Sway just said in commercial that this is going to be "off the chain." By which I think he means this will take place in the year 2000. So appropriate photo is appropriate.
@JessaFields: yeah. Like the only time I watch them is when I search them out myself on youtube. I wish they'd just do a normal music awards without all the pretend that people still watch these videos bullshit.
@bluebears: Oh, yeah, MTV has nothing to do with videos anymore. I guess they're giving out an award tonight for The Best Video That Should Have Won a VMA and all the nominees are old videos. It's like, when you have to invent a category that goes back to when you showed videos so people will actually know the nominees, it might be time to give it up.
So, I'm guessing that the MTV programming from now until May 31st will be back to back specials about how amazing, influential, and brilliant past MTVMAs were. Expect to see Adam Sandler joshing about making out with Keanu Reeves daily.
The Slumdog Millionaire shithole scene grossed me out, although I knew they were trying to speak to 1) how deplorable conditions can be in the slums and 2) make a funny. But I had to look away because I could smell the shit and ugh.
I just watched that movie last night, and I think I would have liked it better if it hadn't won so many Oscars. Or maybe I'm just cynical and have a cold stone heart. The ending moved me, but I thought it was a tad too contrived. Not that it was supposed to be realistic, but I just didn't get carried away in it all like so many others.
The kissing in Milk was kinda hot, but why wasn't Franco nominated for Best Naked Swim?
am i alone in thinking that kate winslet being nominated for something like 'the reader' is a little...um...weird considering the age range that mtv is trying to court?
oh, wait a second. take the actual story out of the movie...who needs a story, anyway?.... and it's older hot chick gets with teenage boy.
@rednrowdy: I think it's incredibly weird. All of these $100 million-grossing teen movies and action movies and then... a movie about an illiterate Nazi guard that didn't even make $30 million? I really doubt that many people in the MTV demographic saw it, even with that "older hot chick getting with the teenage boy" storyline.
@JessaFields & @CGirl: : it's like they think "oh, kate was in 'titanic', so she's just awesome". i'm not saying she's a good actor because she is, but this role? this movie? out of all the parts given to women in 2008, really?! just because she won an oscar for this part doesn't mean it's suitable...
I cannot even believe I'm weighing in on this, but...I don't think Freida and Dev actually kissed in Slumdog Millionaire. Which is its own barrel of WTF.
Also, how is Ashley Tisdale nominated for a breakthrough in the third movie in the series?

I just wanted to see how he looked with shorter hair (I know, weird in itself) and kinda got carried away with the photo editing:
