Then why is the poster at the beginnin'of the forum?

I don't know. Nia trying to rip-off her "Big Fat Greek Wedding" success by playing the same charactor yet again?

The Four Horsemen of the Moviepocalypse: uncalled for sequels/remakes/reboots, 3-D surcharges, untalented "celebrities", and anything with Michael Bay's name attached to it.

You should've at least nominated MY LIFE IN RUINS.

It wasn't a remake, sequel, rip-off, or prequel of anything.

Given only 5 titles, I'm hoping these nominees will be...

Fast & Furious
The Final Destination
Friday the 13th [remake]
The Pink Panther 2
Saw VI

PS. I must admit... I also thought it was better as Remake or Ripoff and Prequel or Sequel. I can't get my facts straight on why they were reunited for 2008.

RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: We combined them in 2008 to streamline our ceremony, which at an hour fifteen for 2007 was in danger of becoming overlong (kinda like All Those Other Award Shows we exist to make fun of). For 2009, we kept them combined because we have 3 special dis-honors for Worst Actor, Worst Actress and Worst Picture of the Decade and, again, wanted to keep our total show time under 90 minutes...

RAZZIE Dirty Dozen: Battlefield Earth, F G Fingered, Pluto Nash, A Sound of Thunder, Alone in the Dark, Dirty Love, Rise Silver Srfr, Daddy Day Camp, IKWKM, The Love Guru, All About Steve, Airbender

Having said that, I join with the others to split the categories again. There are three reasons for this.

One, we have at least 12 contenders that are prequels/sequels and at least 19 contenders that are remakes/ripoffs, so you have enough to do it. Let me demonstrate:

Prequels/Sequels:
Alvin & The Upchucks
Angels & Demons
Fast & Furious
The Final Destination
Halloween 2
Land of the Lost
Pink Panther 2
Saw VI
Street Figher: The Legend of Chun-Li
Transformers 2
Twilight: The New Moon
Underworld: Rise of the Lycans

Remakes/Ripoffs
A Christmas Carol
Dance Flick (aka the Wayans Brothers Give Selzterberg a Year Off)
Dragonball Evolution
Fame 2009
Friday the 13th 2009
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
GI: Joe
Hannah Montana: The Movie
A Haunting In Connecticut
Knowing
Last House On The Left
Law Abiding Citizen
Obsessed
Old Dogs
Sorority Row
Spread
The Stepfather
Transylmania
Whiteout

Two, you give more movies a chance to get the drumming they deserve.

Three, we have waaayyyy too many prequels/sequels/remakes/rip-offs coming up in 2010. I haven't counted, but there may possibly be enough to split the category into three categories if [HA HA I said "IF"] those movies are bad enough. So, by splitting the category early for 2009, you'll serve notice that for 2010, the Razzie members are paying attention and have their shredders on the ready. We'll be telling the movie industry: "You wanna do prequels/sequels/remakes/rip-offs some more? Hey, we'll be more than happy to oblige. . . ."

Say, why isn't Obessed on here? Wouldn't that qualify as a rip-off of
Fatal Attraction?

He does have a good point right there.

I could be wrong, but I think he was just listing criteria.

Geez, Louise Miguel...just list your choices.

Yeah, seriously! I thought he dropped the tiresome cryptic messages routine.
