STEWART'S SNOW WHITE & 'BREAKING DAWN 2' SWEEPS THE EMPIRE CINEMAS ALTERNATIVE MOVIE AWARDS








The UK's Empire Cinemas hosted their first Alternative Movie Awards to give fans a voice in this awards' season as a complement to the Oscars, Golden Globes and others.

Regardless of its criticsKristen Stewart's final installment of the Twilight franchise - Breaking Dawn Part 2 - continues to show that it has strong popularity worldwide by sweeping the awards.  

Empire Cinemas asked their theater patrons to vote for the films by using unconventional categories.  Breaking Dawn 2 won in categories such as Best Fight Scene, were it beat out strong competition (Skyfall and The Dark Knight Rises)

Jon Nutton, Marketing Director for Empire Cinemas, said:

“The awards season is such a talking point in the film and cinema industry. We’ve created The Empire Cinemas Alternative Movie Awards to help celebrate film even more, but to also give film fans a voice and pick the winners of awards not generally seen at the big ceremonies. 

Twilight was a huge success for Empire Cinemas and it’s clear to see our cinemagoers agree, voting it the winner of five awards. 

Neither SWATH nor Chris 'The Huntsman' Hemsworth's body could not hold off Twilight's powerful force.  However, Universal's Les Miserables did win for Best Tear-Jerker.

Stewart and Breaking Dawn 2 will most likely continue to pick up more fan-voting awards (MTV Movie Awards, Spike Scream Awards) as it closes out its final run.  

The DVD is set to be released this weekend in a last hurrah with nationwide fan events for its midnight release.
