The Golden Raspberry Awards, or Razzies, have been "celebrating" the worst in film since 1980, and this year's nominations have just been announced. Leading the charge with nods in 6 categories is Fifty Shades Of Grey, but right behind it with 5 is Josh Trank's much maligned Fantastic Four reboot which picked up noms for Worst Picture, Worst Director, Worst Screen Combo, Worst Remake or Sequel and Worst Screenplay. Channing Tatum's Jupiter Ascending also got a lot of recognition, as did Razzie regular Adam Sandler and anyone associated with anything he did in 2016. Only fair!

The Razzies have been criticized for only going after the easy targets (films panned by most critics and box office flops), but what do you think? Anything you'd like to add to this list?

Fantastic Four was worse than Jupiter Ascending and Pixels. I didn't see the other two though.

Fan4stic wasnt a film, it was a beginning and an ending that didn't relate to each other, it was two prolonged trailers for two different interpretations of the Fantastic Four both made with the same cast.

I thought Pixels was alright, derivative and silly but its not in the same league as the FF, which I genuinely thought was guilty of breaking the trades descriptions act for claiming to be a film at all.

As for Jupiter Ascending, oh my god that was awful. Space queen reincarnated as toilet cleaner is actually both genetically identical and also completely different to her former self. She goes to a different planet with Sean Bean and a space dog who has flying rollerskates and fills out some forms, she nearly gets married to her son because he tells her to and afterwards she goes back to cleaning toilets while her human subjects are being farmed in their billions... But at least it had three acts.

I think Fox Needs to CUT them loose... We could have Galactus and Surfer in time for phase 4.

If FoX cut them loose now we can have the FF be involved in Infinity War movies and Silver Surfer play a part in it too

Do you really feel that way or are you rustling jammies?

Antman might not be a Nolan DK style of superhero movie but the movie was good. Very entertaining and made me a believer in Rudd as Antman. I was skeptical about him when he was casted. But I enjoyed the movie and the cast was great. SpecialFX were bananas.

Why is it a 'disservice' to call this film Tranks? He made the thing!! He backed it right till it went out for general release and then went on twitter to denounce it!He openly had a go at the Fantastic Four fans and told them to take a hike and said he would do it 'his way'. Well hey presto he did it his way and it bombed. Yes, Chronicle was good but one film does not a Director make. He was dropped like a hot potato from 'Star Wars' and in my opinion that was a wise decision. Trank = over-rated

@COR3Y

Id say Paul Blart 1 was the worst movie I've ever watched (and I've seen Catwoman), so a sequel is probably just as bad if not worse.
But I didn't watch that crap so who knows how bad it really is besides the 1 kindergarten class in Boston who watched a pirated version of the movie so as not to support Kevin James's bad movie making habits.

LMAO some people on here actually thought this turd was gonna be good. Shit, there's people here that are still adamant that the first half was good. And that, kids, is why you never smoke crack.

Right now The Fantastic Four is on Demand for rent. What made me laugh out loud was the first line in the summery which was

"The Fantastic Four make a triumphant return with Marvel's next generation of heroes...."

I would call many things but not a "triumphant return". Some one must have been on some serious drugs when they wrote that.
