The popular vampire movie defeated other blockbuster titles such as "The Hunger Games", "Bridesmaids", "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II" and "The Help".
Jodie Foster presented the top prize to Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart. Upon receiving the gong, Stewart excitedly gushed, "I've been promoting 'Snow White' and I get a lot of questions saying 'You must be wanting to distance yourself from this.' And I'm like, 'Shut up!' This really means a lot."
Lautner added, "We really have so many people to thank. First and foremost, we have to thank you our dedicated fans. I want to thank our incredible director Bill Condon and the creator of this thing, producer and author Stephenie Meyer. We are super excited for you to see the final installment for 'The Twilight Saga's Breaking Dawn Part II' on November 16."
