The MTV Generation Award is the successor to the MTV Lifetime Achievement Award, though it is more serious than its predecessor.

The distinction "is given to an artist who has shown us a variety of impressive roles, a personal and professional flair and of course, an awesome level of talent."

Their stated goal with the award maps so seamlessly upon any and all of the recipients' careers that I can't imagine singling any of them out. Please don't ask me to compare the variety of Mike Meyer's impressive roles with Adam Sandler's awesome level of talent.

Reese vs. RDJ for me - both have done a lot of crap but great in both small and (occasionally) big roles

RDJ is the most likeable of that bunch

Over half of that list started (or very nearly started) their career on a sketch show.
