The irreverent MTV Movie Awards are back to dole out such cheeky honors as best kiss and best shirtless performance, but also to serve as an unofficial promotional platform for the upcoming blockbuster season.
Amy Schumer is hosting the Sunday night ceremony at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles, to be broadcast live from 7-9 p.m. on MTV and VH1.
Films such as teen tear-jerker "The Fault in Our Stars," Marvel space adventure "Guardians of the Galaxy" and coed comedy "Neighbors" will be competing for the fan-voted Golden Popcorn statuettes. In addition to the kiss and shirtless categories, other wacky awards include best villain and best WTF moment. Vin Diesel, Sofia Vergara and Mark Wahlberg are among the presenters.
