Al Pacino, an actual Oscar winner and once-respected actor, is up for a Razzie. Now that's just sad.

My picks:
Worst Picture: 'The Love Guru' Worst actor: Mike Myers - 'The Love Guru' Worst actress: Cameron Diaz - 'What Happens in Vegas’ (am I the only one who's getting tired of her ass?) Worst supporting actor: Burt Reynolds – ‘Deal’ and ‘In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale’ Worst supporting actress: Kim Kardashian – ‘Disaster Movie’ Worst screen couple: Eddie Murphy and Eddie Murphy – ‘Meet Dave’ Worst prequel, sequel, remake or rip-off: ‘Star Wars: The Clone Wars’ (another stinker from Lucas) Worst director: M. Night Shyamalan - ‘The Happening’ (deport this guy) Worst screenplay: Doug Taylor – ‘In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale' |

Quote:
I've always loved the Indiana Jones franchise, but I was certainly disappointed by the last film. Still, it wasn't so bad that it deserves a Razzie. Those little suckers should only be reserved for the worst of the worst (like Love Guru and those crappy parody films).

I agree that it wasn't as good, but it is still Indiana Jones and doesn't deserve it, like you said. Love Guru was so dumb it was funny at midnight when I was overly tired, but it definitely deserves to win the Razzie!

I went away from the movie wondering why on earth all the women I know who's husbands are cheating aren't watching this movie and learning from it.
