Tenacious Scooby!! MTV Movie Awards!!

Published at:  Jun 05, 2002 10:59:11 PM CDT

SPOILER ALERT !!

I am – Hercules!!

The two MTV award shows that bookend summer are unquestionably the finest award shows ever produced. All producers of award shows should remove their bruised and bleeding lips from Bruce Villanch’s hinder long enough to see how a genuinely entertaining trophython is forged.



(Yes, we still recall the horrific fiasco hosted by the lottery-winner-like Brothers Wayans two years ago. It was an exception. It proved the rule. This year your hosts are Sarah Michelle Gellar and Jack Black! These are very cool hosts!)



The MTV Movie Awards is such a good awards show we will watch even though we learned who won way back on Saturday night. That’s right: there’s nothing “live” about it. Will Smith won best male performance. Nicole Kidman won best female performance. “Fellowship of the Rings” won best movie. No one gives a rat’s ass!



This show is all about the journey.



Tune in, if only to see:

* Tobey Maguire in the show-opening “Spider-Man” parody;

* Magenta-tressed Kelly Osbourne performing “Papa Don’t Preach”;

* Jack Black’s fleeting homage to Meat Loaf;

* Will Ferrell’s “Panic Room” parody;

* The tribute to “Memento”-“Insomnia” writer-director Christopher Nolan;

* Performances by the White Stripes and that Slim Shady fellow; and

* Fabulous babes!! Kate Beckinsale, Linda Cardellini, Jennifer Garner, Katie Holmes, Bridget Moynahan, Brittany Murphy, Natalie Portman, Franka Potente, Winona Ryder, Hilary Swank, and Charlize Theron.

Herc predicts: talkbackers will bitch and moan and whine and cry. But they watch, whether they admit to doing so or not. Because you all are MTV’s sad little sex puppets.

Pre-show is 8:30 p.m. The show proper launches at 9 p.m. Thursday. MTV.

I’m here to teach y’all about callin’ collect!!

I am – Hercules!!

    The White Stripes are the only reason to watch

    by jack d. ripper

    MTV is just another member of the horrible corporate circle-jerk that conspires to kill youth culture with their goddamn Freddie Prinze Jr.s and Limp Bizkits. Their awards show's been shit for about 5 years(best awards
    show IMO is AFI's despite being new). However, I'm grateful that the Whites(or should we say the Stripes, might be less offensive)are playing. The awesomeness of their music is enough to ALMOST counterbalance all the horrible crap going on the rest of the time. Also, their presence at this kind of thing will help the New Garage gain momentum and publicity. Hopefully, someday soon kids will throw out their awful Korn/Slipknot/Creed/Staind whinny crybaby music and listen to some music with balls like the aforementioned Stripes/the Strokes/the Hives, Yeah Yeahs Yeahs, Pattern, Vue, Mooney Suzuki, etc. Sorry to ramble. Peace out.

    MTV: the Paradox

    by zsmooth

    Ya' know... MTV is amazing. MTV is actually two networks. One network has incredibly engaging programming and the other network produces shows that dwell in a level of suckness that no other network could possibly bottom out to. I'm not even talking about playing videos anymore, because MTV plays videos now more than ever before in the second half of their existence (besides, MTV2 is here to take care of those pesky "I want nothing but videos" audience.

    The GOOD MTV has this Movie Awards show; they have the VMAs; they have the Andy Dick Show (AD is maybe the funniest white motherfucker in the world); they have Dismissed (finally, a reason to show hotties tongue kissing year round, rather than waiting for those Spring Break specials); they have TRL (a daily countdown, which is what they should have started doing since day 1); risky shows like The Osbournes (they should thank Howard Stern after every showing); and thoughtful, well produced documentaries and specials.
    But then, there is the bad MTV, who wastes our time with utter crap like Road Rules (oh come ON), the Real World (yes, we really, really need to know how 7 idiots in Chicago handled 9-11), the Real World/Road Rules Challenge (A: Everyone's way too old, B: Nobody remembers anyone from the Road Rules crew and only a scant few from the Real World crew, clearly none of these idiots have done anything with their lives and C: the rules are completely inane), and the worst show ever thought of... "Becoming".. where fans re-enact their favorite videos... then we get the pleasure of SEEING these videos. WHO IS THIS FOR? HOW CAN ANYONE BE ENTERTAINED BY THIS? Jesus Christ, someone explain how this is compelling TV?

