Mike Myers' comedy "The Love Guru" and celebrity socialite Paris Hilton were top of the flops at the 29th Razzie Awards -- the annual eve-of-Oscars salute to the very worst of Hollywood
|
Myers and his comedy The Love Guru, which won few fans at box offices, were named worst actor and worst picture of 2008 at the Razzie Awards on Saturday, a day before the Oscars are given out in Hollywood.
The comedy featuring Myers as a spiritual healer was also given the Razzie for the worst screenplay of 2008.
The Canadian actor and the movie he spent years developing won gold spray-painted Raspberries at the awards ceremony created in 1980 to spoof the glitzy Academy Awards.
The Love Guru flopped in theaters with only $40.8 million in global ticket sales. That figure is a huge come-down after Myers' three Austin Powers spoofs in which the comedian worked his spy character's positive mojo to perfection, raking in a combined $675 million at global box offices.
Socialite Paris Hilton was the other big award-winner at the 29th annual Golden Raspberry Awards.
Hilton won three trophies: worst actress and worst screen couple for her low-budget romantic comedy The Hottie & The Nottie, as well as worst supporting actress for her role in the horror fantasy Repo! The Genetic Opera.
Some of 2008's biggest blockbusters also got Razzies.
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, the highly anticipated fourth installment of the adventure franchise starring Harrison Ford, was declared the worst "prequel, remake, rip-off or sequel".
Former James Bond star Pierce Brosnan was awarded the worst supporting actor for his singing turn in the ABBA tunes musical Mamma Mia!
The "winners" of the Razzies were determined by mailing ballots to 657 voters living in the United States and 19 foreign countries.
Few Raspberry winners collect their trophies but Oscar winning actress Halle Berry sportingly showed up four years ago to take home her prize for Catwoman.

2008年度“金酸莓獎”于上周六、奧斯卡頒獎典禮前一天揭曉，邁爾斯及其主演的喜劇《愛情大師》被評為年度最差演員和最差影片。
此外，這部票房慘淡的影片還拿下了年度最爛編劇“獎”。
在當天的揭曉儀式上，在該片中飾演一名精神治療師的加拿大演員邁爾斯及這部他花了數年時間打造的影片獲得“鍍金酸莓”獎杯。“金酸莓獎”于1980年創立，是模仿奧斯卡獎的一個諷刺獎項。
影片《愛情大師》全球票房收入慘淡，僅有4080萬美元。這一數字比起邁爾斯的上一部喜劇影片《奧斯汀的力量》三部曲大為遜色。在這部影片中，邁爾斯成功飾演了一位魔力偵探，全球票房收入達6.75億美元。
此外，社交名媛帕里斯?希爾頓也是第29屆金酸莓獎的一大“贏家”。
希爾頓共獲三項“大獎”，她憑借低成本愛情喜劇《愛上野豬妹》獲選最差女主角與最差銀幕搭檔獎，另外還以《莎拉?布萊曼之生化歌劇》拿下最差女配角獎。
2008年的一些大片也“躋身”本屆金酸莓獎。
由哈里森?福特主演的影片、倍受期待的《奪寶奇兵4》獲得“最差前傳、重拍、剽竊或續集獎”。
前任“007”皮爾斯?布魯斯南憑借其在ABBA樂團打造的音樂劇《媽媽咪呀！》中的表演奪得最差男配角獎。
“金酸莓獎”由來自美國和其它19個國家的657名評委通過郵寄投票選出。
本屆金酸莓獎依然是無人前來認領。至今只有曾獲奧斯卡獎的哈莉?貝瑞在四年前來到現場坦然接受頒獎，當時她憑借《貓女》被評為年度最差女演員。
