I think the Razzies have jumped the shark. Probably jumped it a year or two or three ago. I saw plenty of movies worse than Twilight Saga: Eclipse, but no matter how good or bad Breaking Dawn is, it will be nominated for everything next year. Why? It seems motivated by internet traffic bait. No nomination for Cop Out? Repo Men? When in Rome? Legion? MacGruber? Only one for Grown Ups?

I do applaud the scorn heaped upon Sex & the City 2, anything touched by Friedberg & Seltzer, and the Bad 3-D category. I didn't hate The last Airbender as much as most people, and it may have been because I saw it in 2-D. But I did see Clash in 3-D and it was awful.
