This Sunday June 1, the MTV Movie Awards will strike again and while they aren't the most prestigious awards around, they at least get creative with their nomination categories. My favorite: Best Kiss.
Here are the nominees:
- Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey, Enchanted
- Briana Evigan and Robert Hoffman, Step Up 2 the Streets
- Shia LaBeouf and Sarah Roemer, Disturbia
- Ellen Page and Michael Cera, Juno
- Daniel Radcliffe and Katie Leung, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
I would love it if Ellen Page and Michael Cera won and then reenacted their kiss during the acceptance speech.

If you're looking for something to watch during future girls' nights with you mom, check out the Gilmore Girls complete series collection, which includes all 153 episodes of the show on a whopping 42 discs. Granted, the packaging is a little cheesy, but that's a small sacrifice for the chance to watch this memorable mom and daughter grow up together.

Every year, Variety issues their Women's Impact Report in which they highlight women in the entertainment industry that they think deserve some praise. From industry executives (like United Artists bigwig Paula Wagner) to household names (like Angelina Jolie), the list spotlights some strong, smart, intriguing ladies. For the next few Wednesdays I'll focus on some of the women who I find particularly noteworthy as well.

To my surprise, I actually enjoyed this weekend's new romantic drama No Reservations, all about a chef at a fancy New York restaurant. My enjoyment wasn't entirely dependent upon the fact that there was food involved, but I have found that I am often drawn to movies that include luscious shots of delicious-looking food. Even better are those movies, like Waitress, that use food as a kind of structural device (Keri Russell's character thinks up new pies that reflect what's going on in her life).

Still looking for a special way to celebrate Mom this Sunday? Fox Searchlight, the studio behind the clever, funny film Waitress, has cooked up something very cool. On Sunday, 100 theaters around the country will sponsor special screenings of Waitress and offer bags of goodies, including a pre-baked Sara Lee pie, to everyone who attends.

Not long ago, the New York Times published an article wondering why Hollywood is "short on female power," stating that while there are some "female films" out there, it's still a "boys market." Agreeing with half the article (the "boys market" part), Cinematical writer Monika Bartyzel responded specifically to a female producer's comment bemoaning the fact that there aren't as many Devil Wears Pradas or The Break Ups thusly: "Maybe that's because women are more than flipping crazy ex-girlfriends or girls starving their already-thin frame to fit into the latest fashions? Could it be, perchance, that women want films that give them more credit?"

Way back around Sundance time I told you about Waitress, a sweet little indie film about love and pie. It stars Keri Russell as diner waitress Jenna who bakes pies and gives them endearing names. Unhappily married, she tries to come to terms with her new-found pregnancy when a new man comes to town, turning her little ol' life upside down.
