Rogen!! Heigl!! Willis!! Jackson!! Alba!! Biel!! Samberg!! Krasinski!! Fabulous Sarah Silverman Hosts THE MTV MOVIE AWARDS!!

Published at:  Jun 04, 2007 1:01:47 AM CDT

I am – Hercules!!


The MTV Movie Awards haven’t been live as long as I can remember; perhaps they’ve never been. The sister show, the MTV Video Music Awards, has been live a lot. Maybe always.

But this year “Survivor” mastermind Mark Burnett has been given the movie show’s reins, and he’s sticking it on live. No one can be certain how much the liveness will add; it’s not like a lot of viewers have organized betting pools on who wins “best villain” or “best kiss,” right? I suspect most of us watch for the movie parodies, which will probably not be live.

Also not live are the parodies viewers were encouraged to create for the show this year. I kinda like “Little Miss Squirtgun,” which I think stars Alanna Ubach in all of the many female roles. The guy who plays Vince Vaughn amuses me also. Though I would not describe all of the parody finalists as watchable, precisely, you can try to watch them here. (I believe some of them could give viewers a new appreciation for the “On The Lot” finalists.)

Girl presenters this year include the Jessici, Alba and Biel, Amanda Bynes, Cameron Diaz, Katherine Heigl, Mandy Moore and one of the ladies in that popular Spice Girl group (might or might not be the scary one; I’m not really up on what’s hot in British pop these days).

Boy presenters include Seth Rogen, Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, John Krasinski, Andy Samberg, Justin “I’m A Mac” Long, Chris Evans, Josh Duhamel, John Travolta, Chris Tucker, Ioan Grufudd, Michael Chiklis, Tyrese Gibson, Robin Williams, and somebody named Zac Efron, who I think was in a popular Disney Channel TV-movie.

Mike Myers is honored with something called a “generation award.”

Musical performers include Amy Winehouse and Rihanna.

Hot, funny Sarah Silverman hosts.

8 p.m. Sunday. MTV.










Before "Knocked Up"!!

Before “Knocked Up,” Judd Apatow, Seth Rogan, Jay Baruchel, Loudon Wainwright and Jason Segal collaborated on an entire season of the hilarious “Undeclared’!!




LOST:

THE COMPLETE THIRD SEASON!!


Bonus Features Include: Deleted Scenes, Commentaries, Bloopers and Mini-Docs: “The World of the Others," “Lost Flashbacks,” “Lost in One Day,” “Lost on Location,” and “The Lost Book Club”!!

    that she would host the Independent Spirit Awards and the MTV Movie Awards right after. Doesn't that seem unethical in some way?

    That said, as much as I hate all of the categories of this show, especially the new "movie you haven't seen yet" award, the MTV movie awards are the single best produced awards show today. End of story.

    The only thing on the network even marginally watchable

    by seanny_d

    I despise everything MTV is and stands for now. Watching their network for more then 5 minutes makes me want to lobotomize myself, yet somehow its become the default channel for teenagers and college kids all across the nation. If nothing else is on, turn on MTV! Watch as your best friend is apparently able to detect lies via remote! Check out the "Real World" where specifically hand-picked people who are ironically not representative of the real world and put them together in a group and watch the SPARKS FLY!That being said, I'll probably watch the movie awards eventually because they play them 50 times a week after they air. I'm sure some of it will be entertaining.

    by tallboy66

    Anybody else agree with me? Generally, the guests look hotter and the musical acts are better. Not this year, though, in the latter category. C'mon, there's gotta me more than 2. The year Gnarls Barkley did "Crazy" dressed as Star Wars characters ruled.

    what happens is

    by emeraldboy

    these shows are pre-recorded, 2hrs before hand or 24hrs. then edited down. The brit awards were live for the first time in 18 yesrs this year. but due to worthiness of the acts and the fact that they no longer have a wet bar, its a very dull show. The only show its seems, that is any fun is nickelodeon kids choice awards.

    MTV is officially completely irrelevant

    by industrykiller!

