Even though we're still not over the travesty that is the Best Kiss category, it is time to celebrate the annual MTV Movie & TV Awards.
A sillier, much more irreverent distance cousin of the Oscars, Globes and Emmys, this awards show celebrate the moments a more youthful audience loves about movies and television. That includes the biggest scene stealers (where the nominees range from Tiffany Haddish and her grapefruit in Girl's Trip to Dacre Montgomery as the new bad boy in Stranger Things) and best villain (which hilariously slots Adam Driver as Kylo Ren against Bill Skarsgard as Pennywise). Additionally, the show also made a bold change last year when it dispensed with gendered categories and combined the Best Actor and Best Actress category, a tradition it continues this year.

Basically, this show is fun with a capital "F," especially considering the fact that Haddish herself is hosting (and that Black Panther is leading nominations with a whopping seven popcorn trophies in their reach). So, in between laughing at Haddish's Kardashian jokes and fanning out over the cutest couples, we'll be updating this list indicating your 2018 winners.
Bold indicates the winner in that category.
