Shocker Alert: 'Avengers: Endgame' And 'Captain Marvel' Top 2019's Most Anticipated Movies


In news that I'm sure will send you to the fainting couch straightaway, Marvel Studios' Avengers: Endgame and Captain Marvel are the most anticipated movies of 2019. What was that about superhero fatigue? Yeah, it's a pipe dream.

According to a Fandango poll, Avengers: Endgame edges out Captain Marvel, while Star Wars: Episode IX comes in third. The same went for a survey by Atom Tickets, while in IMDB's poll the positions were reversed with Captain Marvel in the top spot. Apparently, that got Marvel so excited for the new year they dropped a slick motion poster featuring Brie Larson as the cosmic-powered hero.
No matter how you look at it, moviegoers aren't getting sick of their favorite superheroes anytime soon. If anything, Disney should be concerned that Star Wars doesn't even chart on the IMDB poll, a possible side effect of last year's underwhelming Solo movie.  [Variety/Deadline]
