31st Annual Razzie Award nominations

I ripped the Razzies pretty good a couple of weeks ago when a shortlist of their potential Worst Picture nominees was released. So how do I feel now that their picks for the worst of film in 2010 have been released? Pretty much the same.  Check out their nominations, along with a few comments from yours truly sprinkled in...

WORST PICTURETHE BOUNTY HUNTER (Columbia Pictures/Relativity Media)
THE LAST AIRBENDER (Paramount/Nickelodeon Movies)
SEX & THE CITY 2 (Warner Bros/New Line/HBO Pictures)
TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE (Summit Entertainment)
VAMPIRES SUCK (20th Century-Fox/Regency Enterprises)

Putting The Twilight Saga: Eclipse in there as one of the worst films of the year is a joke. You honestly mean to tell me that it was worse than Little Fockers or Yogi Bear? Get real. Eclipse was nominated a shocking 9 times overall.

WORST ACTORJack Black / GULLIVER’S TRAVELS
Gerard Butler / THE BOUNTY HUNTER
Ashton Kutcher / KILLERS and VALENTINE’S DAY
Taylor Lautner / TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE and VALENTINE’S DAY
Robert Pattinson / REMEMBER ME and TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE

Starting to think maybe they have a vendetta against the Twilight folks? Remember Me is not a very good flick but Pattinson is hardly that awful in it, and nominating Lautner for the 2 minutes he's on screen in Valentine's Day is ridiculous.

WORST ACTRESSJennifer Aniston / THE BOUNTY HUNTER and THE SWITCH
Mylie Cyrus / THE LAST SONG
Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis & Cynthia Nixon / SEX & THE CITY 2
Megan Fox / JONAH HEX
Kristen Stewart / TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE

I can't argue with Mylie or Megan in this one. Aniston's actually not that bad in The Switch, an underrated comedy that actually doesn't feature her all that much.

WORST SUPPORTING ACTRESSJessica Alba / THE KILLER INSIDE ME, LITTLE FOCKERS, MACHETE and VALENTINE’S DAYCher / BURLESQUE
Liza Minnelli / SEX & THE CITY 2
Nicola Peltz / THE LAST AIRBENDER
Barbra Streisand / LITTLE FOCKERS

There's our first Little Fockers sighting! Should be the first of many, which means it probably won't be.

WORST SUPPORTING ACTORBilly Ray Cyrus / THE SPY NEXT DOOR
George Lopez / MARMADUKE, THE SPY NEXT DOOR and VALENTINE’S DAYDev Patel / THE LAST AIRBENDERJackson Rathbone / THE LAST AIRBENDER and TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSERob Schneider / GROWN UPS

WORST EYE-GOUGING MIS-USE Of 3-D (Special Category for 2010!)CATS & DOGS #2: REVENGE OF KITTY GALORE
CLASH OF THE TITANS
THE LAST AIRBENDER
NUTCRACKER 3-D
SAW 3-D (aka SAW VII)

This one should go to Clash of the Titans, hands down. My eyes are still watering.

WORST SCREEN COUPLE / WORST SCREEN ENSEMBLEJennifer Aniston & Gerard Butler / THE BOUNTY HUNTERJosh Brolin’s Face & Megan Fox’s Accent / JONAH HEXThe Entire Cast of THE LAST AIRBENDERThe Entire Cast of SEX & THE CITY #2The Entire Cast of TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE

WORST DIRECTORJason Friedberg & Aaron Seltzer / VAMPIRES SUCKMichael Patrick King / SEX & THE CITY #2M. Night Shyamalan / THE LAST AIRBENDERDavid Slade / TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSESylvester Stallone / THE EXPENDABLES

As much as I hate to say this, part of me kinda wants Sly to win this. Both because The Expendables was a massive disappointment and because if he actually showed up for the award it'd be hilarious to watch him slur through the speech.
