seriously Glen Powell is such a handsome and smooth charmer haha... the words he says could totally make anyone swoon, even 79-year old Jerry Bruckheimer xD. He even managed to sorta reference a line from Set it up and Jerry Maguire which the audience lapped it all up! hahaha.. and that cheeky smile after he dropped the line.... Tom Cruise would be proud... xD

‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ Wins Best Movie for Grownups Award

Disney-Lucasfilm’s “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” has won the best movie for grownups award, presented Monday night at AARP The Magazine’s 17th annual awards show at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel.

“The Last Jedi” topped “Get Out,” “Lady Bird,” “The Shape of Water” and “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri” for the prize. Mark Hamill and Kelly Marie Tran presented the award to director Rian Johnson, who said that it was time to retire the dictum that one should not meet one’s heroes.

Green Book Is the ‘Best Movie for Grownups’ of 2018, According to the AARP

Plus awards for Glenn Close and Richard E. Grant.

Last year, our Mark Harris asked a pressing question: “Who was Green Bookfor?” And last night, at its 18th annual “Movies for Grownups Awards,” the AARP answered: It’s for grown-ups, silly! The magazine awarded Peter Farrelly’s movie the top prize, anointing it the “Best Movie for Grownups” of 2018.

The story of Don Shirley and Tony “Lip” Vallelonga had a slow start at the box office last year. Still, the awards-giving-gods (a.k.a. the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the Producers Guild, the filmmakers and academics of the National Board of Review, and now the AARP) can’t seem to stop heaping it with accolades, even in the midst of controversy.

At the AARP’s awards, Green Book beat out A Star Is Born, BlacKkKlansman, Can You Ever Forgive Me?, and Roma to take home the top prize. Viggo Mortensen took home Best Actor for Green Book, and to the shock of probably no one, Glenn Close continued her cleanup and took home Best Actress for The Wife for the eighth time this awards season. The aptly named Best Intergenerational Film went to Mary Poppins Returns.

The awards were presented last night, and the taped ceremony will air on February 15.
