With only $7 million to go until it becomes the BIGGEST box-office success of all time, Avengers: Endgame is just about to be released in-home and on Blu-ray. To celebrate, and to thank fans for over 10 years of jaw-dropping success, Marvel Studios is launching a “We Love You 3000” tour — and it’s all for the fans!
For those few folks who don’t know, in the film Avengers: Endgame, Tony Stark’s little girl tells him, “I love you 3000.” It’s perhaps the best-known line from the film. So now, to show appreciation for the fans who have made Marvel such a mega-success, Marvel is setting off on a tour to show their fans that they love us 3000! (aw, shucks).
Here’s what we got from Marvel.com:
In celebration of the in-home release of Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Endgame, Marvel Studios and directors Anthony and Joe Russo have teamed up to launch the “We Love You 3000” Tour as a way to thank the fans who have invested so deeply in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), making it the single most successful franchise in film history!
Special guests from Marvel Studios and the MCU will visit nine U.S. cities — beginning in San Diego at Comic-Con International on July 20 and ending in Anaheim at D23 Expo 2019 on Aug. 25 — greeting and treating fans at each tour stop.
