Teens picked the nominees and we'll see how they voted, too, this coming Sunday, August 16. We've got Avengers versus Hunger Games and Selena taking on Swift, so it's not like the voting could have been easy either!
Some of the choice categories - they're even called "Choice"! - include:
Choice Movie: Action/Adventure
Furious 7
Insurgent
Kingsman: The Secret Service
San Andreas
The Maze Runner
Tracers
Keep in mind, the results here have little to do with box office and even less with how good the actual film was; this is all what is the hottest commodity, and/or has the hottest commodity star(s). That being the case, while "Kingsman" should win, look for "Furious 7" to take this, if only as a way to honor its fallen star, Paul Walker.
Choice Movie Actor: Action/Adventure
Ansel Elgort – Insurgent
Dylan O’Brien – The Maze Runner
Paul Walker – Furious 7
Taylor Lautner – Tracers
Theo James – Insurgent
Vin Diesel – Furious 7
Same logic applies here, but will it be the posthumous win (Walker), or one for co-star Vin Diesel, riding quite the resurgence, and it can also still be seen as tribute?
Choice Movie Actress: Action/Adventure
Alexandra Daddario – San Andreas
Jordana Brewster – Furious 7
Kaya Scodelario – The Maze Runner
Maggie Grace – Taken 3
Michelle Rodriguez – Furious 7
Shailene Woodley – Insurgent
No such luck for the "Furious" ladies, in my opinion; look for Woodley to either still with the Y/A darling, or maybe even a dark horse in Scodelario, especially with the eagerly-anticipated "Maze Runner" sequel hitting theaters in a month.
Choice Movie: Sci-Fi/Fantasy
Avengers: Age of Ultron
Cinderella
Mad Max: Fury Road
The Hobbit: Battle of the 5 Armies
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1
Tomorrowland
"Avengers," hands down.
Choice Movie Actor: Sci-Fi/Fantasy
Channing Tatum – Jupiter Rising
Chris Hemsworth – Avengers: Age of Ultron
George Clooney – Tomorrowland
Josh Hutcherson – The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1
Liam Hemsworth – The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1
Robert Downey Jr – Avengers: Age of Ultron
Kinda surprised Captain America himself (Chris Evans) didn't make the cut here. Feels like a toss-up between Hutcherson, who was barely in "Mockingjay Pt. 1," and Tatum, who was in a movie that was barely seen. But "Magic Mike" might lend some magic to the voting, whether they're teens or not.
Choice Movie Actress: Sci-Fi/Fantasy
Mila Kunis – Jupiter Ascending
Britt Robertson – Tomorrowland
Jennifer Lawrence – The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1
Lily James – Cinderella
Scarlett Johansson – Avengers: Age of Ultron
Mackenzie Foy – Interstellar
Lawrence or Johansson.
Choice Movie: Drama
Fury
If I Stay
McFarland, USA
The Age of Adaline
The Longest Ride
The Theory of Everything
This is anyone's guess - the box office disappointment "If I Stay" could eke out a victory here, thanks in large part to its young cast and bittersweet love story.
Choice Movie: Comedy
Aloha
Dumb and Dumber To
Night At The Museum: Secret of The Tomb
Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2
Pitch Perfect 2
The Duff
I'd like to see "The Duff" win here, but it's up against that juggernaut "Pitch Perfect 2."
Television Choice TV Show: Drama
Castle
Empire
Grey’s Anatomy
Nashville
Pretty Little Liars
The Fosters
It has certainly been the year of "Empire," but here? Critics mean little, so it could succumb to "Pretty Little Liars" and its substantial fan base.
Choice TV Show: Comedy
Austin & Ally
Awkward
Girl Meets World
New Girl
The Big Bang Theory
Young & Hungry
If the younger kids voted more heavily here look for an "Austin & Ally" or even "Girl Meets World" to take it. But if the older teens took the time, "New Girl" should nab it.
Choice TV: Animated Show
Adventure Time
Family Guy
Gravity Falls
The Regular Show
The Simpsons
Star Wars Rebels
Toss-up between "Adventure Time" and "The Regular Show."
Choice TV: Reality Show
American Idol
Dance Mums
Keeping Up With The Kardashians
Lip Sync Battle
MasterChef Jr
The Voice
The KUWTK fatigue is settling in, so I'd go with either "Lip Sync Battle" here or some throwback love for the stalwart "Idol," especially with its final season approaching.
Music Choice Male Artist
Ed Sheeran
Jason Derulo
Nick Jonas
Pitbull
Sam Smith
Shawn Mendes
Smith has had quite the year, but the kids still love Jonas.
Choice Female Artist
Ariana Grande
Demi Lovato
Iggy Azalea
Rihanna
Selena Gomez
Taylor Swift
Swift.
Choice Song: Group
5 Seconds of Summer – ‘What I Like About You’
Echosmith- ‘Cool Kids’
Fall Out Boy – ‘Centuries’
Fifth Harmony – ‘Worth It’
Maroon 5 – ‘Sugar’
One Direction – ‘Steal My Girl’
It should go to Fall Out Boy, it could go to Fall Out Boy, but 5SOS fans are a fevered lot.
Choice Comedian
Amy Schumer
Ellen Degeneres
George Lopez
Jimmy Fallon
Jimmy Kimmel
Kevin Hart
This is Schumer vs. Hart, plain and simple. Schumer's huge summer blockbuster "Trainwreck" notwithstanding, her humor does skew much older, so Hart could take this.
