The Golden Raspberry Award or, as it is best known, the Razzie Award, is basically the opposite of the Academy Awards (the Oscars). This award honors the worst achievements in film in a calendar year, as determined by the paid membership of the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation.
And now… the haters. The winners (or losers, if you will) of the 2014 Razzie Awards were announced Saturday, March 1, 2014, one day before the Academy Awards ceremony (or “Oscar eve”) – the traditional date for the Razzies.
After Earth and Movie 43 each won three awards. Movie 43, an anthology comedy film, was named “Worst Picture” of 2013. Grown Up 2, the Adam Sandler and pals film that was a sequel to an earlier Adam Sandler and pals film, had received nine nominations, but did not win any – apparently the biggest shutout in Razzie Award history.

WORST ACTOR
Jaden Smith: After Earth

2014 Razzie Award Nominations - Complete List
by Leroy Douresseaux
The 34th Annual Razzie Awards are tonight.
The Golden Raspberry Award or, as it is best known, the Razzie Award, is basically the opposite of the Academy Awards (the Oscars). This award honors the worst achievements in film in a calendar year, as determined by the paid membership of the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation.
Unlike the Oscars, BAFTAs, Golden Globes, and other awards, black and African-American performers and filmmakers are well represented in the Razzies. Razzie voters seem to have a particular hatred for Tyler Perry. That is why I often think of the Razzies as nothing more than a hater fest for jealous bitches and envious ho’s. I hear charges of nepotism concerning Will Smith and his son, Jaden, around the movie After Earth. Nepotism in Hollywood: is that a new thing? Really?

Last "Twilight" Film Dominates 2013 Razzie Awards
by Leroy Douresseaux
The Golden Raspberry Award or, as it is best known, the Razzie Award, is basically the opposite of the Academy Awards (the Oscars). This award honors the worst achievements in film in a calendar year, as determined by the paid membership of the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation.
The nominations for 33rd Annual Razzie Awards were announced on January 8, 2013, and the 33rd Annual Razzie Awards were announced Saturday, February 23, 2013, one day before the Academy Awards ceremony. This is the tradition, although the previous awards ceremony (32nd) was held on April Fool’s Day.
Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 won 7 of the 10 categories at the 33rd Annual Razzie Awards. Adam Sandler continued his recent reign as a performer at the Razzie Awards, winning "Worst Actor" for That's My Boy. I am a fan of the Twilight films (though I've only read the first two books in the series), and I think the Razzie voters are just haters when it comes Twilight. In fact, I think they're haters in general. The Razzies are the mirror image of the Oscars. Why? Both focus, for the most part, on the Hollywood industry - highlighting big names to serve their own self-interests. Anyway, here are the winners/losers...

According to "The Odds" column at the The Wrap.com, there were 637 voters for this year dis-honors. The Last Airbender and Sex and the City 2 took the brunt of these voters' ire. Airbender is problematic, but I like Sex and the City 2:
