Universal City, California — "The Hunger Games" stormed the box office to the tune of nearly $400 million, and at Sunday's MTV Movie Awards, the man fans know and love as Peeta Mellark clutched a different type of riches in his hand: a Golden Popcorn. Thanks to the massive number of fans who voted for him, Josh Hutcherson took home the award for Best Male Performance at the 21st annual awards show.
"Oh, my god. I've wanted to hold a Golden Popcorn since I was like 4 years old. This is incredible," he said from the stage, as he accepted the award from Emma Watson, Logan Lerman and Ezra Miller. "It's insane too, because every single one »

As well as being one of the most entertaining nights in film, the 2012 MTV Movie Awards are the only show in the stratosphere where you can take home a trophy for locking lips with the best Hollywood has to offer. While this year's nominees for Best Kiss offer up the toughest competition for three-time winners Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, we take a look at our favorite past winners, from Spider-Man to American Pie.
2003 Winner: Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst, Spider-Man
Everyone says that the best kisses turn your world upside down, so it’s only fitting that the first smooch in a career-turning flick for Tobey Maguire and American sweetheart Kirsten Dunst was done in rain and vertigo.
2002 Winner: Jason Biggs and Seann William Scott, American Pie 2
Fresh from locking lips with Ashton Kutcher in Dude, Where’s My Car?, Seann William Scott was no stranger to same-sex spit swapping. »

Washington, June 2: Channing Tatum, who is up for the Best Kiss accolade for 'The Vow' at the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday, thinks the rain scene helped Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams' kiss in 'The Notebook'.
The 32-year-old actor isn't confident that his smooch in the film is of the same calibre that his 31-year-old rival brought to the romantic scenes.
Ryan and Rachel, 33, won in the same category in 2005. »

This year's Best Kiss nominees are as diverse as they are titillating. Whether the smooch's setting was rain-soaked, in a cave, seven years in the making or post-marriage, the nominees for this consistently popular 2012 MTV Movie Awards category all deserve credit for their wonderfully cinematic tongue tangos.
Here's a look at this year's very competitive category:
Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling, "Crazy, Stupid, Love"
Much ado has been made over the all-around swoonworthy-ness of Ryan Gosling and the all-around likeability of Emma Stone. Putting them together in a romantic comedy where their first kiss involves an assertive, rain-soaked Emma Stone getting exactly what she wants »

Channing Tatum thinks his kiss with Rachel McAdams in 'The Vow' was as good as hers with Ryan's Gosling in 'The Notebook'. The 32-year-old actor is up for the Best Kiss accolade at the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday (03.06.12) but isn't confident his smooch in the film is of the same calibre that his 31-year-old rival brought to the romantic scenes. Ryan and Rachel, 33, won in the same category in 2005 and recreated their lip lock on stage while accepting the award. He told MTV News: ''Aww, that's not fair. They have rain.

It’s all come down to this: Of all the steamy Best Kiss winners in the 20-year history of the MTV Movie Awards, you, dear fans, have decided that The Notebook and Twilight were the absolute steamiest. Not that we’re surprised, of course. We just wanted to give you a chance to say so. Now, though, as we try to see which of the two is the end-all, be-all of onscreen liplocks — and I’m nearly out of synonyms for kisses here, so thank goodness we only did three days of this poll — things are really unpredictable. Both are between two undeniably hot actors, both onscreen pairings lead to real-life romances, both movies are based on beloved novels. Both are either regularly re-viewed on DVD in your home or frequent stops on your weekend channel surfs. And both make our hearts pound and concentration difficult as we merely think about them right now. »

Channing Tatum's smooch with Rachel McAdams in "The Vow" was certainly steamy enough to earn itself a coveted Best Kiss nomination at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards. But Tatum thinks that another couple has it in the bag come Sunday, when the show goes live from Los Angeles.
"It doesn't matter. The 'Twilight' kids always sweep it," he told MTV News on Thursday night when he sat down for the "Magic Mike" MTV Sneak Peek Week event. "They sweep it every time."
Well, not only do they have competition in Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, but also Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone ("Crazy, Stupid, Love"), Rupert Grint and Emma Watson ("Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, »

