I dont like this very much the hunger games should lead pretty much all the movie categories!!!! i only hope Emily vancamp and pretty little liars win everything else they are nominated for!!!!!!!
Sarah Michelle Gellar deserves to win TV Actress Drama!!!
but I think losing to Leighton Meester or Lucy Hale
No One Direction nominations? But Selena gomez and the Scene instead? Really?
Revenge and Emily vancamp to win!!!!!
These awards are such a joke. LOL!
@Rodolfo Eh Why???
Hunger Games was a mediocre movie
Hope revenge and Emily win them all
The Avengers made a billion dollars in less than two week. THG is still at 600 million. I think Avengers will lead.
I agree on Revenge – blows away most shows except Nikita and Vampire Diaries.
The female hottie list is just ridiculous. Teen singers…and one model who isn’t even the hottest out there. I have a suspicion teen guys had a different list in mind.
Choice Twit – Bieber all the way!
If Jennifer Lopez can’t win fashion icon against those other losers, there’s no justice…
For Choice TV Actress: Action, I see Lyndsy and Maggie are up against each other. Maggie should win – but I predict they’ll give it to Helen Hunt, being the old actress in the list despite her robotic acting on the one episode of NCIS I bothered to watch (the HFO crossover).
For Choice TV Actor: Action, it should be either Shane West or Zac Levy.
For Choice TV Show: Action, it should be Nikita all the way! No other action show compares with the possible exception of Person of Interest. BUT with the low ratings, my guess is that one of the other shows will win, likely Hawaii Five-O since Chuck’s ratings were also low.
For Choice TV Show: Drama, Revenge should take it. My second choice would be Pretty Little Liars.
For Choice TV Actor: Drama, the list is pathetic. Keifer should take it easy.
For Choice TV Actress: Drama, Emily VanCamp should take it. Gellar – no way, I wasn’t impressed with her acting in Ringer at all. Like the show, it was incredibly dull and lacking spirit.
For Choice TV Show: Fantasy/Sci-Fi, THAT’S a real toss-up! All five of those shows are first rate. Any one of them could and should win. My guess is Fringe or TVD will take it.
For Choice TV Actor: Fantasy/Sci-Fi, Ian Sommerhalder should take it. He is what makes TVD work. Second choice would be Jensen, he is what makes Supernatural work, more so than Jared. Joshua Jackson doesn’t come close.
For Choice TV Actress: Fantasy/Sci-Fi, I go with Nina or Anna Paquin. Ginnifer Goodwin was not impressive in OUAT and frankly I think she was miscast as Snow White. Kat Graham is good, but not as significant to TVD as Nina. And Anna Torv is good, but not as good as Nina or Paquin.
For Choice Movie: Action, you can’t beat MI:Ghost Protocols.
For Choice Movie Actor: Action, Tom Cruise still has to take it, like him or not.
For Choice Movie Actress: Action, either Zoe or Paula Patton.
For Choice Movie: Sci-Fi/Fantasy – c’mon, Avengers ALL THE WAY! THE best superhero movie ever done! Blows away Hunger Games, Twilight and everything else. BUT given the popularity of Twilight, it might take it.
For Choice Movie Actor: Sci-Fi/Fantasy, Bob Downey is the ONLY pick!
For Choice Movie Actress: Sci-Fi/Fantasy, I’d go either Scarlett or Jennifer, but again given the Twilight popularity, it’ll probably be Kristen Stewart.
Them’s my picks. Like ‘em or die!
Good luck to Revenge & PLL; Emily and Lucy..
wow lot of interesting ones
Hope Fringe takes home the gold for Sci-Fi/Fantasy.
Hope Chuck gets Action Show
Jim Parsons or NPH for Comedy Actor
Zach Levi for Action Actor
Yvonne Strahobski for Action Actress
Anna Torv for Sci Fi Actress
Seeing a theme herrra?
So sad 90210 got snubbed by the awards three times in a row.
90210 always ignored deserve it because that teen show suck
Not really…Maybe not for Choice TV Drama but they’re just as qualified for other categories. Oh well…
If Twilight wins in any category, that would be a shame.
@Jon23812
Because 600 million is so bad for a movie (btw it’s actually at 632 million).
OK Teen Choice Awards officially suck! xD
Oh wait just saw FIRST wave xD sorry I have faith….sort of
@CrimTV, I never said 600 million is bad for a movie, I said that The Avengers made more money quicker, and if you round 632 million, you get 600 million.
@ James I agree but I don’t think it didn’t really deserve to been nominated this year cause the latest season was terrible but it still qualified but it totally should have got nominations last year cause the third season was good, they were totally snubbed in 2011 but still 90210 has been having more ratings than Gossip Girl but GG still gets nominations -.-