    It's astonishing how awful that station is. And it's not just the fact that the station itself is bad, it single handedly influences pop culture in a negative fashion. It used to be the station that gave us videos from David Bowie, Madonna (not new Madonna), Guns N' Roses, and Nirvana. Now it's the station that seems to exist solely to feed the ego of spoiled tasteless losers the world over. And even worse than that it's become completely and utterly irrelevant and expendable. It hasnt given us anything worthwhile in the musical landscape in a good solid decade. And that should be enough to make it go the way of the dodo. Moreover it's gotten incredibly conservative, not just unwilling but completely unable to push boundaries. Like and aging 80's rock star playing bar mitzvahs it stumbles onto the stage every now and again inciting some pathetic news story only to crawl back into its self imposed hole until the next season of laguna beach. Take it off the air. Now.

    Totally indistinguishable from any random Playboy model of the week, and don't forget talentless. Alba even sucked in Sin City. Yeah I said it. She was the weak link in a fantastic cast. Truth. But then again I guess even some people find beauty in Lindsey Lohan.

    lady. She is no lady and doesnt deserve the title. She never even contributed anything to the spice girls and hasnt done so after there demise. She has no talent to speak of. I think the trip to the states will backfire on her. just like what to lady Mucca. Heather Mucca went on dancing on ice and didnt endear herself to the american public. They same thing will to victoria. Victoria beckham is an icy bitch. I for one like many others will stay away from the Victoria beckham movie which lil tommy cruise is producing.

    Jessica Alba has a small cooch.

    by lordenigma

    Seriously, someone had to point this out. Unlike Jessica Biel who has a quality and proper sized cooch. Nevertheless, MTV is coming up to a point. Where it may need to re-evaluate it's position in the overall ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY. The old folks running this network will have to let it go at some point. So, maybe, some younger and more forward thinking person will re-evaluate the shitty state they are in right now.

    The reason Silverman can host things that should be exclusive is because she is a whore. She has made a career out of shacking up with talented men who land her jobs and influence her material. Oh right, she finds Jimmy Kimmel to be hot though, thats true love right there. Here is hoping the Bruce Willis that is advertised turns out to be Jon Benjamin.

    MTV is the channel for them or they watch it. MTV has been losing ratings at an alarming rate. It's just not interesting anymore. Even the young people don't tune in that much. VH1 gets more ratings, but that's not going to last when Viacom starts micromanaging it more to increase ratings even higher.

    by cyberbeavis1326

    Congrats to all you. I can't add much to what you all said. Except Yes, Sarah Silverman is an unfunny, untalented, whore and cunt. Damn Comedy Central for giving her a second season. Damn MTV for letting her host. Well on second thought, she deserves to host a shit fest like the MTV movie awards. Mark Burnett has proven himself an idiot. "On the Lot" is a fraud of a show, this is pretty low for him to pruduce this show. "Pirate Master" he gets kudos for though. I too hate the new "best summer movie you haven't seen" award. What retarded ADD brain damaged pinhead thought that one up? Let's give an award to a movie just out or coming soon. Why, what if the movie gets the award and is total shit. You can't claim something award worthy before it can be seen. I swear to God's unholy taint MTV better not add a catagory to their music awards "best album you've not yet heard" award. That should be enough to make real music fans go blow up that fucking MTV building McVeigh and 9-11 style, and all casualties of MTV employees would be deserved and collateral for that brainfart.

    by immortal_fish

    Do you like anything? I mean, ANYthing?Okay, so you liked the cast of Sin City, sans Alba. And even here you're partially rawng. Well cast or otherwise, Michael Madsen totally phoned it in. Nick Stahl's part could have been adequately played (as he did) by at least a dozen others. The usually sucky Josh Hartnett actually did okay -- FOR A CHANGE. And casting (the admittedly capable) Bruce Willis instead of Lance Henriksen was a phenomenally missed opportunity, as was putting Alba in when her part screamed for a woman to at least partially disrobe.But the thing I picked up from your posts that has me roaring is how "MTV is becoming more conservative." LOL! Okay, by a major stretch of the imagination, you could claim that they are conditioning the next consumer generation. But to do that, you'd have to take into consideration what it is that they are marketing, yes? Not only in their commercials, but also what they report for news, the mindset of the regulars and guests on their shows, etc.

