Razzie Nominations: The Last Airbender and Twilight: Eclipse Lead With 9 Nominations

Here is what Moviefone has to say about the Razzi Nominations this year.

I’m cynical and sarcastic enough to get behind a tongue-in-cheek “worst of the year” awards presentation, but there’s never much amusement to be found in the annualRazzie nominations. Their picks seem to be either A) high-profile “fish in a barrel” nominees, or B) a bunch of movies / movie stars that are bad, sure, but are mainly popular enough to generate some fan-based outrage — and therefore more attention for the Razzies as a whole.

For example, as goofy as the ‘Twilight’ films are, they’re nowhere near as wretched as, say, ‘Jonah Hex,’ but “Twilight Razzie” will get 10 times the traffic as “Jonah Hex Razzie.” Then they nominate the same flicks 11 times. And yet here we are, sharing their goofy nominations with you anyway. (My own commentary, as a massive expert on terrible films, will follow in italics)

Worst Picture
‘The Bounty Hunter‘
‘The Last Airbender‘
‘Sex and the City 2‘
‘Twilight Saga: Eclipse‘

Head over to Moviefone to see all the nominations.
