Because I'm such an award show and pop culture junkie, I wanted to blog today about my nomination choices for tomorrow's MTV MOVIE AWARDS, which I will be watching with pizza and popcorn in hand!

And...the best news of all...the landlady let me move the TV from the downstairs living room (which is being converted into another bedroom) into MY ROOM!! So I got complete DIBS on the TV!! woot!!

I'm posting the category and the nominees and my choice is highlighted in bright blue. Tomorrow after the awards show, I will post the winners in Green and if I got the prediction wrong, it will be red. So, without further adieu.... my choices for the MTV Movie Awards:

MY PERSONAL PRE-SHOW TAKE
With this being the MTV Movie Awards you gotta know that it's a GIANT popularity contest. So although it won't deserve EVERY award that it and its stars will receive, Twilight is bound to SWEEP the show. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Twilight...but I also know that it's most likely going to win Best Movie...although I'm pretty sure that Slumdog Millionaire should be the winner. C'mon 8 Oscars...can't be wrong. ;) So it WILL be a Twilight sweep I'm sure, but I must say that if Rob Pattinson & Cam Gigandet beat out The Dark Knight...I'm gonna be pissed. :(

PS: Who's excited about ANDY SAMBERG hosting the show? I AM!!!

---------------------------------

MY POST-SHOW TAKE

So Twilight DID sweep the awards...and YES... I AM pissed about The Dark Knight losing to Twilight for best fight. Seriously. just...seriously. The Dark Knight guys...much better. However, I will admit that the intro to the show that Andy Samberg did was phenomenal! And my favorite part—Kristen Stewart dropping her award! HILARIOUS! 


And Jim Carrey's acceptance speech was hilarious too! Overall a pretty okay show...I've liked the previous ones better, but the overdose of Robert Pattinson has made up for it all :D