    MTV is making people dumber, but so is TB

    by freemind

    First, I like the idea of silverman hosting, she's funny, but i'm sure her shit will be more watered down than vodka at a bar, besides, the best host of all time is chris rock and we will never see anyone that good again. I personaly hate MTV, it's shows are fucking retarded, I watch "sweet 16" only to later fantasize about beating those rich spoiled brats with a baseball bat, people tell me "rob and Big" is funny but i refuse to give it a chance. The only good show MTV has on right now is "human giant" but even that is a hit and miss and i only watch it online. You all say you hate MTV and don't watch it, but from some of the posts, you all behave like your common 14 year old MTV viewer, posting only insults and refusing to engage in an inteligent conversation about movies, TV shows, etc. so you all should look at yourselves before you attack MTV for being imature....but then again, i'll probly get flamed on for calling 80% of the TB crowd a bunch of 14 year old kids who can't post anything other than "ELI ROTH is a huge, untalented faggot with herpes and i hope he and his whole family get raped by bears and get cancer" cuz that's what most of these TB consist of.

    MTV

    by the real mirajeff

    I gotta agree with Industry Killer on this one. MTV has become completely irrelevant. They used to be on the cutting edge. They used to matter to teenagers, and sometimes, they even made a difference. Now it's all watered-down generic bullshit, and the worst part of it is that music videos have become an afterthought. I don't think I've seen a music video on that station in years. It's just awful Hills and Laguna Beach re-runs. Just because MTV ushered in the reality TV era with Real World, they feel they can exploit the format with partially scripted series about completely vapid people. Take, for instance, its Rolling Stone reality show. It was a great idea that could've been really cool. I actually filled out the 15 page application and sent in a video. Am I a little bitter about not getting on the show? Sure. But that's no excuse for the piss-poor casting job that was eventually done. After watching the pilot it was easy to tell, in my infinite wisdom, that not one of those people deserved to ever have a job at Rolling Stone, let alone an unapid janitorial internship. It's all about picking a bunch of weirdos to fill demographics, the same mega-issue currently plaguing On the Lot, which lost all credibility in its first episode when complete hacks made "The Top 50." Out of 12,000 submissions, I am virtually positive that the show's producers received better short films from better directors than the ones they chose, but the talented ones were either too polished for the amateur-filled show or they simply didn't fit the casting demands - like the kid who didn't go to film school, the guy with a family who has one last chance to make it, the mom who's a wanna-be filmmaker, etc. But that's Fox's problem. As for MTV it's like a plague on society. There's not an iota of creativity within that whole network. It's just safe, poppy crap, from Room Raiders to Pimp My Ride to Punk'd to whatever new awful show they're trying to trick teenagers and twentysomethings into watching. It's sad, because it's a channel that caters exclusively to that holy demographic of 18-24 year olds, but there's nothing remotely engaging about its programming. Why make repeated half-hearted attempts at drama when MTV should be sinking its money into original comedic programming given the dire state of the network sitcom. Believe me, there are plenty of people at MTV being paid ridiculous amounts of money to package and produce pure shit like The Hills, Newlyweds, Road Rules, etc. It's gotten to the point where I'm not sure that channel can even be saved. And what's worse is how easily people are buying into that trash. It reached a boiling point for me when I listened to last week's Sports Guy podcast on ESPN, only to find a 20 minute "interview" with some dude from Inferno. Talk about a Z-grade celebrity. Here's a guy, Bill Simmons, who I love and cherish as a fellow Boston sports fan, a guy who's columns/podcast are one of the highlights of my week, getting sucked into this pointless whirlwind of hype generated by the geniuses at MTV, and devoting an entire podcast to asking him softball questions about a reality show that pits former reality show contestants against each other... or something. Sports Guy should be embarrassed, but MTV might deserve a medal for brainwashing a credible media personality into thinking that Inferno and its pea-brained audience matter whatsoever. It's frustrating, knowing there's a channel out there that's supposed to be "for me," and not being able to find a single watchable show on it. I don't know what can be done to change it. All I have is my little pulpit here and hope that Sumner Redstone spends his evenings reading AICN talkbacks. MTV is completely unredeemable and if anyone of you watch it I urge you to reconsider your television viewing habits. Granted, the MTV Movie Awards are literally the annual apex of its programming, and Sarah Silverman is the bomb-diggity, but even that awards show has been suffering for years, recycling the same ideas and breaking no new ground in the format, when it's the supposed to be the only "fun" awards show whose structure and awards can be played with. There are so many things that could be done to make that show cooler, but judging by those user-made entries, letting fans make their own mash-up trailers is not one of them. Just more fuel to the fire that's burning the network to the ground. MTV2 is still cool, but it's only available in a handful of households, and is best enjoyed under the influence of some sort of drug. I long for the days when John Norris, Kurt Loder, Matt Pinfield were front and center. Hell, even The Devil himself, Carson Daly, would be an improvement over some of the "talent" that's currently on the air. It really is a shame. And for the love of God, bring back Rock and Jock. I would tune in just to watch Michael Rapaport post-up Frankie Muniz one more time.

