Lindsay Lohan, Eddie Murphy Sweep Razzies

BuzzSugar — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 16:37:30 PST

Between Saturday's Independent Spirit Awards and Sunday's Oscars, it's a weekend for recognizing great films. But we can't be getting too lovey-dovey about the year's movies, can we? That's where the Razzies come in. The 28th annual Golden Raspberry Awards also announced their "winners" this weekend, taking a few folks down a peg.

The biggest smack-downs went to Lindsay Lohan and I Know Who Killed Me, which won a total of eight awards. Eddie Murphy and Norbit weren't immune, either, getting three of the $4.89 gold spray-painted trophies. With such dominance from those two movies, the only other film to sneak in was Daddy Day Camp, which got the nod for Worst Prequel or Sequel.

Razzie Nominations: Lohan, Norbit Among the Worst Offenders

BuzzSugar — Mon, 21 Jan 2008 10:30:40 PST

A day before Hollywood recognizes its finest with Oscar nominations, the 28th annual Golden Raspberry Awards stepped up to call out the film world's worst. Lindsay Lohan's I Know Who Killed Me led all movies with nine nominations, but Eddie Murphy did LL one better, singlehandedly garnering five nominations (in four different categories!) for his multiple Norbit characters. That's a new Razzie record for one person, a dubious honor if ever there was one.

Coming in alongside those two films for the Worst Picture nomination: Bratz, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, and Daddy Day Camp. The Razzies themselves - classy $4.98 spraypainted statuettes - will be presented Feb. 23 in Santa Monica; I'm guessing a writers' guild picket line won't be an issue. For the complete list of nominees, just

Will Norbit Hurt Eddie's Chance at the Oscar?

PopSugar — Fri, 09 Feb 2007 17:26:26 PST

Eddie Murphy follows up his award-winning performance in Dreamgirls with the comedy Norbit, which premiered last night in Westwood. In the film, Eddie plays both a grossly obese woman and the mild-mannered man she is engaged to. The film is getting pretty bad reviews so far and some are even saying that it might hurt Eddie's chances at the Oscars! Eddie is known best for his comedic performances so we think he is just staying true to his form. If you haven't voted for Eddie or whomever else you think will take home the Oscar then click here to fill out your ballot now.

Regardless of the bad reviews, tons of celebs made it out to the premiere including co-star Thandie Newton, Tyrese, the Wayans, Chris Rock and more so just

4 Things That Are Terribly Wrong With the Jack and Jill Trailer

Shannon Vestal — Fri, 08 Jul 2011 15:04:45 PDT

Hey, remember how in Funny People Adam Sandler's character starred in a bunch of bad big-budget movies? Well, Sandler's dual-role comedy Jack and Jill, in which he plays a man and his own sister, totally seems like it could be one of those fake films. Except it's real, and it's less than spectacular. The trailer is full of lazy jokes and cliches - but before you watch, check out the four things that I've pinpointed as the most offensive elements.

Katie Holmes is in this. I appreciate Holmes trying to add some comedy to her career, but why on earth she chose this movie for that purpose is beyond me.
Adam Sandler doesn't need to make this movie. He's funny and certainly doesn't need the paycheck. Echoing the above sentiment: why?
It's not funny. Where are the laughs? Sorry, Sandler in a wig and a dress isn't enough. They couldn't even spring for some good prosthetics?
We've seen this movie before. It's called Norbit.
