UPDATE from Head RAZZberry: With Memorial Day weekend (and the official "kickoff" of 2013's Summer Movie Season) upon us, here's the LINK to read the L.A. Times' Movie Projector column, predicting which mega-budget sequel is likelier to win this week's Big Box Office Showdown between HANGOVER III (Our Worst of the Weak pick) and FAST & FURIOUS 6... 

Hint: They're picking the franchise with more titles, better reviews (and more enthusiastic word-of-mouth)...

Well, I know that this is a little off topic, but does anyone think Amanda Bynes got conked on the head or something, because WOW!!!

She might not be Lohan levels yet, but is closing in pretty fast.]]> Fri, 24 May 2013 07:01:29 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6066&PID=54616#54616 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6066&PID=54615#54615 Author: Vits

Actually, according to Vin Diesel, F&F PART 6 is more than that.]]> Thu, 23 May 2013 19:13:24 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6066&PID=54615#54615 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6178&PID=54614#54614 Author: Vits

I never saw it. I saw one or two of the sequels when I was younger. Now, I don't really want to because I'm one of those who feel the need of watching entire franchises. So, I'd have to watch the 10 films, the remake, and FREDDY VS JASON, which would make me feel obligated to watch the 7 NIGHTMARE films and the remake.

Anyway, keep in mind that there were very few voters in the 1st Razzie ceremony. I'm sure HeadRAZZ and his friends didn't like watching a HALLOWEEN rip-off during the craze of slasher flicks.

McCarthy has less than 10 minutes of screen time and she's one of the funnier parts of the film.]]> Thu, 23 May 2013 18:42:20 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6173&PID=54613#54613 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6173&PID=54612#54612 Author: oiram

How long was Melissa McCarthy in it?

Originally posted by SchumacherH8ter I don't personally see it as a Worst Picture contender (for me, movies that get a D+ or lower are Worst Picture contenders), but I could see a less forgiving person wanting it to be a Worst Picture contender.

I have been a long time fan of the Razzie Awards. So much so, I love to look back on previous nominees and "Winners" whether it be last year or the very 1st Razzie Awards. Of course, the first film to ever be given the dishonor of Worst Picture was "Can't Stop the Music". I haven't seen the film and quite frankly I don't want to .

However, when looking through the other nominees for the first Razzie awards, I did see a movie that I do love and own on DVD. That film is the first and original "Friday the 13th" (1980). It got nominated not only for Worst Picture but nominated for Worst Supporting Actress (Betsy Palmer). At first, I tried to rationalize it and mainly forget it was even nominated (it was 33 years ago after all). But at the same time, the fan in me was still a little shocked. Looking back at it now, I feel stupid for even not looking at the many mistakes in the first "Friday the 13th". So... here goes nothing.

I recently re watched the first film, and I noticed that the acting was SO LAME. Granted, for a lot of these kids back then it was their first film but I must mention we never really see them in other projects after the movie. In fact, the only person to get a film career after this movie was Kevin Bacon.

Another flaw... the film is supposed to be 95 minutes long but it does feel like a full 2 hour movie. Why? After the first two kills at the beginning of the film, it takes a REALLY LONG TIME for something to happen. Yes, we do have to introduce the characters and have the story develop but it doesn't take what it feels like.. 30 minutes. Even when we get to the next kill, we have to wait another 20 minutes for the movie to actually start getting good.

Finally, a flaw that came to me by actually watching the "Behind the Scenes" feature on the DVD of the film. I believe one of the Producers or screen writers of the film talked about the idea behind the "Friday the 13th" movie. Well he and his buddy had just seen "Halloween" and said since it was making a lot of money they should "Rip it off". What a stupid thing to say! I knew the movie was a rip off of Halloween but why in the world would a guy who made the film even admit that to other people? I lost my respect for the film a little bit because of that statement.

So, I will close this topic with this thought. I still love Friday the 13th Part 1 and Part 2 (the series kind of goes down hill from there). However, I do see why the film got nominated for Worst Picture. So leave your thoughts down below. DO you think I am over thinking this? Do you like the 1st Friday the 13th movie too?

This might be a long shot, but do you think it could also be up for Worst Picture? ]]> Thu, 23 May 2013 16:01:08 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6173&PID=54609#54609
