2003 MTV Movie Awards

Dude. Fantastic opening parody of Matrix Reloaded. Justin + Seann = kick ass hosts

Hugh & Famke presenting with a stupid geeky fan bit. That was great though. Siren. *snerk* Jen Garner was so cute accepting the Breakthrough Female award with her usual grace. I luff her ^_^ Er.. the popcorn shoots out of the podeum now. Weird.

Mike Myers - Best Comedic Performance. Yoda & Christopher Lee win Best Fight with Yoda accepting the award. That was odd. Great performance by Pink.. a little on the slashy side, eh? Cool though. I want her gloves. Adrian Brody & Queen Latifah making out on stage? Amusing. Such backlash for that kiss he planted on Halle at the Oscars. I think Jen & Ben should have won Best Kiss over Kirsten & Tobey, but whatever. The boy did almost drown doing the scene. I did think she was a bit to snarky saying Jen& Ben "bit their scene"; the expression on Jen's face was great.

Charlie's Angel mockumentary was only amusing because Vince Vaughn is the man and I could believe Patrick Swazy (sp?) did a cameo. I already knew they were going to win, but Sean Astin, Elijah Wood, & Gollum for Best Team! Whee! The acceptance was pretty amusing, especially with 30 people shouting Andy Serkis. This was, of course, totally ruined by the following 50 Cent performance because he annoys me so.

Eminem winning best breakthrough male was unsurprising. And the girl from the Ring was yeah... definitely Best Villian. So creepy. If I can get that close to Ashton Kutcher... mmm.. yummy.

Seann and Justin really aren't hosting. I mean, they are, but they aren't appearing as often as I was thinking. Oh well.

Lord of the Rings takes Best Action Sequence (with an amusing acceptance by Peter Jackson wherein he insults Viggo & Bernard and they chase him with swords) and Best Virtual Performance. Holy. Shit. There better be a video of Gollum's acceptance speech because that was farkin hilarious. It started with Andy accepting the award on behalf of Gollum and Gollum busts in an snatches the popcorn away. He had some choice words for everyone, including calling Jackson a hack and calling everyone else bastards. Oh. My. God. I could not stop laughing. After it was done, they had a reaction shot of Elijah, who was mouthing "that was so awesome."

tATu performed with their usual confused hijinx. They are horrible live, by the way.

Best Female Performance went to Kirsten Dunst, who was once again kind of snarky. What's up with her? Oh, and I believe she's dating Jake Gyllenhal. Hrm. *shrug* Best Male went to Eminem, who did the obnoxious "I've got mail!" skit from Crank Yankers with a couple MTV appropriate tweaks.

Lord of the Rings the Two Towers won Best Movie! Woohooo! With Sean apologizing for Gollum and Billy being... Billy ^_^ T'was very cute. The presentation by Keanu was.. eh.

Have just finished watching the post show. Nothing of note except Elijah jumping on Ian Robinson's back. I love Lij. Where do I sign up for one?

LJ's being a bastard and not loading. Gonna go watch Plunkett & Macleane before bed...

1:52 AM:

Just watched Plunkett & Macleane. Great film. Will have to watch it again when I'm not half-asleep.

Probably going to read some fic before bed. I have a yin for Dark Ferret's Voyage. Pirates, Logan & Rogue. What more could I ask for?

Wooohoooo! Firefly on DVD!

via fireflyfans.net:

Talking of humans, Fillion has a warm place in his heart for the thousands who started a snail mail and Internet campaign to try and persuade the powers that be to re-think their plans for Firefly's untimely demise. "The series may not have continued but their voices raised enough clamour that the whole season has been committed to DVD for which I am forever grateful."



People who steal icons: YOU ARE FUCKING BASTARDS. If you can't ask or give credit, take 'em down when you get caught. Don't be a dick. When you steal, you should know that we, who you steal from, have vicious, vicious friends who will harass you until you stop being a dirty thief.

On that note.. I think all my icons need to be updated with a mark or something. Maybe tomorrow I'll do that. *shrug*

Sezza - I had the torrent for DWL up and it seemed to be uploading. I'll leave it on overnight, I guess. Let me know if it works or whatever.

Bed now....

(no subject)

Eesh. Is it really noon already? ::groggy:: I need to get up and shower and.. do stuff.

My father came home early this week. Yay. :-P He's puttering around in the kitchen right now. Mom & bro are going to the dentist later for some stuff. I think I may have to go in case mom can't drive back.

For anyone who missed it/want it: Gollum's MTV Movie Awards Acceptance Speech. As Lijah says at the end, "That was fucking awesome." fyrdrakken, do you still need those screencaps, and what part do you want capped?

Amusing flash thing of the day: FLY GUY

I should not look at Lip Service. No, I should not. Because I want this, and this.. don't forget this and this. And can I have what's in this?

Did a little trimming of my friend's list. Only deleted people I don't read anymore or never added me back.

ass·hat
n. slang
1. A thoroughly contemptible, detestable person.
2. Tight fitting underwear
[sny: asshole, asshead, assclown, asswad, asshot, assface, prick, faggot, whitey tighties]

A google search brings up 4,450 results. Among the most amusing:

+ Asshat: the official site (all fictional material, of course)
+ Asshat.org - a perfect example of an asshat
+ UrbanDictionary.com definitions
+ Am I An Asshat or Not?

So. There you go. It's an actual slang word.

Cafepress.com

Been reading things at their board and I dunno.. I might go back to them. They have the widest amount of products and I suppose that the tax information is fair enough. Not completely happy with a 5% cut of my profit, or the emptying of your balance after 180 days if it is under $25. If they change that to CafeCash or something, I could deal. *shrug*

Soooo complicated. Wonder if I should just bite the bullet and go with them. Cancel my zazzle.com account. Or keep zazzle and see which earns me more. Heh.

Except.. Zazzle.com prints in archival inks. With like 5 different paper weights. Hrm. Maybe I'll do prints here and other crap at Cafepress...