    This is a common misunderstanding that I get when I say someone isn't "hot" or "overrated". Many times I've had to tell friends that I'd screw Tina Fey two ways to Sunday before you could say "Weekend Update", but that doesn't mean I think she deserves a "hot" rating.

A great thinly veiled fuck you to the guys who almost turned a billion plus dollar franchise into a huge summer flop the size of a Michael Bay movie not starring Will Smith, Bruce Willis or Nicholas Cage.

    by vern

    Holy shit man, do I even NEED to say anything? When I said that Billy Crystal would do a hilarious spoof of UNITED 93 on the Oscars I was FUCKING JOKING. I didn't think things had gotten that fuckin low. They do a wacky Weird Al/Leslie Nielsen spoof of REAL PEOPLE WHO DIED ONLY A FEW YEARS AGO and everybody claps and votes for it as their favorite "spoof." And you can't even tell, are these people so god damn stupid they don't even know that really happened? I'm almost starting to agree with that country singer asshole with the "Have You Forgotten" song.
    Well, at least it was in a dignified context. I'm sure if those people had known that their deaths would provide laughs during a 2 hour infomercial for a Transformers movie they would've been very proud. And of course their families now can take pride in what they've been able to accomplish even in death.

    Overall

    by tvguy4566

    Better than most of the MTV Movie Awards of recent past, but in general MTV Awards are no longer cutting edge or very entertaining. There were some good moments during the show like Sarah Silverman's monologue, but for the most part it is no more cutting edge anymore than the Oscars. Most of the A Listers don't even show up anymore. Will Ferrell, Johnny Depp, Bruce Willis, Jack, Samule L Jackson, Adam Sandler and a bunch of has beens (at this point Robin Williams is totally irrelevant and I doubt he can even open a door anymore much less a movie) and B Listers. Where were the Ocean 13 guys (Pitt, Damon, Clooney, etc)? They have a movie coming out this week. Same with Steve Carrell. Zack Braff has a movie coming out. Nichole Kidman too. Angelina Jolie (granted her movie won't appeal to the MTV crowd). It really seemed like they only had about a dozen or so presenters and next to no one in the audience. The MTV Movie Awards used to be a hot spot for Hollywood especially the under 40 set. Now some of the big names were Paris Hilton, Justin Long, Amanda Byrnes, and Shia LeBeuouf.

