Surprise, surprise, a new survey by Fandango has pegged Avengers: Age of Ultron as the most anticipated movie of the summer of 2015. Didn't see that one coming, did you?

Considering that the first Avengers movie is the highest grossing summer movie of all time and made over $1.5 billion at the worldwide box office, any other choice besides the Avengers sequel would have been a major upset. Thousands of movie fans took part in Fandango's Most Anticipated Summer Movie Survey.

Minions was selected as the most anticipated family film, with Disney Pixar's Inside Out and Disney's Tomorrowland coming in a close second and third, while Pitch Perfect 2 was picked as the most anticipated summer comedy.

"The most exciting summer movie season in years is getting off to rousing start with Avengers: Age of Ultron on May 1, and the advance ticket sales are already through the roof," says Fandango Chief Correspondent Dave Karger. "However, there's clearly room for more, as 'Minions' and 'Pitch Perfect 2' offer laughs and thrills for families and comedy fans alike. With so many stellar choices each weekend, we expect to see summer moviegoers spending more time at the theaters than ever before."
