The Force Awakens and Deadpool to compete for the love of teens at MTV Movie Awards

The MTV Movie Awards turn 25 this year, which means that any day now they’ll be out of our houses and off our family insurance plans. They have, after all, shown considerable maturity, managing not only to avoid controversy over lack of diversity among the nominees, but also to omit any bleeped-out swears (in the names of the categories, anyway). But this year’s slew of award categories still hints at the adaptability and irreverence of youth, as room was made to acknowledge the “Best True Story” told on screen (which they haven’t just confused with Best Documentary), while the hard work of screenwriters and cinematographers continues to go unrecognized. But don’t worry, all this growing up doesn’t mean that the Best Kiss will go unrewarded (or un-hooted).

Star Wars: Episode VII—The Force Awakens leads the cinematic pack with 11 nominations, which is one for almost every category. The film was shut out of the aforementioned Kiss category, as well as Best Documentary, True Story, and Comedic Performance, though we’re pretty sure that a little creative thinking could have led to some nominations in those areas as well (does our Poe/Finn slash fiction count for nothing?). The Force Awakens’ heaviest competition comes from the merc with a mouth, as Deadpool received eight nominations, including three for Ryan Reynolds’ acting performance, which is a feather he can put in his cap along with the “viable franchise lead” one.

Elsewhere on the list of nominees, MTV remembered that Avengers: Age Of Ultron was a thing last year, and has nominated the film in five categories, including Movie Of The Year, a competition from which Mad Max: Fury Road is conspicuously absent. But Imperator Furiosa herself, Charlize Theron, could win for Best Hero and/or Best Female Performance, as well as arm-wrestle Tom Hardy to see who takes home the statuette for Best Fight.

The 25th MTV Movie Awards will be hosted by two of this year’s nominees, Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart, and will be held on April 10 at 8 p.m. EST. The complete list of nominees is below, and is mostly bereft of awards singling out people who doffed their clothes onscreen. Awards shows aimed at teenagers—they grow up so fast.
