Who crashed and burned at the Razzies in 2012?
Everything Sandler touched this year has turned into a Razzie nod.
Seeing the Razzies list on the website made our hearts soar! Almost every film we hated, every actor we despised and every director whose common sense we doubted was nominated for a Razzie this year. It made us realise that there are still specks of sanity flying around in this world. After all, if there weren’t overly critical haters like us, would the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation, which celebrates the worst that Hollywood has to offer every year, exist?
Having seen at least trillion high brow awards this year including the Oscars this Sunday, the Razzies are probably the best way to conclude the very useless award season. The event which is taking place rightfully on April Fool’s Day has our fingers crossed for Adam Sandler. Even if we don’t cross our fingers, he’ll win any way — he has 11 nominations. When it comes to films, leading the pack of all things roadkill is teen favourite The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn which has scored itself a worst nomination for practically everything.
