Friday Fight: What Should Win "Most WTF Moment" At The MTV Movie Awards?

Even though Lindsay and Gabe are friends, they very rarely agree on anything. Every day, they have a fight about something. On Fridays, we publish one.

gabe: who do you think should win the coveted Best WTF? Moment at the MTV Movie Awards?
lindsay: Well for one thing, it should be something that is actually WTF. Like, Amy Poehler peeing in the sink in Baby Mama? She had to, there was a child lock on the toilet!
lindsay: We know exactly what the fuck on that one.
gabe: yes, that is not a wtf moment
gabe: it is very clear what is happening there
lindsay: I would say the Slumdog Millionaire scene so brilliantly described by MTV as "jumping in the poop shed" will probably definitely win.
gabe: i hope slumdog millionaire sweeps
gabe: the whole show
lindsay: Also, that was someone's job, to make up that description
gabe: i hope they win every single award
gabe: what a proud moment that will be
gabe: for slumdog millionaire fans
lindsay: oh man
gabe: another feather in that awful cap
lindsay: I see where this is going
gabe: haha
gabe: yes!
gabe: straight into the poop shed

lindsay: hahaha
gabe: slumdog millionaire should be called
gabe: Jump Into The Poop Shed
lindsay: I hope Forgetting Sarah Marshall wins, because it was a just plain awesome movie.
lindsay: Also, Jason Segel's penis
gabe: the only movie that you overrate more than that movie
gabe: is slumdog millionaire
gabe: that movie was fine
gabe: it was totally passable
lindsay: No way, as each of my friends has seen it for the second time, they have come to me
lindsay: with apologies
lindsay: and tears
lindsay: begging for my forgiveness
gabe: you should get new friends
lindsay: it's probably the best breakup movie of all time.
gabe: your friends sound funny
lindsay: It's a really really good movie.
gabe: it's a really really OK movie
lindsay: I understand that you didn't get it the first time.
lindsay: Shhhh, its okay.
lindsay: there's still time to appreciate it.
lindsay: but as you've pointed out before, all these movies are so OLD that we've had time to figure out WTF on all of those scenes.

lindsay: it's like "Best WTF Moment: Harold And Maude's Age Difference"
gabe: right
gabe: although i don't know
gabe: even though those movies are all old
gabe: it's still nice to see slumdog millionaire finally get an award for Best WTF? Moment
gabe: sorry, WANTED
gabe: better luck next year, Wanted
gabe: it's funny that MTV finally added a "WTF" category
gabe: five years after my mom started saying "WTF"
gabe: kids who watch MTV are like "what does WTF mean?"
lindsay: My favorite thing about the Wanted one is isn't it the TWIST ENDING?
gabe: and they have to get out their history books
gabe: i'm surprised they didn't scrap the Best Movie category
gabe: for Movie That Is Da Bomb
lindsay: Also, if the wanted one isn't the twist ending, then it's not even the most wtf moment in wanted.
lindsay: but they shouldn't give away the ENDING.
gabe: well, on the one hand you have a point
gabe: the WTF moment in Wanted is when they use peanut butter and mice to blow up a castle
lindsay: yes
gabe: in chicago?
gabe: the classic Chateau Chicago
gabe: but on the other hand
lindsay: that is basically the most wtf moment in cinema
lindsay: and they're rats!
lindsay: not cute little mice
gabe: i'm going to give MTV a SPOILER pass on this one
gabe: since the movie came out 14 years ago

gabe: what does that even mean, WTF moment?
gabe: none of these moments are completely detached from any kind of context
gabe: in fact, they all rest on the pretty solid framework of an ENTIRE MOVIE to help make sense of them
lindsay: I know!!
lindsay: I would actually say wanted is the most wtf in that it's surprising
lindsay: but also very "Oh, yeah, I see that they've been setting this up"
lindsay: Ayush Mahesh Khedekar (Young Jamal) takes a mud bath... in an outhouse. Get it?
lindsay: Yes, we get it.
lindsay: He's poor.

gabe: let's have an MTV Movie Awards Oscar Pool
gabe: but just for the WTF category
gabe: high stakes
gabe: if i win, you have to buy me ice cream
gabe: and if you win, you have to buy me ice cream
lindsay: what kind of ice cream?
gabe: if slumdog wins, chocolate
gabe: and if saving sarah silverman wins
gabe: mediocre flavor
gabe: like just some ice
gabe: your basic ice cone
lindsay: right. what ice cream is the color of jason segel's penis?
lindsay: peach?
gabe: EW
lindsay: you're making me eat poop!
gabe: lindsay, i'm obviously joking
gabe: but i don't see why it's so hard
gabe: to get you
gabe: to have a FUCKING ICE CREAM PARTY WITH ME
lindsay: ice cream party!
gabe: jump into the ice cream shed

IN a huge surprise (WTF moment) MTV awards themselves the award for still believing they're relevant.

Slumdog Millionaire can suck a big one. That move was straight shit all over the place. Nothing but a pat-on-the-back, gee aren't we great for caring about poor people movie. No, you're not fuckin great cause it's fuckin bollywood and its manipulative AS FUCK and those kids (not to mention like a bazillion other kids, some of whom don't even get to be so goddamned cute) are still poor as hell and in worse conditions then ever. So no, you're movie did nothing except make you fuckin care for 5 min until the Pussycat Dolls sang over it, and suddenly it wasn't trendy to like that song cause those fuckers are either too sexy or just aren't cool with Pitchfork.com.

FUCK. Sorry, that movie is just all types of wrong, and so many people felt the need to buy into it because it makes them cultured or it makes them care. UGH. Shit, can we just give awards to the fucking pillar of fuckyoueverywhichway awesomeness that was The Dark Knight still? Cause that shit has dominated pretty much everything outside of Star Trek as of late.

I think, this (http://theuniblog.evilspacerobot.com/?p=1525) should win best WTF moment of all time. It wasn't from a movie, but it happened at the awards, does that count?
