That's like saying a kitchen knife will get you addicted to horror movies. They can't get addicted to movies unless they watch them. And even then they can't. I watched movies for all ages ever since I was 5 years old and I turned out alright.
And violent PG13 movies? Really, really?
Denying kids to watch superhero movies and cartoons is not right.

The Campaign for a...seriously? So these people's goal in life is to make sure children have as boring a childhood as possible?
I absolutely guarantee that if the toys were American soldiers with real weapons than they would have no problem with it.
Really? Really!? REALY!?@?!?!?!?!?!?!?>32qmtkegl4gjky3t
My goodness, I hate things like this. It just grinds my gears when one silly group of people tries to tell another group that they're wrong&horrible, especially when it is in regards to something as miniscule as HAPPY MEAL TOYS! Do they REALLY have nothing better to do!?
Well don't get me wrong, McDonalds is a giant corporation, and is therefore evil in my eyes, but of aaall the things they wanted to harass them about, they picked thissss?? **facepalm** I'm a little embarrassed for them.
And besides, Marvel is great! How evil and narrow-minded do you have to be to want to deprive someone of something so great? Heck I think I read/watched more Marvel when I was little than I do now. Just...just UGH!!!!!
Sorry for the rant♥

I dont think its the action figures that really pissed them off as much as it is the fact that they are selling toys to four year olds that are advertisements for a pg13 movie. I can see there point. i think its dumb but I can see it.
PRE-SCHOOLER? REALLY? most pre-schooler won't even know where they come from or what 'it's clobberin time' even means. kids are fickle, they'll be interested in the toys for about half an hour, get bored and do something else leaving the toy to gather dust at the bottom of a drawerTom Goldman said:
Anybody else got a massive headdache after considering how stupid it is that the CCFC is attacking McD not for being the single most recognizable and commercialized eating establishment in the world, but for featuring superhero figures in their happy meal to promote a movie that most children will want to see anyway?
Oh yeah, and them pg-13 films are corruptin' the youth. Back in my day we had none of that, what has the world come to, violence in the streets, etc. etc...

just another way authority is taking away individual responsibility by blaming a persons actions on some percieved influence. I should really stop being surprised by these things. next thier going to tell us that the reason's serial killers kill people is because of cosmic radiation, i mean fucking seriously, get over yourselves. if the kids watch the movies it will be because they like the movies, not because they like a cheap cheezy action figure based on characters in that movie.
I bet if their parents knew what they were doing now, they'd say to themselves, "I knew we should have used protection."
To whatever uptight group or groups that are mindlessly bitching about the Marvel toys: please, and I mean this as respectfully as possible... shut up. Mcdonalds and other fast-food places have been doing this for years... and I don't seem to remember these groups complaining about Disney, Pokemon, or Avatar toys.
Many of us live in a commercial society... get used to it.
