31st Annual Razzie Award Nominations List

The Golden Rasberry Award or "Razzie" is an award given in recognition of the worst in film.  The Razzie has been given out since 1981 and usually corresponds with the Academy Awards by one day.  Like the Academy Awards, the Razzie's focus in on Hollywood films, movies produced by the major and semi-major studios.  The Oscars go to best films from the major players, and the Razzies go to the worst from the big studios.
