The Razzies basically awards actors and movies for the worst performances of the year, in case you weren't aware.
This year The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 walked away with seven total taking the categories for Worst Ensemble, Worst Director (Bill Condon), Worst Actress (Kristen Stewart), Worst Supporting Actor (Taylor Lautner), Worst Picture, Worst Screen Couple (Taylor Lautner and Mackenzie Foy), and Worst Rip-off or Sequel. Twilight had 11 total nominations making the record of being nominated more times than there are categories. Ouch haha.
Other winners for the Razzies included Rihanna for Worst Supporting Actress for her debut in Battleship, Adam Sandler for Worst Actor for That's My Boy, and That's My Boy also edged Breaking Dawn Part 2 (by one vote) for Worst Screenplay.
I personally find the Razzies hilarious and the results for this year is probably the best thing I saw all day. Thanks for another great year, guys!

Dr Finkelstein: What makes the Razzies the authority to judge the worst movies and performances? Please enlighten me. Also, why do you vou consider the Razzies hilarious and the results this year the best?
ReplyDeleteThe Razzies are essentially a joke. Since I have a sense of humor and will admit movies are bad I tend to enjoy seeing who the worst picks are.
DeleteAlso bear in mind the Razzies are mostly a popular vote basis so it is truly voted based on viewer/audience opinion. Not a bunch of old folks in Hollywood who pick movies no one ever gets to see in time.
