The 29th Annual Razzie Awards have just announced this year's nominees for the worst films of 2008 and it was a bumper year it seems.

My vote is for The Love Guru, which is one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life.
Wow, those look like some amazingly well deserved noms. I remember the first time I became aware that there was such a movie as "The Hottie and the Nottie." It's bad luck just knowing that's out there.
Gotta say, JPX, 4 Christmases and now Love Guru...I think you need to speak with someone about better time management.
Don't forget his obsession with Full House and Home Improvement Landshark!
What the hell is Full House and Home Improvement?
Speed Racer got totally screwed. I don't mean everyone should have gone out and seen it, necessarily, but low box does not always equal crap movie.
I don't understand the Stallone hate. Rambo was exactly what it should've been, a balls-to-the-wall violent action flick, I loved it.