    Do I like anything? It's a reasonable question given then when I enter talkbacks it's usually to slag something and I typically only "fanboy" out on talkbacks for indie films no one reads. To answer your question yes there are plenty of things I like. Ask yourself what I'm usually griping about: Genre Films. Things like 80's properties and comic book films. Genre films are in a very sad state of affairs. Whereas in the 80's we had guys like SPielberg and Zemeckis and Cameron at the helm, now we have hacks like Michael Bay and Len Wiseman. Now even if you like either of those filmmakers movies, they are unarguably inferior to what we used to get. And sorry if I'm being a hard ass, but that dog just will not hunt with me. We seem to have forgetten that imaginative films don't have to be derivative, condescending, or low rent, and it just bothers the shit out of me that no one seems to care. So yeah I like stuff, but it's more important right now to focus on gaping short commings of the film industry in hopes that maybe someone will hear and things will get better. And as for MTV being more conservative, you're god damn right it has. I don't think rich kids acting like complete and utter burnout losers is all that edgy or boundary pushing. And considering thats what makes up about 90% of the programming on MUSIC television I think conservative is the perfect way to put it. When they do choose to play videos it's usually boring play-it-safe tripe like Fall Out Boy, Panic At the Disco, or Jessica Simpson type teen star X. MTV used to make headlines and discover defining acts left and right, in fact they were about the only thing that made the 80's bearable (at least thats how I look back on it in my then very childish mind). If you are trying to say MTV still has that kind of impact you are probably a 15 year old kid. In which case I would like to personally tell you that your generation is the biggest bunch of tasteless pussies since teens in the early fifties watched Annette Funicello ride a surfboard in a candy stripe one piece.

    their taste is dictated to them. "But Shia says I should see the movie and he's cute so I'll go see it." "Paris hilton likes small dogs so I like them too" so on and so forth. It goes from movies & music to what kind of underwear they wear, it's sickining how programmed they've become.

    actually. The whole Annette Funicello thing. But at those teenagers redeemed themselves when the Beatles got cool with Revolver, Jimi Hendrix, and Vietnam Protests. They subsequently lost that cool when they sold out the country every which way but loose to George Bush.....who is probably a big fan of the nice programming on MTV.

    Industry Killer don't fool yourself...

    by revsick

    ...Big Brother is both sides equally working to control the masses. The left constantly will tell you not to say something based on whether it will hurt someone's feelings or might offend someone, the right will tell you not to say something cause it's not patriotic, both sides disagree with each other point by point in almost exactly opposite stand points. It's used to confuse the masses and make sure that all can't unite for a greater common good, the issues they make big aren't big issues of the day, securing our borders, discovering the cure for AIDS and Cancer, it's Gay Marriage and Abortion. The biggest problem is that the pop culture now is taking part in it whole handedly, and people just eat it up. Unfortunatly, because of things like MTV, people don't vote their hearts and minds, they vote based on what P.Diddy tells em.

    by industrykiller!

    to make a political statement when I said MTV was conservative. I meant more that it is just absolutely toothless as a force in the pop culture landscape. Instead of innovating like they used to, they follow trends often long after they have been established. They are the image purveyors rather than the image makers. And my association to GWB wasn't really because of any sort of political reality so much as I just assume a man of his mentality likes crappy toothless programming, which MTV is more than happy to provide.

    All I'm saying is

    by vern

    it was a "parody" of real, specific people, and the specific circumstances of their real deaths, which happened less than six years ago. When UNITED 93 came out I thought it was crass to turn it into a movie, and advertise it just like any other movie. I don't want to watch it, but by all accounts it's great, respectful, classy, etc. I don't doubt it. But we were all okay with turning it into a popular entertainment product and now we take it to the next step, which is of course to turn these real deaths into not just humor, but the absolute lowest form of humor, just below the fart joke, the guy dressed up as character from recent hit movie which counts as a joke joke.
    And if anyone really believes the guy was trying to make a tribute to people who stand up to tyranny (a word he didn't even know how to pronounce) then I'm gonna go fuckin blow my head off right now because it's not even worth trying to redeem this culture at that point. That speech was a thrilling sequel to the previous greatest "nothing is sacred, and if you see anything that seems sacred at all let me know so I can pee on it" moment in MTV Movie Awards History, when Michael Bay dedicated his MTV Best Action Scene popcorn award to the people who died at Pearl Harbor, for making it possible.
    I mean, am I fuckin dreaming this? I'm pretty sure I really saw that on TV. And then I'm an asshole who should fuck off for pointing it out. Am I really the only guy who had a problem with it?

    by revsick

    ...I took broadcasting in college, ratings in cable tv mean as much as having a who's got the bigger wiener contest. Cable channels make their money off how many markets they are in not what their ratings are. Shows that have less then 2 shares have the same ads most of the time as any other show. Look at G4, distinguished as being the lowest watched channel on the cable dial by neilsons, you still see ads for major movies, soda, video games, other tv shows, and every other product under the sun. They make their money reguardless of ratings, that is why you see channels on cable take these dramatic format changes. A station will completely change format, loose all it's audience and still have as much ad revenue as ever before.

