MTV Movie Awards Nominees Announced

With the Oscars over, it’s easy to forget that there’s another mediocre movie awards show right around the corner: The MTV Movie Awards. Sure, they’re definitely no Oscars, or Golden Globes for that matter, but they’re usually worth watching because they have a knack for making celebrities seem even crazier and trashier than usual. I also appreciate the MTV genre of awards shows because it allows celebrities who are otherwise irrelevant to show up to something for a night…which allows me to make fun of them. Anyway, the nominees for the 2013 MTV Movie Awards Have Been Announced, and the list is as varied and ridiculous as anyone should expect.

Movie Of The Year

Django Unchained
Silver Linings Playbook
Ted
The Avengers
The Dark Knight Rises

Prediction: I actually don’t mind any of these. I mean, each movie was epic for its own reasons. Truthfully, I’d like to see Ted recognized, but I guess I’m just a little partial to Boston.

Best Female Performance

Anne Hathaway – Les Miserables
Mila Kunis – Ted
Jennifer Lawrence – Silver Linings Playbook
Emma Watson – The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Rebel Wilson – Pitch Perfect
Prediction: Rebel Wilson FTW.

Best Male Performance

Ben Affleck – Argo
Bradley Cooper – Silver Linings Playbook
Daniel Day-Lewis – Lincoln
Jamie Foxx – Django Unchained
Channing Tatum – Magic Mike
Prediction: Well, I generally vote on male performances based on which ones I would be most likely to hook up with, so obviously Channing Tatum.

Breakthrough Performance

Ezra Miller – The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Eddie Redmayne – Les Miserables
Suraj Sharma – Life of Pi
Quvenzhane Wallis – Beasts of the Southern Wild
Rebel Wilson – Pitch Perfect
Prediction: I don’t know any of these people besides Reb, so…Rebel Wilson.

Best Scared As Shit Performance

Jessica Chastain – Zero Dark Thirty
Alexandra Daddario – Texas Chainsaw 3D
Martin Freeman – The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
Jennifer Lawrence – The House At the End of the Street
Suraj Sharma – Life of Pi
Prediction: Jennifer Lawrence! She proved to us the cardinal rule when purchasing a new home. As demonstrated by her creepy movie, and The Last House on the Left, it’s best to just buy the house at the beginning of the development.

Best On-Screen Duo

Leonardo DiCaprio and Samuel L. Jackson – Django Unchained
Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence – Silver Linings Playbook
Mark Wahlberg and Seth McFarlane (as Ted) – Ted
Robert Downey Jr and Mark Ruffalo – The Avengers
Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis – The Campaign
Prediction: Lawrence and Cooper. Although I LOVED Ted, I feel like Jen and Brad need to date, so maybe winning a Moon Man will make that happen?

Best Shirtless Performance

Christian Bale – The Dark Knight Rises
Daniel Craig – Skyfall
Taylor Lautner – Breaking Dawn Part 2
Seth MacFarlane as Ted – Ted
Channing Tatum – Magic Mike
Prediction: An obvious tie between Seth MacFarlane and Channing Tatum. Effing duh.

Best Fight

Jamie Foxx vs. Candieland Henchman – Django Unchained
Daniel Craig vs. Ola Rapace – Skyfall
Mark Wahlberg vs. Seth McFarlane (as Ted) – Ted
Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson and Jeremy Renner vs. Tom Hiddleston – The Avengers
Christian Bale vs. Tom Hardy – The Dark Knight Rises
Prediction: I can’t even try to care about this. Sorrryyyyy.

Best Kiss

Kerry Washington and Jamie Foxx – Django Unchained
Kara Hayward and Jared Gilman – Moonrise Kingdom
Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper – Silver Linings Playbook
Mila Kunis and Mark Wahlberg – Ted
Emma Watson and Logan Lerman – The Perks of Being a Wallpaper
Prediction: Jen and Brad, my new fave couple, duh.

Best WTF Moment

Jamie Foxx and Samuel L. Jackson, “Candieland Gets Smoked” in Django Unchained
Denzel Washington, “Final Descent” in Flight
Anna Camp, “Hack-Appella” in Pitch Perfect
Javier Bardem, “Oops…There Goes His Face.” in Skyfall
Seth MacFarlane (as Ted), “Ted Gets Saucy” in Ted
Prediction: Ted, because nothing says “WTF” than a teddy bear getting drunk. Also, you’re welcome MTV. I’m glad to have inspired this category.

Best Villain

Javier Bardem – Skyfall
Leonardo DiCaprio – Django Unchained
Marion Cotillard – The Dark Knight Rises
Tom Hardy – The Dark Knight Rises
Tom Hiddleston – The Avengers
Prediction: I’ll go with Leo, because I will always love Leo.

Best Musical Moment

Anne Hathaway – Les Miserables
Channing Tatum, Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, Kevin Nash and Adam Rodriguez – Magic Mike
Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson, Anna Camp, Brittany snow, Alexis Knapp, Ester Dean and Hana Mae Lee – Pitch Perfect
Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence – Silver Linings Playbook
Emma Watson, Logan Lerman and Ezra Miller – The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Prediction: I really don’t care, as long as it’s not Anne Hathaway.

The MTV Movie Awards airs April 14.
