'Twilight Saga' and 'Last Airbender' Lead in Razzie Nominations


The Razzies, the satirical award show the honors the "worst achievements in film," has released its nominations this morning, and we're guessing they're not Twi-hards.

The supernatural romance franchise The Twilight Saga was heavily drubbed this year, netting nominations for Worst Movie, Worst Actor for Taylor Lautner, Worst Actress for Kristen Stewart, Worst Supporting Actor for Jackson Rathbone, Worst Screen Ensemble for the entire cast of Twilight, Worst Director for David Slade, Worst Screenplay for Melissa Rosenberg, and, finally, Worst Prequel, Remake, Rip-Off or Sequel.

Not that Twilight should feel too terrible. M. Night Shyamalan's The Last Airbender was similarly dismissed, taking home nominations for everything from Worst Picture to Worst Eye-Gouging Mis-Use of 3D (a new category for the 2010 Razzies).

Three former Oscar winners also found themselves nominated for a Razzie this year. Cher, Liza Minnelli, and Barbra Streisand all recieved a nomination for Worst Supporting Actress.

The Razzies will be awarded at the Barnsdall Gallery Theatre in Hollywood on Feb. 26 -- the night before the Oscars.
