New Poll: Most anticipated 2012 releases

I guess one person/computer per vote is the way to go. Not sure if the voting software can get around that restriction. There is no way on earth that Expendables 2 should have an 11% lead on The Avengers which is truly one one of the most anticipated movies in 2012. Kind of surprised MIB3 is doing so poorly. Hope its producers aren't looking at this poll for what it's worth.

If a site has a polling system similar to what we have here, there's no way to get around one vote per poll per member because the system keeps track of which members have voted in which polls and kicks them out if they could even try to vote in the same poll again. And that's the way it should be. Unlimited voting for anyone/everyone is simply ridiculous because there are too many underhanded people out there. I mean, TV shows like American Idol and Dancing With The Stars allow multiple votes per person, but they only allow a limited amount of votes per phone number/e-mail address - can you imagine what the results would be like if they allowed unlimited votes per person?! Or if a country's political system allowed it??!!  

I couldn't agree more MB. The purpose of a poll is to get an accurate reading on the question/issue. This particular poll is now worthless.

Expendables shot up to #2, but it hasn't affected DS' rating at all.

Interesting - it looks like DS' percentage has hit a new high:

The Dark Knight Rises    34.5%
The Expendables 2    26.1%
Marvel's The Avengers    17.8%
Dark Shadows    12.2%
Prometheus    3.0%
The Amazing Spider-Man    1.9%
Brave    0.9%
Men in Black 3    0.7%
The Bourne Legacy    0.5%
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter    0.5%

And The Expendables 2 hasn't become #1 (yet). In fact, The Dark Knight Rises also seems to have rallied. Though none of that makes the poll any better than it was yesterday. Its credibility is still pretty much worthless. But it is nice to see that TDKR and DS/Depp fans weren't about to give up without a fight.  

What's also interesting is that the skirmish up at the top of the poll (which has brought the total votes to almost 44000, 90.6% of which are spread over the top four!) has really done a number on every film from seventh place on down, as they're all now fractions of a percent...

I think the poll will help DS at the box office: when people see that it's polling high above so many other titles, including Pixar, it'll make them curious about it.

The poll has concluded and unfortunately I cannot find the results at the website. I shot off an email to the website but I would be surprised if I got a response. In any event the poll was compromised as we discussed.

I looked at the poll yesterday morning and DS was still in 4th place with 11.1%. I don't remember the exact percentages for the top 3, but The Expendables 2 had slipped to 3rd with 22.?% and Marvel's The Avengers had regained 2nd with 23.?%. The Dark Knight Rises was still 1st with 33.?%.

Thanks MB. It would make sense if the website kept the results of the last poll up for a week.
