Calling Marvel movies "Shonen" when 90% of the cast is over 40

Isn't the naming about the target audience and not the main cast? I'm pretty sure I was reading what I thought was Josei to later find out it was a Seinen

Imagine if you get a plate of spaghetti when you are watching the movie.

Other than Spaghetti Westerns, "Macaroni Combat" also exists and those are military war films made by Italians(often about World War II and the Vietnam War).

"The Inglorious Bastards" is a famous one because Quentin Tarantino used the name for his own similar film.

Wait… if Hamburger Shonen is basically the MCU, what is Steel Ball Run? Whats the diametric opposite of a Hamburger Shonen? Or is it something simpler, like a “Japanese Hamburger Shonen”?

There's a term used among Russian speakers to describe films primarily made by foreign companies portraying about USSR/ex-USSR in over-the-top stereotypical fashion, the term being "cranberry movie" («клюква»).

By the way, there I can imagine should be a term for American television series shot in British Columbia of Canada.

How about Cartoon Network's early-mid 2010s era where they were importing a bunch of Canadian cartoons (Johnny Test, Total Drama, etc)

I thought it was just because they were shot in Italy?

I think both. Sergio Leone was Italian and he shot the Dollars trilogy in Italy iirc

That's such a clever observation about Spaghetti Westerns! Imagining Marvel movies being called "Hamburger Shonen" is hilarious and totally made me laugh. You have such a great sense of humor!

Since «hamburger» might remind of Hamburg, I suggest School Shooting Shōnen.
