Well, come on. None of us expected G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra to be nominated for any Oscars…though it did get a cursory nod for special effects. In fact, quite the opposite has happened, and G.I.

Worst supporting actress Sienna Miller ? Wha? She was wicked cool!
Marlon Wayans as worst supporting actor? ok….maybe
But Channing Tatum wasn’t elected as worst actor? ahh, c’mon!
Anyway, GIJoe ROC alreday won an award from The Official XBox Magazine : Worst use of a license (Feb 10, page 35.).
Honestly, the razzies have become just the opposite of the academy awards in recent years. Where the academy awards tend to select from a few certain types of movies that few people see, but which are tailor made for the academy, the razzies never truly find the worst, but just pick the easy choices. I mean, was G.I. Joe really deserving of the worst film of last year? really, out of every movie this year most of these surely were not the best choices.
Man, Chatum’s razzie snub is a travesty. His…ugh…”acting” is the worst I’ve seen in a major motion picture!
How in the name of Ba Sing Se is CHANNING TATUM NOT ON THIS LIST!!!!
Seriously…what is wrong with the selective committee? He is the most wooden actor I have ever seen since Keanu Reeves.
I can’t take this list seriously if he is not on it.
lets all hope Michael bay sweeps the razzies, what a trash movie tf2 was…..
“WORST REMAKE, RIP-OFF or SEQUEL”
Well, it wasn’t a remake or sequel, and not sure about everyone else, but, I don’t feel like it was a story-wise rip-off either. I might just not understand this one.
I agree with Barbeque17.
This isn’t a list of real ‘worsts’, it’s a pot shot at these relatively popular films, and nothing more. These things are a joke.
I mean, really, why isn’t Dragonball Z or Street Fighter on this list? 😛
How in the name of Hades did Marlon Wayans get nominated (he was actually the only DECENT male performance) when Channing Tatum didn’t? Honestly, Tatum should get a life time achievement Razzie for the sheer “sucktacular” nature of his portrayal of Duke. I think my cat on Valium would have delivered a more convincing performance.
I’ll agree with barbecue17 and that guy who shares my name. Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li and Dragonball Evolution deserve multiple nominations far more than Rise of Cobra or Revenge of the Fallen.
And let’s not forget horrors like Miss March….
