I taped the MTV Movie Awards and I’m glad I did because being able to fast forward through annoying comedy clips and The Pussycat Dolls was wonderful.
I had read on the Johnny Depp Zone that Depp received 2 golden popcorn awards so I was able to search for those moments and replay again.
Winning Best Comedic Performance for Pirates 3, and Best Villain for Sweeney Todd the crowd went wild each time he accepted his popcorn trophy. Jon Voight and Tila Tequila seemed equally excited to see him on stage. This guy causes everyone to swoon regardless of age, gender, or talent.

Tom Cruise introduced Adam Sandler as the man, and the icon, but his self proclaimed arrogant performance including Solid Gold style dancers didn’t do much for me. The dancers were intriguing but Sandler’s singing bores me after about 2 minutes. He’s the kind of comedian that you love or don’t like too much. I guess that’s me, nothing against him, he’s just not that funny when he’s playing guitar. Did I tell you how much I love my Replay TV fast forward button?

Mike Myers promo of “I am Hollywood” was a cool idea and the return of Wayne’s World was accepted with a standing ovation. America really is in need of entertainment. I was a Wayne’s World fan in the 90’s but I’m not convinced I would have jumped up so quickly and with such enthusiasm as the audience did. Maybe you had to be there to feel the energy. Myers and Carvey seemed comfortable with their old characters. The third film idea must be floating out there somewhere. Party on Wayne and party on Garth!

I did like the clip from Jack Black, Robert Downey Jr., and Ben Stiller, their funny, over the top and gory fake blood scene at the end was entertaining. Check out MTV for the clip called Tropic Thunder Viral Video.

Lindsay Lohan, on stage with P. Diddy, and Mini-Me actor Verne Troyer was irritating rather than interesting. I don’t think P. Diddy’s repetitive line “Yes we can!” helped Obama or Oprah very much. Overall, the exciting moments were dulled a bit by the idea of trying hard to be unique and cool at the same time. There were some highlights I found amusing, mostly seeing Johnny Depp’s Public Enemies hair style and finding out he has a new tattoo was enough for this Depp fan. Overall I hit fast forward for the majority of the show. I’m having fun browsing through the extras on MTV.com, blogs, pics, and the schmoozing celebs back stage clips. You can watch the show in it’s entirety on MTV.com if you didn’t get a chance to fast forward via TIVO or other such helpful device. Maybe I’m too old for the MTV Movie Awards. Anyone know when VH1 has theirs?
