BASICALLY, IT'S JUST THIS AND THE TONYS FOR A FEW MONTHS: Hot off the wire -- the 2005 MTV Movie Awards Nominees, the award show where, if you show up, you'll win something. (Janet Jackson, Best Actress for Poetic Justice, anyone?)

Two categories of note:

BEST FIGHT
The Battle of the News Teams -- Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy
Daryl Hannah vs. Uma Thurman -- Kill Bill Vol. 2
Brad Pitt vs. Eric Bana -- Troy
Ziyi Zhang vs. The Emperor's Guards -- House of Flying Daggers

BEST MUSICAL PERFORMANCE
Jennifer Garner & Mark Ruffalo -- 13 Going On 30 --"Thriller Dance"
Will Ferrell/Paul Rudd/Fred Armisen/Steve Carell -- Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy -- "Afternoon Delight"
John Cho & Kal Penn -- Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle -- "Hold On"
Jon Heder -- Napoleon Dynamite -- "Election Dance"


The show will be hosted by ALOTT5MA un-fave Jimmy Fallon, who according to the press release, has delivered "memorable impressions of Adam Sandler, Jerry Seinfeld, Chris Rock and John Lennon" and "laid the groundwork for his transition to movies with supporting roles in the Oscar-Award winning feature film, Almost Famous, HBO's highly anticipated miniseries Band of Brothers, and Woody Allen's comedy, Anything Else."

I blocked out all memory of the last one, and had no idea about the middle one -- tell me he got killed as soon as he landed in Europe, or I'll never rent that DVD.
