Mine is 11 and matrix, terminator, back to the future, arrival were all too slow. He liked the Jurassic Park books but the movie was “too hokey.”

1984 Nausicaä — The original version released in Japan. The version released to the US market is unkind to the original. The hound dog face mask seen in the anime was appropriate for surviving the pandemic.

GitS for 11 y/o?

A bit too early, IMO, a not because Major's tits, but because besides a nice artwork it would be a dull, slow, non-sensical film with 99% of the plot over the head because 11 y/o doesn't know yet and doesn't know how to process that.

But while we are here, I would advise Violet Evergarden then, it's rough sometimes, but for a kid who already seen GitS I doubt it would be a problem. It's very beautiful both visually and story wise. And watch past the credits, ffs.
