- It was the kiss that blew 1000 minds,
congratulations to the GOAT legendary lip lock,
Selma Blair and Sarah Michelle Gellar.
(cheering)
- Thank you MTV, for not just recognizing the kiss now
with the Golden Goat...
- But also with a popcorn trophy back in 2000 for best kiss.
- Making this the single most awarded kiss
in cinema history.
You don't have to Google it. I already did.
- I think the reason the kiss has resonated with people
for so long is not just for the initial shock value,
but because it was a catalyst
for so many young people,
to help them realize certain aspects of their sexuality,
and help make people comfortable
to be who they really are.
- It also represented a paradigm shift
to a new dynamic towards acceptance in pop culture.
Well, and also, it was super hot.
- So as a special thanks, we'd like to recreate it,
right here, for you guys.
(romantic music)
(music cuts) (laughter)
- Stay safe, MTV. And 2020? End soon.
- Please. Love you.
- To honor Chadwick Boseman,
please welcome Robert Downey, Jr. and Don Cheadle.
- The second you first saw him onscreen
or had the opportunity to meet him in person,
his energy and intensity was undeniable.
There was something different and special
about Chadwick Boseman.
- Each time he stepped on the set,
he inspired and influenced everyone there,
and with every role, he created a new legion of fans.
He had an incredible power to unify people,
in their love for his work,
and their respect for him as a person.
The way he lived his life united people
behind a higher purpose, and that will be his legacy.
- The Avengers have all been given an opportunity
to portray characters that are meaningful,
and hopefully memorable.
Mr. Boseman truly embodied what it meant to be a superhero.
His impact as a groundbreaking leading man,
as an icon onscreen,
it won't be quantified by the box office records he broke,
but by the legions of fans who will celebrate him
for many years to come.
- Chadwick will be forever known as the Black Panther,
but he also painted incredibly powerful portrayals
of iconic and influential real men,
who changed the world.
Thurgood Marshall, James Brown, Jackie Robinson.
He brought humanity and truth to the portrayal of people
who felt larger than life,
and he did it in a way that honored their memories.
- And he wasn't just a hero onscreen.
His list of selfless and inspirational acts and deeds
is too long to recount here,
consistently showing up during trial and triumph
for family, friends, and fans alike,
some of whom were battling the same invisible enemy.
He was the most heroic when just being Chad.
That's when he was bigger than anyone he played onscreen.
- We are both so proud to be part of this award,
recognizing him, the greatest of all time,
our hero for the ages, Chadwick Boseman.
- Congratulations to our GOAT she-ro, Gal Godot.
- Thank you so much MTV for honoring me
with the first ever Golden Goat She-ro award.
It's been one of the greatest joys in my life
to play this character.
She means so much to me, and I know how much she's loved
by all of her fans, so to be part of her legacy
is truly truly truly special.
I'm so excited for Wonder Woman fans around the world
to take this next journey with me in Wonder Woman 1984,
I can hardly believe we finally get to experience it,
but I think you'll feel it's been worth the wait.
- Give it up for the GOAT dynamic duo honorees,
Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler!
- Here we are, Adam, together again,
even though we're really far apart.
- Due to the restraining order you took out on me, Drew.
- No, due to this horrible pandemic.
The restraining order was apparently unnecessary.
- See, you rushed it.
So it looks like MTV is giving us an award, Drew,
for the best duo of all time, that's great.
- I'm flattered, and that is an amazing honor,
although, I would've gone with Adam and Eve.
- Batman and Robin.
- Peanut butter and jelly.
- Good. Gin and tonic?
- I think we're better than gin and tonic.
Well, almost.
Anyway, it was so much fun to make a movie with you
in every of the last three decades.
- Yes, yes, and Drew, it's 2020,
so you know what that means.
- Everything sucks?
- Yeah, that's true, but also, it's a new decade,
so we got to make another movie together.
- Yes, right, well,
let's wait until we find something amazing.
I mean, we do have 10 years.
- Nine years and one month.
- You're right. Well, that's not enough time.
I don't know, it doesn't matter.
It has to be special.
We need to create a duo as iconic as Julia and Robbie,
Henry and Lucy, and... what were our names in Blended again?
- I forget, Jack and Jill?
- No, you did that movie without me,
and that actress you got to play Jill was horrible.
- She was nice and she was pretty, so I disagree.
- All right, I'll admit it, I'm into her.
Anyway, we would like to thank MTV.
- Oh my god, yes, MTV, thank you so much for my
entire career.
And for always being nice to me and Drew over the years.
- Thank you for the Golden Goat. (bleats)
- Yeah, yeah! Love you, Drew.
- Congratulations to the GOAT heartbreaking breakup,
my friend who let it all out on screen, Jason Segel,
and Kristin Bell.
- Hey, everybody, thank you so much for this award.
We're really excited to receive it.
Yeah, I'm so happy to be here.
It was a great experience, and to get to reunite with Sarah,
that's awesome, so it's really good to see you.
- Kristin. It's Kristin.
- Yeah, yeah, Kiersten.
- Doesn't matter. I'm excited to be here as well.
This is such a cool thing to be recognized,
this was a pivotal movie for me,
I loved working with Jason, and Nick Stoller,
and they wrote this brilliant film,
and now you guys are acknowledging it,
I mean the greatest breakup,
that is something to be proud of.
- Yeah, totally, it's so neat to see you, too,
and just that you would
come all this way to hang out together,
it's really awesome.
- Well, yeah, again, 'cause I'm here to accept the award,
'cause I feel so grateful to receive it,
and that I love the fans out there,
and I'm so grateful to you, Jason,
for giving me this opportunity,
and here to accept the award.
- Cool. I feel like we're saying the same thing.
