It seems since the trailer people have put IW as the fav to win the year. 

 

 

 

[Eric Duncan]

https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2017/12/28/avengers-infinity-war-black-panther-lead-fandangos-most-anticipated-poll-2018/985485001/

 

I didn't know where else to put this, but considering it's about 2018, might as well put it here.

 

Anyways, Fandango just released their Top 10 Most Anticipated polls again. As always, it's important to understand these need to be taken with a grain of salt and don't automatically gurantee a movie will be a hit or a bomb, especially as there are dozens of films out that don't have any marketing yet to excite moviegoers. Also, remember that Zoolander 2 was #9 in the 2016 list. Hopefully, Fandango will do what they did last year and give us the Top 30.

 

Anyways:

 

Most anticipated movie:

1. Avengers: Infinity War (May 4)

2. Black Panther (Feb. 16)

3. Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (June 22)

4. Untitled Deadpool sequel (June 1)

5. Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25)

6. Incredibles 2 (June 15)

7. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (Nov. 16)

8. A Wrinkle in Time (March 9)

9. X-Men: Dark Phoenix (Nov. 2)

10. Ocean’s 8 (June 8)

 

Fan favorite actress

1. Scarlett Johansson (Infinity War, Isle of Dogs)

2. Jennifer Lawrence (Red Sparrow, Dark Phoenix)

3. Zoe Saldana (Infinity War)

4. Sandra Bullock (Ocean’s 8)

5. Emilia Clarke (Solo)

 

Fan favorite actor

1. Chris Pratt (Infinity War, Fallen Kingdom)

2. Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool 2)

3. Robert Downey Jr. (Infinity War)

4. Chris Evans (Infinity War)

5. Dwayne Johnson (Skyscraper, Rampage)

 

Rising female movie star

1. Danai Gurira (Black Panther)

2. Storm Reid (A Wrinkle in Time)

3. Zazie Beetz (Deadpool 2)

4. Olivia Cooke (Thoroughbreds, Ready Player One)

5. Pixie Davies (Mary Poppins Returns)

 

Rising male movie star

1. Alden Ehrenreich (Solo)

2. Winston Duke (Black Panther)

3. Tye Sheridan (Ready Player One)

4. Levi Miller (A Wrinkle in Time)

5. Charlie Heaton (The New Mutants)

 

Most anticipated comic-book character in a standalone movie

1. Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther (Black Panther)

2. Jason Momoa as Aquaman (Aquaman)

3. Tom Hardy as Venom (Venom)

4. Sophie Turner as Jean Grey/Phoenix (Dark Phoenix)

5. Evangeline Lilly as The Wasp (Ant-Man and the Wasp)

 

Most anticipated movie villain

1. Josh Brolin as Thanos (Infinity War) 

2. Johnny Depp as Gellert Grindelwald (The Crimes of Grindelwald)

3. Michael B. Jordan as Erik Killmonger (Black Panther)

4. Jessica Chastain as the yet-to-be-revealed villain (Dark Phoenix)

5. Nick Castle as Michael Myers (Halloween) 

 

Most anticipated horror thriller

1. Untitled Cloverfield movie

2. Halloween 

3. The Purge: The Island

4. Insidious: The Last Key

5. A Quiet Place

 

Most anticipated family movie

1. Incredibles 2

2. A Wrinkle in Time

3. Mary Poppins Returns

4. Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2

5. Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation

 

 

Quick thoughts:

-A Wrinkle in Time appearing in the top 10 could be because it already has marketing, but the fact it beat out films like Ant-Man and Ready Player One seems relatively impressive.

-LOL at Cloverfield being the most anticipated horror film. Hey Paramount, I think you should start your marketing now. Also, New Mutants not making the top 5 is disconcerting. Unless Fandango put it in the superhero category instead of horror, so...

-The lack of representation of RPO outside of Tye Sheridan and Olivia Cooke is a touch disconcerting.

-I know it's because people were introduced to him in the first film, but Depp over Jordan, Chastain, and Castle is just...ew. (dcasey, don't you even dare try to make a flame war here)

 

But again, take all of this with all of the grains of salt in the world.

Mary poppins is not in the top ten?  

 

I dont know if Infinity War become the highest grossing movie of the 2018 but is the most anticipated movie by far

4. Deadpool 2 - 380

5. Solo: a SW story - 375

JW dropped 500M WW? 0.0 

[Safeno Rdz]

Is there a thread for WW predictions or should I create one?

[RichWS]

Feel pretty good about the top 8 being there in whatever order, but a number of films could beat Aquaman and Ant-Man at the bottom. 

 

1. Avengers

2. Jurassic World

3. Solo

4. Incredibles 2

5. Deadpool 2

6. Black Panther

7. The Grinch

8. Mary Poppins Returns

9. Ant-Man

10. Aquaman

This looks reasonable, since:

IW is not outgrossing Ultron

JW 2 will have an understandable drop from the first one

People are overpredicting Incredibles 2

 

Fantastic Beasts doing 1 billion would be pretty amazing for me as a huge HP fan, but I think it won't go that high.
