Taking a quick break from picking on Adam Sandler, the Razzie Awards chose an even easier target instead this time around by giving the Twilight franchise their own version of a proper sendoff.

moviewatcher,
Battlefield and/or John Carter? I mean come on, the Razzies now have become the “pretentious, let’s go after this franchise or this actor or actress or this movement so we look cool and hype and internet friendly award”
If they really wanted to award the worst they would have given to either of the aforementioned films.

Prometheus at least deserved to be nominated for worst movie. Twilight is crap and we all know it before it even hits theaters. Prometheus was one of the biggest disappointments (If not, the biggest disappointment) of 2012.

Woah big upset in the worst actor category…thought R-Patts had it locked up but Sandler stole it from him.

They almost never fail to give it to Adam Sandler, regardless of if he’s bad or just mediocre…

Totally unrelated Joey, but I’m getting ready to watch Ruby Sparks based on your recommendation. Better be good!

Anyone who saw The Oogieloves and DIDN’T vote for it for Worst Picture doesn’t know what they’re talking about.

As usual though, most didn’t bother seeing what was likely the actual worst…
