It has been 10 years since Napoleon Dynamite awkwardly danced his way into audiences' hearts, brought laughter in unexpected forms and showed the world that unique is awesome.
Presidents of Fox Searchlight Steve Gilula and Nancy Utley opened the ceremony and introduced Q and A moderator Anthony Breznican, from Entertainment Weekly, who chatted with writer/director Jared Hess and cast members including Jon Heder, Efren Ramirez, Tina Majorino, Diedrich Bader, Haylie Duff, Sandy Martin, Shondrella Avery and Carmen Brady.
Heder and Hess unveiled a brand new statue of Napoleon Dynamite complete with a 'Vote for Pedro' T-shirt and moon boots alongside his beloved tetherball pole in the Fox Studios lot.
The 10th anniversary edition Blu-ray is currently available for purchase now.
