Razzie nominations come as no surprise

The nominations for this year's Razzie awards, which nominate the worst in film, were announced today, and leading in the nominations are 9 each for "The Last Airbender" (well deserved) and "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse." I've looked over the nominees and most of them deserve their nominations for a Razzie, but really: if you don't like vampires and/or teen movies, you aren't going to like the "Twilight" series. Give it a rest already. I also don't approve of "Sex and the City 2" being on the list, as I thought it was a cute movie; again, if you don't like the series, you aren't going to like the movie.

Here are the nominees, with my picks in italics. You can read more about the Razzie nominations at MTV.

(for the record: I didn't see "Vampires Suck," but "The Bounty Hunter," "The Last Airbender," "Jonah Hex," and "Killers" were pretty bad, in my opinion)
