'Transformers' Named Best Movie at MTV Movie Awards
Sunday, June 1, 2008 at 8:55PM
The MTV Movie Awards saw a little bit of everything:
Johnny Depp remarking that he's not funny in spite of winning best comedic
performance,
Seth Rogen and
James Franco pretending to smoke weed before
announcing an award for
Iron Man...which was accepted by
Robert Downey Jr.,
who battled drugs for more than a decade.
It saw
Tom Cruise present
Adam Sandler the Generation
Award (the highest honor you can get attending these ceremonies), and it was
witness to
Mike
Myers and
Dana Carvey getting the band back together, reuniting as Wayne and Garth
from Wayne's World.
Among the winners:
Best Actress -
Ellen Page (Juno)
Best Villian - Johnny Depp (Sweeney
Todd)
Best Movie -
Transformers
Granted, this is an awards show geared for the younger
folks. I get that. But explain to me how the hell National Treasure: Book of
Secrets was a nominee for Best Movie? You've got I Am Legend, Juno,
Transformers, Pirates, and Superbad.
Anyone for No Country? There Will Be Blood?
Bourne?
What the hell is that nomination about.
A better question might be why am I questioning the
logic of the MTV Movie Awards. I guess I'm just upset that Kid Rock and Tommy
Lee didn't get into another sissy boy awards show slap party.
