Looks like Headrazz decided to do Bullet to the Head anyways, according to the List of 2013 films. 


RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: Actually, early reviews on BULLET TO THE HEAD (much like those for Ah-Nuld's recent B.O. bomb LAST STAND) have been surprisingly positive (R.T. LINK), so I was maybe going to do an Official Forum for HAUNTING IN CONNECTICUT 2 later this week...but you "jumped the gun" and already posted a Member Started Forum on it. While the concept and title of HAUNTING 2 certainly seem lame, I would strongly suggest waiting 'till at least a handful of reviews are in before setting up any future Member-Started Forum discussions...




Elizabeth Hartman and Judith Barsi are much more talented and beautiful than Scarlett Johansson and Chloe Grace Moretz. Fact.

The month of January gave us 8 Razzie prospects.  Let's see what February has to offer: 

Warm Bodies - If this film stays on the Fresh side of the Tomatometer, then it won't be a Razzie prospect.  It might not be one anyway since the only familiar names in it are Rob Corddry and John Malkovich. 

Bullet to the Head - Sylvester Stallone's last Razzie win came in 2004 for his role in "Spy Kids 3D: Game Over."  His last nomination was in 2011 for his direction of "The Expendables."  Will he be nominated for this or will he escape Razzie-free? 

Identity Thief - This comedy stars Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy and is directed by Seth Gordon.  Multiple Razzie nominee Jon Favreau is also in it.  

Side Effects - This film stars Oscar winner Catherine Zeta-Jones, Oscar nominees Rooney Mara and Jude Law, and Channing Tatum (he could be a Razzie prospect for a later film).  It's directed by Oscar winning director Steven Soderbergh.  If it stays on the Fresh side of the Tomatometer, then it won't be a Razzie prospect.

A Good Day to Die Hard - The films in this series haven't disappointed...yet.  But typing that sentence might have just jinxed this 5th film.  

Beautiful Creatures - This fantasy film looks like something the CW would air.  It stars two leads I don't recognize and could receive supporting role Razzie nods for Emma Thompson, Viola Davis, Emmy Rossum, and Jeremy Irons.  

Safe Haven - Still blind to the fact that Nicholas Sparks novel adaptations don't bring quality entertainment to the big screen, Relativity Media is releasing another one.  Julianne Hough and Josh Duhamel play the leads and Lasse Hallstrom, who directed another Sparks novel adaptation, is directing.

Escape from Planet Earth - Animated films usually do real good, but this one doesn't look good at all.  Razzie winners Jessica Alba and Sarah Jessica Parker are among the voice actors.

Snitch - Like Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne Johnson also has a Razzie campaign in multiple parts this year.  Razzie winner Barry Pepper and Razzie nominee Susan Sarandon also appear in this movie.

Dark Skies - I don't recognize any of the names in the cast, but I do recognize director/writer Scott Stewart, who was also responsible for "Legion" and "Priest."  Keep an eye on this one.

There's going to be a movie adaptation of ENTOURAGE. I haven't seen the final season yet, but I have the feeling that there's no need for a movie. And because it was an HBO show, I've read several comments about it following the steps of SEX AND THE CITY.

Also, the new releases here are FLIGHT and PARENTAL GUIDANCE. What should I do?

Okay, so I think it's pretty obvious that our next Worst of the Weak  title should be: Identity Thief -- and before anyone says anything otherwise, I have two words for you: Craig Mazin

He's the main writer of the film. What has he written before, you may ask? Scary Movie's 3 and 4, Superhero Movie, and The Hangover Part II. Oh, and did I mention he's writing The Hangover Part III as well?

If that doesn't make it obvious, I don't know what does!

Turns out that BULLET TO THE HEAD is weaker than early reviews suggested, but it's still out of "Razzies range." Meanwhile, STAND UP GUYS is bad, and WARM BODIES may be 2013's equivalent of 21 JUMP STREET.

I was actually thinking about it, and I think we should go by date releases. You see, the director is Seth Gordon. 4 CHRISTMASES was released in December, a time of year when most Comedies suck. HORRIBLE BOSSES was released in the Summer, where Comedies have a better chance than in other seasons. His new movie is a Comedy released in February. I'd say it has 1/10 of a chance to be good.

Again, I'm going by dates. Despite being talented, Jason Bateman is a hit-or-miss when it comes to picking projects. As for Melissa McCarthy, there's a rumored curse on the cast of BRIDESMAIDS: most of them have followed up with bad movies.

Final Razzie ballots have been released, so get ready to vote.

EDIT: Small note to HeadRazz, you forgot to point out the a number of people, Sandler included, did uncredited rewrites of That's My Boy. It says so on the IMDb trivia for the movie.

So, this is pretty much a three way race between Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2, That's My Boy, and Battleship. Do you guys agree?   


RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: Sorry, Oiram, but I thought everyone knew that the "trivia notes" at IMDb are hardly an acceptable source of accurate information. If Sandler had contributed substantially to re-writes of THAT'S MY BOY, you can bet he would've had his agent/manager insist on a screenplay credit. As with all awards, we go with the credits that actually appear on-screen...

We should still keep an eye on the other releases, aside from IDENTITY THIEF. There's SIDE EFFECTS, starring BROKEN CITY's Catherine Zeta-Jones and Razzie Repeat Offender Channing Tatum (who's usually bad in serious roles), and, THE SORCERER AND THE WHITE SNAKE, starring Razzie Repeat Offender Jet Li.

By the way, this week TOP GUN is being re-released in 3-D and IMAX. In case you've never seen it and want to use this opportunity to...I say don't! TOP GUN currently ranks #57 (out of 68) on my All-Time Worst list -- right between QUEEN OF THE DAMNED (which I saw yesterday) and HOUSE OF THE DEAD.

Finally, Ben Affleck won the DGA Award. Seriously, this is going to be the best Oscar ceremony ever!

So you hate Steven Soderbergh?

LOL
Actually, I've disliked a lot of his movies. But that's another thing, because I just was listing the new releases. In any case, it's not like he has never made a bad movie.

No. The thing is that, since late 2011, the activity on the forums has decreased a lot. The users are still a part of this, and I think they still constantly read the posts. I'm sure of this because they do write at least once a week.

Why has this happened? I don't know. Going back to old threads, I noticed that the regulars always posted at least once on the Worst New Movie. Maybe 2011 was the year with the most fights and users leaving?

Sly's Bullet to the Head flopped -- even more so than Schwarzeneggar's Last Stand!

Steven Soderbergh didn't turned out any bad movies last year, so Side Effects might just dodge Razzie consideration. We also haven't really had any foreign films recently in contention for Razzies, so I don't think The Sorcerer and the White Snake will get a forum, even though Jet Li is a Razzie Repeat Offender.
 
Also, please check the bottom of my signature for when final voting for my awards start.

I just read that DRIVING MISS DAISY won Best Picture without being nominated for Best Director. I didn't know that was even possible. So ARGO could win the top Oscar?

By the way, WRECK-IT RALPH won Best Feature at the Annie Awards.

What do you guys think? Will it get good reviews like the last one shockingly did?
