Was it said in The Dark Knight trilogy? That was probably the most hardcore of all the PG-13 superhero movies. Probably not. If you look on the IMDb Parents Guide for each movie, it may say something like “One use of the F-word” in there for “Profanity.” But I doubt they said it. EDIT: They said for TDKR: “1 not fully enunciated “f-word”. Soooo....partially? |

Why, you think adults need to say "fuck" to become proper adults? Any movie franchise that hasnt used fuck for 20 of its films clearly are catering heavily towards the children market. So basically The Walking Dead is for children. |

Could you give me examples? First Class - Wolverine tells Xavier to "Go fuck yourself". Days of Future Past - Xavier tells Wolverine to "Fuck off". Apocalypse - Magneto says "Who the fuck are you?" to Apocalypse. I don't recall it ever being said in the original trilogy. |

I'm surprised those movies got away with it. |

Just because the taboo of using curse words is lessened as you get older, doesn't mean that the use of curse words is mature. In our society its usually the opposite. As adolescences start to feel their place in the world on their own, many will start cursing to show others they are grown. Teenage years are punctuated with acne, gangling coordination, wispy mustaches, and curse words.
In real life there are many people on the spectrum of cursing. I'm on the heavy end. Neighbor down the road I've only heard curse once when we were fishing. A hook went through the padding of is thumb and partly popped off his thumb nail from the nail bed. (he said Mother Fucking Bitch if you were wondering it happened years ago but considering I heard him curse once in 20 years it stuck with me) I'd say the world is some where in the middle.
Logan if real would curse a lot I believe. So him cursing a lot in Logan isn't a stretch. I think they over played it a little bit. About halfway through it starts to get noticeable. It pulled me out of the movie a couple of times. I thought of the South Park episode when they could finally say shit. I have expected a fuck counter was gong to appear in the corner. If I think you are leaning into cursing you know it excessive.
I forgot who said but for Deadpool the people that are geared the most for the movie and comedy are the people who couldn't get in on their own. Deadpool is prime example that Curse words do not mean Mature. A lot of the time its the exact opposite.
I'm all for cursing if it fits the character or situation just don't lean into it, and don't assume just because you can curse means that it will make your movie more mature.

Any movie franchise that hasnt used fuck for 20 of its films clearly are catering heavily towards the children market. It kinda destroys the MCU is for all ages PR spin. That's implying that movies to include the word "fuck" just to be qualified as catering to adults. That's a false premise. The amount of cusswords you use has no bearing on a person's age or maturity. Not really understanding your point. Adults use profanity more than children because adults understand the connotations behind the cuss words therefore a movie with profanity will be better understood by adults. Also, the regulations of movie quality control state that pg13 movies can use the F word once. Why hasnt the MCU used it in around 20 movies? |

When we say children its under 10s mainly. Of course adolescents/teens curse a lot more than an average adult. Curse words on their own arent mature Any more than blood is, but the use of them on screen means the filmmakers are reaching out to an older demographic which is not the case with MCU movies. They ensure their content is watered down enough so that children are able to enjoy the product. |

If they were equally designed for adults and teens, there would be violence, blood, profanity, heavy themes and nudity that are allowed within PG13 limits. Xmen films all have those because they are aimed more at adult/mature audiences. Disney MCU are softer in those aspects; very mild profanity, no nudity, resistance of violence (spiderkid cant punch), removing heavy storylines (Tonys alcoholism), minimal effort blood. |

Not all adults need their movies to have violence, blood, profanity and nudity in them. They don’t need that because they don’t need to prove to anyone that they are mature unlike some people on this board who go out of their way to prove that they’re mature which actually makes them pretty immature. |

The MCU movies are produced under Disney so they aren't about to use that kind of language. Its a family friendly company.
Its not really a big deal. None of the Spider-man, Batman or Superman movies have it said either.
