Twilight has the most nominations at this year's MTV Movie Awards with 7 nominations. Slumdog Millionaire follows in a close second with only 6 nominations. Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner were all nominated for their performances in the movie. Rob grabs two more nominations for best fight and best kiss, which obviously meant that Kristen had one more nomination.

High School Musical finally qualified for a nomination considering the third in the franchise was the first to hit the big screen. Unfortunately, we won't be able to tell who's the better teen heartthrob, Robert Pattinson or Zac Efron because they aren't nominated in the same category. Robert qualifies for a Breakout Male Performance while Zac Efron does not because he already won last year for his performance in Hairspray. They are, however, both nominated for best kiss so at least we'll get to see who has better moves.


Cam Gigandet wasn't nominated for Best Villain but he did get a nomination for Best Fight, which he won last year with Sean Faris for their fight in Never Back Down. Shia LaBouf was nominated several times last year for both Transformers and Disturbia but lost in all his personal categories. He probably won't fair much better this year with Eagle Eye being his only movie to get a nomination.

Slumdog Millionaire has a fighting chance in some of the categories but we expect Twilight to take the major ones. Transformers won Best Movie last year and only a blockbuster like Twilight could follow in its footsteps.

The MTV Movie Awards air live Sunday, May 31 at 9PM ET with host Andy Samberg. Check out a full list of the nominees below. Vote over at MTV to help your favorites win!
