Josh Hutcherson Wants To Be Friends With Kristen Stewart

The Hunger Games and Twilight were the front runners at the MTV Movie Awards this weekend (HG won 4 and Twilight won 2). Josh Hutcherson caught up with Kristen Stewart backstage and this was the first time they were able to talk in five years.

“That was awesome to connect with her again, especially after everything that’s happened to the both of us [with 'Twilight' and 'The Hunger Games']. It’s nice to just kind of be able to talk again and hopefully have some sort of friendship. She’s fantastic.”

He talked about the competition between the two popular series/movies.

 “Honestly, you know what? I’ve never really felt it to be a competition. And I wish I could pretend like it was ’cause it’d be fun, [but] it’s so not. Their cast is fantastic, our cast is fantastic and there’s never been any bloodshed. … Not yet,” he teased.

Kristen Stewart Wouldn't Mind If "Hunger Games" Won Best Kiss

The MTV Movie Awards are Sunday and everyone can't wait to see if The Hunger Games will beat out Twilight (who has won the past four years) in the category of best kiss. While doing promotion for Snow White and the Huntsman, Kristen Stewart was asked about the "battle" for best kiss and competition with the next big franchise, Hunger Games. 

When asked if she had any fighting talk for Jennifer and Josh, Kristen told MTV.co.uk: “I don’t know. For the last few years it was ‘The Twilight Show’ and it was bizarre and this year’s gonna be fun. It’s gonna be like ‘Oh good, something different! Please God, something different’.
“I would love to see them go up there and I would love to see how someone else dealt with it to be honest. It’s like ‘are you gonna do it?’, ‘are you gonna give it to them’.”
She added: “If we didn’t win, I would actually be stoked to see like how it all goes down and how they handle it.”

 Don't forget to vote in all 9 categories! Voting ends in all but the Movie of Year and Best Hero on Saturday. The other 2 go on through the live airing on Sunday, June 3 on 9 pm et on MTV.

Can the Peeta Kiss Beat Twilight?

The MTV Movie Awards are not until June 3, but nominees are already being thrown around. Josh Hutcherson was on the red carpet at the NewNextNow awards and answered a question about weather or not he thought that his kiss between him and Jennifer Lawrence could bet Robert Pattinson (Edward) and Kristen Stewart (Bella) from Twilight from The Fab Life.

“I don’t know, they had a great kiss,” he admitted. “Theirs was so passionate. Ours was like, I was on my deathbed, wasn’t very sexy. I don’t know, we’ll see. Maybe. I’d be so lucky. One can only hope.”

Hunger Games vs. Twilight - Sales

As much as I wish all the comparisons would stop, the comparisons to the success they both have, I don't mind! Deadline released this report about how Hunger Games could top Twilight:

"With 23% ‘First Choice’ and 54% ’Definite Interest’, those are numbers every film studio can only dream about. One studied provided me with a guesstimate that the first film based on the Suzanne Collins bestselling books could open to $70+M — which would make this bigger than the the Twilight debut. “It’s every bit as strong As Twilight and, numerically, stronger,” one rival studio told me this morning. Seasonality may play a factor because The Hunger Games is opening in March, not summer. “But the numbers, while they definitely skew to young females, look strong across all quadrants.” Said another studio: “It’s a great start.”

So exciting!
