The People’s Choice Awards are, no question, the most reflective awards ceremony of what people actually like. There’s no panel of sneering critics and judges to give some indie film the nod over That Thing Everyone On Earth Watched.
It’s unashamedly populist, which of course, means that it is probably the best of the bunch. Not only that, but the awards are voted for by humans, as opposed to ‘experts’. It’s a lovely and wonderful thing, designed to irritate people like us.
And The People?s Choice Awards announced their nominees and, it won’t surprise you one bit that The Twilight Saga: Eclipse bagged the most nominations, as well as Justin Bieber getting a good look too.
The Twilight thing leads the pack with eight nominations -? Favorite Movie, Favorite Drama Movie, Favorite Movie Actor (Rob Pattinson and Taylor Lautner), Favorite Movie Actress (Kristen Stewart), Favorite On Screen Team (Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner), and Favorite Movie Star Under 25 (Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson).
Glee also bagged a load of nods, with five nominations for Favorite TV Comedy, Favorite TV Comedy Actress (Jane Lynch), Favorite TV Comedy Actor (Matthew Morrison), and Favorite TV Guest Stars (Britney Spears and Neil Patrick Harris).
Anyway, enough of all that. Here’s a really, really long list of nominations to read. Seriously. It’s the longest list you’ll ever read in your whole life. 10 hecklerspray points to anyone who manages to get through the list without wanting to kill themselves.

JoeMomma says
So our choices are
1) “experts” telling us whats good (Slumdog Millionare? *cough*)
or
2) The unwashed masses picking up pop drivel.
I’ll stick to being my own movie snob and liking what I want.
Lady G Music Here says
Angelina Jolie is the only female ever I think to qualify for favorite action star. She has got to do a live action comedy.
Are you voting? My choices are Inception, Twilight, and Lady Gaga.
