Razzie Shortlist Reveals New Category: ‘Worst Eye-Gouging Misuse Of 3D’
As the movie industry evolves, so to do theRazzies. The anti-Oscars, which infamously recognize the worst movies of the year, have announced their short list of eligible films which includes a brand new category: Worst Eye-Gouging Misuse of 3D. What films are eligible for that award as well as Worst Film of the Year and more? Find out after the jump. Actual nominations will be announced January 24, the day before Oscar nominations.
As if you need another piece of proof that the Golden Globes are a joke, one of their Best Picture nominees leads the pack of eligibility.Burlesqueis eligible for worst screenplay, worst director, worst supporting actor for Cam Gigandet, worst supporting actress for both Kristen Bell and Cher and worst actress for Christina Aguilera.
Oddly enough, though,Burlesqueis NOT eligible for Worst Picture. Those dubious distinctions go toThe Bounty Hunter Clash of the Titans, The Expendables, Grown Ups, Jonah Hex, Killers, The Last Airbender, Little Fockers, Sex and the City 2, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Vampires SuckandYogi Bear.
In the Worst Eye-Gouging Misuse of 3D category, the eligible nominees include, but are apparently not limited too,Piranha 3D, The Nutcracker in 3DandResident Evil: Afterlife.
Among the eligible actors and actresses areJessica Albafor her whole year:The Killer Inside Me, Little Fockers, MacheteandValentine’s Dayas well asEmily BluntforGullivers TravelsandThe Wolfman.George Lopezhad quite the year too withMarmaduke, The Spy Next DoorandValentine’s DaywhileMickey Rourkeis also eligible forThe ExpendablesandIron Man 2.
And in another Golden Globe faux-pas,Angelina Jolieis eligible for Worst Actress forThe Touristeven though she got a Best Actress nod from the Globes.
It’s a sad day when the Razzies are more accurate as an award show than the nationally televised Golden Globes.
Also, we realize this is just a sampling of the eligible films and actors. As far as we can tell, all the news outlets are only reporting a portion of the eligible names instead of the full list. When we find the full list, we’ll post it here.Clash of the TitansandThe Last Airbenderhave to be eligible for the 3D award, no?
