Gibson, Depp Among This Year’s Razzie Nominees And Yeah, That Checks Out
Meanwhile the new Transformers movie scored nine nominations.
What if the Oscars… but bad? That’s the idea behind the Golden Raspberries, aka The Razzies, which celebrate the very worst that Hollywood has to offer. As is tradition, the fake awards show unveiled their list of nominees this morning, one day before the Oscars nominations are announced. And yep, there are some real stinkers in there.
Leading the pack is Transformers: The Last Knight with nine nominations, including Worst Picture, Worst Director (Michael Bay), Worst Actor (Mark Wahlberg) and Worst Supporting Actor (Josh Duhamel and Anthony Hopkins).
Nipping at its heels is Fifty Shades Darker, which got eight noms including Worst Picture, Worst Actress (Dakota Johnson), Worst Actor (Jamie Dornan) and Worst Screen Combo (Any Combination of Two Characters, Two Sex Toys or Two Sexual Positions).
Other notable nominees include Tom Cruise and Johnny Depp for Worst Actor in The Mummy and Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, Russell Crowe and Mel Gibson for Worst Supporting Actor in The Mummy and Daddy’s Home 2, and Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Watson for Worst Actress in mother! and The Circle.
Rounding out the Worst Picture nominations are The Mummy, Baywatch and The Emoji Movie.
The “winners” of the Golden Raspberry Awards will be announced on March 3. For the full list of nominees, go here.
