Where'd you get the notion I watch those movies? I stay away from all of that Marvel garbage (with the exception of the old early 00's Xmen and Raimi's Spiderman because they actually felt fresh at the time).

Well, I subscribe to the unorthodox notion that one can only call a film "garbage" if they've, you know, watched it.

A very strange approach to film analysis, I know.

My son has asked multiple times to go see this movie. He likes the Rock guy and thinks that is cool.

I am not sure if I should introduce an 11 year old to the marvel movie universe. Although this may be the point to jump on the next phase.

I can't imagine FFFS has much in the way of MCU references. At best it might have alt versions of MCU characters (maybe a nod to Pym or Stark as a competing scientist or inventor?) but otherwise it should be pretty isolated.

If he's interested in this one then go for it. If he likes it and wants more then you can always go back to the older ones with him. Like you say this one's probably about as good a jumping-on point as you're going to get for this point.
