DUDE WHAT IF YOU HAD SCISSORS INSTEAD OF HANDS LMAO

It makes a lot more sense if you've lived in white flight southern California.

You're saying Edward was a metaphor for black people? My curiosity is piqued
>>
>>62935118
Not just black people. Anyone viewed as an outsider. He's a curiosity at first but he is a problem once he starts disturbing their quiet neighborhood. It's NIMBY in a movie.

Fuckin Edward penishands looks like an ex convict literal crackhead

that is suburbs in general aint it
>>
>>62935462
Yeah, but this movie was more specific to white, southern Californian suburbs. Nowadays these suburbs are really diverse. I kinda liken white to conforming to a certain code of conduct. Anyone who doesn't is considered an outsider and is an undesirable. These are just my observations. They could have no basis in reality.

This stupid movie made me cry.

Fuck Burton.

Yea I agree. I read a good blog post about Edward scissorhands being a metaphor for autistic people.

http://community.advanceweb.com/blogs/ot_9/archive/2011/11/11/autistic-metaphors-in-edward-scissorhands.aspx

I have high functioning autism. I know it's seen as a general meme insult on 4chan, but it's a real thing. The word idiot used to be an actual medical classification and now it's used as an insult. The funny thing is, there are autists that live more fulfilling lives than most of the people on this board. On /pol/ they make fun of any non-whites, and I guarantee you lots of minorities are happier and more successful than most /pol/tards. Cue the inevitable comment "did you just compare being autistic to being black, wow you really are an autist". I'm so tired of these bullshit bait arguments on 4chan and the Internet in general, how people purposely twist each other's words.

Edward scissorhands is a great movie. You can disagree with me if you like; it means you have a different opinion, not that you're dumb. Is Tim Burton a hack? Sort of, but I'm willing to separate the art from the artist. There are some layers to this movie, and it is good.

Edward penishands is a legit porn movie.
>>
>>62935546
I honestly think it's a great movie about Southern California. I never even considered the autistic aspect of it. I feel like Burton didn't have that in mind but I guess it can be relevant to people who experience life the way Edward did.

It's a metaphor for a guy who feels like he fucks up or destroys everything he touches, and his capacity to love and be loved.

I just watched the Seinfeld episode where the barber loved this movie lol

Winona Ryder was a grandmother at the end. She married another guy, but kept loving Edward. Same with Kate Winslet in Titanic.

Imagine. You marry a non-virgin girlfriend. Do everything for her. Work all the hours there are to put food on the table and a roof over your heads. Share your deepest secrets with her. Your weaknesses and vulnerabilities. Raise children with her. Give your life to her.

And all that time, she loves another man, and would leave you in a second if she could be with him.

Films tell the truth, but it isn't pretty.

There's a lot of actual people who wrote the mental health manuals(DSMs) which exist to bill insurance.
They need to bill insurance because the person wants help.
The person wants help because something is wrong.
It can just be their personality or circumstances or genetics, and not an actual disorder but they still want the help. The name is going to change because you can have autism and range from being a mouth spewing 24/7 care project tardking to a actuary or business mogul.
I'm sure there's plenty of social outcasts who got the label or took it themselves because they're crazy. So what do you suggest we call these people, how should we sort the autists from the normals, the crazy into categories?
Why not just do the obvious thing, and say they got problems?

no
frankenstein dealt with the complicated relationship between the creator and the golem, you're just saying this because you assimilate the short frankenstein chapter of him being chased away as the whole story because you're a basic bro.

I grew up in a southern California suburb. Everyone was a spic or asian, no niggers and a few white people. But yeah, that's actually really accurate about Edward Scissorhands being NIMBY the film.
