“All five films up for Worst Picture at this year’s 36th Annual Razzie Awards are big-budget/high-profile productions that have no excuse for being among the year’s ‘berry’ worst. And 2015’s acting contenders include popular stars like Johnny Depp, Channing Tatum, and Kayley Cuoco-Sweeting, previous Oscar winners Gwyneth Paltrow, Eddie Redmaine and Julianne Moore, and such Razzie Repeat Offenders as Adam Sandler, Jennifer Lopez and Katherine Heigl.”

This is so funny and sounds like a lot of fun! Hopefully the Razzie trophy will have a place next to the Oscars and Golden Globe awards some of these actors have received. Being nominated and receiving a Razzie is a good thing!!
It is amazing that they are able to narrow it down to only 5 per category.
