  • Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz, and Lucy Liu, Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle ("Burlesque Revue")
  • Omarion, Marques Houston, and the Lil Saints' Dance Crew, You Got Served ("The Big Bounce")

Overall, there's a lot of blah nominees. And no nomination for Freddy vs. Jason in the "Best Fight" category? Both fights from the movie were freaking awesome, and Robert Englund not getting a "Best Villian" nomination while Andrew Brynarski (who was Leatherface, if you didn't read my review) did is a bummer. I would also assume that Freddy vs. Jason would get more nominations than You Got Served, 50 First Dates, or Gothika, but that's just me.

Jessica Biel's nomination for "Breakthrough Actress" also strikes me as being odd. When you get right down to it, all she did was run around in a wet tank top and tight jeans. Any random slasher movie heroine could have done that. If they wanted to nominate somebody from a horror movie, they could have nominated Kelly Rowland in Freddy vs. Jason or Naomie Harris in 28 Days Later.

I'm sure that the stupid Lord of the Rings movie will win every single award, just like at the Oscars. I'm sorry, but a bunch of gay elves looking for a ring doesn't do anything for me. They could just go to the local jewlery store if they wanted a ring so bad. Geez.

Anyway, that's all I've got for now. Sutton out.
