Member Discussion of 2013 LIST...

Originally posted by Vits I was surprised with tickets to LES MIS. I'll see it later.

And since I'll be too busy, here are my predictions for this year's Razzies:

Now, some say since Twilight Breaking Dawn 2 is nominated in every category, it will do what Jack and Jill did last year. However, I would like to point out that Showgirls was nominated for every category in 1995 Razzies, and while it did win a lot, it did not win every category. So, it is possible that Twilight is not getting all awards.

So on to predictions:

First, Worst Screen Ensemble:

I feel that it is truly a fight between Twilight and That's My Boy. That's My Boy's cast did the more embarrassing work, but I feel that since this is the last time alot of them will be nominasted, at least for a good while, it is going to be:

Next, Worst Screen Couple:

I know many hate the Jersey Shore. I do too, but I have a feeling that the cast members only got a nomination just to show that we really dislike them. I mean, look back at last year; any other time, Palin probably would have won, but at least she can say "I'm not as horrible as Adam Sandler in drag". This comes down really to the Twilight picks. While the couple of Edward and Bella has been bashed over these long years, the recent development of Jacob and Renesmee striked high controversy because it indicated strong pedophilic overtones. Add the fact that people have decided that Taylor is a much worse actor than Robert, and you get:

Now on to Worst Prequel, Remake, Rip-off, or Sequel:

Two years ago, Sex and the City 2 won this title over Worst Picture winner, The Last Airbender. The year before that, Land of the Lost won over Worst Picture winner Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Going back to Showgirls even; that lost to The Scarlet Letter. Why does this keep happening? I have a feeling that maybe to some, this category is sometimes a consulation prize for those that were close, but didn't win Worst Picture. Not always true, mind you, but sometimes it is. So I'm just going to say it right now, I have my doubts that this last Twilight movie will win Worst Picture, but I have a feeling that people want to win some form of it, so:

On to Worst Screenplay:

There are quite a few worthy nominees here, however, breaking it down, something truly horrible is something that is... bland. It is just bleh, and does the least amount to give us anything new. Worst than that is a screenplay that not only makes the characters bland, but just downright unlikeable, in their bland motives. What makes it even worse is that the screenwriters here previously did a movie that was fun, pretty original at some points, and the characters were likeable. The fact that they could not do this again makes me question how good at writing they really are. Then again, the last thing they wrote had characters to work off of in the first place. So, my prediction for Worst Screenplay is:

Now to Worst Director:

I feel that this is much like Worst Screenplay this year. This director has made good, enjoyable movies. You would think that he could have brought something to the table in order to make this less of a chore to sit through. Because he failed, I feel that he deserves this spray painted gold this time around. My prediction for Worst Director is:

Worst Supporting Actress:

Singers acting in movies is nothing new, but the fact that there are so many bad at acting, makes you wonder why this practice did not become obsolete. Of course, I am talking about Jennifer Lopez and Rihanna, both of whom starred in movies that were made from a characterless self-help book and a characterless boardgame. Now, Lopez didn't star bad movies only, but she's been in so many bad ones that you wonder how she is still getting acting jobs. However, she still has to compete with fresh blood, and while it is pretty sympathetic fresh blood (for reasons I will not get into), it is still fresh blood who was pretty unconvincing, and some what laughable, in her first time acting. So, my prediction is:

Worst Supporting Actor:

You might think that the easy route is to pick the guys that played themselves in a movie, like Hasselhoff or Ice. However, considering the bad buzz this character has been receiving recently, add to the fact that people believe the man is not improving as an actor in anyway, this shirtless pedo wolf seems like the more obvious choice:

Worst Actress:

Jovovich and Streisand are just their out of hate, and are not really their to win. While Perry seems like the choice for some, considering how many times he has been nominated, I have the gut feeling that he will sadly not be walking away with any awards at this time. No, this award is more of a cat fight in Jello bewteen Stewart and Heigl. Stewart has gotten alot of flak for the Bella character, and some might say it was just ecause of the character. Now, she's been getting flak for being herself. She seems to be just as bland as the Bella character, and she got steamy with a first time director, who is/was married to boot! You might say that real life does not factor into winning, but do I need to bring up OJ Simpson again? I wish Heigl could win, but maybe this nomination is just to make up for the fact that she should have been nominated years back. Sorry to say, but it looks like the winner is:

Worst Actor:

This category is a gladiator battle between Cage, Perry, Sandler, and Murphy. Pattinson has been starting to work his way up, so it seems like he should be safe, but maybe not. Again, this race is so tight that Perry will not win, and Cage, despite this probably being his last eligible time, does not seem to have the drive to win now. And as much as Murphy has been going through such a career nosedive, there is still the fact that he was not in the movie that won last year, and sometimes, one actor or actress from that movie still gets the venom from the haters, so the winner is:

Worst Picture:

As Jed Clampett would say "Whew doggie!" I mean, it seems like a pretty tight race between Battleship, That's My Boy, and Twilight. A Thousand Words was bad, but maybe it would won Worst Picture if lesser bad movies were released, and Oogielocves just got unlucky. As tight of a race it is, I think people recognize that Twilight is stupid, but it is still not bad enough to win. That's My Boy, as repugnant and unfunny as it is, at least can say it was not based on a characterless and alienless boardgame. Yeah, I think you know what my prediction is:

What do you guys think?