No seriously. it's one of the worst movies of all time. Ever. Without question worse than Ishtar. Or Waterworld. And Gigli isn't the worst movie Ben Affleck ever made, guess what is, Pearl fucking Harbor. For all the shit that film gets, it still doesn't take enough flak for absolutely pissing on the memries of the people who were there. The only reason I may disagree with Vern, and I havent given it enough thought to make that call. Is that it was very obviously a parody of a movie, a movie that was about a tragic event yes, but a movie nontheless. Also it's Russian terrorists and quite frankly fuck those guys.

You've got to wonder how much WD-40 the MTV execs ended up swallowing after fellating Transformers for two hours."). That's hot. And while I'm on the subject, I missed Silverman's Paris Hilton insults, I guess I'll have to dig up a torrent of the show or find on youtube (or one of the countless re-airings of this show that will be done).
    I did manage to catch the awful United 93 parody (hire whoever made it for the next Epic/Date Movie), Transformers winning an award before it comes out, and POTC2 winning the award for best movie or whatever.
    What a shitty, shitty network. I hope Human Giant gets picked up by Comedy Central so I can avoid MTV altogether. Saying MTV is for 13 year olds is an insult to that demographic rather than an insult to MTV. I find I can stomach the programming on VH1 over anything on that channel, which I never would have been saying 10 years ago.

In fact I didn't get pissed at all, MTV is just for 14-year olds and not me. Although, Will Ferrell and Sacha kissing was hilarious, rivaling almost everything Jim Carrey has done on the show in the past, except when he accepted an award as a hippie, that was hilarious, "There's a whole lot of fine looking pussy here tonight."

    It was a terrible show full of lame jokes and references,...only giggle I got was Paris chipping her teeth on penis bars,...oh and the cut to her reaction,...Sara S I think is a great talent ,..but I gotta say I loved her hosting The Saturn Awards better,....at least her material,...everyone seemed awkward and disjointed,...I dont know maybe Im cranky,.....and the spoofs sucked really bad,...really bad,...That whole thank the writers quip from J.B kinda pissed me off too,....Its like "hey dickhead producer if anybody should thank the writers wouldnt it be you"Dance Johnny dance,...when I say jump,.. guess what?? Johnny jumps,....I hated it ,..worse produced MTV MOVIE AWARDS ,....EVER!!!

    excellent show...

    by jig98

    it was very edgy and creative this year, although we could've done without all the cheap shots and transformers ads. and those fucking godawful musical numbers that have no point to be in the show just show sarah silverman can change into a different outfit. i turned on the new genius episode of the sopranos just as jay-z came out of his 12th retirement. a word to mikey jordan on this as well. dudes, when you say you're done, that means..YOU'RE DONE. that's it. no ifs ands or buts about it. you don't keep coming back to whatever the hell it is you were doing because you remain loyal to it. fuck it and move to the next thing. and now on to weather..
    just kidding. the highlights had to be when sacha baron cohen and will ferrell did that "from here to eternity" on-stage kiss for talledega nights. and when jack attack got best villian for the fucking awesome movie the departed. well deserved by the way. and the same goes for johnny depp for getting best male performance for pirates 2. nice little standing ovation to go with it. pirates 2 getting best movie was kind of expected and mike myers was fun to watch as always getting his award. sam the man is always awesome too whenever he's on stage. will probably watch this one a couple more times.

    What the fuck happened to MTV

    by antonphd

    That was the WORST show I've ever seen. WOW. The only thing that was remotely cool was seeing the crowd cheer that Paris Hilton was going to jail. Everything else was just fucking embaressing. I kept waiting for something cool. Anything. I saw some cool actors. Gerard Butler was cool. Borat was cool. Otherwise... the whole show... I just really felt sorry for everyone who had to attend that. And... Sarah Silverman shouldn't host shit she clearly despises. I hope she was paid a lot of money. Something good came from that piece of shit.

