2019 Razzie Nominations: 'Gotti', 'Holmes & Watson', Donald Trump & 'Happytime Murders' Among The Worst
Every year, there are plenty of awards honoring the best movies, but only the Golden Raspberry Awards tackle the worst of the worst. The 2019 Razzie nominations have just come in today, and it should come as no surprise that the universally panned Gotti starring John Travolta is one of the most nominated movies with six nods. But Gotti has company since Holmes & Watson and The Happytime Murders also rounded up the same number. The Razzies also decided to take some shots at Donald Trump by giving Dinesh D'Souza's right-wing trash Death of a Nation and the subjects of Fahrenheit 11/9 some nominations too.
Get the full list of 2010 Razzie nominations below.
Before we get to the list, we just want to acknowledge that the Razzies really aren't fun anymore. They're always punching down and taking the easiest, cheapest shots at movies we already know are terrible. And while all of us on the /Film staff are all about taking shots at Donald Trump, even the nominations given to Fahrenheit 11/9 feel like a stretch for the Razzies, especially when you're nominating Donald Trump, Melania Trump, and Kellyanne Conway for the acting categories.
