Newcomer Chloe Grace Moretz, who came on the radar in Kick-Ass, had a big night as well, getting two helpings of Golden Popcorn for Best Breakout Star and Biggest Badass Star.
The Harry Potter franchise was saved from total defeat at ther hands of the vampires and werewolves of their Twilight counterparts by Tom Felton, who was named Best Villain for his role as Draco Malfoy in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. Ellen Page won for Best Scared-as-S**t performance for freaking out in Inception. Emma Stone got Best Comedic Performance for her role in Easy A.
And 7-year-old Alexys Nycole Sanchez of Grown Ups took home the inaugural Best Line From a Movie trophy for uttering, "I want to get chocolate-wasted."
It wouldn’t be an awards show without Justin Bieber, who added another trophy to his collection, getting Best Jaw Dropping Moment for his big number in Justin Bieber: Never Say Never.
The musical highlight was provided by the Foo Fighters, who ripped through their new single "Walk" with as much conviction as any actor shown in the numerous film highlights. The band was introduced by Jim Carrey, on hand to hype Mr. Popper's Penguins. He showed up in a green-screen suit that featured footage of humping bulldogs.
Reese Witherspoon, accepting this year's MTV Generation Award, had a piece of advice for female viewers. "I just want to say to all the girls out there: I know it's cool to be bad, I get it. But it's also possible to make it in Hollywood without a reality show. So for all the girls out there, it's possible to be a good girl."
