UNIVERSAL CITY, California — All week long, we've been getting you pumped up for the 2012 MTV Movie Awards with performer interviews, behind-the-scenes reveals and much more. We are soclose to show time, you can almost hear the squeals coming from inside the Gibson Amphitheatre.
While we await the start of our "Punk'd Movie Awards Pre-Party" at 8 p.m. tonight and the snazzy red-carpet arrivals, let's take a moment to walk down the memory lane of last year's action-packed extravaganza:
A Host With the Most
"Saturday Night Live" funnyman Jason Sudeikis proved to be as adept in awards-show hosting as he is with being a chameleon-esque comic with his various characters on "SNL." Sudeikis kept his jokes light and fun, with a couple of well-placed jabs at 2011 newsmaker Arnold Schwarzenegger and the "Twilight" cast.
Unsolicited Smooches and Groping
1. Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart have dominated the Best Kiss category for the past three years and delivered their best acceptance speech yet last year when Pattinson decided not to kiss Stewart and instead went running into the audience to plant a wet one on his co-star Taylor Lautner.
2. When "Friends with Benefits" co-stars Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake walked out to present the award for Best Male Performance, no one guessed that their presentation would include a mutual groping of Kunis' boobs and Timberlake's nether regions for everyone to see, but they did, and that moment lives on in infamy.
The "Deathly Hallows, Part 2" Clip
The most magical moment of last year's broadcast was an exclusive and highly anticipated preview of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2." Potter fans were treated to an emotionally charged sneak peek at the final film in the blockbuster franchise with the debut of an explosive new clip.
Jim Carrey
We can always count on Jim Carrey to deliver a memorable moment when he attends the Movie Awards. There's his unforgettable appearance in 1999 when he had everyone fooled with a clever disguise, and last year, Carrey brought down the house with a perfect blend of innovation and comedy via his green suit that featured a series of random and inappropriate images on it while Carrey introduced the Foo Fighters.
The Foo Fighters
The performance slot at the MTV Movie Awards is one of the most coveted and sought-after for artists new and old. For last year's marquee act, we enlisted one of the biggest acts in the business and a band with a storied history with MTV: the Foo Fighters, who rocked the house with their rousing live rendition of "Walk."
