his parents keep him pretty sheltered. I think his only exposure to super hero media is the Lego Batman games, and the movies they made based on that. But I know he really likes spiderman

when should someone be old enough for the MCU? I wanted to introduce him to it at some point but I have no idea when his parents will ok it

9 is ok for most kids. Some parents are super sheltering of their kids and nothing will convince them otherwise.

to give one example of something, when he was watching The Force Awakens with my brother (his dad), my brother had already seen it ahead of time and when a certain famous scene

death of Han Solo

happened, he told him to close his eyes and then he told him what happened later

Those parents sound messed up.


I think I mostly blame his mom and my brother just kinda goes along with it. she's really against violence. she doesn't watch much violent stuff herself. she has never seen the Lord of the Rings movies for example just cause it has fighting in it

Thats pretty shitty. Hes gonna be behind his friends if theyre into the MCU movies. Most of them are kid-friendly

Understandable, but a bit too strict IMO.

I am hoping sometime in the next few years, his mom tells me he can watch them. I have a bunch of them on dvd/blu ray. I was gonna show them all to him in release order