    And that's my take on MTV... few of you care, I realize. But I just HAD to get my hatred for "Becoming" off my chest. I... I'm sorry, I have to go lie down now.

    something else...

    by zsmooth

    and let me add... Kelly Osbourne is a "normal" (or the closest thing to, considering her parents) 15 year old girl suddenly swamped with instant fame for simply being herself. Leave her bodyweight and looks alone. Okay, she's not a heroin-chic supermodel, thank GOD for that. And MTV will forever be loathed and loved by me for first: making Jenny McCarthy think she was anything more than a model (Christ, it took 4 years for her to realize that she wasn't making anyone laugh intentionally) and second, getting RID of Jenny McCarthy (or, not letting her back in after she left for the greener pastures of NBC and "BASEketball")
    NOW, I'm done

    The Strokes have no balls

    by explody

    Unless you count the ones their daddies bought for them. About as exciting as a velvet painting. A Gorillaz show is more spontaneous and entertaining. They spent more on their vintage clothing than talented bands like Fugazi, Cave In, and the Icarus Line spent on their instruments. I shall now vacate the soapbox.

    White Stripes/Strokes/Jimmy Eat World

    by lowanon

    They are the latest fad: the overexposed, fake-ass indie band. Nothing is quite as funny as seeing/hearing "the unapologetic, lo-fi" sounds of the White Stripes while simultaneously seeing them posteuring next to, say, Linkin Park and Eminem. I suggest listening to bands like Magnetic Fields, Low, Slint, Fugazi, Helium, Rachel's, Godspeed You Black Emporer. At least they're sincere, and they sound pretty fine!

    by pedant

    The MTV Movie Awards has to be
    the least credible, most
    corporatized award show in
    history, yet it is also one of
    the most entertaining. I really
    should hate it, and boycott it,
    but I can't help myself. I HAVE
    to see what Jim Carrey is going
    to do. His appearances at the
    MTV Awards have to be counted
    among his best work, ever. And
    some of the movie spoofs have been
    nothing short of brilliant...
    Ben Stiller as Tom Crooz comes to
    mind. One thing I miss is the
    Lifetime Achievement Award... just
    because Clint Howard is too dumb
    to realize when he's the butt of
    a joke is no reason to retire the
    award.

    White Stripes vs. "Sincere" Indie Bands

    by pelcbarone

    Lowanon - give the White Stripes some credit. "Fake-ass indie band"? Just because they've lucked out doesn't justify that kind of talk. Overexposed? Yes, at this point. But remember, they started small - they were 2 kids who came up with a sound and a look and made music they liked. They had good inflences and used them well (mostly Blind Willie McTell and the Gories - two horribly overlooked geniuses). I think that's pretty sincere. Their 1st record on Sympathy is probably one of the best rock'n'roll albums to come out in the last 5 years, they've opened some doors for more young rock talent, and will continue to do so. (The Strokes, however, I would align with your description. I tried to give em a chance and I just can't figure out the big fucking deal is) (also, Lowanon, I'm a fan of most of your examples - 69 Love Songs was genius, Low is great, Rachel's was great about 5 years ago, but none of them are any fun! It ain't too hard to keep CD shelf space for some simple rock'n'roll, is it?)

    Yet more teenybopper bullshit from MTV

    by magic_ninja

    I swear to God MTV has no fucking clue what goes on with teenagers these days. TRL is for 12 year old fuckwads who don't know what real music is, and who are fooled into believing that online and phone votes have ANYTHING to do with when a video is played. The Osbournes features an aging rock star, his cunt bitch of a wife, and his two ungrateful spoiled children. The Real World hasn't been real since the first season, since now everyone hams it up for the camera. And now we have the fucking MTV movie awards with such "hot" teenybopper acts like Eminem. The only thing good about the movie awards are the funny skits. But hey, if I miss it the first time I know that I'll be able to catch it one of the million times MTV's gonna rerun it this weekend.

    If Kelly Osbourne was really singing that live, she is really, really good. I figured she would be completely underwhelming, but she totally amazed me. Definitely the highlight so far. She always bitched about getting out from under her brother's shadow, and I think she's done it now. Way to go, Kelly.

    JB and SMG totally rock

    by latenighter

    Terrific opening from Spider-man to the JB "Meatloaf" number. Loved it. SMG sounded even better than she did in the Buffy musical. And yeah, she's the first to admit she not a singer. But she proved she's an entertainer. You gotta have fun with it. The plunging neckline on that red dress would not be possible to dance in without some kind of "protection" from indecent exposure.

    Anything MTV is gonna be cheesy. But isn't it the only awards show that really considers the movies we actually go see. Come on, how many of ya actually went out and saw "The Bedroom"?

    I thought Kelly was great. And the industry won't destroy her over her weight. It's people who write in to these boards saying she's fat. One sentence says SMG is too thin, the next sentence says Kelly is too fat. Come on, everyone is different. Step on the scale yourself, and then start casting stones.

