I've got some ideas for categories.

Worst Use of Special Effects: Pretty much any scene in Son of the Mask

Most Awkward Pace: The Brothers Grimm. How many times can they use the same moving tree scene?

Worst Breakthrough Performance: I would say Skandar Keynes for Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, but unfortunately he sucked in Ferrari two years earlier.

Creepiest "Innocent" Scene: Lucy meets Mr Tumnus in Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.

Most Blatant Plothole: Yoda and dozens of Jedi being able to sense fear but not being able to sense a massive conspiracy involving thousands of stormtroopers and one corrupt senator in Star Wars: Episode III.

Worst Plot Device or Cliche: Kirsten Prout being The Chosen One in Elektra

Worst Use of the Wilhelm Scream: Cop getting thrown out of the car in Sin City

STALL OF SHAME AWARD
This will be a retro award for those movies deserving of the RAZZIE...

WHO KNOWS??? Films like THE HORN BLOWS AT MIDNIGHT...BONZO GOES TO COLLEGE...PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE could have their honor as being the first ones included...

I know Eegah is in the Razzie guide. Yeah they should have an honorary retroactive award for others.

well, there's no possibility to nominate CURIOUS GEORGE for Worst Animated Feature. So, we'll have to wait to find one that will be.

Well, it looks like DOOGAL will be most likely the first 2006 animated film that will get a Worst Animated Feature nomination. It's not getting any good reviews.

Bill Maher's show new DVD New Rules offers a suggestion most Razzie members could agree with: Every year when they hand out Oscars, they should also take one back!! I think we should start with...Kevin Costner!

I do believe the first recipient of the award was Ronald Reagan...

Response from Head RAZZberry: The Award is called Worst Career Achievement, and was indeed first given to "Retired Movie Star Ronald Reagan" at our third annual ceremonies. Here's a LINK to check out other Worst Career recipients / dis-honorees...

I support the idea of a Worst Animated Film.  BTW, all animated films except Howl's Moving Castle were CGI, weren't they?

The other suggestion is to split Worst Remake or Sequel into 2 separate categories.  There are so many remakes and sequels, including especially bad ones, that deserve Razzie attention.

Response from Head RAZZberry: Actually, we were already thinking of splitting off Sequel and Remake into their own "Worst" categories this year for the berry reason you mention: Seems like every other movie in 2006 was either a sequel, a remake or a blatant rip-off of something done before (and done beeter)...

How about a Worst Career Achievement Award for Jack Benny???

Sure there were a few gems ("To Be Or Not To Be" "George Washington Slept Here" and "Charley's Aunt") there were bombs (such as "The Horn Blows At Midnight") that are more than worthy for the award to be given to him...posthumously of course...

I know Sylvester Stallone is one deserving of the award...but there are others... Madonna...Jack Benny...Ed Wood...that may be slightly overlooked...at least this year...

I would be inclined to lobby to keep Jack Benny's name off any Razzie list. His limited appearances in motion pictures is a mixed bag, but as a career body of work as an entertainer, the man casts a very long shadow. Ditto his best friend, George Burns. There are few, if any contemporary entertainers in their league.

I would toss in as a side note that one of the very memorable evenings I've ever spent at a live performance was the late Frank Gorshin's one man show, Say Goodnight Gracie. Gorshin could do Burns dead on, and the program noted that he would arrive at the show about 10 minutes before curtain, pat on a little pancake makeup and don the inevitable black glasses, and walk out on stage as George Burns. It was an incredible show.

I have one of those wonderful pictures taken at the old Movieland Wax Museum in Buena Park with me next to the great wax likeness of George Burns. Alas, that museum shuddered its doors about a year ago and has taken it's place in history alongside the dodo bird, polite civil discourse and entertainment giants like Burns and Benny.

Even though the other bad movie award, The Stinkers, are inferior to us, they have several original categories I think that we should use. They include:

Most Painfully Unfunny Comedy (bad comedies are my pet peeve)

Worst Fake Accent (I hate bad fake accents)

Worst Family-Unfriendly Film, I 'd like to recommend as a pseudo-permanent category, since there's not go to be any shortage of them in the next decade or so.  This can be delineated from worst Animated Film. 

 

Also to keep it in the too-vague-for-them-to-retaliate zone Worst Hollywood Bureaucrat, to be given away anonymously to the person holding VP, COO, or similar titles at the studio where the majority of the bad films we get to look over come from.  His or here name need not even be brought up for privacy, and we'll still be striking terror at the heart of the industry
