Watch the Marvel Movies in Order

Last updated: August 2022

Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is a huge franchise that has had a such an impact on the film industry and pop culture.  Since the first Marvel movie was released, there have been over 20 theatrical releases with more on the way! With so many new movies in the Marvel family, it’s hard to know the best way to watch the Marvel movies in order. Plus, if you’re anything like me, you probably got behind when they were originally released!

How to Watch the Marvel Movies in Order

There are two ways you can watch all of these action-packed movies: either by their release date or by following the MCU timeline in chronological order.  If you go by release date, the order will be quite different than watching them in chronological order. You really can’t go wrong, but if you watch them in chronological order, it’s easier to understand the backstory of each movie and the characters. I love the way that so many of these movies and characters become woven into other films and shows over time. I think it makes the storytelling so special!

Marvel Movies in Order of Release

If you are more inclined to go by the MCU release date timeline, then here are all of the Marvel movies in the order they hit the theaters.

  • Iron Man — 2008
  • The Incredible Hulk — 2008
  • Iron Man 2 — 2010
  • Thor — 2011
  • Captain America: The First Avenger — 2011
  • The Avengers — 2012

  • Thor: Love and Thunder — 2022

Marvel Movies in Chronological Order

The most accurate, and my personal favorite, way to watch the Marvel movies is chronologically, in order of the timeline.  I have put together a Marvel movie watcher’s PDF that will help you out if you choose to watch the movies this way. You’ll be able to follow along perfectly and not miss a single detail! There are some differing opinions on where a few of these movies fit in to the timeline, but I trust the order Disney suggests through their Disney+ streaming service. This list also includes the Marvel shows that have been released on Disney+ too!

Here are the Marvel Movies in chronological order:

Disney World Height Requirements Guide

Visiting Disney World is often a dream come true for kids and adults alike. But, if you are traveling with small children, you might encounter some challenges when it comes to height restrictions on rides at Walt Disney World. To help with your planning, let’s talk about the Disney World height requirements.

While Disney tries to accommodate all guests, they do have certain height requirements for each of their popular rides. So, before your family sets out on a trip to Orlando, create a list of the must-do rides for kids, and be sure to choose one that has a minimum height requirement that everyone in your family can meet.

Disney World Height Requirements

The best way to avoid any surprises when it comes to height restrictions at Disney World is to do some research ahead of time or consult with a cast member upon arrival.

Each of the rides at the Disney World parks has its own set of height requirements. However, they are not too different from each other. If you can’t find your child’s height on this list, check with staff at the park for more details about specific attractions.

Height Requirements for Disney World Rides

The general height requirement for most rides is 40 inches or taller. Some rides have a height requirement of over 48 inches, when kids can pretty much ride any of the Disney attractions.

If you’re looking for a list of Disney World height requirements for rides, below is a comprehensive guide. The pages include a list of rides at each Disney World park, starting with attractions that don’t have a height limit and can be enjoyed by the whole family or travel party.

Next, the rides are listed by both inches and centimeters so you can look at the specific measurements to ensure your child meets the height requirement.

How to Plan a Vacation for All Ages

Having the height requirements for Disney World before you travel will help you easily plan the best trip for your family.

To make a park plan for your group, create a list of rides for each person and their corresponding height requirement. That way, you can choose an adventure that’s suited to the majority of your party.

You can also have a planning “party” with the whole family to talk about what to expect & that there are some rides that are for older kids. Then share the rides that are going to be perfect just for them on this trip.

Talking about the rules about the rides can eliminate some of the frustration once you are in the parks.

How to Handle Ride Requirements

To help more visual children, consider printing out the Disney World Height Requirements Guide below and taking the pages with you to the parks.

For each ride, indicate if there is a height requirement and how tall your child needs to be in order to meet the Disney World height requirement. Let them mark which rides are perfect for them and cross out the rides that don’t work for their age and height yet.

Then, when you arrive at one of the attractions with younger children that don’t meet the requirements for specific rides, you’ll have an easy solution! Just explain that this ride isn’t on their special list, but there are so many others they CAN do.

