Rock the Vote...at MTV.com

The 2008 MTV Movie Awards will air on Sunday, June 1st at 8:00 pm. Luckily, you still have time to make your voice heard and VOTE for your favorites. The categories are: Best Comedic Performance, Best Female Performance, Best Fight, Best Kiss, Best Male Performance, Best Movie, Best Summer Movie So Far, Best Villain and Breakthrough Performance.

My vote getters were Jonah Hill (Superbad) for Best Comedic Performance; Ellen Page (Juno) for Best Female Performance; Matt Damon vs. Joey Ansah (The Bourne Ultimatum) for Best Fight; Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey (Enchanted) for Best Kiss; Matt Damon (The Bourne Ultimatum) for Best Male Performance; Juno for Best Movie; Iron Man for Best Summer Movie So Far; Javier Bardem (No Country for Old Men) for Best Villain; and last but not least Christopher Mintz-Plasse "McLovin" (Superbad) for Breakthrough Performance. (If you vote only one category then make it a vote for McLovin!)

This year's host will be Mike Myers (hopefully he'll leave the Love Guru at home), and he'll be joined by a host of A-list celebrities who have signed on to be presenters including Will Ferrell, Jack Black, Edward Norton, and Robert Downey Jr. to name a few. You can always expect the unexpected with this show, which makes for an interesting evening. For example, last year's show had a hilarious moment between Will Ferrell and Sacha Baron Cohen from "Talledega Nights" who won for Best Kiss and re-enacted their on-screen smooch on stage, ending the moment rolling around on the floor. While Will and Sacha's kiss was memorable to say the least, my all-time favorite Best Kiss winners were Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams from "The Notebook." Their on-stage kiss was as steamy as any from the movie.

Vote for your favorites and let the best man or woman win.
