Plenty of golden popcorn-shaped prizes were handed out at the 22nd annual MTV Movie Awards, but it was the summer movie teasers and the stars attached to them that really got Hollywood a buzz.

Rihanna and Eminem to perform at this year

"The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" earned the prize for best film at Sunday night's MTV Movie Awards, besting even top Oscar winner "12 Years a Slave." "Hunger Games" stars also took home some of the night's biggest awards. Jennifer Lawrence won best female performance and Josh Hutcherson was voted best male performer. Mark Wahlberg collected the generation award.

"I'm a lucky guy in so many ways to be able to work with so many talented people, to have gone from being incarcerated to having a one-hit rap career to having an underwear modelling career," Wahlberg said.

Host Conan O'Brien kicked off the ceremony by walking out to a track by rapper Rick Ross. O'Brien joked that he was almost injured by the show's flashing pyrotechnics. Jonan Hill won for best comedic performance for his role in "The Wolf of Wall Street."

"It was an amazing year but first I would like to thank my hero, Martin Scorcese. The greatest person I've ever met. The greatest director of all time," Hill said.

Later, Rihanna took to the stage with Eminem to perform their hit "The Monster."

The MTV awards had some stiff competition from other networks on Sunday night, including the latest instalment of HBO's popular "Game of Thrones" and the final season premiere of AMC's "Mad Men."