Utilize Rider Switch

If there are rides that some of your party is able to ride, but others aren’t you can utilize the rider switch (or child swap) option at some rides. You will be able to split your party into two groups so one adult can ride while the other stays with the smaller kids and then switch out. Want the detailed instructions? Check out this link and see what rides allow you to use this option!

I hope that these Disney World height requirements & the guide help you plan a magical trip for your whole family. Happy planning!

Hyatt Regency at Orlando International Airport

Thank you to the Hyatt Regency for generously hosting our stay! All opinions are my own.

Hyatt Regency Orlando Airport Hotel

Did you know there is a hotel inside the Orlando International Airport? The Hyatt Regency helps make travel stress-free and way more enjoyable! Since Orlando is just a short drive from us and they tend to have much better flight options than our smaller airport where we live, we booked our flights for our trip out west to fly in and out of MCO. Not only were we able to enjoy a little bit of Orlando but we were able to start our vacation a little bit earlier!

This hotel is a great option if you have an early outgoing flight or late incoming flight, a cruise out of Port Canaveral, or other plans within driving distance of Orlando. The staff was wonderful and we really enjoyed our time spent here.

The Hotel

The hotel is located in the main terminal of the airport. You can view the security checkpoint entrance and airline check in from the hotel. You will take the elevator or escalators to the 4th floor to find the lobby and hotel check in. This is also the level with the hotel bar and McCoy’s Bar and Grill restaurant.

Check in is 4:00 pm; check out is 12:00 pm.

Our Room

Our room was located on the 6th floor both nights, near both the outdoor pool and indoor fitness center. We stayed in a King room that featured a balcony, the perfect spot to view some beautiful sunsets.

The bed was so comfortable! I also loved all of the counter space and bathroom layout. There was a double vanity in the bathroom as well as outside of it. The room had a seating area and a small desk. Even though we were on vacation, this was a great space to get some work done! The rooms are newly renovated and soundproof.

Parking

You are able to park your car easily when you stay at the hotel. The hotel offers discounted self-parking and valet for guests. Please note, the discount is only valid for the date of your hotel stay.

For valet parking, follow the signs to Terminal B and you will find the hotel entrance on Jeff Fuqua Boulevard. For self-parking, follow the signs to Terminal B Self-Parking Garage and then Terminal Top Level 4. Make sure you’re paying attention since the lanes and turns happen quickly. Be sure to pull a ticket and see the front desk for in and out access, they will give you a pass and you’ll need this to receive the discounted rate for the nights you stayed at the hotel.

To find the best rates on long term airport parking (for overnight parking longer than stay date) visit their offers page for details on 4 nights or 7 nights Park, Stay and Go Packages.

Self Parking:

$12 / Overnight Guest

$19 /Daily/Non Guest

Valet Parking:

$16 /Overnight Guest

$25+ /Daily/Non Guest

Dining

This hotel features two main dining locations. The Lobby Bar is a great place to enjoy a small plate and a beverage before your flight or gather with the rest of your travel party after you arrive.

McCoy’s offers a wide variety of menu items focusing on fresh, locally sourced ingredients. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We had two meals here and absolutely enjoyed everything! From sushi to pizza, even a Hot Honey Chicken Club, it was all delicious.

If you have late-night cravings or want to order an early breakfast or lunch in the privacy of your room, check out the McCoy’s To-Go menu. All-day in-room dining includes sandwiches, salads, entrees, and their sushi menu.

(The Hemisphere restaurant located on the 9th floor is currently closed.)

Amenities

There is a nice outdoor pool area located on the 6th floor with runway views. The same floor also features an indoor, 24 hour fitness center. You are able to print boarding passes before leaving the hotel as well.

There is also a Day Pass option available to purchase if you have a long layover and want to have a room for a nap and a shower.

Flight Arrivals and Departures

We had an early flight out but instead of having to drive straight to the airport, we drove down the night before and stayed at the hotel. Once we woke up on the morning of our flight, we just had to get our bags down to the main terminal which you can see from the hotel lobby and then head through security. This saved us so much time and hassle! Our return flight arrived in the evening and after long day of travel, it was the best feeling to get our luggage up to our room and crash.

You can check out some more videos and photos from our stay on my Instagram story highlight. If you have more questions about our stay, feel free to reach out!
