Razzie Voters Love Guru, Paris and Uwe Boll

The "winners" of the 29th Annual Golden Raspberry (RazzieŠ) Awards were announced on Saturday and here's the press release:

At least someone loved THE LOVE GURU. Voters for The 29th Annual RAZZIE Awards spread the dis-honors around this year, but gave several of their berry biggest trophies to one of 2008's most notorious box office losers, Mike Myers' misbegotten, far-from-mystical "comedy" THE LOVE GURU. In addition to being named the year's Worst Picture, GURU also received spray-painted gold for its screenplay and Myers as Worst Actor, in intentionally tacky ceremonies held on "Oscar Eve" at the Barnsdall Theatre in Hollywood.

But the former SNL star wasn't the year's biggest RAZZIE winner/loser. That dis-stink-tion belongs to "sex-tape-celeb-utant" Paris Hilton, who tied Eddie Murphy's hat-trick from 2007, taking a record-tying 3 trophies in a single year. For her "starring" performance in Worst Picture nominee THE HOTTIE & THE NOTTIE (which Hilton herself executive-produced) the air-headed heiress was gonged for both Worst Actress and as part of the year's Worst Screen Couple (along with co-stars Christine Lakin and Joel David Moore). And for her mostly-left-on-the-cutting-room floor cameo in the "slasher musical" REPO: THE GENETIC OPERA, she was chosen Worst Supporting Actress.

Others roundly RAZZed in the 90-minute Oscar parody included Pierce Brosnan as Worst Supporting Actor for his tone-deaf turn in MAMMA MIA! The year's third-biggest grossing (and most disappointing) movie INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL "won" as Worst Prequel, Remake, Rip-Off or Sequel and world-class worst movie-maker Uwe Boll took both the 2008 Worst Director RAZZIEŽ (for 3 titles) and a well-deserved special Worst Career Achievement dis-honor.

Uwe Boll should be nominated every year even if he even made anything. He is the worst filmmaker of all time and i'm not saying that lightly, i've watched alot of crap in my life and Uwe Boll has the distinction of making me think twice about going to the movie theater. Whenever i see a trailer for one of his movies in the theater there is always, ALWAYS, a groan that rises from the audiences wherever i go. He is even worse than Ed Wood. Each one of his movies (woods) are so bad it's good (even Glen or Glenda) but Uwe Boll's movies are just horrible with no upside (except seeing Kristanna Loken naked in Bloodrayne) that he really is the worst fimmaker of all time. He should be the only person in history, before and after, to be banned from making another movie under penalty of death.

Have i mentioned i hate Uwe Boll?

Worst of the Year: 10,00 B.C.
Runner Up: Babylon A.D.

These two should have some kind of dishonor. Maybe they should have a Biggest Budgeted Crap category.
