MTV Movie brawl
It's time for MTV's annual Movie Brawl and this year it's up to YOU to nominate the competitors! The Movie Brawl will determine the most anticipated film to hit theatres in 2014 - and we know that for US it's obviously Mockingjay Part 1! So, let the nominations begin!
The Details from MTV:
To kick things off, we want you to let us know what movie you're most looking forward to in 2014 through Twitter using hashtag #MTVMovieBrawl and in the comments HERE. We'll tally those votes, and release the thirty-two top vote getters on January 13 at 9 A.M. on our official MTV Movie Brawl bracket. And then it's time to let the brawling begin.
Just to be clear that it is, in fact, up the fans to decide this thing: in 2012, Robert Pattinson's Cosmopolis was the surprise winner, narrowly beating The Hunger Games. So in 2013, it was time for revenge when The Hunger Games: Catching Fire took the top spot. This year, with Pattinson reteaming with Director David Cronenberg for Maps To The Stars, will they take back the top spot from The Hunger Games: Mockingjay -- Part 1? Or will a third contender enter the ring?
The idea is pretty simple: 32 movies released between January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2014 enter; one movie leaves. Until the end of January, you let MTV know by voting on the MTV Movie Brawl page what should stay and what should leave. Every few days, MTV will eliminate half the movies until one victor remains to reign supreme.
Go forth and tweet Mockingjay Part 1 with the hashtag #MTVMovieBrawl!

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire Wins The MTV Movie Brawl!
From MTV:
After "The Hunger Games" lost a knock-down, drag-out fight at the hands of Robert Pattinson fans and the indie surprise "Cosmopolis," "Catching Fire" has risen from the ashes — and 10 million votes — to claim this year's title as the most anticipated movie of 2013. The victory, however, does mean a disappointing end for "The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones," the hotly anticipated YA adaptation and the rookie star of the bracket.
Sam Claflin, one of the newest cast members to join the series, shared his excitement about the Movie Brawl victory exclusively to MTV News. "I'm so happy and proud to say I'm a part of 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire,' " he said. "Just want to say a big thank you to all the fans worldwide for voting. I'm thrilled to know they are just as excited as I am for the next chapter."
