I think she will, because the movie was not recieved very well and early reviews for Chapter 27 have been bad. Plus the Razzies always nominate people who are in the media all the time. Remember Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were nominated for their performances in "War of the Worlds" and "Batman Begins" in 2005? Both those movies were well liked (especially Batman Begins!!!) so I think Lindsay has a good chance of being nominated this year...

Response from Head RAZZberry: It's a tad early to be predicting, but I'd say Lindsay's chance at being a RAZZIE nominee for her "body of work" this year (including the about-to-open I KNOW WHO KILLED ME and her latest DUI over the past weekend) is fair-to-good. Unlike Those OTHER Awards (aka The Giving Out of the ittle Gold Naked Men) we admit that "zeitgeist" (the public mood towards a celebrity in the year they're nominated) does play a role in our members' voting process...

But can she be nominated for CHAPTER 27 if it wasn't released in the US? That really doesn't make much sense.

Response from Head RAZZberry: Where did I say we were planning to nominate Lohan for CHAPTER 27? You're the one who mentioned it. And you are correct in suggesting that if it isn't theatrically released in the US, it doesn't qualify as a RAZZIE contender...

And now things are even worse for Lohan: She's been arrested in Santa Monica, California on suspicion of drunk driving and cocaine possession, just days after she completed a 45-day rehabilitation program. Now many that are saying that jail might be the only way to save Lohan...but I don't know for sure.

I think this year she'll definitely be nominated for WORST ACTRESS for her performances in "GEORGIA RULE", the awful-looking "I KNOW WHO KILLED ME", and "CHAPTER 27". At least Jane Fonda redeemed herself from that terrible piece of crap that was "MONSTER-IN-LAW"!!!

And of her career starting off so promisingly, you left out "The Parent Trap" which was actually the first film of her career.

No offense HeadRAZZ, but I wasn't the first to mention CHAPTER 27:

Response from Head RAZZberry: I stand semi-corrected. I was simply pointing out that I (as Head RAZZberry) had said nothing about listing CHAPTER 27 as an eligible Lohan title for 2007. With  I KNOW WHO KILLED ME not being screened for critics, I'd say that even if 27 isn't released, Lohan certainly looks like a Worst Actress contender this year...

I know. And as much as I LOVE Lindsay Lohan and the hellish year she's having with her personal life and career, I still have to agree with you 100%. I feel the same way about Mandy Moore (minus the whole sucky personal life thing) for BECAUSE I SAID SO and LICENSE TO WED. But I am happy that Hilary Duff didn't release any movies this year, because ever since A CINDERELLA STORY she's been getting Razzie nominations almost every year. But I do gotta say, Hilary's new movie WAR, INC. looks really good (LINK).

This movie was just plain weird. It wanted to be funny but serious at the same time and it failed miserably IMO.

Ok, I finish watching this movie and I don't get all the hate. The ONLY main problem in the movie is that it was being dramatic and funny at the wrong places because there's a serious scene and then the next one turns into a comedy, which confuses you.

Should a movie really get a bad rating for that because I remember Independence Day having the same thing, especially wanting us to feel sad for the people while Will Smith works out his comedy in another scene and that wasn't recieved as bad as Georgia Rule, which I gave a decent rating (2.5/4). It's not as bad as people said it was, just because it has mixed tones... 

Response from Head RAZZberry: Okay, moviewizguy, here's my main question for you: Is ANY movie "as bad as they say it is"??  Of the more than 180 postings you've added to this Forum, about 97.8% of them are in defense some mediocre movie or other that bombed with both critics and the movie-going public. If you honestly believe that most of what Hollywood puts out there for our so-called amusement is "not as bad as they say it is," why do you seem to have ambitions of becoming a movie critic??  Your tone sounds to me more appropriate for someone who aspires to replace the late Jack Valenti as the Goodwill Ambassador (i. e. apologist) for the movie biz, rather than someone with valid, critical commentary to impart...

I'm actually with moviewizguy on this one. It really wasn't that terrible of a movie, but you already know my defense for "Georgia Rule".

And all this time, I thought he was trying to be the Paula Abdul of movie critics. . . .

Ever see the movie What's So Bad About Feeling Good?  I think he has the virus. . . .

I don't want to be a movie critic! Who ever said I was going to be one! I certainly, positively don't want to be a movie critic. People are calling this movie one of the worst movies ever. I don't get it. It was mediocre. It wasn't bad because the mixed tones.

"Delta Farce", "Lady In The Water", "Perfect Stranger", "Showgirls", and "Waterworld", weren't as bad as the critics said they were, but they were still bad. Just because a movie is better than what the critics said, doesn't make it a good movie.

Well, that's not what I meant. Sure, there are some bad movies that weren't bad as critics say they were. That's when I mention it. But if I don't mention the movie was bad, it's because the movie was actually good, which goes for Georgia Rule and Lady in the Water, which was one of the best films in 2006! People must be smokin' crack because Lady in the Water was FANTASTIC!!!!
