Forget the Oscars, Sex and the City 2 and The Last Airbender clean up at the RAZZIE Awards
28th Feb 11
Voting members of The Golden Raspberry Award Foundation have sifted through the cinematic rubble of last year’s Berry Worst Achievements in Film, and come up with the “winners” for The 31st Annual RAZZIE Awards. Results are announced in satirical ceremonies held at Hollywood’s Barnsdall Gallery Theatre on Saturday, February 26, 2011 — the now traditional Night Before the Oscars.
Not quite sweeping the ceremony, but still handily leading the pack among this year’s RAZZIE choices is RAZZIE Repeat Offender M. Night Shyamalan’s “re-imagining” of the faux-anime’ TV series The Last Airbender into a jumbled, jump-cut mess of a movie that fans of the TV show hated even more than critics did (if that’s even possible!). In addition to Worst Director and Worst Picture, Airbender also “won” Worst Screenplay, a brand-new RAZZIE category for 2010, Worst Eye-Gouging Mis-Use of 3-D, and Worst Supporting Actor Jackson Rathbone (who had the misfortune to appear in both Airbender and 2010’s other most-RAZZIE-nominated title, Twilight Saga: Eclipse).
The other big “winner” (if that’s the right term when speaking of these awards) was the bling-obsessed superslick chick flick Sex & the City 2, which took gold-spray-painted statuettes for Worst Sequel, Worst Screen Ensemble (for its entire cast) and Worst Actress (presented jointly to the film’s four principles, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristen Davis).
Rounding out the field of this year’s sorriest cinematic losers were King of the Twittering Twits Ashton Kutcher as Worst Actor for both Killers and Valentine's Day, and Jessica Alba, finally “winning” a RAZZIE with her fifth nomination. Alba was named Worst Supporting Actress for her “performances” in four films, The Killer Inside Me, Little Fockers, Machete and Valentine's Day.