    The only thing I don't understand is why ANY of those bands were on a Movie Awards show. Just because it's MTV, I guess. What did they have to do with movies?

Just cause a guy hangs out with Bono all of a sudden, it makes like Mr Knowseverythingaboutpoliticsandshit.

    The LOTR parody was hilarious, so was the Spider-Man bit. And Sarah sang again so that was cool. A good, fluffy time was had by all.
    Jack Black rules! But where was K.G? Why didn't the "D" perform?
    Eminem looked like he wasn't having much fun up on stage. it sounded fine but he didn't seem into it. Comparing to the DVD that came with "The Eminem Show" CD his performance was really low energy.
    I was surprised there was no promo for "8 Mile" either. Is there any word on that movie yet?

    Who enjoyed the MTV Cud-chewers Movie Award Show?

    by diskatopia


    Well, the cud-chewers do... as they chow down on the wretched pustulent puffs of vapid stupefying works one-note celebrity-musicians or musician-celebrities continue to churn out in their own doomed fame rat-race, in a world that continues to sink to the lowest common denominator artistically, politically, and mentally . MTV Movie Aawrds: 'Tis the dumb preaching the Dumb gospel to the dumb.
    .
    .
    .
    I pray that there is a lowest common denominator, because it can't get much worse than this... can it? Just how dumbed-down can it all get?
    .
    .
    .


    Low notes: Pretty much every presenter's "comic" spiel... White Stripes (Brown would be more accurate) and Eminem instead of, say, Radiohead and Tenacious D ... all nominees probably selected by how much money their company spent on ads on MTV and VH1 in past twelve months, "winners" probably picked by under-educated 20- and 30-something "MTV execs" who pick what they think is "hip and edgy" for their audience of 14-year-olds who, Bodine-like, read at a 3rd Grade level... blasting drivelous "rock" music during the bits of each film shown instead of the film's own score... no humor present except in movie parodies... Jack Black not on his "game", SM Gellar anorexic-like, looking like an 11-year-old boy
    .
    .
    .


    High Notes: Movie Parodies
    .
    .
    .


    Screw the MTV Movie Awards, trying to sell their 2 hour commercial suck-up to their Hollywood advertisers and incorporated masters as an "awards" show (awarded by whom?).
    .
    .
    .

    For film, watch "Amelie" instead, and elevate your soul.
    Or listen to the "Tenacious D" CD, because at least Ritalin posterchild Black has a some good ideas in his noggin.

    The LotR parody was funny as Hell. Jack Black is a funny guy. Where are all those LotR talk back people when something interesting happens? There was quite a bit of cheering whenever something LotR related came up, so I don't think it was just the geeks' online voting that counted. Kelly Osbourne sounded ok- Pretty much like what you get during any given night at a Karaoke bar. Is it me, or is it now officially cool to look ugly? Winona Ryder is a beautiful woman, but you couldn't tell from that show. Almost everyone looked bad.

Jack Black is a comic mastermind, an insane prodigy that needs to be given the directors chair, and i've only just noticed the fellow.

    decent overall

    by sykkboy

    I avoided the internet spolers before watching the show...tough to do these days, but adds a little surprise to it at least...I look at the MTV awards as a show where popcron movies can win...none of these long artsy fartsy stick up the ass movies (I adore those too, but really enjoy a good mindless popcorn flick). Their fucking staute is a popcorn bucket for god's sake, not some phallic looking anorexic Mr. Clean statue...THE GOOD: Kelly Osborne, I was just really impressed...she was a bit uneven, but it was her first time performing live so I'm sure the nerves were there, but much better than this pre-recorded lip synching crap from Britney Spears...as for the overweight comment, go fuck yourselves, I'm sick and tired of these bony ass cunts who starve themselves into comas...my god, SMG looked like a slight breeze could knock her over...I had heard of the White Stripes but hadn't heard any of their music before, but was impressed with the older punk sounds and well, I hate Eminem, so am biased there, so won't comment ;) I also loved the parodies and Jack Black was on but sorely underused...and what about the costume change for the dancers with the S&M and blindfold motif? fucking hot. The winners were pretty predictable except Reese Witherspoon as best comedic performance...THE BAD: Seann William Scott and his pitstains of doom..what the fuck was that about? maybe next year he'll bring a spare shirt? I missed the pre-show but caught part of the aftershow...did Andrew WK perform then? he should have performed on the show instead of that boring Slim Shady fuck. Martin Lawrence, wow nothing like a very blatant promo...I guess since his shitcrumb jokes on SNL a few years ago, no one really trusts him "live". but overall a goodd show with some funny bits, and much better than the Wayans Brothers fiasco of a few years ago...they need to bring back either Jack Black or Chris Rock for next years show....I also had to chuckle at all the people that talk about MTV sucking yet they still know all the shws and seem to watch them too.....

