If you watch Conan you might have seen S. Green's interview about the movie. Obviously, I became curious what "The story of Luke" is all about but after seeing the trailer I caught myself thinking: "not again!" Generic and stereotypical. Well, "Adam" was generic and stereotypical but I still liked it ( ADAM - Theatrical Trailer - YouTube )
then there's another, Mozart and a whale, ( Mozart and the Whale (2005) - Trailer Official - YouTube ) I tried to like it, but couldn't. Not sure why exactly.
there's the animated film, I forgot the name.
But "A smile as big as the moon" is still my favorite. A SMILE AS BIG AS THE MOON.mov - YouTube

Anyway, here's the trailer for "the story of Luke" what do you think?

Eh, I don't think this one looks very promising. I don't think perpetuating sterotypes of aspie/autistic men as not understanding personal boundaries or how to talk to women is helpful.

Well, I've just got the Luke movie on iTunes and it was pretty nice actually, light comedy, not very realistic but nice :) I've been complaining about nothing as usual :)
