So, who's going to win this year? 2018 feels a like a more open race than 2017 who delivered a very expected winner. Personally I don't see Star Wars as a big favorite this year. It's just another one of those spinoff movies. It's the fourth Star Wars-movie in a short time and it arrives only a few months after The Last Jedi, which seemed to be more loved by critics than the audience. Franchises like Avengers and Jurassic World can definitely beat Star Wars this year, I think. Although, with the fourth Avengers coming as soon as next year, that might have some impact on Infinity War. Not to mention 2018 is pretty crowded with superhero-movies in general. Black Panther feels like it will be the biggest pre-summer release. Pre-sales of tickets for that movie has been better than for any previous MCU-movie. Not impossible that it will be the biggest superhero-movie of the year, with the advantage of being released in February with very little in terms of competition. Remains also to see if Warner can find some success with Aquaman. Obviously there are a lot of other movies with potential. And China probably will deliver some succesful movies. Monster Hunt 2, for example. The first one made over $380 million a few years ago.
