Just when you thought awards season was over, MTV unveiled its nominees Wednesday for the 2015 MTV Movie Awards, with Oscar no-shows “Guardians of the Galaxy,” “The Fault in Our Stars” and “Neighbors” leading the pack with seven nods each.

Oscar winner “Birdman” didn’t make the cut for the MTV honors, which are known for off-beat categories such as best kiss, best fight and best shirtless performance.
Bradley Cooper was nominated for best male performance for “American Sniper,” along with Chris Pratt for “Guardians of the Galaxy,” Ansel Elgort for “The Fault in Our Stars,” Miles Teller for “Whiplash” and Channing Tatum for “Foxcatcher.”
