I’m Headed to California to Hang with Christopher, Ralph and Thanos

Christopher Robin and Winnie the Pooh

In a week’s time I will be on a plane headed to California for a rather interesting trip. I am headed out for another Disney Press trip but this time it is not focused on a Marvel movie. However, I will be talking to some folks from Marvel about the Avengers: Infinity War Blu-ray release. It is not primarily focused on an animated movie. Although, I will be meeting with people at Disney Animation Studios about Ralph Breaks the Internet, the follow up to Wreck-It Ralph, one of my favorite movies ever. No, this time I am headed out to see a Disney Live-Action movie that looks like it will be one of the most adorable ones of the Summer. I’m headed out to see Christopher Robin. I’ll be seeing the movie, not once but twice!

I’ve read the Winnie the Pooh Books and grew up watching the Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. When Eva was born so many things that we received at the shower were Winnie the Pooh related. Allison is a big fan of Winnie the Pooh and she’s quite jealous that I am going, but I think that is more so because I am going to get to interview Hayley Atwell! She plays Evelyn Robin, Christopher’s wife but we know her more for playing Agent Peggy Carter. Telling Allison that I was going to meet her almost landed me on the couch for the foreseeable future.

Jim Cummings

While I am excited to meet Hayley Atwell and Ewan McGregor, I’m really going to fanboy over Jim Cummings. Who is that you say? He is the voice of Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, too! Jim has been the voice of Winnie the Pooh and Tigger for forty years!! He’s also been in so many cartoons from my childhood and I’m so excited to meet him!

Like any of these trips there will be a ton of surprises and so much work to be done while we are there as well as when we return. We’ll be meeting so many people who are working on Ralph Breaks the Internet, interviewing many folks involved in Christopher Robin and also walking the Red Carpet for the movie. On this trip is something I’ve never done before. I’ll be visiting Madame Tussauds Hollywood for a very special Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War showcase plus an interview with Executive Producer Trinh Tran and a chance to make my very own wax Infinity Gauntlet! Making wax hands was a thing that I did in college and I’m curious as to how a wax gauntlet is going to be made.

Get Ready to Wreck…. I mean Break the Internet with Wreck -It Ralph 2

Ralph Breaks the Internet

Wreck-It Ralph was one of Andrew’s favorite movies. It is also one of mine. We used to watch it together at least once a week before he was in pre-school. I always got teary at the very end when Ralph embraces what it means to be himself. That movie had so many awesome things for a video game nerd like myself. Now, I get to enjoy what Disney Animation has created this time around. From the trailer that was released today it looks like there will be some great jokes and even Disney poking fun at itself a little bit. The Disney Princess scene alone is worth going to see. I love it when the princesses are asking Vanellope questions to try and determine if she is a princess. That is classic and hilarious. Wow! Take a look at the trailer below.

I have some additional photos and social media links as well.