- Sort of, yeah.
- I mean we don't have to fight about it.
- I'm not fighting.
- No, I'm not fighting either, I just, I'm happy to see you.
I still have these.
- I can see that. I'm happy to see you, too, but...
You know what? Never mind, it's in the past.
- To us.
- Thank you so much for the award,
so how about to the award?
- To us. - To the accomplishment.
- Yeah, to what we accomplished together as a team.
- Thank you so much, everybody.
- The greatest of all time scream queen is Jamie Lee Curtis.
- Thank you so much Neve, my fellow scream queen,
I'm honored to receive this from you.
I'm just so excited.
To all the fans at MTV,
and obviously all of the fans of horror movies,
I thank you personally from the bottom of my heart,
it's been an amazing time.
And you know, MTV was invented in 1981,
and Halloween was invented in 1978,
so I feel like we've grown up together,
and as you know, it's a relationship.
It's a partnership, as is the movie business.
And obviously, I would not be standing here
were it not for John Carpenter, Debra Hill,
Irwin Yablans, and Moustapha Akkad,
who brought you the first movie.
And now, all these years later,
42 years later, David Gordon Green,
Malek Akkad, Blumhouse, Universal, Miramax,
have all come together to bring you another Halloween,
and now two more.
And it's a partnership between you guys and the film makers.
But for me, the greatest partnership,
and the only reason I'm standing here today,
is my partnership with my friend, Michael.
So I'd like to bring him out, Michael!
Hey! It's okay.
Oh, Michael, don't be scared, come. Come on.
No, no, no, they're not scary, they love you.
It's okay, seriously, come on.
Everybody, Michael Myers, my friend,
and often foe, but I wouldn't be here without you guys
and I certainly wouldn't be here without you.
So, would you hold this for me for one second?
Oh, don't worry, we both had COVID tests,
and he's wearing a mask, the greatest mask ever,
and I am now wearing a mask, the second greatest ever.
So from the bottom of our hearts,
we both thank you so, so much for this incredible honor,
and hope that you enjoy the next two movies,
Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends.
(laughs)
He gets me every time.
Thanks, you guys! Love you!
You don't have to say anything.
He doesn't say anything, he's so quiet!
- Congratulations to the GOAT comedy giant, Kevin Hart.
- Wow, huge, major thank you, MTV.
I appreciate you guys so much.
Comedy giant award, you know what, Imma take the award,
I'm actually gonna throw it back at my fans, man,
because this doesn't happen without you guys.
I'm gonna say thank you all for supporting me,
loving me, holding me down,
throughout all the years.
You got almost 20 years of comedy, man.
20 years of standup comedy,
so in any type of comedy that's in this path
that I've been on for all these years,
the one thing that's consistent is you guys,
so I love you, I appreciate you,
major shout out to the Hart household,
my wife, my kids, I do it for you guys,
and once again, MTV, man, this is big.
I hate that I can't eat it.
I wish I could eat it.
If I could eat it, it would be great.
It's great either way.
Five foot four, and now a giant.
Thank you guys so much.
- Congratulations to the first GOAT
entering the Hall of Greatness,
a man who knows that life means nothing
if you can't dance your ass off.
Kevin Bacon!
- Oh, wow, I can't believe it.
I am so excited to be winning this Golden Goat award
for dancing my ass off all those years ago,
I am truly honored.
I just wanna say thank you to Herb Ross and Dan Melnick,
and Craig Zadan and Dean Pitchford,
for giving me the opportunity
to be in that life-changing movie.
And also I wanna thank Lynn Taylor-Corbett,
who taught me all those GOAT-worthy moves
all those years ago.
Guys, we got a Golden Goat, can you believe it?
- The MTV GOAT Zero to Hero honoree is William Zabka.
Hey, man, MTV nominated you the GOAT!
- What? MTV called me a goat?
I'll show 'em who's the goat.
Play more Def Leppard.
Haven't watched your stupid channel since '85.
Technically couldn't afford it.
Bring back Martha Quinn, what happened to the music videos?
I love that show Remote Control, bring that back.
I wanna meet Kurt Loder.
What's with all the reality stuff, what happened to rap?
I don't want my MTV. Call me a goat, you're the goat!
- Hey, sensei, a GOAT is actually a good thing.
- It means greatest of all time.
- They even sent a trophy!
- Oh, really?
That's what this is?
I almost didn't sign for it.
They didn't give one of these to LaRusso?
That's pretty cool.
Thank you guys, thank you MTV.
On behalf of Johnny Lawrence,
I am honored to receive this badass golden tub of popcorn,
which wouldn't be possible without a few heroes of my own.
So I'd like to thank Robert Kaman for writing The Karate Kid
and creating this character.
Josh Heald, John Horowitz, and Hayden Schlossberg,
the creators of Cobra Kai,
for picking up the torch three decades later
and giving Johnny new life, depth, humor,
and a shot at redemption.
To Ralph Macchio, for the legacy we've shared
and continue to share, there's no Johnny Lawrence
without your Daniel LaRusso.
You're the best around.
And to Jeff Frost, my family at Sony Pictures Entertainment,
thank you for all of your support,
and believing in the show from day one.
All my friends at Overbrook Entertainment,
and our new home at Netflix,
thank you for opening up your dojo
and giving us a global platform.
To my team, Gary Ousdahl, Advanced Management,
and Eric Feig, my sensei on and offscreen, Martin Kove,
and the entire cast and crew of Cobra Kai,
I love you all, can't wait to get back to work
and continue this story.
And finally, to all the fans,
thank you for sticking with Johnny all these years,
I dedicate this to you.
This is the best thing to happen to Johnny since ZZ Top
released their Legs music video in 1983.
Thank you very much. Good night.
