Days after the prestigious Golden Globes honoured the best movies of the year, the Razzies have released their list of the worst film releases of 2015 and popular movie Fifty Shades of Grey made it to the top.
The 36th Annual Razzie Awards on Wednesday announced the year's worst achievements in film with steamy romance Fifty Shades of Grey and Adam Sandler's video game adventure Pixels among the top nominees, while Sylvester Stallone was honoured with a redemption.
Golden Globes 2016: The Revenant, The Martian win big
Fifty Shades of Grey, Pixels, sci-fi saga Jupiter Ascending, comedy Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2, all of which landed six nominations, and superhero flick Fantastic 4, which landed five nods, will compete for the Razzies worst picture award.
The erotic film Fifty Shades of Grey has also been nominated for worst actor (Jamie Dornan), worst actress (Dakota Johnson), worst director (Sam Taylor-Johnson), worst screen combo (Dornan and Johnson together), and worst screenplay.
The tongue-in-cheek Razzies, created in 1980, serve as an antidote to Hollywood's prestigious Oscars ceremony, as organizers choose to bestow winners of the year's worst films with a gold spray-painted trophy worth $4.97.
5 best moments from Golden Globes 2016
Stallone, who won his first Golden Globe last week for reprising his iconic role as Rocky Balboa in Creed, is nominated for the Razzie Redeemer Award, going from an "all-time Razzie champ to 2015 award contender."
He will compete for the title with Will Smith, nominated for his redeeming role in Concussion, actor-director Elizabeth Banks for directing the hit Pitch Perfect 2 and horror filmmaker M Night Shyamalan for directing hit horror The Visit after a slew of flops.
Winners of the Razzies are voted for online by around 900 members of the Razzies committee, and anyone can sign up to vote, with memberships starting at $40.
Film of the year – Moor
The "tacky" Razzies ceremony is traditionally held in Hollywood on the night before the Feb 28 Oscars ceremony, and those honoured seldom show up.
Perennial Razzie favourite Sandler, nominated for five consecutive years, this year scored nods for worst actor in Pixels and worst screen combo for 'Adam Sandler & Any Pair of Shoes' for his role in The Cobbler - about a cobbler who can magically step into the shoes of his customers.
Eddie Redmayne, a potential best actor Oscar contender for his role in The Danish Girl, landed a worst actor Razzie nomination for Jupiter Ascending, while Rooney Mara, potential Oscar best actress nominee, landed a worst supporting Razzie nod for her role as Tiger Lily in Pan.
