The 2022 MTV Movie and TV Awards are lead by Spider-Man: No Way Home with 7 nominations, including Best Movie and Best Team. The MTV Movie Awards is an annual awards event, which tabulates winners in each category by way of online votes from fans. The show has been running since 1992, typically featuring the standard Best-of categories. Over the years, though, it has added in more fan-based categories as well, such as Best Kiss, Best Hero, Best Villain, and Best Fight. The winner's trophy is a "golden popcorn" statue, which has remained the standard from the beginning.

Spider-Man: No Way Home starred Tom Holland, Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, Zendaya, Willem Dafoe, Jamie Foxx, Jacob Batalon, Alfred Molina, Marisa Tomei, and Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange, pulling in $1.8 billion at the global box office. The critically-acclaimed MCU film was a massive hit for audiences, but was shut out at the 2022 Oscars, garnering only one nomination for Best Visual Effects, which went to Dune instead. No Way Home recently debuted on Blu-Ray and digital, continuing its trail-blazing success with many calling it the best of all the Spider-Man films to date.

Notable absences from the line-up include the films that garnered many of the nominations at the Oscars this year, including King Richard, The Power of the Dog, and CODA. Denis Villeneuve's Dune won 10 Oscars in 2022 and is up for Best Movie and Best Performance for the MTV Awards, while Daniel Craig is nominated for Best Hero for No Time To Die, marking the only two other Oscar nominees up for a Golden Popcorn. Other notables for the MTV Awards include John Cena for Best Comedic Performance for Peacemaker, Kelly Reilly for Best Performance in Yellowstone, and "We Don't Talk About Bruno" for Best Song from Encanto, a notable absence from this year's Oscars.

While the MTV Movie and TV Awards may not feel as esteemed as the Oscars or Golden Globes, the one difference it has from those award shows is that the winners are decided by fan votes, rather than votes from within an organization. This makes for recognition of films and shows that fans care about, more so than the ones that hardly anyone sees, which is commonly the case with with the nominees for the "bigger" awards shows. Ultimately, they're more fun, hip, and representative of the audience, which is likely why something like Spider-Man: No Way Home is at the top of the list, given its massive popularity and success amongst fans and critics alike. The 2022 MTV Movie and TV Awards debuts on Sunday, June 5th at 8PM ET/PT.
