"Thank you very much," Stiller said, accepting the award. "I feel everything tonight was a great, great honor - hit the nail on the head many times and I'm glad I got to show some of my range tonight. I'm glad there was a lot of press here who will hopefully take note of that. See you at the Oscars next year?"
