‘Zoolander 2,’ ‘Batman v. Superman’ Top 2017 Razzie Awards Nominations
While Hollywood moves to honor the best in cinema at the 2017 Oscars, it'll first identify the truly worst.
Today (January 23), The Razzie Awards — which annually celebrates the year's most terrible features — released their crop of nominees for the 37th ceremony, and the show is shaping up to be a showdown between Zoolander 2 and Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice.
And, in a truly stunning feat, the Razzies have announced that they're expanding most categories to include six nominees. Previously, each field has run with five, but movies were so poor in 2017, the production were forced to make the amendment.
"The crop of cinematic crap in 2016 was so extensive that this year's 37th annual Razzie Awards is expanding the number of nominees from the usual five to an unprecedented six contenders in each of its nine worst achievement in film categories," the group said in a statement.
Check out the mighty Razzies contenders below, and see who walks away a winner/loser after the show's February 25 ceremony.
