The MTV Movie Awards took a pretty dramatic left turn this Sunday night (on May 7, 2017), reinventing itself not only as a dual Movie and TV Awards show, but one with a fairly pronounced social conscience. The results were occasionally mixed for MTV’s second-biggest night, but it certainly made the show an interesting sign of the times. We will definitely remember:
Vin Diesel’s Fast and the Furious Generation Award Acceptance Speech
“In 2002, I was standing on this stage and MTV had given Paul Walker and I an award for Best Duo — and now 15 years later, I’m with my whole family and you’re giving us the generation award.”