    Could this post have been any more of a blatant plug? All hype, no body... who cares about Slow Shady performing yet another rap-pop clone tune (all his singles, save The Way I Am, pretty much sound the same) at yet another awards show. And Will Ferrel is NOT the comic genious everyone seems to think he is. Annoying != funny. Only thing this show has going for it is SMG & JB, more the former than the latter (but Jack Black is pretty decent at times). The real question here is, why does a music video station even NEED a movie awards show? Screw all this crap about it being young and hip, blah blah I have a five-second attention span blah blah - awards shows are pointless, period. Watch the movies you like, and care not whether they win awards at shows just trying to pull ratings.

Personally, I love the damn MTV Movie Awards. If you weren't at least a little charmed by Kelly Osbourne's sincere and energetic first try at a live performance, you are just a bitter person. Jack Black and SMG were extremably likable, Fat Spidey made me laugh my ass off and you know what? I like the White Stripes. And the Strokes. Not because of indie cred but because they are fun and stand out in a world of post-grunge bitches whining about how daddy didn't love them. Guess I'm a dork.

  • Do you think it was a coincidence that when Michael Bay won the 2 people presenting were in his films? This show is what the "Golden Globes" were until NBC and Dick Clark got their hands on it: one big excuse to have a party. The funniest (and saddest) part was Mandy Moore. She acted like she won an Oscar. Thank God her career is over. Now as for music cred., the White Stipes have more cred. than Linkin Park. Guys, L.P. are managed by the people in Orlando, Fl.-----later-----m

    LEAVE KELLY ALONE

    by mssaffy

    I find it utterly hysterical that a bunch of people who masturbate to any mention of LOTR find it their divine right to make fun of Kelly Osbournes weight.
    She is a cute, funny, opinionated, and intelligent regular girl and you know what? we need MORE girls like that on TV!
    So all of you with your delusions of grandeur GET OVER YOURSELF. You are not important, it's not like you look like Brad Pitt or George Clooney yourself and your jealousy of Ewan McGregor is stinking up the place. You would all be LUCKY to be with a girl who is HALF as cool as Ms. Osbourne.

    I can't wait until She hooks up with Orlando Bloom.

    I agree with Saffy

    by miyazakieboshi

    I kinda find her attractive too. I'm not into the buxom blonde that EVERY girl I see today looks like.

    Yes, we need more spoiled brats like Kelly Osbourne on tv

    by magic_ninja

    Spoiled, ungrateful children like Kelly Osbourne are who watch MTV anyway.
    And why the fuck was Eminem dressed up like Robin, flying through the city, and then changing his costume in a phone booth? Fuck Eminem and his fake ass fans.

    Yeah, but my point was Superman does that, not Robin

    by magic_ninja

    But I do find it amusing that Eminem would want to dress up as Robin to be the bitch to Dr Dre's Batman.

    It was funny but it sucks...

    by dmanjdb

    The MTV Movie Awards were funny and entertaining but the biggest problems is awards themselves. Maybe is because of TRL friendly internet crowd...

    Resse Whiterspoon best comidic performence??????

    (Against Murphy, Myers, Tucker and even William Scott??? COME ON!!!! but on fairness I really REALLY HATE Whitespoon)

    Mandy Moore breakthought female????

    (HUH??? At least is better than Brittney Spears)

    This is not the people's award let me tell you...
    better call them the TRL award.

    In other things The show was ALOT better that the recent VMAs (BTW is it me or did people find it shocking that "Lady Mermalade" won the Best Video??? they did even applaud!!!!!)
    JAck Black and SMG were good and funny the skits were also good.

    The music was a mix bag. The White Stripes Rocked. Enminen was all right. Kelly Osbourne was interesting but I still don't know if she lipsnyc on the song, but she was nervous so it cool.

    I give it: B-

    this talkback

    by rawheadrex lives

    is retarded. Hate what you see on MTV! Like these bands with obscure names that you've never heard of. Look how hip and indy I am, I listen to music that's on the edge because you've never heard of them. Gimme a fucking break, you jackasses. I had the same mentality when I was in friggin jr. high school. And now? Just because it gets radio play doesn't mean it's bad. Just because it's not popular doesn't make it good. All you readers, wanna hear my musical advice? Listen to what you like and fuck everyone who says otherwise. Peace out.
