Green and Paul V. went to the ceremony itself! But Cosby still paved the way...c'mon bigshots, have a sense of humor and accept the awards you deserve... from imdb: The film won three Razzie Awards including Worst Picture, Worst Actor, and Worst Screenplay. All of which were personally accepted by Bill Cosby himself, he requested that they be specially made out of 24 carat gold and Italian marble, (at a cost to Fox Networks of about $27,000) and be presented to him on "The Fox Late Show" a few weeks after the actual Razzie ceremony.

NYU 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2005 (edited) George Bush, Halle Berry Share Worst Film Honors LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - George W. Bush won the "Razzie" worst actor of the year award on Saturday for his performance as president in "Fahrenheit 9/11" but his moment in Hollywood's dubious spotlight was eclipsed by Halle Berry (news), who actually turned up to receive her embarrassing accolade. Berry was named worst actress of 2004 by the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation for her performance in "Catwoman" and she showed up to accept her "Razzie" carrying the Oscar she won in 2002 for "Monster's Ball." "They can't take this away from me, it's got my name on it!" she quipped. A raucous crowd cheered her on as she gave a stirring recreation of her Academy Award acceptance speech, including tears. She thanked everyone involved in "Catwoman," a film she said took her from the top of her profession to the bottom. "I want to thank Warner Brothers for casting me in this piece of s---," she said as she dragged her agent on stage and warned him "next time read the script first." It is rare for a Razzie winner to show up at the spoof awards held on the night before Oscars (news - web sites) -- but Berry did, saying her mother taught her that to be "a good winner you had to be a good loser first." She received a standing ovation. Bush, beating such established Hollywood heroes as Colin Farrell and Vin Diesel (news), won the Razzie for worst actor of the year for his appearance in Michael Moore's documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11." Bush, two members of his administration, Britney Spears (news) and the storybook about a goat that the president was reading to children as the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks were taking place all took top honors at the "Razzie" awards, now in their 25th year. "Catwoman" tied with "Fahrenheit 9/11" by winning four "Razzies" -- worst picture, worst directing, worst screenplay and worst performance by an actress for Berry and her "berry bad" work. John Wilson, founder of the nonprofit Golden Raspberry Award Foundation that gives out "Hollywood's least coveted trophies," said Moore's anti-Bush documentary allowed the foundation's nearly 700 members to do some Bush bashing of their own. The president not only was named worst male actor in a leading role, he also won for being half of the year's worst screen couple when paired with either Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice (news - web sites) or "My Pet Goat," the book he was reading to schoolchildren on the morning of Sept. 11. Footage of Bush continuing to read after being given first word of the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon (news - web sites) was one of the key scenes in Moore's highly critical film. Two other "Fahrenheit" stars were "honored." Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was named worst supporting actor and pop star Spears won for worst supporting actress for a clip in which she declared blind faith in Bush's policies while popping chewing gum. Winners receive a golf ball-sized figure of a "Raspberry" atop a mangled Super 8 film reel that is spray-painted gold. It has an estimated street value of $4.97, although Wilson said costs were rising as Super 8 film reel cans are getting harder to find.

Guest JMA Report post Posted February 28, 2005 Damn, that was a pretty cool thing for Halle Berry to do. I gotta say, I'm impressed. In any case, she'll recover from the dreck that was CINO. I mean, George Clooney, Uma Thurman, and John Glover's careers weren't ruined by being in Batman and Robin. I wouldn't be opposed to seeing her return as Storm in X-Men 3.

Guest JMA Report post Posted March 1, 2005 Ben Stiller for Dodgeball and Anchorman? Man, these cats are fucked. Agreed. Those movies were great, as was Stiller. Does anyone know why he was nominated for those films? Is it some kind of joke or something? And yeah, the Bush nominations were pretty lame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
