Actually, there is a thread for Failure to Launch: www.razzies.com/forum/forum_topics.asp?FID=96

But I agree, once Talladega Nights got good reviews from critics it should have been case closed on this thread but instead it got comments like this:

Originally posted by ITbeast RAZZ; Just a suggestion, but in light of the reviews it is looking like Barnyard is going to be the crowned Chump this weekend and Ricky Bobby may get away with just below or slightly above fresh levels at Rotten Tomatoes (Barnyard 29% and Ricky Bobby 66%). Maybe we can have the Main Razzie page read for "Barnyard" #1 worst pick of the week and "Ricky" #2. This is only a suggestion.

Just because a movie looks like a movie will be bad doesn't mean that we should go on saying that it will be bad even if the critics disagree. I was very skeptical about this movie when I saw the preview but when I actually saw the movie I was pleasantly surpised.  

this was such a waste of 4 $,i can't believe i rented this crap- horrible horrible

Just watched this movie, and though it was totally dumb, there were some really funny parts. I think it's still a Razzie contender, no doubt about that. Hey, have any of you guys watched the UNRATED version of this movie? That version is even worse than the original. I always think that about movies released on DVD in an UNRATED version before the theatrical version even comes out.

Will Ferrell can be pretty funny at times, but there are other times when he can just be pretty annoying...

As much as I wanted to believe that Will Ferrell would be making some fantastic comedies, unfortunately, I have been completely disapointed.


Talledega Nights, was the straw that broke the camel's back. Enough! Go back to SNL, or wherever that Tim Kazarinski went and go quickly.

Will Ferrell is not going to be the next Bill Murray, Chevy Chase, Dan Ackroyd, John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Mike Meyers, Dana Carvey or even Eddie Murphy for that matter. He's not even in the class of Joe Piscopo.

Whereever Mary Gross went is where he belongs....off to unfunny land.

After seeing "Nacho" At the markdown I wish I had seen "Ricky Bobby"; at least I would not have gone home with my tail between my legs!

Actually, this was quite good. It did what it was supposed to do, and the audience, mostly critics who panned it, were laughing like hyenas the entire length of the film.

The worst film of the Week is "Barnyard" which is about...LESIBIAN COWS!!!! Yes, LESBIAN COWS!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARG!

Response from Head Raspberry: Yes, BARNYARD does look Berry Bad -- almost awful enough to make us consider a special RAZZIE category for Worst Family Film -- I'm just not sure even our Members will bother to see the truly stinky contenders for it...

Speaking of Will, I flipped open my Entertainment Weekly today and found this little tidbit, aimed at him and the stars of two other RAZZIE-worthy movies...

(Coincidentally, this little stub was right next to an article concerning a fourth Rambo movie, which, in my opinion, may also deserve a RAZZIE...)

And on that note, the fact they made the film's villain a Frenchman smacks of ethnic insensitivity, no matter how you try and rationalize it. 

Response from head RAZZberry: And don't forget, it's also part of the "joke" that the "Bad Guy" is a "flaming gay" stereotype...Will Ferrell, self-less comic genius, just doing his part to help us all "get along"... 

YOU KNOW YOU'RE IN TROUBLE WHEN YOUR BEST "JOKE" INVOLVES WILL FERRELL RUNNING AROUND in HIS UNDERWEAR (NOT ACTUALLY on FIRE) SCREAMING "I'M on FIRE -- HELP ME JESUS, HELP ME TOM CRUISE!"

...And that "JOKE" is in EVERY Trailer, TV Spot and Promo for this film...

HMMMM...What might that mean...??
