The 2005 MTV Movie Award Nominees

[Mole 0]

Actually, the story borrows heavily from Lady Snowblood.

From IMDB

 

Yuki's family is nearly wiped out before she is born due to the machinations of a band of criminals. These criminals kidnap and brutalize her mother but leave her alive. Later her mother ends up in prison with only revenge to keep her alive. She creates an instrument for this revenge by purposefully getting pregnant. Though she dies in childbirth, she makes sure that the child will be raised as an assassin to kill the criminals who destroyed her family. Young Yuki never knows the love of a family but only killing and revenge.

Sounds more like Cottonmouth's storyline not the main storyline.

And, yeah, Ringwald did NOT age well ... Sheedy did, though.  Hmm, she looked fine.  And was the "they're in Africa with Dave Chappelle" meant to be a diss on them for no-showing?  Is there a legit issue going on?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Nelson was actually at the show, but left early for unknown reasons.

 

And yes, Sheedy looks like she's still in her 20s. Damn.

Mole, seriously, Kill Bill is 10,000 movies put together. Which is cool. And if you had the time, you should watch them all.

Do people even really care if they win an MTV movie award? Is it considered a great accomplishment?

I have tomorrow off, so I'll give it a try.

Why so surprised? The MTV age group is the group with the most disposable income. They also are mindless idiots who swallow anything MTV tells them is hip and cool. A-list stars know who butters their bread and show up for these things MTV does to show that they too, are hip and cool.

 

Let me preffice what I'm about to say by mentioning that I am NOT an MTV fan and I really havent watched the network regularly since 2001. Your arguement sucks. MTV in one way or another responds to the trends of the current teen/ early college student demographic. Thats what always have done and what they'll continue to do. They like every other network put together shows that they think that demo will eat up. Some shows work others dont. The ones that dont work are for all intents and purposes spit back in their faces. This notion that MTV has this mind-controlling power over teenagers has always gotten up my ass..

If anyone gives a shit.

 

Nope.

I actually thought Molly Ringwold still looked pretty hot.

I'll play devil's advocate and say that after the SAG, Golden Globes and Academy Awards and so many other shows does anybody really want to see another Jamie Fox "mmmmm mmm mmm I'm Ray Charles reborn" speech. Fox, Swank and others of their like have all recieved the "real" awards. Think of this as MTV giving some new people the rub...and for every SmartMark who thinks ND and Lindsey Lohan should die horrible deaths there are 50 diehard MTV viewers who really like this crap and want to watch an award show that they feel is fun and not so adult-like and serious. I doubt very seriously that some of these A-list actors are pissed that they didn't win an MTV award...but young Hollywod won big and there isn't anything wrong with that..and MTV does know how to cater to their audience...this show is meant to almost spoof the other shows...some of you guys just hate everything I think.

BTW I haven't met ANYBODY(and I know a lot of people) with the exception of my dim-witted boss who didn't think Napolean Dynamite wsa hysterical including myself..in fact I saw somebody come into my store today wearing a "Vote for Pedro" t-shirt...just goes to show that we are still the minority in our overall opinions of this world...

MTV Movie Awards actually have some decent results. This year is not one of those examples.

[razazteca 0]

MTV movie awards used to be the entertaining with its parodies of popular movies. The best year was probably the one with the Brady Bunch cast re-enacting the movies of the year nominies. This year with Jimmy Fallan was average at best....the opening was ok with the Batman parody but not as good as Jack Black as Spiderman.

[Beast 0]

My friends and I watched the beginning just to see the opening movie. Wasn't funny, and man do I wish they had not shown any of the Batman movie before it was released. That kind of pissed us all off. Then while flipping back and forth between shows, Jimmy's monologue sounded horrible and the Eminem Triumph impersonation was just sad. Didnt Triumph piss Eminem like 2-3 years ago, and wasnt that just because Eminem didnt want to be made fun of at all, since he can't take a joke? Just horrible stuff.

Jimmy Fallon is 85% of the time never funny.

[Guest Vitamin X]

Best Female Performance

Uma Thurman -- Kill Bill Vol. 2 (Miramax Films)

Lindsay Lohan -- Mean Girls (Paramount Pictures)

Hilary Swank -- Million Dollar Baby (Warner Bros. Pictures)

Rachel McAdams -- The Notebook (New Line Cinema)

Natalie Portman -- Garden State (Fox Searchlight)

I was flipping through channels earlier while on commercials during the NBA Finals, and I tuned it to see this, and I could not stop laughing when I saw this. I turned after watching Lindsay's acceptance speech (isn't she supposed to look like an awful crackwhore now? She looked fine during the awards... hmm, maybe she made a good point about the paparazzi in her speech..), and honestly it amused me to no end to see the absolute worst of the 5 performers win, although I don't really care since these awards don't really have any "prestige" behind them.

 

Best Male Performance

Jamie Foxx -- Ray (Universal Pictures)

Will Smith -- Hitch (Sony Pictures)

Brad Pitt -- Troy (Warner Bros. Pictures)

Matt Damon -- The Bourne Supremacy (Universal Pictures)

Leonardo DiCaprio -- The Aviator (Miramax Films)

 

At least there was some comeuppance there for DiCaprio, who I felt actually did do a much better job with his role than Foxx did, as much as Foxx completely nailed Ray Charles down to a tee.

(isn't she supposed to look like an awful crackwhore now? She looked fine during the awards... hmm, maybe she made a good point about the paparazzi in her speech..)

The paparazzi reference had nothing to do with that (in fact, on the preshow Nicole and Lindsay joked on each other about how skinny they were...weird), but it had to do with some paparazzi guy purposely getting into a wreck with her, and messing up her car pretty bad.

The g/f actually brought this award show up in conversation the other day, so I thought I'd check the thread out of curiousity.

 

First, Napoleon Dynamite winning seems hardly a surprise if you play the "OMG Conspiracy" card, but I (and my g/f) loved the movie so I'm not really going to complain, although the divisive nature of the film is itself interesting, looking at the comments of this thread.

 

Re: Lohan. Not really a surprise here, as she's an MTV-audience girl

 

Re: Leo. This was a surprise to me, given that the wheels on the Leo bandwagon among MTV kids fell off not long after Titanic. Plus The Aviator (which I liked) is very much not an MTV-audience film.

 

Most of the other awards I could care less about, although some comment earlier (that I'm not going back to find) about Stiller winning the best villain award was pretty good. I would have gone with Cruise as Vince in Collateral, but he was far too layered a villain to be appreciated by the MTV core audience.

 

Plus, forget "Best Kiss" award, how long until we see "Best Fuck Scene" award?

I dont what show you were you watching but Jimmy's monologue was one of the highlights, and the Hilary Swank joke was GOLD.

Jimmy Fallon trying to be Chris Rock was not that funny.

[smh810 0]

The Chris Rock impression was okay but why focus on that when he told what has fast become one of my favorite jokes ever.
