3. X-Men: Apocalypse | Premiere May 19, 2016

Since we are talking about comics and superheroes, we cannot ignore the novelty about mutants, which should be released already. 19 May. This film definitely could not get around the list of the 10 most anticipated, because since the release of the first film (and this is already 16 years old), this story has gained tremendous success and a large number of fans.

The picture immediately pleases us with the slogan: “Only the Strong Will Survive” – ​​”Only the strong will survive.” Well, why not intrigue?

So, the picture was taken by Bryan Singer. In the new part, the world is threatened, both the world of people and the world of mutants. Not only do they have to fight each other for a place in the sun, but also a dangerous enemy enters the arena – the Apocalypse, with whom the X-Men will have to fight. All this is complicated by a small nuance: if the mutant heroes lose, all of humanity will perish. In the fight against this enemy, mutants will need to learn much more about the origin of their species, to understand their essence in order to defeat the Apocalypse, which claims that only the strongest should survive …

2. Batman vs Superman | Premiere March 23, 2016

The planet of comics pleases its fans again. Considering the popularity of comic book superheroes, it would be quite surprising if this picture did not enter the top 10 most anticipated films of 2016.

The film was directed by Zack Snyder. Starring Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jason Mamoa, Amy Adams, Jesse Eisenberg and others.

The plot of the film is based on Batman comics: Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Second Coming, and Batman: Christmas.

While the superhero god uncontrollably performs feats and saves humanity, the defender of Gotham City decides to stop all the heroic antics of one of the most powerful, famous and revered superheroes of mankind, fearing that these very feats can become completely uncontrollable and bring harm. Thus, the picture will certainly show a colorful, dynamic, brutal struggle between the two main characters of humanity. But while our favorite superheroes will wage their “duel”, a new threat will fall on the planet that can crush the entire Earth. And here, superhero enemies will have to prioritize and decide what is more important: their own ambitions and personal grievances, or the fate of all mankind.
