Venue: Walt Disney Studios
City: Burbank, CA
Date: June 10, 1992
Can you believe that there was ever a time when Billy Crystal could take home the Golden Popcorn for Best Comedic Performance? Well obviously you never saw City Slickers. The big story at the first MTV Movie Awards back in 1992 was Terminator 2: Judgement Day, a six-time winner that put Eddie Furlong firmly at the top of the teen heartthrob hierarchy. Performances by everyone from En Vogue to Ugly Kid Joe and a couple of vein-popping rants from host Dennis Miller helped to kick off a new Hollywood tradition with a serious bang.
Fun Fact: Leslie Nielsen was nominated for Best Kiss in Naked Gun 2 1/2. WHAT?!?
