In 2012, a pair of comic book movies finished at the top of the box office for the year. If a new Yahoo poll is any indication, a pair of comic book movies might also finish at the top of the box office for 2013 as well. Over 44,000 Yahoo users voted for their choice for most anticipated movie of 2013. Iron Man 3 finished in first place with 22% of the vote. Man of Steel came in a very close second place with 21% of the vote. Beyond just the fact that both Iron Man 3 and Man of Steel are comic book movies, the 2013 most anticipated results mirror the 2012 results in more ways than one. Iron Man is a Marvel Studios movie, just like The Avengers, which was the top box office movie of 2012. Man of Steel is a Warner Bros. movie based on a DC Comics property, just like The Dark Knight Rises, which was the second highest box office movie of 2012. Christopher Nolan was director on The Dark Knight Rises, and he is a producer on the Man of Steel. After Iron Man 3 and Man of Steel, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire finished in third place with 13% of the vote, Star Trek Into Darkness finished in fourth place with 12% of the vote and The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug finished in fifth place with 11% of the vote. Iron Man 3 is set to open in movie theaters on May 3, while Man of Steel is set to open in movie theaters on June 14.
