My thoughts:


- How in the jesus fucking tits does MTV (Mainstream TV) pick "National Treasure 2" as the best film of 2007-8? I liked it, but I could think of thirty better films released that time period.

- Jessica Biel... for "I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry"... Best Female Performance... LMFAO!

- Johnny Depp was a villain in "Sweeney Todd?" I could have swore he was an anti-hero.

- Why does Adam Sandler get another nomination for Best Comedic Performance? Especially for a movie like that. They might as well should have nominated Dane Cook for "Good Luck Chuck."

- Hayden Christensen and Jamie Bell for Best Fight? 1. No. 2. I thought we advocated fighting...

- Oh, and glad to see "Never Back Down" get some recognition, though I did call it as an "MTV movie."

- I love the Breakthrough Performance category. Why? Because it is the only place you will see Chris Brown nominated.
