About 30 seconds into Austin Powers, we knew that we had to have Mike Myers host the show. And did he disappoint? Oh no. But ultimately it was Jim Carrey's night. Scream took home best picture, but Jimbo bagged Best Villain AND Best Comedic Performance for The Cable Guy.
Fun Fact: In his Best Villain acceptance speech, Jim Carrey took his win as "undeniable proof that I'm a badass mother******."
