The annual «Golden Raspberry» competition, which celebrates the worst films, this year focused on the fourth film «The Expendables» and the horror «Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey», which received five undesirable awards.
«Blood and Honey» won the «Golden Raspberry» for Worst Picture, Director and Screenplay (Rhys Frake-Waterfield), Screen Duo (Pooh and Piglet) and Remake/Copy/Sequel. Sylvester Stallone and Megan Fox won in the supporting actor category for «The Expendables», and Fox took home the prize for lead actress in «Johnny & Clyde».
The «Golden Raspberry» satirical anti-awards committee was founded in 1981 by John Wilson and Mo Murphy. Last year, the «Golden Raspberries» caused a negative reaction by nominating 12-year-old «Arsonist» star Ryan Keira Armstrong for worst actress. After an uproar on the Internet, «Golden Raspberry» removed Armstrong from the voting and awarded themselves the award for «their 43rd mistake in the Worst Actress» nominations. Last year’s winners were Tom Hanks, Jared Leto, Máshin Han Kelly and Andrew Dominik.
