The Human Centipede was robbed. I know, I know, it didn't have a qualifying LA release. Rules were made to be broken.

I really don't understand all the hate for Megan Fox. I didn't think she was particularly good or bad in Jonah Hex... she was just kind of a generic place holder..as in

"We need a pretty young actress for this role? Eh, here, just plop this spare one in there."

But the others in the worst actress catagory, Buddha on a Biscuit can we just give them all a Razzie award, maybe some sort of a group one they all can share?

I disagree with Gerard Butler as worst actor for Bounty Hunter. He may have been delivering shit sandwiches, but he still managed to be smypathetically charming / enjoyable in the awful role. He's a guy I tend to like in movies I hate, even that one with the Heigl.

And Cyrus was dreadfully flat in Last Song, but Greg Kinnear was splendid and Bobby Coleman was fantastic. I hope Coleman keeps getting work; watch him across from John Cusack in Matrian Child sometime. Splendid film, and the kid is amazing.

So much hate for Sex and the City and Twilight. Aaarrgh.

Posted by: Jessica at January 24, 2011 9:34 AM

Can someone please take the puppies out of the bag and replace with all the nominees, add a few bricks and then dump them in a very deep lake!

So Cherilyn Kabukimask , Liza Double Martini, and Babs Yentl all make the hit list for worst actress this year for the Razzies.

But put them on the same stage in Vegas singing showtunes and it would be FABULOUS!

Either that or each one of them would duke it out for Supreme Stage Diva like some sort of musical Mortal Kombat. With the winner moving on to take up mics against another singer/actor and San Francisco favorite the Divine Bette Midler.

Let the games begin!

Josh Brolin’s Face & Megan Fox’s Accent / Jonah Hex

This made me laugh out loud. And then I had to read it out loud and laugh again. I don't know why this struck me as so funny.

I hope that Clash of the Titans loses everything forever, and that Louis Letterier is a gracious recipient of the reward.

I gotta say, it's pretty cheap and a huge copout to nominate the kids from The Last Airbender. I haven't seen it, but they're just kids hired to do what the director tells them to do. Same with Jake Lloyd from Phantom Menace -- it's not his fault he sucked. While blowing a raspberrry is, assuredly, a childish act, this kind of snark ought to be reserved for adults who have earned it through years and years of bad choices, bad performances, and consistently abusing their undeserved celebrity. Or, Justin Bieber.

My comment in summation: Won't someone please think of the children?!

Posted by: RobP at January 24, 2011 11:02 AM

The worst actress category is going to be tough this year. I'd say the two front runners are Miley Cyrus and Kristen Stewart. Just two expert thespians right there... that was a difficult sentence to type even if it was sarcastic.

Posted by: RedRage at January 24, 2011 11:30 AM

Ok, I dislike Twilight as much as the next guy, and all the actors did deserve to be nominated for their performances, but come on. It was by far the best in the series and David Slade did not deserve the nomination. He took a weak cast, and a horrible premise and made the best movie he possibly could have. Was it good? No, not at all. Was it deserving of Worst Picture? Not when:

Yogi Bear
Gulliver's Travels
Charlie St. Cloud
Resident Evil 4
and
Cats and Dogs 2

all came out in the same year.

Ha, I love the Razzies.

But what do you want to bet that that fucker Ashton Kutcher decides that it would be HILARIOUS to go to the Razzies and accept the award, because that's such a new and funny thing to do? Douche will never, ever get it.

"Here you go. This is an award for how you're just AWFUL at every single thing you ever do and would you please go the fuck away now?"

"Gee, thanks! Hyuck hyuck hyuck!"

In a sweep: Sex and The City 2

Posted by: John W at January 24, 2011 12:39 PM

I tried to watch The Film Which Will Not Be Named. I got it from the library. For free. I don't think I made it through 20 minutes, and even that was spent in another room.

I can't find joy in anything anymore. I think it broke cinema.

They don't deserve a Razzie; they deserve death by candiru.

Posted by: ShagEaredVillain at January 24, 2011 1:11 PM

What do you all have against "Last Airbender?" yes, it was bad, but seriously? have ya'll no taste? Dev Patel was not a bad actor. He was great. so was everyone else. It was bad, because M. Knight doesn't know how to do a decent movie. so don't hate the movie, hate the guy directing it.

THANK YOU.

Posted by: Lordninja at January 24, 2011 1:33 PM

I can't even remember what The Film Which Will Not Be Named is. I thought it was maybe the Homo Sapiens Chilopod...but I sure hope that's not being acquired by any public libraries. Not in these difficult economic times when your civil institutions already have to cut so much.

Posted by: Sara Tonin at January 24, 2011 1:37 PM

Vampires Suck. That's the film that's not being named.


Also, the Razzies are just getting lazy. I mean, get some diversity in your categories, ffs. There were a ton of awful movies released.

Posted by: duckandcover at January 24, 2011 4:18 PM

@Lordninja

Exactly! Don't hate on the kids man. About 20 min. into the movie I could see that the cast were doing their best but they just weren't getting it right. Dev Patel was actually kinda great as angsty!Zuko. Blame Shamalamadingdong-wossername for wasting squillions on crappy 3D cgi instead of making an acceptable film adaptation.
/end pissy rant.

Finally an award Jennifer Aniston has a shot at winning. I think Aniston deserves a lifetime achievement award for the Razzies. She's made so many bad movies and has been horrible in all of them. At this point, it's time she's recognized for her (lack of) achievement!

Posted by: Kylie at January 24, 2011 9:24 PM

People who still use the term "hate on" after 1998 need to be beat to death with their own intestines.

Posted by: vdantev at January 24, 2011 10:12 PM

@Kylie: I completely agree with you 100%. 'Team Aniston' all the way with this one.

Posted by: Anon at January 24, 2011 10:27 PM

Oh no, I'm clearly losing my edge -- I actually enjoyed (well, it wasn't Shakespeare or anything) the film that shall not be named. But in fairness, I saw it after a double feature of Sex and the City 2 and Twilight. I don't know why I do this to myself.
