[avengers infinity war thanos]Marvel The summer movie season is underway, and the long-awaited "Incredibles 2" opens in theaters this weekend. But where did it rank among the most anticipated of the summer? Film database website IMDb provided Business Insider with a list of this summer's most anticipated movies, encompassing those released between April 27 and September 3. The list includes movies currently in theaters like "Avengers: Infinity War" and "Deadpool 2," and movies still to come like "Ant-Man and the Wasp" and "Mission: Impossible — Fallout." These are the top 10 summer movies that had the most pageviews on the site as of April 12 (before the summer movie season began). The data is based on IMDb's "MOVIEmeter ranking," which is updated weekly. Despite a poor box-office performance (it's expected to lose at least $50 million for Disney), "Solo: A Star Wars Story" landed toward the top of the list. HERE'S THE COMPLETE LIST OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED MOVIES OF THE SUMMER: 10. "THE MEG" Warner Bros. RELEASE DATE: August 10 DESCRIPTION: "In the film, a deep-sea submersible—part of an international undersea observation program—has been attacked by a massive creature, previously thought to be extinct, and now lies disabled at the bottom of the deepest trench in the Pacific…with its crew trapped inside. With time running out, expert deep sea rescue diver Jonas Taylor (Jason Statham) is recruited by a visionary Chinese oceanographer (Winston Chao), against the wishes of his daughter Suyin (Li Bingbing), to save the crew—and the ocean itself—from this unstoppable threat: a pre-historic 75-foot-long shark known as the Megalodon. What no one could have imagined is that, years before, Taylor had encountered this same terrifying creature. Now, teamed with Suyin, he must confront his fears and risk his own life to save everyone trapped below…bringing him face to face once more with the greatest and largest predator of all time." 9. "MAMMA MIA! HERE WE GO AGAIN" Universal RELEASE DATE: July 20 DESCRIPTION: "Ten years after Mamma Mia! The Movie grossed more than $600 million around the world, you are invited to return to the magical Greek island of Kalokairi in an all-new original musical based on the songs of ABBA.