Ome. Just editing photos for our MTV Movie Awards Best Kiss Smoochdown is raising the temperature in this office today. The things we do for you fans. Round 1 just finished this morning, and so we’ll say goodbye to worthy contenders Save the Last Dance, Brokeback Mountain, Independence Day and Shakespeare in Love in this grueling tournament to determine the hottest facesuckers of all past MTV Movie Awards Best Kiss winners. The victories leading up to this point were swift and decisive, but now it’s time to make some tough decisions for Round 2. Polls close Friday at 9 a.m. Et.
Blame It On the Rain: Spider-Man Vs. The Notebook
Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst defied gravity, bad guys and the admittedly creepy factor of kissing a strange boy in a dark alley for this Golden Popcorn worthy makeout sesh. In interviews, Kirsten Dunst said the rain made it feel like she was drowning too. »

The best kiss award has been an MTV Movie Awards staple since its inception in 1992. Unfortunately, for the past three years the category has been dominated by the travesty known as Twilight, which has resulted in some pretty disappointing acceptance speeches.
Sorry, Rob and Kristen. Standing awkwardly at the podium or running off into the audience to snog Taylor Lautner just isn't going to cut it. You can't half-ass these things. And chances are they'll probably win again.
That's why I suggest they take a few pointers from Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling's epic lip-lock at the 2005 awards. Accepting for their passionate make-out session in the rain from The Notebook, McAdams jumped into Gosling's arms while Maroon 5's "She Will Be Loved" played in the background. Check it out below.
And that's how you do it. Who do you hope wins best kiss at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards this Sunday? »

Once upon a time, long, long ago (Ok, four years ago), the MTV Movie Awards Best Kiss category was hotly contested. That was before the Internet rose up and demanded that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart demonstrate their dangerous love before a live audience on a yearly basis. Looking back upon the list of winners of this prestigious Golden Popcorn award, we are pretty impressed. Aliens, star-crossed lovers, American Pie stars, Will Ferrell and Sacha Baron Cohen — a lot of famous smooches have taken the prize. Check out the montage so lovingly cut together by our friends at NextMovie and you’ll see. We are starting to get antsy as we await this Sunday’s big show, so we thought we’d entertain ourselves, and you, by determining which of the past Best Kisses is the hottest.

The MTV Movie Awards turns 21 this Sunday, June 3, which means yes, our beloved awards show is finally old enough to drink.
In people years, the MTV Movie Awards still wouldn't be able to rent a car at the regular rate; but in the accolades-passing-out universe, 21 consecutive years of awarding popcorn statues to the A-list, producing the funniest movie spoofs ever, trying to wrangle Jim Carrey through his many stunts and witnessing the horror that was Borat's booty in Eminem's face has made it one of the most fun, most can't-be-missed, awards shows in all Awards Show Land.
To celebrate the upcoming show (Sunday, June 3, 9:00 p.m. Et, MTV), here's our walk down memory lane, with stops along the way to recall the 20 most memorable Movie Awards moments ever.

A new book about Ryan Gosling is coming out, and it's unfortunately not a picture-heavy sexual tell-all: It's the novelization of the Tumblr "Feminist Ryan Gosling," where authors caption Gosling's candid photos with quips about feminist ideals. Should be a pretty cute coffee table purchase. I want to know what sexy-posed Ryan thinks of Betty Friedan, personally.
We thought we'd celebrate the occasion with a look back at Mr. Gosling's ten hottest moments. It's a tall order, but also a buff one, thank God. Now, to you readers: Should I have included moments from Half Nelson or The Ides of March or The New '92 Mickey Mouse Club Croons the Hits of Marc Cohn. Hit me with the blowback and enjoy my ten selections below.

