The nominations for all of the worst movies of 2008 are out. And lucky, lucky Frank Miller missed the nominations for the worst movie in the history in the world by a few days.Unfortunately, The Spirit came out too late to make the Razzie nomination ballot, according to the site:ALTHOUGH IT FLOPPED TOO LATE to MAKE OUR NOMINATING BALLOT, WE THOUGHT ITS UNDER ACHIEVEMENTS EARNED IT a PLACE on OUR FORUM.

2008 Razzie Nominating Ballot Calls Into Question Seriousness of Awards
The esteemed membership of the Razzie voting committee received their 2008 nominating ballots in the mail yesterday afternoon — and controversy abounds! While the official list of nominees for the year's worst movies and acting won't be released until January 21, the names on the ballot from which serious-minded voters are expected to choose are laughable at best.Never mind egregious omissions like Seven Pounds, the winner of Vulture's Critics' Poll for 2008's crappiest film, and The Spirit, which las

Pick 2008's Worst Movies
Every year as Golden Globes are shined and Oscars are polished, there is one award that no celebrity is interested in receiving: The Golden Razzie, which goes to the year's worst movies and actors. Actually, I shouldn't say "no celebrity" since in 2005 Halle Berry awesomely ascended the stage to claim her worst actress prize for "Catwoman" - check out this clip of her reflecting on the moment. Anyhoo, this year's nominees have been released and, per usual, the choices are pretty spot on, although, Reese

2008 Razzies Nominations Announced
I’m not a hige fan of the Academy Awards or any of those serious awards ceremonies if I’m honest. I know that’s probably not a good career move as a movie blogger but it’s the truth so what the hell. I just can’t get excited about giving awards to actors who have already been paid a huge amount of money to Star in the movies. It’s like they need even more praise and reward than they already get just for being a celebrity. So what I prefer is those spoof awards ceremonie

Jackson in a series of fur coats and Nazi costumes. And yet! MTV writer Larry Carroll got his hands on the offici

We went straight to Razzies founder John Wilson for the scoop.DEFAMER: So the nominees that emerged yesterday weren't official yet? JOHN: What happened is we have press members on our mailing list, and this guy Larry Carroll from MTV's Movie Blog apparently misunderstood and thought that was a final list.

Vulture’s Critics’ Poll: The Complete Ballots
Ballots for the Vulture critics' poll were collected in three ways. Many critics responded to our requests with lists of their worst movies of the year. Many other critics had already published such lists. Finally, for critics who did not respond telling us they did not want to participate, or were unreachable, we combed through their 2008 reviews to find their most memorable pan.Every mention of a film earned that film one point, with a bonus point awarded if a critic named the film the absolute worst of t

MSN produces surpringly somewhat accurate list on the year 2008
Maybe 2007 left us spoiled. With future classics like "Zodiac," "No Country for Old Men" and "There Will Be Blood" gracing our screens, 2008, so far, feels a little less ... significant. But that was on first glimpse; now that we've dug in and really looked back through the entire year, we can safely say (and the year's not over yet) that 2008 has been interesting, unexpected -- especially when it comes to performers.Comedians who are usually funny, like Mike Myers and Will Ferrell, were outshined by actors

The People Have Chosen The Dark Knight
Last night at The People's Choice Awards the fans picked Adam, Reese, Robin, Carrie, Ellen, The Dark Knight and more.

Dakota Fanning continues to glow as she grows so perfectly. Kate Hudson was late but she made it in time to pick up her Favorite Leading Lady Award and in her quirky speech she thanked birthday boy Ryde

Target presents AFI Night at the Movies
Yesterday, after being away from the public eye for some time (except for the occasional paparazzi-photos circulating on the web), Cameron Diaz attended a new event!

Other actors in attendance were big names such as Dustin Hoffman, Denzel Washington, Jim Carrey, Jodie Foster, Keanu Reeves, Mike Myers, Sean Connery and Shirley MacLaine.

Shrek the Third Blu-Ray Review
So now even the ogres are turning Blu!  Shrek the Third, the third film in the Shrk series (could you tell?) comes out on Blu-Ray on September 23.  As the third film in a series you may want to call it a trilogy.  I hesitate to because lately if franchises are doing well enough they no longer stop at three. By now we have all seen the Shrek films and most of us have a pretty basic idea what the film is, a collection of warped fairy tales for kids with a bit of adult humor mixed in.  We have our stars o
