MTV destroys my faith in my generation yet again.....

Did you think Awards Season 2007 was over? Then you'd be wrong! We still have the MTV movie awards, which are what the Oscars would be if they had "hip" categories like "Best Kiss" and "Best Fight", and were mainly geared towards representing commercial success. The nominees are....

BEST MOVIE
Juno
Transformers
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
I Am Legend
Superbad
National Treasure: Book of Secrets

I can understand all of these making it on here except National Treasure. How did The Bourne Ultimatum not get in here of all places? I could see Juno winning, but given how much MTV pimped out Transformers at last year's ceremony, I'd say it has this one locked up.

BEST MALE PERFORMANCE
Will Smith -- I Am Legend
Shia LaBeouf -- Transformers
Denzel Washington -- American Gangster
Matt Damon -- The Bourne Ultimatum
Michael Cera -- Juno

I'm surprised that Johnny Depp didn't get in for Pirates 3 after he won this award for the first two films. Everyone save for Michael Cera is predictable (damn you Will Smith!!).

BEST FEMALE PERFORMANCE
Ellen Page -- Juno
Keira Knightley -- Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
Katherine Heigl -- Knocked Up
Amy Adams -- Enchanted
Jessica Biel -- I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry

I'm confused as to how Jessica Biel got in here, but congratulations Ellen Page.

BEST VILLAIN
Johnny Depp -- Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Denzel Washington -- American Gangster
Angelina Jolie -- Beowulf
Topher Grace -- Spider-Man 3
Javier Bardem -- No Country For Old Men

While I'm thrilled to see that they were cool enough to nominated Bardem, Grace and Jolie are just laughable.

BEST COMEDIC PERFORMANCE
Johnny Depp -- Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
Adam Sandler -- I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry
Jonah Hill -- Superbad
Seth Rogen -- Knocked Up
Amy Adams -- Enchanted

How on earth did Ellen Page NOT make it in here of all places?

BEST FIGHT
Matt Damon vs. Joey Ansah -- The Bourne Ultimatum
Tobey Maguire vs. James Franco -- Spider-Man 3
Hayden Christensen vs. Jamie Bell -- Jumper
Sean Faris vs. Cam Gigandet -- Never Back Down
Chris Tucker & Jackie Chan vs. Sun Ming Ming -- Rush Hour 3
Alien vs. Predator- Aliens vs. Predator -- Requiem

did anyone even see Alien vs. Predator...?????

BEST KISS
Shia LaBeouf and Sarah Roemer -- Disturbia
Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey -- Enchanted
Daniel Radcliffe and Katie Leung -- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Ellen Page and Michael Cera -- Juno
Briana Evigan and Robert Hoffman -- Step Up 2 The Streets

BREAKTHROUGH PERFORMANCE
Zac Efron -- Hairspray
Seth Rogen -- Knocked Up
Jonah Hill -- Superbad
Michael Cera -- Superbad
Chris Brown -- This Christmas
Nikki Blonsky -- Hairspray
Megan Fox -- Transformers
Christopher Mintz-Plasse -- Superbad

again...WHERE IS ELLEN PAGE?
