Tribeca Film Festival Avengers Honor Real Life Superheroes | #TheAvengersEvent

April 30, 2012 By Emily 19 Comments

 

Having had my husband deploy first as a part of the military, and currently as a civilian contractor I know first hand the sacrifice these men, women, and families make everyday.

I think it is so easy to get caught up in our day to day and forget that there are still men and women who are the first responders here at home and many still overseas fighting for our everyday freedoms.

The Tribeca Film Festival choose to honor our everyday heroes at the closing night red carpet screening of Marvel’s The Avengers.

(You may remember these two from the “Captain America surprises his son after long deployment video.”

 

Everyday is a great day to thank an everyday hero.  If you see one, say thank you for their service and sacrifice.  These real life superheroes truly make them everyday.

Make sure you connect with Marvel’s The Avengers on Facebook & Twitter. You can still follow the event hashtag #TheAvengersEvent on Twitter to keep up with the latest updates.

Disclosure: Disney/Marvel provided me with an all expenses paid trip to New York City to attend an early screening of Marvel’s The Avengers. Any thoughts and opinions are 100% my own. Non-watermarked photos by Disney.

    It was so great that they dedicated the screening to everyday heroes. They may not have superpowers but they make great sacrifices.
