The movie was also nominated for a handful of other stunts.

Did anyone else see the broadcast? Great show!

The Rock hosted the show and Mr. T was the show's backstage announcer. They were both hysterical.

To me that was the only awards show I've enjoyed all the way through(and took seriously) in years. I'll def be on the look out for it again next year.

That fashion show with the stunt people wearing the heaping helpings of pyro gel on their bare skin then being ignited and strolling down the catwalk while burning was very cool to watch.

The story of Mr. T hiring Erik Estrada and Doris Roberts to kill The Rock so he could be the host next year, (as well as failing himself to get the job done) was funny. Rock makes a great host.

I have to say the Tarus World Stunt Awards was quite a fun watch, it was certainly more exciting then most other award shows.

By the way, the winning Fight scene was from Dead Man's Chest...not AWE.
