This year might see the first ever meeting between The Dark Knight and the Man of Steel in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, as well as the heroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe going up against each other in Captain America: Civil War, but if Fandango’s audience poll is anything to go by, 2016 is going to be Star Wars’ year again, with the ticket service naming Rogue One: A Star Wars Story as the year’s most anticipated movie.
Here’s the full top ten…
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (December 16)
Finding Dory (June 17)
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (March 25)

Captain America: Civil War (May 6)
Star Trek Beyond (July 22)
Independence Day: Resurgence (June 24)
X-Men: Apocalypse (May 27)
Zoolander No. 2 (Feb. 12)

Of course, you do have to question the accuracy of these polls, given that one from last year suggested The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 was more anticipated than Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which was clearly utter hogwash.
