The MTV Movie Awards: Actually Funny

Posted by Maggie June 1st, 2009 at 11:09am In General

I know, I’m as surprised as you are! I didn’t even start watching the Awards on purpose — it was just there, and it was Sunday night, and I’d already watched the spectacular Pushing Daisies from Saturday. And then all of a sudden Andy Samberg is singing about how cool guys don’t look at explosions and I’m commenting on how much weight Eminem has lost and I’m twittering like a pre-teen about New Moon.

If you didn’t watch it (and why would you, really?), Videogum has collected the funniest moments. I would also add the “best sound editor” bit that Samberg did with an audience plant.

I’d also remove the Bruno bit from the list. I am SO over Bruno. Staged or not, it’s just stupid.

In conclusion: Andy Samberg is good at hosting things I don’t care about! Hopefully this is good sign for the hosting gig I’m really excited about this week: Neil Patrick Harris hosting the Tonys on Sunday. (Whoa. Overwhelmed by own nerdery there.)
