Online movie ticket retailer Fandango dropped their Most Anticipated Fall & Horror Movie Survey this AM with Disney’s The Marvels and Lionsgate’s The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes leading the list. Both respectively hit cinemas on Nov. 10 and 17. With Dune: Part Two out of the way on Nov. 4, you’d think someone would move up their blockbuster and take advantage of another week of Imax.
