    I almost fell for "marvel <- c(characters, movies, releaseyear) but then thougt "c for concatenate" and picked "data.frame" instead of "c" (the other two options are so obviously wrong). 

    It seems to me amazing that someone  picked the first option as that is clearly not an R statement;  it could be worse, it's only 1 out of 96 so far.

    I'm a less surprised but still rather shocked that one person in 6 so far has picked the last option; even if one is going to go for guesswork it's probably sensible to assume that constructor operators creating new structures will generally not come on the LHS of an assignment operator, especially not one written "<-".
