Drax in Guardians of the Galaxy has AS IMO.


Actually, Drax's AS-ish behavior could have been the result of him being in prison and forgetting how to properly interact with people over time.

If you remember, Rocket Raccoon said all of Drax's people take everything literally. Imagine, a whole planet of super strong, fierce and fearless Aspies! :D

Under the Skin

I thought it was beautifully made; visually rich, subtly underplayed performances, quite a unique experience and a fine example of Cinema as an art form as opposed to a Popcorn-munching, crowd-pleasing money-making Movie.

A definite ASD "vibe" in this one Whether it was intentional or not, it struck a chord with me.

Way too many Movies these days are remakes, rehashed concepts, unoriginal ideas and unimaginatively made, this was an intelligently structured refreshing change to the norm
