What are the worst depictions of ASDs in movies?

All of them, They seem to be tailored more as a film to educate NT's on how we can come across "sometimes" and generally are not caring when putting very stereotypical traits on the characters, I dislike this very much, as an overportayal or misinterpretation just invites more slander and people with a low tolerance to how people just "are" to accept us.

No one in that show has autism. People believe that Sheldon is autistic but he isn't.

Also, in regards to Rain Man, I really like that movie and don't have a problem with how Raymond Babbit is portrayed. I don't know if people have the kind of outbursts that he does, but that's all I can think of that's objectionable about him. Besides, he has the best lines in the movie that few "normal" people would say.

Regarding Parenthood, I don't have many problems with Max, although I do wish that the other characters like his parents would treat him nicer sometimes and give him more respect.
