if you are not all over the place autistic

when I was between 3-5 I had a few thomas vhs that were pretty much exclusively the only things I would watch on rotation. I probably saw each episode 100 times without getting sick of it
is there some science as to why sperg kids love it so much?

>is there some science as to why sperg kids love it so much?
Yes. A British autism charity authored a report onto why they love it, and it essentially boils down to the following
>easy to identify emotions and expressions
>repetitive and formulaic speech
>little movement on screen at any one time

Asperger was removed in the DSM-5.
It's no longer a diagnosis.

As a sperg I unironically like most capeshit. I like fast paced stuff like Fury Road, Crank 2 or Hardcore Henry, and colorful surreal stuff like Dune '84, Speed Racer or Fifth Element.

same here fellow sperg. I LOVED the John Wick films and I love visual shit like Bladerunner, Ghost In the Shell and The Revenant. Stuff that hits you really hard I love most.

It got rolled into autism, so lots of people still say it as shorthand for very low level socially focused autism.

What? That makes no fucking sense.

They got rid of the separate diagnosis because they found Aspergers was just a variation on autism. A person who might've been diagnosed with Aspergers now is either put into ASD or Social Communication Disorder.
As a fucking retard myself:
I like Wes Anderson movies. They have nice, symmetrical shots and lovably quirky characters with heartwarming relationships that make me hate myself slightly less.
Stuff by Stanley Kubrick and Terry Gilliam because they're full of minute details that make me feel smart for noticing them, rather than just pedantic.
Maybe The Social Network because it implies that I might be able to get rich off of my autism if I was smart, came from a good family and was preferably jewish.
On that note also the show Silicon Valley. Which you should probably watch anyway because it's a pretty funny show.
