To: null and void; Tell It Right
In Big, since Tom Hanks is really still a boy who looks like a man, any sex scene involving him could be considered pedophilia.

I generally liked the movie and wish that Hanks had stuck with comedies. Could never view him as a serious dramatic actor.

I liken that scene in BIG to the age inappropriate scene in Stephen King’s IT involving all the your protagonist cast. Would not be made today.

I had the same feeling with the original "Back to the Future" when the teenage future Mrs. McFly had a crush on her own son, and was being too friendly (at first) in the car with him.
