Other Details
Parental Guidance
I recommend that parents look up each movie on commonsemsemedia.com before allowing sensitive students to view the movies. These movies contain violence, death, dark themes, language, etc. It is the parents' responsibility to ensure these movies are developmentally appropriate for their children.

I've been a die-hard MCU fan since day one. I still cry every time. Stan Lee is one of my heroes and I miss his playful interaction with his fan-base and the little nuggets of wisdom he often dropped.Reviews
