It began with 32 movies. Five additional films entered the fray through the Wild Card round. Several weeks and head-to-head battles later, it all comes down to two: "Cosmopolis" versus "The Hunger Games."

In one corner is the Robert Pattinson-starring thriller about one extremely bad day in Manhattan. In the other, the story of a young woman forced to take extreme measures to protect herself and the people she loves. One film an underdog in this competition, the other a frontrunner from the very beginning. Both have had extraordinary arcs throughout the MTV Movie Brawl 2012, but only one can walk away with the title of can't-miss movie of the year.

The Movie Brawl's final round is open for voting until 5PM EST on Monday (January 23). Only then will we finally know which movie stands at the top of the heap in the brawl for it all!

The MTV Movie Brawl 2012 is officially on! After the initial play-in, wild card, Sweet 16 and Elite 8 rounds, we're finally down to only four movies competing to be crowned the can't-miss movie of the year. As always, the choice remains entirely up to YOU. Which movie will win the brawl for it all? Vote at MTV Movies Blog and make your choice known!

Ladies and gentlemen, your trip to Mars has been postponed — all thanks to an unassuming archer named Katniss Everdeen.

"John Carter's" valiant quest for MTV Movie Brawl 2012 supremacy has finally come to an end, after rounds and rounds of the Taylor Kitsch-led movie surpassing expectations and cracking into the Elite Eight. Alas, in the end, it was no match for the top-ranked "Hunger Games," which continues on its expected path towards the final round.

Tributes have had an easier time in the brawl for it all than most competitors, but the "Hunger Games" may have finally met its match in the form of a former boy wizard. Indeed, "The Woman in Black" has been on a tear, unexpectedly toppling "Snow White and the Huntsman" in the Sweet 16 and "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" in the Elite 8. Daniel Radcliffe fans can hold their heads high as they march forward through the brawl. But with an epic battle between "Hunger Games" and "Woman in Black" now underway, the decision of who moves onto the final round is completely in your hands. Who continues in this competition: the fan-favorite, or the dark horse?

Against all odds, defying all expectations, "The Twilight Saga" is no more… in the MTV Movie Brawl 2012, that is.

In the second Robert Pattinson vs. Robert Pattinson duel of this competition, it was the fan-favorite "Breaking Dawn: Part 2" that went down for the count, despite its status as the top vote getter in the initial play-in round and its performance in the Sweet 16. Rob's fans have made a grand statement by pushing "Cosmopolis" into the Final Four over "Twilight," showing that the majority of them are more invested in the actor's unknown future than his sparkly-skinned past.

"Cosmopolis" beating "Breaking Dawn" is easily the upset of the tournament so far, but is there enough momentum to defeat "The Dark Knight Rises," Christopher Nolan's final dance with the Bat? Batman is a fearsome foe indeed, proving unexpectedly strong against both "The Avengers" and "Dark Shadows." If Gotham City can rally behind their hero one more time, Batman could well beat Rpattz for a trip to the final round.

And just like that, the MTV Movie Brawl 2012 is down to four.

Starting with 32 initial players and a wild card round that introduced another five, the brawl for it all has finally whittled itself down to only four remaining competitors: "Cosmopolis," the Robert Pattinson thriller that beat "Breaking Dawn" for a top spot; "The Dark Knight Rises," Christopher Nolan's third and final Batman movie; "The Hunger Games," the upcoming young adult franchise starring Oscar nominee Jennifer Lawrence; and "The Woman In Black," an unexpected dark horse after tearing through fan favorites "Snow White and the Huntsman" and "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey."

Voting is open on the Final Four until Thursday (January 19) at 11:59 PM EST. Starting Friday (January 20), we'll enter the one-on-one final round, where only one movie will walk away from the brawl with the title of can't-miss movie of 2012. As always, keep voting and make your voice heard!

The MTV Movie Brawl 2012 is officially on! After the initial play-in, wild card and Sweet 16 rounds, only eight movies remain to compete in a series of head-to-head single elimination matches in our March Madness-style bracket. In the end, only one of these flicks can be crowned the can't-miss movie of the year, and the choice is entirely up to YOU. Which movie will win the brawl for it all?

If you aren't afraid of "The Woman in Black," you certainly should be. Ranked at number seven on the east side of the MTV Movie Brawl 2012 bracket, the Daniel Radcliffe starring horror film shocked onlookers by dethroning "Snow White and the Huntsman," considered a favorite in this competition thanks to the Kristen Stewart fan base and the film's crossover appeal with genre and fantasy fans. To call it an upset is a bit of an understatement.

But Radcliffe's latest still has its work cut out for it as "Woman" takes an "Unexpected Journey" towards the first installment of Peter Jackson's two-part "Hobbit," which has seen a tremendous amount of support from fans longing for a return trip to Middle-earth. Considering that Radcliffe was once rumored to take on the lead role of Bilbo Baggins in the "Lord of the Rings" prequels, this could shake out to be quite the grudge match.

After dominating the play-in round, "The Hunger Games" caught fire and left "Prometheus" in its wake. The maybe probably "Alien" prequel couldn't handle the fury of Katniss and Peeta, but who really can? Through the entire tournament so far, "The Hunger Games" has been the movie to beat, but now it faces some stiff competition from the big-budget sci-fi flick, "John Carter."

The power of a shirtless Taylor Kitsch should never be underestimated. It may have been the key factor in the take down of "G.I. Joe: Retaliation" during the Sweet 16. But now comes the real test, as it battles "The Hunger Games" for a spot in the Final 4. Can "John Carter" pull out the upset against the seemingly unstoppable "Hunger Games"? Can anything stop Katniss on her way to the top? It's up to you to decide!

Darkness falls on this second match in the MTV Movie Brawl's Elite Eight. Batman bested Earth's Mightiest Heroes for a continued place in this tournament… but it's also the only remaining comic book in the competition, as "The Amazing Spider-Man's" web was cut short by the ferocious "Dark Shadows," Tim Burton and Johnny Depp's big screen adaptation of the cult classic gothic soap.

While "The Dark Knight Rises" came into the Brawl without the powerful punch we initially expected, Christopher Nolan's final trip to Gotham City has picked up steam in the last few days. But is that new surge of momentum enough to topple "Dark Shadows," which has been a frontrunner since the earliest days of the competition? Only one of these "Dark" films will move on to see the light of the Final Four. The choice, as always, is up to you.

If you thought the choice between "Cosmopolis" and "Bel Ami" was difficult, it gets worse. Robert Pattinson fans were literally divided in half with the seemingly impossible decision, ultimately voting the David Cronenberg thriller into the Elite Eight by only three votes. Not exactly a wide margin!

Still, if it was that hard to choose between two indie Pattinson projects, how can fans possibly pick between "Cosmopolis" and the final round of the "Twilight" films? On the one hand, "Cosmopolis" represents the next stage in Rob's career, a life after "Twilight." On the other hand… it's "Breaking Dawn," guys! The grand finale! It's what we've all been waiting for! Not an easy decision, to say the least, but it's a decision that needs to be made all the same. Good luck, voters — you're going to need it.
