SPOILER FREE Review of Avengers: Endgame. You’re not ready.

There was never a dull moment in that theatre among the immensely invested crowd of viewers at the Walt Disney Studios last evening. You could hear and feel everyone’s excitement throughout the room during and after every single scene.

The Russo brothers did an amazing job of putting this movie together. The cast has chemistry you could feel from the way they played their respective roles. It is truly a movie any Marvel fan will watch over and over, myself included. It’s a 3-hour journey and you shouldn’t miss a single scene. Are you ready?

 

Avengers: Endgame hits theaters this Friday, April 26. Please remember that after watching the movie – #DontSpoilTheEndgame!

Avengers Happy Meals Toys Now At McDonald’s

Avengers Happy Meals Toys

Avengers Happy Meals Toys Now At McDonald's

The highly anticipated Avengers: Endgame film finally arrives this week, and even McDonald’s is celebrating! Now you can find one of 24 different Avengers Happy Meals Toys when you order a kid’s meal, while supplies last! That’s right, I said TWENTY FOUR, and there are even I.D. cards to collect on top of that.

Avengers Happy Meals Toys Now At McDonald's

There are twelve revealed “regular” toys, plus two unrevealed mystery toys. On top of those fourteen figures, there are also 10 “Team Suit” variants. The mystery heroes and variants are an exciting touch, that makes my nerdy collector soul’s heart soar. The figures have a kind of Funko like vibe to them, and I’m absolutely in love with them.

The display in the store showcases the regular figures, and shoes a preview of the Team Suit Avengers. Thanos and Captain Marvel do not have team suits, but that’s probably because Thanos is the Villain, and Captain Marvel’s Kree based suit is already pretty epic for space.

There are several different box designs, each featuring a different array of heroes. It looks like Hulk has gotten a bit of a makeover from the looks of the box too.

Each box also features a special QR code that you can scan in the app, or manually enter on the website to unlock seven characters. If you unlock the 7 Avengers to save the day you can view an exclusive behind-the-scenes video!

As I said there is an assortment of different boxes. The boxes also have Priority I.D. cards on them featuring different Avengers heroes!

The “cards” pop out so you can collect them all! I’m not sure how many there are yet, but with my obsessive collectors drive I’m sure I’ll find out soon enough.

A way to tell if you got a variant or not is that the regular suits will have the grey stone like bottom, where as the team suits will have the golden bottom. It will definitely be an adventure tracking down all twenty-four of these guys! I know who the two mystery figures are, but I don’t want to spoil anyone!

You can also check out videos of the figures, plus download Avengers: Endgame activities sheets at HappyMeal.com! Will you be assembling the new Avengers Happy Meals Toys for your collection?

Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge Reservations Will Have a 4 Hour Limit

Star Wars Galaxy's Edge

Star Wars Galaxy's Edge

Reservations for Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge have gone out to guests with Disneyland hotel reservations for the opening of the new land. Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opens on May 31 at Disneyland and it seems that Disney has already planned to by cycle out guests after a limited period of time.

Reservations that have gone out have a small fine print disclaimer that guests will only have 4 hours to visit the new land and after that, it will be up them to exit the land accordingly.  It seems this system will be based off the honor system and I am sure if you are waiting in line for the ride they will not usher you right out.

There is still a chance to get reservations for Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge! Book your hotel stay now and guarantee entry. Fill out the form below for your free quote

Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind

We have been following the progress on the Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind at Disney California Adventure and have some more pictures to share!

Updated Pictures of Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind!

This family friendly attractions takes guests flying on a memory orb through the Inside Out Headquarters. The orbs may look familiar to you, as they are a repurposed version of the now-closed Flik’s Flyers.

Updated Pictures of Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind!

Inside Out Emotional Whirwind is located on the western end of the pier, inspired, of course, by the beloved Pixar film, Inside Out. Inside Out stars young Riley as she navigates many emotions: joy, sadness, anger, disgust and fear.

Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind is a great addition to Pixar Pier. It joins the Incredicoaster, the Pixar Pal-A-Round, and Jessie’s Critter Carousel. Which emotion would you want taking you through Headquarters?
