Good job Ben Affleck

Batman: My parents died and now I'm a hero

meh, so 1980's

The Accountant: I have a high functioning form of autism which means I have an extremely narrow focus and have a hard time abandoning tasks once I have taken them up. I have difficulty socializing with. other people, even though...*dramatic pause* I want to. (literal quote from the movie)

The Accountancy lobby failed to make accounting sexy as they planned yet again. Will nothing make people want to try double entry?

The story was shoe-horned in at the last minute through a series of flashbacks with a really bad "twist"

Before Rob Reiner and Terrence Malick did a ghost-re-write of Good Will Hunting, Will was supposed to get recruited by the CIA to become a savant superspy action man.

Hey, you guys remember that time when Damon and Affleck got Oscars for best screenplay?

I also knew there was a rumor damon and affleck didn't really write GWH but never knew it was Malick who did and that would explain it

I wish they would make more good films about simpletons. Possibly about a soft spoken gorilla man who has a pet cat and saves it from a fire or something.
Then some kids steal his cat and he goes on a heart breaking rampage across the backwards county he lives in to find his kitty.
Then when he finds the kids he realizes they are taking much better care of the cat and he realizes the cat us better off with the kids so he leaves empty handed.

No, actually, he was just an actor pretending to be blind. Hard to believe, I know. He was just that good.

I read an interview with him once that outlined his method: He just imagined his eyes were closed, even though they were actually open. Absolutely brilliant.

This movie's premise sucked because autistic people are never portrayed as cool or pretty because they're always seen as failures in mankind. If you just took out Affleck's lame autistic protagonist, you'd have a meh rip-off of American Sniper.
