2016 Razzie Awards: ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ Tops the List
Hollywood is just one day away from announcing the Oscar contenders, and now the Razzies have announced their own candidates for worst pictures, actors, actresses and others. Leading the list of nominations is a four-way tie.
According to People, the list of categories for this highly embarrassing ceremony has been ushered in throughout the past with candidates expressing certain forms of humility for the awards they received. Halle Berry got one for her performance in "Catwoman," and she accepted it with comical humility, still landing excellent roles after the award and turning out some great performances.
This year the four films that lead the nominations with the most categories nominated are "Fifty Shades of Grey," "Pixels," "Jupiter Ascending" and "Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2."
According to E! News, all four were in the "Worst Picture" category with other categories including Worst Actor, Worst Actress, Worst Supporting Actor, etc.
Kevin James just so happened to get two of his films on the list, although they had a modest box-office return. He starred in "Paul Blart" and "Pixels," alongside Adam Sandler.
In the worst picture category, the top of the list was "Fantastic Four," which seems to be a doomed franchise considering the modest box-office hauls of the recent reboot and the previous films in the franchise from Marvel Comics.
Although Marvel is not well known for turning out award worthy films, it is very well know for its box office returns.
In a rare appearance on the awards list was Andy and Lana Wachowski, who are best known as the duo and creative minds behind "The Matrix" trilogy. They both got nominated for worst director on the film "Jupiter Ascending."
Kelly Marcel, who adapted the screenplay for "Fifty Shades of Grey," got nominated for worst screenplay. Kevin James was also nominated in the category for "Paul Blart 2."
Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson were both nominated for worst screen combo for their performance on "Fifty Shades."
