I doubt all men will vote for Star Trek either.

All the nerds will vote for Star Trek

The jocks however are more likely to vote for The Hangover, something more rowdier than Star Trek.

If those stupid Twi hards ask what “team” we are on. perhaps we can have our own teams like these.

If you like Star Trek

Team Kirk (Pine)
Team Spock (Quinto)
Team Scotty (Pegg)
Team Nyota (Saldana)

If you like The Hangover

Team Phil (Cooper)
Team Stu (Helms)
Team Doug (Bartha)
Team Alan (Galifianakis)

@36 I’m suprised Pixar’s Up wasn’t nominated. Up’s Carl and Russel were more critically acclaimed than Star Trek’s Kirk and Spock

Star Trek will get the older audience votes.

The Hangover is likely to get votes from young males

The other 3 will split female votes.

Should Star Trek lose, who better to lose to than The Hangover. Both are the only sensible choices.

#30 – given the favorite movie winners form previous recent years, it is not likely. Consider: 2009 – The Dark Knight; 2008 – Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End; 2007 – Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest; 2006 – Star Wars: Episode III: Revenge of the Sith

It would appear the awards tend to go to the movies that made the most money and have the largest fan base – as well as those that have the most kids voting.

Since the franchise category is new, Trek may have a shot at that, but Harry Potter could easily sweep it and despite its horrible reviews, Transformers could be a wild card.

#33 He said it on his show Californication. Well the character he plays on the show did, Frank Moody.

I like Trek’s chances against Twilight. Yes there are a lot of passionate young girls that will vote over and over. But we can take ‘em! And remember, despite the rabid fan-base, it’s box office gross was ONLY $191mm while Trek hit $258mm. Yes, multiple viewings were a factor for both films but critical mass is clearly on our side.

@5 I’m sorry, but you’re banished from this site forever. ;) (The Hangover was hysterical!)
