"Avengers: Endgame," "The Lion King," and "Joker" were some of the highest-grossing movies of the year. They were also among the films people searched for the most in 2019.

Google released its annual "Year in Search" list, which reveals the top trending searches in the United States. These aren't the most-searched for films. Rather, they're the searches that saw a spike in Google traffic over a period of time in 2019.

Insider counts down the top 10 movies people were interested in this year along with the top comedies, thrillers, and romantic movies. After Disney's record-breaking box-office year, it's little surprise that many of the inclusions are from the Mouse House. Some scary films make the list, too. 

10. "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark"

The summer film was co-written and produced by horror master Guillermo del Toro. It's based on the children's horror book series of the same name. 

 



9. "Midsommar"

Ari Aster's horror film was widely buzzed about for some of its graphic and truly unexpected moments. It follows a couple who go away with some friends to a seemingly-harmless Swedish festival, but then they wind up at a cult and everything starts getting bizarre from there. 

Some were calling it one of the most disturbing films they ever saw, which probably intrigued people to Google exactly what the film was about. People were also excited the film was called a companion to Aster's previous release, "Hereditary."

7. "Frozen 2"

Disney's sequel to the highest-grossing animated movie of all time gave us stunning visuals, a salamander character to fall in love with, and two more addictive songs that kids and adults alike will be singing and humming for months to come.

5. "The Lion King"

Director Jon Favreau ("Iron Man," "Jungle Book") used a mix of virtual reality, CGI, and photoreal imagery to bring his "Lion King" remake to life. The results looked real enough to look like live-action at points. But most agreed that in making the film look too lifelike that the classic lost some of its heart.
