It’s Razzie Time! The 2008 Razzies have released their list of nominees for this year’s awards. The Razzies are handed out each year on the day before the Oscars are announced. The awards “honor” the WORST films of the year. My favorite Razzie moment is still when Halle Berry showed up in person to accept her award for Worst Actress (Catwoman). She showed a lot of class and that she had a great sense of humor too.
Anyway, via our friends over at Cinematical, here are the 2008 Razzie Nominees (My picks have the “*” beside them)
