While "Grown ups" only got nominated for Worst Supporting Actor (Rob Schinder) the sequel looks worse than the first. Comedy that is over the top like in Grown Ups or Jack and Jill is really idiotic and stupid. I don't even want to imagine what "Candyland" will be like .]]> Tue, 14 May 2013 10:25:32 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3551&PID=54471#54471 DISCUSSION of 2008 RAZZIEŽ "WINNERS" : He doesn't see the difference... http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3551&PID=54470#54470 Author: Vits

He doesn't see the difference between them. When JACK & JILL and THAT'S MY BOY underperformed at the box office, I was like "Great! Now he'll understand!". But he still won some public voting awards for them. He still thinks his movies are what the people wants.]]> Tue, 14 May 2013 09:49:50 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3551&PID=54470#54470 DISCUSSION of 2008 RAZZIEŽ "WINNERS" : Well what I meant is those three... http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3551&PID=54466#54466 Author: moviecritic1994

I still don't really understand why Adam Sandler even has a career after two horribly made films. Granted, I thought Just Go With It was okay, I didn't like it or love it but it was okay. However, the additions of "Jack and Jill" "Bucky Larson, Born to be a Star" and "That's my Boy" seemed like nails to his career coffin. However, he's going to be in "Grown ups 2" and possibly a Candy land film. ]]> Mon, 13 May 2013 21:50:20 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3551&PID=54449#54449 DISCUSSION of 2008 RAZZIEŽ "WINNERS" : Originally posted by moviecritic1994"The... http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3551&PID=54432#54432 Author: Vits

Are you sure? I mean, around 2003 and 2004, she started to appear in a movie per year. THE HOTTIE & THE NOTTIE and REPO! were her last theatrical releases. Since then, she's been producing a bunch of reality shows. But my point is that she was kind of "big" at one time.

You're right. When it came out, it became official than him, Eddie Murphy and Cameron Diaz needed the SHREK franchise, because their live-action movies weren't very good.

Even though he was included in the Best Ensemble awards the film won, it was an extended cameo that doesn't proof he can have his career back.

Surprisingly, I will not talk about Indy and the crystal skull. But I will give my overall thought about the 29th Annual Razzie Awards.

At first, I was kind of surprised (but not really) that "The Love Guru" won Worst Picture and Worst Screenplay. I actually thought "The Hottie and The Nottie" was far worse. But then I really started to think about it. "The Hottie and the Nottie" really didn't affect Paris Hilton's career at all. She is still an heiress that is selfish, egotistical and mostly we haven't really seen her in awhile in film or on the tabloids as of late. But "The Love Guru" was different in two ways. First a lot more people saw this film than "The Hottie and the Nottie". So a lot more people knew how bad it really was. Also, I hate to say it but "The Love Guru" was the film that pretty much killed Mike Myer's career. Besides that film and the final Shrek installment, we haven't seen him in film. There are rumors he might be in a possible 4th Austin Powers film, but again those are just rumors. So yeah, I fully agree with "The Love Guru" winning the 3 Razzie Awards it got. ]]> Sun, 12 May 2013 21:31:26 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3551&PID=54410#54410 DISCUSSION of 2008 RAZZIEŽ "WINNERS" : 2008.

2008. The only 00-Agent to act consecutively with James Bond instead of concurrently was Agent 008. Starting in Goldfinger, if Bond weren't to report into MI6, Agent 008 would replace him. Here's my take on the Year of the Successor to Bond:

Films that should've been RAZZed, but didn't: 4
Strange Wilderness
Superhero Movie
Babylon AD
Bangkok Dangerous
 
Films that got RAZZed, but shouldn't have: 3
The Wackness
Mamma Mia!
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull //I call it the "Predecessor's Shadow Parameter". If a film has decent reviews and would block out far worse films from getting RAZZed, it can still get nominated for Worst PSRR just for being in the shadow of its predecessor.
 
Films that got RAZZed to the wrong degree: 0
 
Worst Trends/Events of 2008:
V. Long-dormant franchises revived into empty shells of sequels (Ex. Crystal Skull, Rambo IV. Not that they should've been nominated or, in the case of Crystal Skull, deserved to be, but it's been happening a lot since 2008. They haven't had a new installment since the 80's or thereabout, and over 2 decades later, they get some of the most un-asked-for sequels ever!)
IV. Pierce and Paris pierce our ears with their singing (Repo! The Genetic Opera and Mamma Mia!)
III. Bollywood comes to America, and Mike Myers ruins it all (The Love Guru was FAR more offensive to India than Slumdog Millionaire, and that's saying a lot, because Slumdog made India look like a total ****hole!)
II. Seltzer and Friedberg, we've had enough of your F****** B*******!!! (The only year so far in which Seltzerberg struck twice, and even we were complaining!)
I. A German Ed Wood leads the spike in video game films (In the Name of the King, Postal, 1968 Tunnel Rats, Max Payne. More video game movies than any other year, and it'll be pretty tough to exceed, even with how bad Hollywood's gotten this millennium.)

Critics and audiences only liked "Indy 4" because it was a throw back to their childhoods, but once the childhood memories pass, you realize the movies sucks compared to the original 3. I don't care if people don't like that choice, but it was the right choice because the movie was a big let down. Take a note from How It Should Have Ended:

Now you are assuming the number of critics paid off... and assuming they were paid off at all.

I'm not a fan of his. I actually think he takes the artistic value away every time he so-called "fixes" a movie.

I would agree with you if there was a concensus on whether the Worst Remake/Sequel category is for movies that could have been good, but still disappointed compared to the original. But a lot of people vote based on simply bad movies that just happened to have adapted scripts.

Seltzerberg wouldn't have been a better choice, if you ask me. Their intent is to create the worst movie possible by ripping off everything from pop culture.
