"GIGLI’s a Really Big Hit…with RAZZIE® Voters!"

[AmericanErrorist]

After setting a new record for worst second weekend fall-off in Hollywood history, 2003’s most critically
reviled film GIGLI now leads the pack among nominations for The 24th Annual Golden Raspberry (RAZZIE®) Awards, dis-honoring 2003’s Worst Achievements in Film. “Winners” (if that’s the right term here!) will be announced in ultra-low-budget ceremonies scheduled for 10:30am/PST Saturday, February 28
at the Four-Points by Sheraton Hotel in Santa Monica, the now traditional 24 hours BEFORE That Other Award Show (a.k.a. “The Giving Out of the Little Gold Naked Men”).

Competing as 2003’s Worst Picture alongside 9-times-nominated GIGLI are THE CAT-IN-THE-HAT (a.k.a. The Dr. Seuss Mortification Project), that two-hour music video overloaded with guns and T&A CHARLIE’S ANGELS: FULL THROTTLE, the delightfully dunderheaded BEACH PARTY throwback FROM JUSTIN TO KELLY and the first-ever Reality-TV Movie, THE REAL CANCUN. Competing in Worst Actor are Ben Affleck for DAREDEVIL, GIGLI and PAYCHECK, Cuba Gooding Jr. and Ashton Kutcher (also with three titles each) Justin Guarini for JUSTIN TO KELLY and Mike Meyers for his fur-ball-hocking desecration of CAT-IN-THE-HAT. Alongside front-runner Jennifer Lopez for GIGLI, others vying for Worst Actress will be former Oscar® darling Angelina Jolie (BEYOND BORDERS and LARA CROFT 2) ersatz recording “star” Kelly Clarkson for JUSTIN TO KELLY and two of the three CHARLIE’S ANGELS, Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz. Other familiar names listed among contenders for Tinsel Town’s Tackiest Trophy include former Oscar® winners Al Pacino and Christopher Walken (both nominated as Worst Supporting Actor from GIGLI) previous RAZZIE® “winner” Kelly Preston and Alec Baldwin (both nominated for their supporting roles in CAT-IN-THE-HAT) and, copping a record 30th nomination in just 24 years, Awl-Time RAZZIE® Cham-Peen Sylvester Stallone, playing five roles(!) in SPY KIDS 3-D: GAME OVER. A complete list of nominations is included with this press release.

1. They just didn't understand it. Gigli is a SCREAM!

How can you have JLo as a lesbian hitman in a movie with lines like "God bless you, penis" and have anything less than a comedy classic!

2. Sight unseen, still, I'd give it to Cat in the Hat.

At least Gigli wasn't adapted from a much-beloved children's book (though the plot of Gigli might somehow find its way there now that Madonna is writing children's books). I steered 70 miles out of Cat's way after seeing what the same team did to the Grinch three years ago.

Next up, Eminem in Horton Hears a Who!!!!