Rachel McAdams seemed to have been hitting a lull in her career in the last few years, sputtering out with the actually delightful workplace comedy Morning Glory, not to mention a string of flops before that-- The Time Traveler's Wife and State of Play, plus the virtually unseen indies The Lucky Ones and Married LIfe. But last spring's Midnight in Paris was the start of a new winning streak that culminated with this year's The Vow, a romantic drama that has actually outgrossed her monster hit The Notebook from 2004. Sure, she hasn't turned The Vow into a mega-year quite the way her co-star Channing Tatum has, but she's doing pretty well, and she looks to be continuing her hot streak with A Most Wanted Man, the John le Carre novel adaptation that already has Philip Seymour Hoffman set to star. Anton Corbijn, director of the George Clooney slow-burn drama The »

Chicago – I feel like a bit of a confession is necessary to frame my opinion of the truly awful “The Vow.” Lest you think this is just some cynical male critic, I like “The Notebook” and “The Lake House.” I even kind of like “Dear John” and didn’t hate “The Time Traveler’s Wife.” Yes, I’m a cheeseball when the cheese is well-done. I wanted to like “The Vow.” There’s nothing to like here unless you find taking talented, charming actors and making them deadly dull likeable.
Blu-ray Rating: 1.5/5.0
I have another confession — I could have sworn that “The Vow” was based on a Nicholas Sparks book and thought it was until I saw the credits on the recently released Blu-ray and DVD. It might as well have been. Allegedly inspired by true events, the film doesn’t exist without the wild success of recent romantic dramas based on Sparks’ books. »

Back in March we posted news on Richard Curtis’ plan for time-travel drama-comedy About Time. Back then, Zooey Deschanel was attached to the leading lady role. Well, rumours ‘confirm’ that Rachel McAdams has accepted the part.
McAdams, who found fame through Mean Girls (2004) and The Notebook (2004), recently finished filming for Terence Malick’s still-untitled project, so she’ll have plenty of time to work with Curtis. She’ll be starring alongside Domhnall Gleeson, who is better known as Bill Weasley in the Harry Potter franchise. Also featuring in the film will be Bill Nighy, Margot Robbie, Lydia Wilson, Tom Hollander and Vanessa Kirby.
Having already dabbled in a little science fiction writing (in 2010, Richard wrote the script for an episode of Doctor Who) he’ll be well-prepared for his own time travel project. With Curtis holding the reigns and McAdams and Nighy on board, About Time could be a huge comedy hit! »

Rachel McAdams is going to make you believe in the (sometimes supernatural) power of love … again.
The adorable star of such romantic dramas as "The Vow" and "The Notebook" is set to continue breaking hearts as she signs on to play the female lead in "About Time," according to The Hollywood Reporter.
"About Time" follows in the footsteps of McAdams' "The Time Traveler's Wife" and "Midnight in Paris" as it adds a little otherworldly spice to all the kissy-kissy with it's feel-good story of a man who can travel through time and the complications that arise when he meets the girl of his dreams.
McAdams will be playing the dream girl in question (a role to which Zooey Deschanel had previously been attached), with Domhnall Gleeson (Brendan Gleeson's son) set to play her space/time-bending suitor. The cast also includes Bill Nighy, Tom Hollander, Margot Robbie, Lydia Wilson and Vanessa Kirby. »

It’s hard to make a movie everyone can enjoy. Being all things to all people only ends up diffuse. But with yesterday’s announcement that Nick Cassavetes will direct Cali, Kristen Stewart lovers and Kristen Stewart haters can finally huddle together for a film both will enjoy.
Cali, you see, features Stewart as the victim of a snuff film. That’s right, Twilight haters. You now have a reason to put down your hard-earned lucre on a movie starring Bella. She makes a snuff film.
Does that sound harsh? If so, you need to open your eyes. There’s a war going on, out here in the trenches of the internet, between Twilight fanatics and fanatical anti-Twilight cadres.
But, at last, with this self-described “vehicle” for Kristen Stewart, Cali presents us with a workable peace plan.
There is so much more to like about this film. I’m a »
