Any fans of the Razzies? For those unfamiliar:

"Originally held in the exotic location of "John Wilson's Living Room," the Razzie Awards are conducted annually on the evening before the Oscars.

I would give my vote to anything that 'Little Man' is associated with. I could barely even stand to watch the commercials for that movie!!!

Worst Supporting Actress

Kate Bosworth - Superman Returns

This is the only movie nominated that I have seen, and I completely agree. I don't know what they were thinking casting this anorexic teenager as the smart, edgy Lois Lane.

Thanks Nancy, I was so happy to see Wicker Man on there. I was so upset that I spent two hours of my life on that movie. I was very disappointed in Nicholas Cage for even taking the part, it's silly but I can't get over it, I HATED that movie.

[BarryH]

Alright, "Bloodrayne" is on the list! I saw it on DVD. It was horrid. Worst movie ever! I got it for free because I had a free rental coupon, but I was so tempted to ask for my money back.

Here's how I would vote:

Worst Picture
Bloodrayne

Worst Actor
Rob Schneider - Bench Warmers and Little Man
*I voted for Schneider for making a string of terrible movies. It's like an award for a lifetime of bad work!

Worst Actress
Kristanna Loken - Bloodrayne

Worst Supporting Actor
Ben Kingsley - Bloodrayne

Worst Supporting Actress
Michelle Rodriguez - Bloodrayne

Worst Excuse for Family Entertainment
Garfield 2: A Tail of Two Kitties
*Who greenlit a second one? The first one was terrible!

I'll add one...

Worst lifetime achievement award: Uwe Boll

OK, they shouldn't pick on The Santa Clause. Campy and we love it.

HOWEVER, I nodded in agreement when I saw Lady in the Water on the list. DH and I are HUGE Shyamalan fans (we get what he's saying and his whole director thing for all his movies), but that one. Wow. There are no words. Haven't seen/heard of the rest, probably for good reason!

[HiddenMickey]

I haven't seen most of those films...and likely never will.

However, I did see Just My Luck....and I liked it. I don't think Lindsay was awful.

The only others I saw were RV (yes, pretty bad), Garfield Tale of Two Kitties (DD's choice...she liked it), Employee of the Month (yeah, Jessica not so good), Pink Panther (my kids like it), The Shaggy Dog (kids like it), Superman Returns (DH walked out of the living room never to return...DS and I finished it....yuck).


Am I remembering this right? Haven't there been times when some of the movies that the Razzies nominate are also nominated in Oscar catagories? Anyone remember an instance?

[Jammers]

I will admit, I loved RV. So much so I bought it as soon as it was released on dvd. What I want to know is why Monster House isn't on the list!

Wikipedia has an awesome page on the Razzies:

Golden Raspberry Awards - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The only movie i have seen from that list is RV and it was pretty bad. One of my DS co-workers mentioned rented it from NetFlix....and she said, "It has Robin Williams in it...it can't be all that bad." Anyway...it is okay to see once but not one to buy.

I have seen 4 of the 5 Best Picture nominees for the Oscars though.

BTW...Moster House was nominated for an Golden Globe....not sure why it was pretty bad in my opinion. I thought Flushed Away was much better and that one didn't even make the list.

I haven't seen any of those movies. We really want to see Santa Clause 3. I know not everyone likes them but we loved 1 & 2. We also thought about seeing RV, but haven't yet. DH didn't want to rent it because his Dad said it was bad. I'll probably rent it one night when he's gone. Thanks for all the info.
