Fuck the Oscars, predict the 2015 - 2016 Razzie Awards!

If you don't know what the Razzie awards are, this gives you more information:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Raspberry_Awards

So here's my nominees for Worst Picture:

- We Are Your Friends
- Pixels
- Jupiter Ascending
- Do You Believe?
- United Passions

I'll have to think about my nominees for Worst Director and Screenplay.

I very much respect the actors who show up to accept their awards

I'm pretty sure Mortdecai / Johnny Depp will be featured prominently this time

John Oliver was talking about how movie review quotes can be edited to say anything like "Mortdecai is a steaming pile of.... great!"

They are filming Joe Dirt 2 now, so that will win next year for sure.

is an automatic lock for a Razzie nomination. Examples include Left Behind and Saving Christmas just from the last year or so. That makes Do You Believe this year's incarnation I guess, that trailer is one of the worst things I've ever seen.

I'm going to add Chappie to the list along with Hot Pursuit and Paul Blart Mall Cop 2

Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 I could definitely see getting a nomination - maybe not worst picture, more like a "WTF were you thinking America???" award.

Hollywood should stop trying to make it into a movie - just embarrassing itself
