MTV Movie Award Nominations

This is the first time I've reported on these in...years?  Once Twilight arrived on the scene, they went to total shit.  No, I won't say that.  They went to total shit maybe 2005.  Maybe.  The endless Twilight wins just made them an even bigger joke than they already were.  But these are actually not terrible this year.  In fact, they might be kinda...good.  Breakthrough Performance is the best it has been in over a decade. 

I've actually seen everything here except Breaking Dawn: Part 2.  I'm wondering if they meant to put Chastain in for Mama, instead of Zero Dark Thirty
