Razzie Awards 2016: A Full List of Movies and Actors Shamefully Nominated
The Oscars aren't the only upcoming award show scheduled to hand out trophies; the Razzie Awards, which celebrate the previous year's worst films and actors, are scheduled to hand out their golden raspberry of dishonor on Feb. 27 – the night before the 88th Academy Awards.
Currently in its 36th year, the Razzies were created in 1980 by John Wilson, author of The Official Razzie Movie Guide and Everything I Know I Learned At The Movies, as a way to lampoon "Tinsel Town's annual glut of self congratulatory awards." In addition to comical spoofs of categories like "worst picture" and "worst actor," the Razzies also hand out the redeemer award, given to previous Razzie winners whom have atoned since their cinematic infraction. Here is the full list of nominated films and actors.
