After a flood of responses arrived for the Pop Can 11.4 survey, the team pulled together some intriguing takeaways drawn directly from readers across North America. The entries show what movie fans in Canada and the United States are most excited to see, what kinds of projects the community believes in, and how people engage cinema as both spectators and creators. The results give a snapshot of genre preferences, star power, and year‑end momentum. The discussion has been lively, with readers weighing in on blockbusters, animated adventures, and the call to create as well as celebrate. The data behind these posts comes from a cross‑section of fans who shared their picks, predictions, and personal experiences. The aim here is to highlight the strongest signals from the submissions and offer a sense of where the conversation around upcoming releases is headed in the two biggest movie markets in North America. The Pop Can team thanks everyone who participated and looks forward to more surveys to come.
Readers are asked to name the movie they are most looking forward to in 2012. In Canada and the United States, participants weighed in with enthusiasm for a mix of fantasy sagas, animated adventures, superhero journeys, and epic quests. The question drew responses that map out the crowd’s appetite for big stories, colorful worlds, and memorable teams on screen. The results show how fans tie into the cinema calendar and what kinds of films carry momentum across North America.
From the tally, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 led the way with 29 percent of votes, followed by Madagascar 3 with 24 percent. The Avengers drew 14 percent, Ice Age: Continental Drift earned 10 percent, The Hobbit also attracted 10 percent, and The Hunger Games matched at 10 percent. Men in Black 3 trailed with 3 percent. For fans of Men in Black 3, the turnout remains modest, while the poll would favor The Avengers if the publication were to cast a vote. The numbers suggest that fans in both nations gravitate toward large‑scale ensemble adventures and thrillers with shared universes.
Industry watchers will notice that animation and ensemble adventures share strong pull, even when the list includes gravity‑defying epics and fantasy kingdoms. In Canada, as in the United States, family‑friendly titles frequently pair with high‑stakes franchises, reinforcing how audiences balance familiarity with spectacle. The mix in the 2012 lineup indicates a broad appetite for both heart and scale.
Beyond watching, the survey also asked whether respondents had ever created their own movie. The results showed 62 percent said No, and 38 percent said Yes. The response hints at a community that values hands‑on creativity, with a nod to the makers among Super 8 fans and others who have turned ideas into short films. The reach of home video and simple editing tools means more readers believe they can start a project, even with limited resources.

With warm thanks to all participants, the Pop Can team invites readers to stay in touch and look forward to fresh questions that keep the discussion lively, insightful, and fun for movie lovers across North America.
