Just once I would like a movie about a computer person that doesn’t focus on their over-exaggerated autism

Every character in the matrix has turboautism.

Well that's because the main character is a trans girl, and who's ever heard of a trans girl who wasn't autistic?

Or at the very least make it some different type of autism expression, give me the tired autist who is very aware of social situations but doesn't give a shit anymore. Or even manic goblin autist who has found stability in a form of controlled chaos, no I don't mean in a manic pixie dream girl sorta way I mean they shot put a fucken wrench through a wall to kill a fly that's been annoying them for the last 40 minutes sorta way.

Anti-Trust (2001). Also has early GNOME in some shots as well

How about Goldeneye? Two computer people in main roles and I don't think either can be really called autistic.

Boris is sure interesting, but not autistic. Maybe dips into the spectrum at most.