    None of them were funny. NOT. ONE! Those were the best of the lot? Seriously? I didn't see who won but if it was that United 300 one there's no hope for the USA. That couldn't have been in more poor taste. What the FUCK was MTV thinking airing that abomination. I'm all for free speech and that but people DIED on that airplaner and to exploit it with a fucking spoof for a giant corporate orgy of an "award" show is despicable. REPRE-FUCKING-HENSIBLE!

    The only time I actually watch MTV...

    by mr. profit

    Is when I'm on the treadmill at the gym. And believe it or not between the hours of 5AM and 7AM they DO show music videos. Aside from that I don't watch. It used to be the 1st channel I put on when I was younger, now I can't stand it. Viacom should use MTV's "10 Spot" as a place to showcase reruns of struggling/younger skewing Viacom Network shows like Veronica Mars or How I Met Your Mother or maybe even Instant Star(Which airs on The N). The only good Viacom stations are VH1 Soul and MTV Hits which show 24 hours of videos non stop. MTV though is beyond hope. And it's bad that they even had to cancel Laguna Beach. A show that was ridiculously high rated for them but slipped in its last season big time. When the kids aren't even watching their bullshit faux reality fare, they are in some seriously deep shit.

    I jus twent back and read the TB. thank you for mentioning jus thow utterly crass and disresepectful that United 300 thing was. Did that thing WIN? That is scary. MTV should be ashamed for airing that shit. I've seen United 93 and it is a wonderful and difficult film to watch. Whterh things happened the way it was portrayed i nthe film it is a tribute to everyone who dies on 9-11. To make a spoof of that is nauseating to say the least.

    by the founder

    Actually man the studio heads was not keen on Depp when they saw his take on the character. The studio heads were wanted a more swashbuckling type of Captain. The producers and director got backlash from the studio. When the studio saw Depp's take on Jack Sparrow they were concerend what type of image was he trying to project. Was this Captain Jack supposed to gay or drunk? What Depp says is true. Don't care about the other stuff.

    by emeraldboy

    moment I turned it off was minutes after the passengers realised there was a bomb on board. I couldnt watch the film after that. even though you know whats going to happen in the end and even though the chaos on the day was brilliantly handled by greengrass. There was a point where I couldnt watch the movie anymore. Besides Paul greengrasses best films are Omagh and bloody sunday. In omagh there is a moment where Gerald mCsorely' bereft dad goes to meet Gerry Adams(played in a magnificent perferomance by jonathan White) and he asks adams why he wont give up the names of the real Ira leaders. That scene is best pieces of acting I have ever seen. Bloody sunday remains Paul greengrasses masterpiece. A truly brilliant reconstruction of one of the most horrifying chapters of modern day irish history. I dont think Jimmy nesbitt will ever be as good as that again. Even though Ivan cooper never said those words as spoken by nesbitt. They were true. If you enter someones s country and kill 13 innocent people. You will have serious repercussions. if go into someones country and bring down the govt by force you will have repercussions too. The ira nearly did but they failed. Internment doesnt work. They Ira fought against what they called diplock court system. British created more terrorists and not less. I laothe the Ira as much as I Laothe. al-aqada. but I see the same parallels. Even the establishment of a sectarian govt in iraq is eerily familiar to me because in NI they already have one. america has created little muslim versions of gerry adams and Ian paisley. Paisley junior hates gays and lesbians and he is govt.

    by trader groucho 2

    One of the first and I think most telling stunt-casting roles Hilton got was the first season of Veronica Mars. UPN stuffed this down Rob Thomas' throat (I'm just guessing, I wasn't there, but come on, you KNOW I'm right) and Paris wound up playing a rich-bitch two-faced slut who gets shunned by her rich boyfriend and all her other rich friends when they find out she's fucking a (GASP!) Mexican. And a POOR one at that.

    I'm also guessing she wasn't really in on the joke.
