Have you seen the movie Oceans Twelve? personally dont think its a good movie, i liked the first one but not this one. Though there is this one scene that I like, its here in youtube: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyzLHFkdv6E[/youtube]
It's when this famous thief goes through all those lasers and succesfully steals a precious item.
I noticed that in the past I wouldnt have appreciated this scene, and I attribute it to an aspie trait. I would have said "Naah that's crap, that can't even happen because laser detection requires the laser to be still, not in movement, so it's not real, its a mistake of the director and scriptwriter blah blah blah"
But now I notice I can appreciate it more. I don't really care if its realistic or not. I notice that sometimes aspies (like me) miss the point of things, just because something doesn't fit our logic. I've seen the "two sides", and I dont know why but I think ive outgrown (at least a little) this narrow perspective where everything has to have a direction and sense to be worth of appreciation. I'm still very bounded by logic and stuff, but not as much as before, and I like it, feels better. I dont know if someone else has experienced this.
(bonus aspie trivia: what do you think that the expression of julia roberts means after the french guy says "dont tell me you dont know how to do that")
