2005 MTV MOVIE AWARDS: AND THE NOMINEES ARE...
"Best Frightened Performance" and "Best Video Game Based on a Movie" are two new categories that will be introduced into the awards show. The Best Frightened Performance will award the actor who consistently over the course of the film gave the most convincingly frightened performance. "The MTV Movie Awards celebrate all the films, stars, and memorable moments from the past year from Mean Girls to Will Ferrell to Napoleon Dynamite's dance scene - everything that our audience looks for in a great movie," said Van Toffler, President, MTV Networks Group, LOGO and MTV Films. "The introduction of two new categories this year clearly demonstrates that this show constantly evolves to address our audiences' tastes."
"Jimmy makes the MTV Movie Awards better. He's funny, he's original, and his enthusiasm is contagious," said Joel Gallen, Executive Producer. "He's already emailed me tons of ideas and we can't wait to get started."
Tenth Planet Productions will once again join MTV to produce, Joel Gallen will executive produce with Salli Frattini serving as Executive Producer for MTV. Rick Austin and Josh Greenberg will co-produce the show. Kathy Flynn will serve as Event Producer.
