EXCLUSIVE: That 'Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen' Clip From The MTV Movie Awards? Here It Is!

Posted 6/1/09 12:42 am EST by in Video


[UPDATE: Clip removed at request of studio.] Giant robots and Megan Fox. Need I say more?

Okay, so there are some small robots in the "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" clip that premiered tonight during the MTV Movie Awards, too -- and there's that guy who played the taxi driver in "Constantine." (I kid, I kid.) Seriously, though, Fox and Shia LaBeouf might get the top billing on Michael Bay's upcoming sequel to "Transformers," but those of us lining up for the giant robots (and maybe for Fox) won't be disappointed by the new footage that debuted tonight.

Is that Ravage? And what about the robotic fly -- an Insecticon, perhaps? We're inching ever closer to seeing the Dinobots, folks -- so keep hope alive!

Let's see your thoughts on the new clip down in the comment section, okay?

Heath Ledger Wins 'Best Villain' At 2009 MTV Movie Awards For 'The Dark Knight' Performance

Posted 5/31/09 7:45 pm EST by in DC Comics, Hot Stuff, News


Heath LedgerActor Heath Ledger, whose performance as The Joker in "The Dark Knight" already earned him a posthumous Oscar, was honored with yet another award during tonight's MTV Movie Awards.

The actor, who passed away in January 2008, was named "Best Villain" for his portrayal of Batman's clown-faced psychotic nemesis in a special MTV Movie Awards pre-show announcement. The MTV Movie Award is the latest in many honors the actor received for playing the Gotham City villain, this time beating out another nominee from a comic book movie, Luke Goss (who played Prince Nuada in "Hellboy II: The Golden Army"), as well as Derek Mears ("Friday the 13th"), Dwayne Johnson ("Get Smart") and Johnathon Schaech ("Prom Night").

It's 'The Dark Knight' Vs. 'Iron Man' At The MTV Movie Awards -- But Can They Beat 'Twilight'?

Posted 5/31/09 2:51 pm EST by in DC Comics, Marvel, Video


FROM MTV MOVIES: It's the big enchilada, the supreme dream, the prize on which the entire movie-loving world will be focusing its eyes: Best Movie at the MTV Movie Awards. Past winners have included such instant classics as "Pulp Fiction," "Titanic," "Gladiator" and all three "Lord of the Rings" movies. But which film will close out tonight's live ceremony by joining their hallowed ranks?

This year's contest promises to be tighter than Zac Efron's pants. We have the dueling superheroes of "Iron Man" and "The Dark Knight," Oscar winner "Slumdog Millionaire," the final installment of the beloved "High School Musical" franchise and arguably the most significant film of the year for teenagers: "Twilight."

In any given year, there can be a lot of great films — but only one Best Movie. So let's take a look at our picks to feast heartily on tonight's Golden Popcorn. (But remember, voting for Best Movie is open throughout the show, so it's still anyone's game.)

For MTV Movie Awards 'Best Male Performance,' It's Batman Vs. Iron Man Vs. ... Zac Efron?

Posted 5/28/09 2:01 pm EST by in DC Comics, Marvel, News, Video


FROM MTV MOVIES: If you wanted to be nominated for Best Male Performance at this year's MTV Movie Awards, it was all about embracing your inner action hero — unless you're Zac Efron.

With four of the men — Christian Bale ("The Dark Knight"), Robert Downey Jr. ("Iron Man"), Shia LaBeouf ("Eagle Eye") and Vin Diesel ( "Fast & Furious") — nominated for action flicks, Efron stands alone, thanks to reprising his role as Troy Bolton in "High School Musical 3: Senior Year."

Can 'Wanted' Star Angelina Jolie Steal The 'Best Female Performance' MTV Movie Award?

Posted 5/27/09 5:34 pm EST by in Top Cow, Video


FROM MTV MOVIES: What happens when you take five women who gave five very different performances in five very different movies? Well, you get the five ladies nominated for Best Female Performance at this year's MTV Movie Awards.

Angelina Jolie brought the action with her role in "Wanted," Anne Hathaway used her comedy chops to get nominated in "Bride Wars," and the drama queens — Kristin Stewart in "Twilight," Kate Winslet in "The Reader" and Taraji P. Henson in "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" — are all going head to head to try and secure themselves a trophy.

With an overwhelmingly strong Twilighter fanbase, it seems likely that Stewart will take home the prize come Sunday. But don't count out the fanboys who thought Jolie was the hottest femme fatale to grace the big screen since Uma Thurman in "Pulp Fiction."

Should Batman Vs. Joker (Or Hellboy Vs. Prince Nuada) Beat 'Twilight' For MTV's 'Best Fight' Movie Award?

Posted 5/27/09 1:23 pm EST by in Dark Horse, DC Comics, Video


FROM MTV MOVIES: Ever since the first caveman hit the second caveman over the head with a Brontosaurus bone, mankind has been fascinated by a fight. Man vs. man, woman vs. woman, whether it's over a spurned lover, stolen property or a simple "yo' mama" joke, few things are more exciting to watch — and once again, the MTV Movie Awards is here to recognize the most memorable brawls and battles of the past year.

Chances are you've never personally witnessed a battle between a demon and a supernatural prince; a pair of impossibly handsome vampires; a caped crusader and an anarchic clown; or two bridezillas brawling in the aisle. OK — if you went to college, you've probably seen three stoners trashing an apartment.

Be sure to head on over to the Best Fight voting page, where all of the above are currently embroiled in the final days of an even greater battle. The winners will take home the big trophy Sunday evening at 9 p.m. ET — but first, at the risk of angering some obviously hot-tempered talents, we handicap the competition.

How Does Angelina Jolie's 'Wanted' Moment Stack Up Against The Other 'WTF' Movie Award Nominees?

Posted 5/26/09 5:48 pm EST by in Top Cow, Video


FROM MTV MOVIES: Here at MTV, we embrace the outrageous, celebrate the bizarre and fist-bump everything that is thoroughly head-scratching in pop culture. That's why we've introduced a brand-new category for the 2009 MTV Movie Awards: Best WTF Moment.

The requirements for this category can no more be defined than comprehended, so let's just set the stage. You're sitting in the theater enjoying a flick, when a scene flashes across the screen that is so outlandish, so hilarious, so mind-bogglingly fantastic it becomes an instant classic. It's the scene you're talking about when you leave the theater, the scene you're telling everyone about the next day, the scene that compels you to keep asking yourself and others, "What the f---?!?"

Can Anyone Top Heath Ledger's Joker As The Best Villain Of 2008?

Posted 5/26/09 12:59 pm EST by in Dark Horse, DC Comics, Video


FROM MTV MOVIES: You can keep your namby-pamby heroes, with their chiseled jaws, steely blue eyes and frost-tipped hairdos. The rest of us prefer to root for villains — those devious, cackling, bloodthirsty beings who exist solely to take over the world and ruin the good guy's day in the process.

Once again, the MTV Movie Awards offers fans the rare opportunity to recognize the best of the worst, bringing you an evil-packed Best Villain category filled with homicidal madmen, comical-but-deadly double-agents and a killer clown from Gotham City. Make sure to cast your vote, and then tune in Sunday evening at 9 p.m. ET to watch the winner live.

But first, read on as we handicap the competition.
