I tend to geek out over a lot of things but the Marvel Universe is one thing I tend to really geek out over. I’m lucky that my husband shares this with me. We love watch all of the movies and TV shows that take place in this Marvel Universe and my son loves us for it since we tend to go overboard with buying toys for him.
So, when I got an email inviting me out to Los Angeles for an Avengers: Age of Ultron event with Disney, I couldn’t even process it right away – it was just too exciting! Now, we have our tentative itinerary for later this week and I wanted to share it with you so you can follow along on this fun event!
Thursday we will be getting a sneak peek of Avengers: Ag of Ultron. My husband can’t even handle this and has promised me that I can’t tell him a thing about it! Don’t worry, no spoilers from me!
Friday, we will get to see the latest documentary from Disneynature – Monkey Kingdom! Set in the storied jungles of South Asia, “Monkey Kingdom” showcases the adventures of new mom Maya, a clever and resourceful blonde-bobbed monkey who’s determined to give her son a leg up in the world. I absolutely can’t wait to see this and you will want to also! Plus, for every ticket sold opening week (April 17-23, 2015), Disneynature will make a donation to Conservation International to help protect monkeys and other endangered species in their natural habitats.
Check out the trailer for Monkey Kingdom below!
After the screening, we head to the LA Zoo where we will be able to get up close with the monkeys and chimpanzees there!
Then, it’s on to another exciting part – we will be visiting the set of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D! If you love the Marvel movies but you’re not watching this show, go ahead and close out my post and head to ABC.com or Hulu.com. Seriously, I don’t mind because you need to start binge-watching this show stat! I love how it ties into the other Marvel movies and there’s always moments that will have you exclaiming out loud when something comes together.
Saturday, we will be heading to Walt Disney Studios for the Avengers: Age of Ultron Press Junket. Yup, we will be interviewing most of the cast, Director Joss Whedon and Producer & Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige!
Check out the trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron below!
Now, I need my Sippy Cup Mom readers to assemble! Do you have a question for the cast of Avengers: Age of Ultron? What about Geek God Joss Whedon? And we can’t forget about Kevin Feige, the PRESIDENT of Marvel! If you have any questions, leave them in the comments below!
Don’t forget to follow along this Thursday through Saturday with the hashtags #AvengersEvent, #MonkeyKingdom and #AgentsOfSHIELD. You can also follow me on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram for live updates.
Avengers: Age of Ultron is in theaters on May 4th and Monkey Kingdom is in theaters on April 17th!

How exciting, I can’t quite make the transition into the Avengers range but I love my superheros in their won franchises, Hello Iron Man! I am a big X-Man fan too- but I know we will be giving Age of Ultron a watch, regardless.

That’s fantastic! What a fun adventure. I love the Avengers movies, they’re so entertaining.
How cool! My family loves Marvel so this would be a super fun trip to be a part of!
We LOVE all the Marvel movies! It is so fantastic that you will be meeting the cast of The Avengers as well as the director, Joss Whedon! I have always wanted to ask Joss Whedon and Mark Ruffalo if they ever considered redoing the Hulk movie. I think that Ruffalo has done the Hulk justice and would like to see a Hulk movie starring him and have the movie directed by the amazing Joss Whedon. The chemistry of the cast is fantastic. My husband and I have already set that as our date night with a babysitter all lined up for the evening. I hope you have a fantastic time!
I love the Avengers! Thor is my personal favorite!
So many fun things that you are doing! I think I would like the monkey movie the best.
How exciting your trip sounds! We’re planning to see the Avengers movie and Disneynature’s Monkey Kingdom. We love to watch Agents of SHIELD.
His jacket is super neat! I like how it has a built in mask!
Sounds like another amazing trip! You will LOVE Monkey Kingdom – we screened it on the trip last week and I can’t wait to take the family.
Sounds like you are going to have a lot of fun! That is a wonderful opportunity! Looking forwards to hearing about it!
What a cute little Avenger you have! My son is looking forward to watching Agents of Shield!
I am so excited to go and see Avengers: Age of Ultron. I love the Avengers movies. I watch Marvels Agents of Shield with my family. we love it.
