MTV has provided an analysis of the results, citing the facts that the higher stakes, the lovable factor of Alfred’s (Michael Caine) voice-over versus Nick Fury’s (Samuel L. Jackson) voice-over in “The Avengers,” and the villain Bane (Tom Hardy) gave “The Dark Knight Rises” the edge on “The Avengers.” However, MTV also gives points to…

Drama, drama, drama. And no, I’m not referring to the genre. We’ve got folks at odds all throughout the industry. India’s Central Board of Film Certification isn’t happy with the level of nudity in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, but David Fincher isn’t willing to make the required cuts, so it looks like Dragon Tattoo will be a no go for India. Similarly, Hungary gave a rather naughty Shame poster the thumbs down.

Hugo topped the pack with 11 honors while The Artist followed…
