- Please welcome your hosts,
Kevin Smith and Dani Fernandez.
- Hello, everyone, and welcome
to the first ever Critics Choice Super Awards.
I'm Kevin Smith.
- And I'm Dani Fernandez,
and we're so excited to be here tonight
to fan out with you over the movies and series
that are so massive, so popular,
that they all have their very own universes.
- That is right.
Man, we're talking about science fiction, kids,
fantasy, action, animation, horror,
and superhero stories--
the stories that I can't stop talking about
or podcasting about
or crying about on the Internet, man.
- Yes, that is right.
Those movies and series that have made billions of dollars.
- Finally, these scrappy underdogs of entertainment
will get the attention from the critics
that they so richly deserve.
- And it is about time.
- Yes, and being the Super Awards,
we had to have the latest in award show technology--
our very own artificial intelligence
who's controlling the whole production.
I call her Bob.
- Okay, so we have Alexa, Siri, Cortana, and now Bob.
So what does Bob stand for?
- Bob is short for Robert, Dani.
Hey, Bob, isn't Bob short for Robert?
Tell Dani.
- Yes, you are right, Kevin.
It is a pleasure to be a part
of the 2020 Critics Choice Super Awards.
Can I help you with anything? - Actually, yes, Bob.
Could you please maybe raise the temperature
in my dressing room?
It was a little chilly before. [electronic beeping]
- Done. Anything else?
- Yes, Bob, could you introduce our first presenter?
- Oh, my God, that is such a better use of Bob.
Yes, Bob, do that. - Certainly.
And I will also supply all the appropriate
audience responses like this.
Please welcome Tiffany Haddish.
[cheers and applause]
- Hey, everybody.
Tiffany Haddish here.
I'm honored to be here tonight
to present the first ever Super Award,
and it's for Best Action Movie, which is great,
because I love action movies.
Okay, I mean, I love all movies.
That's why I was in 17 of them in the past 3 years.
Also, the money was good.
Well, the money could have been better
if I was a white man, and then maybe I wouldn't have had
to do so many movies,
but that's neither here nor there.
Honestly, they're all a blur.
I mean, I just found out I was in "Angry Birds 2."
I didn't even know they made "Angry Birds 2."
Anyways, the next nominees are the most thrilling
and heart-stopping movies of the year,
and I can't wait to find out if I was in any of them.
I could be.
I mean, Tiffany Haddish likes to work.
Tell your friends. She ready. [chuckles]

"of a first responder's television family
"paying homage week to week

Although fictional,
Athena and the other "9-1-1" characters
reflect the more than 2 million men and women
across the country,

and tirelessly pulled double and triple duty
over the past few months of this pandemic.
So I dedicate this Critics Choice Super Award

[cheers and applause]
- Please welcome, from "Outlander"
and the upcoming flick "Text for You"
and a nominee this very night,
ultrahuman Sam Heughan.
- One of the greatest aspects of science fiction and fantasy
is that they boast worlds so big and so colorful,
it truly allows you to dream.
In one of my dreams--
no, not those kind of dreams.
In this one, I can sing even better than Céline Dion,
which, of course, is totally impossible.
I would have loved to have Céline here with me
since we're currently filming "Text for You" together,
but she actually specifically asked me not to sing.
So, instead, here are the nominees
for Best Actor in a Science Fiction
or Fantasy Movie.

Andy Samberg, "Palm Springs."

I think your best bet is just to learn
how to suffer existence.

There might be some way to kill yourself,
but I haven't figured it out.

Acting award.
That's exciting.
I couldn't make it to the nonexistent awards,
so I made a video.
I've just been here at the historic Bates Motel.
I'm sure nothing's gonna go wrong tonight.

If this were science fiction, I would be playing
the character who is speaking to you

That would be science fiction.
But if this were fantasy, however,
I would be talking to you through this laptop

That would be fantasy.

this movie went through a crazy journey.
I loved making it so much, and then before people saw it,
we got canceled-- it was so intense and scary.
And then we got valiantly uncanceled,
set to come out March 13, 2020,
so we got COVID canceled and then on-demand uncanceled
and then society literally crumbled around us,
upstaging the whole movie narrative, rightfully so,
but now I am in my pajamas accepting a Super Award,

as if none of that ever happened.
I'd like to thank Craig Zobel, Damon Lindelof, Nick Cuse,

based on content from a comic book,
video game, or standalone superhero story.
And now the incomparable Shohreh Aghdashloo.
- Upon their advent in newspaper comic strips,
superhero characters were occasionally dismissed
as simple, adolescent fantasies,
but through generations of evolution and reinvention,
these characters' ability to thrill as well as inspire
has grown undeniable.

Gene Roddenberry's timeless vision,
with your first ever Legacy Award.
"Star Trek" has set out to paint a future for us
that imagines,
a future guided by the United Federation of Planets--
inclusive, diverse, optimistic, hopeful.
Yes, there are adventures to be had,
perilous unknowns to be explored,
and great challenges to be met,
but "Star Trek" tells us
that no matter how deep the darkness goes,
no matter how hopeless circumstances seem,
we have only to be honest and brave,
to be curious, to be accepting,
and our future will be brighter than our past.
Our better angels guided by love
will save the day,

to one of "Star Trek's" most beloved better angels,
my partner on the path
of this bright legacy and my friend,
Sir Patrick Stewart.

- Hello.
Listening to Sonequa speak just now,
I realize what an appropriate pair we are
to be accepting the Critics Choice Super Awards'
Legacy Award.
We represent the very heart of what "Star Trek"
has so profoundly been and been about
for 55 years--
hope, courage, diversity,
age, gender,
race, and nationality.
Back in the '80s and '90s,
I wore a Starfleet uniform
while I spoke with Captain Kirk, Dr. McCoy,
Montgomery Scott, Nyota Uhura,
Hikaru Sulu, Pavel Chekov,
and, of course, Lwaxana Troi.
I had guidance from Gene Roddenberry
and Robert Justman.
I believe there has never been anything like "Star Trek,"
and its expansion to new audiences worldwide
continues to grow,
bringing entertainment, hope, and inclusivity
into millions of lives.
And on behalf of all those I mentioned,
including my wonderful "Enterprise" crew
and our devoted audiences...
For this, thank you.
