'Batman v Superman', 'Zoolander 2' lead 2017 Golden Raspberry nominations

The most humiliating film awards of the year have officially announced their nominations. "Batman v Superman" was sadly nominated in 8 categories.

On January 23, the Golden Raspberry Awards organizers announced the 37th nomination list, which included a series of disappointing cinematic "disasters" in 2016. Among them, the superhero movie Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice received 8 nominations, including Worst Picture, Worst Actor (Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill), Worst Supporting Actor (Jesse Eisenberg), Worst Collaboration, Worst Sequel, Worst Screenplay, and Worst Director (Zack Snyder).

Despite creating a special media effect and bringing the producer nearly 900 million USD in revenue, Batman v Superman was criticized by critics for its content and disjointed performances.

Among these nominations, the most "unfair" is probably Ben Affleck's appearance in the Worst Actor category because his role as Batman in Batman v Superman was considered quite well-rounded despite having to act on a clumsy script.

Despite having 8 nominations, Batman v Superman is still not the “big brother” in the “race” for the Golden Raspberry this year. One more nomination than the DC Comics work is the “flop” Zoolander 2 (Handsome guy on the floor 2) starring actor Ben Stiller. This is the sequel to the comedy of the same name produced in 2001.

It seemed like Zoolander 2 would be back after 15 years of absence, with more humor. However, not only was it panned by critics, it was also ignored when it only grossed $56 million despite the presence of many famous actors.

In addition to the two names mentioned above, the Worst Picture category also includes Lionsgate's Gods of Egypt, Independence Day 2: Resurgence, Dirty Grandpa, a vulgar comedy by Robert De Niro and Zac Efron, and Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party.

Notably, the "race" to the Golden Raspberry Awards for this year's leading actresses is also full of beauties such as Megan Fox in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows, Julia Roberts in Mother's Day, Becky Turner in Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party, Naomi Watts and Shailene Woodley in Divergent Series: Allegiant and especially the cross-dressing role of comedian Tyler Perry in Boo! A Madea Halloween.

The “winner” of the Golden Raspberry Award is awarded a golden raspberry statuette worth about $4.97. The Golden Raspberry Award ceremony is held on the night of February 24, the day before the 2017 Oscars, and most of the winning actors rarely dare to be present to receive this award.
