Razzie awards, Batman vs Superman and Zoolander 2 top the nominations
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is among the top nominees for the 37th annual Golden Raspberry Awards, aka the Razzies, which spotlight the worst in film every year.
Calling the movie a “WTF comic-book battle royale,” Razzie organizers said the Ben Affleck–Henry Cavill film landed a total of eight nominations, including worst picture of 2016, where it will vie with Dirty Grandpa, Gods of Egypt, Hillary’s America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party, Independence Day: Resurgence, and Zoolander No. 2 for the honor.
Overall, Zoolander No. 2 (a “15-years-too-late sequel”) led the pack of nominees with a total of nine mentions, while other multiple nominees were Dirty Grandpa (six); Gods of Egypt, Hillary’s America, and Independence Day: Resurgence (five apiece); and Alice Through the Looking Glass (three).
Both Batman v Superman and Zoolander No. 2 also are nominated for worst remake, ripoff, or sequel. In addition, Affleck — who in 2015 won the “Razzie Redeemer” prize for making the transition from the critically drubbed Gigli to Oscar winner Argo and acclaimed Gone Girl — and Cavill are both up for worst actor and worst screen combo. The film also is nominated for worst screenplay and worst director for Zack Snyder.
