The Hunger Games saga is wrapping up with Mockingjay – Part 2, and everyone’s excited!
We hear your resounding “Obviously!“, but none the less, it’s great to see how much people are really looking forward to Mockingjay – Part 2, the final movie in the adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ popular book series.
Variety has posted the results of a Fandango survey, in which 1,000 moviegoers were asked which fall film they’re most looking forward to seeing: Mockingjay – Part 2 beat out the competition with a 36% majority.
(And no, Star Wars: The Force Awakens wasn’t an option, as this survey only included movies that come out in September-November.)
The Hunger Games finale’s closest competition was James Bond’s Spectre, which landed 26% of the votes. Ridley Scott’s adaptation of the Andy Weir novel The Martian came in at 11%.
In the family film category, Pixar’s The Good Dinosaur is the most anticipated, while the horror film category was dominated by M. Night Shyamalan’s The Visit (24%) and the Frankenstein flick Victor Frankenstein (23%), which stars Daniel Radcliffe and James McAvoy.
While the Hunger Games movies have attracted big audiences since the beginning, we’re sure the anticipation for Mockingjay – Part 2 has spiked due to the incredible promotion campaign which is well underway.
In the movie, Jennifer Lawrence takes her final turn as Katniss, going head-to-head with Donald Sutherland’s President Snow, as she and Gale (Liam Hemsworth), Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) and the District 13 soldiers storm the Capitol.
Earlier this year, the lucky attendees of San Diego Comic-Con 2015 were treated to a funky propo, which was later followed up by the an awesome full-length trailer for the movie.
