Best in years, though that's not saying much, 5 June 2007

Despite hating MTV, I always try to check out the Movie Awards depending on the host since when done right, the event can be pretty hilarious. That hasn't been the case for the past few years with hosts like Lindsay Lohan in 2004, Jimmy Fallon in 2005, and Jessica Alba in 2006 being DOA with their deliveries. With rating declining, the producers decided to bring in someone who has actually had a great deal of experience in front a live audience: Sarah Silverman. Love her or hate her (I personally like her), Silverman is undoubtedly fearless. She's controversial, she's brave, and depending on who you ask, she knows how to tell a dirty joke. That said, it comes as no surprise that Silverman's opening monologue served as the highlight of the show with the host taking jabs at 300, Spider-Man 3 (as well as its star, Tobey Maguire), and Paris Hilton. The Hilton jokes, in my not-so-important opinion, were perfect. Mean in spirit, but perfect in delivery. It was a fantastic opening. The only problem is it was the only memorable part of the whole presentation. The rest of the overly long ceremony was, well, embarrassing to watch. Presenters came on stage and read from a teleprompter like it was their first time ever seeing one. The acceptance speeches were underwhelming, save for Gerard Butler after winning for Best Fight. Worst of all, with everything that was going on, a large chunk was downright boring. Skip it in reruns. 3/10

OK, I have no idea where to begin so let me just put it like this. Why
on Earth is Mtv doing movie awards, they have no taste in movies. They
never even had taste in music to begin with. So why are they doing
this. They are ruining children's minds with gadgets and crap that they
don't need or don't need to see, or hear, the teenagers don't even no
how to use the gadgets. Take it from me I go to high school more than
2/3 of my classmates don't even know how to use their Sidekicks. All
that money could be used to help dying people in Africa.
There is a girl who goes to my school and was recently in an Episode of
Sweet 16. Which when my friend showed me the episode online I could not
believe how spoiled and sick kids are in my school. And it is not just
my school it is everywhere. I hope these kids who behave like brats
will get a message in life and will do the right thing of helping the
world not the world revolving around them.
