We don’t think they’re necessarily saying that there were no good movies last year – just that there were distinctly more bad ones than usual…
The annual award show, also known as the ‘Razzies’, honours the worst the film industry has to offer every year. The 'winners' of this year will be announced on February 25th.
This year, the categories were expanded to six categories each for the first time, according to the organisers.
They said in a statement: ‘"The crop of cinematic crap in 2016 was so extensive that this year's 37th annual Razzie Awards is expanding the number of nominees from the usual five to an unprecedented six contenders in each of its nine worst achievement in film categories."
The Worst Picture of 2016 nominees included Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Dirty Grandpa, Gods of Egypt, Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party, Independence Day: Resurgence and Zoolander No. 2.
Batman v Superman and Zoolander No. 2 led the pack of nominees with nine mentions each.
