Vote now! ROTS scores three MTV Movie Award nominations
Let's face it, the MTV Movie Awards is all about pure Hollywood crapola and celebrity suckups.  But as always, SW is my team and I want my team to win.

The bad news...MTV seemed more in the mood to celebrate sex comedies, Batman, and its slobbering love for Peter Jackson judging by its best movie nominations.  Of all the nominees, the only one I'd characterize as a pretty good movie is Batman Begins.  I haven't seen 40 Year Old Virgin but I found Wedding Crashers not nearly as funny as the hype made it out to be, King Kong needlessly too long (hey, that rhymes), and Sin City bloody awful.   And they even crammed in a nomination for sexiest performance for the hated flop Deuce Bigalow European Gigolo.  WTF?

That said, ROTS still got a respectable three nods:  best villain (Hayden...but no Ian McDiarmid, dangnabbit), best hero (Ewan), and best fight scene (Hayden-n-Ewan).  Unfortunately, I can see the MTV potheads voting for some of the other choices, like the now-annoying Brangelina in the best fight category (gag).  So we must counter People Magazine Nation and make a final stand for our beloved ROTS.  We did it for the People's Choice Awards and we can do it again:

The trophies are handed out June 3 and the show airs June 8 at 9 p.m., repeating a gazillion times thereafter.

O_o

You can vote multiple times?

"Make sure your picks win! Click here to vote again."

Clearly MTV believes in "Vote early, vote often"

I wish a Serenity actor was there for breakthrough performance, I'd vote a few hundred times if possible. They could use the free MTV advertising :p

Hayden Christensen vs. Ralph Fiennes...that's a tough one. I ended up going with Fiennes because, well, I consider Anakin a tragic hero. I agree on what you said about those other nominees though. X-(

I agree with you on that one. I'll probably end up voting for both...I can't decide, although I really liked Hayden in ROTS:x

Thanks for the "heads-up" here, MissPadme:)
