Though he can expect absolutely no love from the Academy on Oscar night, Adam Sandler will at least be able to count on winning a few awards. Unfortunately – or fortunately, depending on whether he chooses to take the classy, Sandra Bullock route and pitch in with the joke by showing up to collect – he can likely expect more than one gong from the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation.
Yes, the annual 'joke'-fest, which has shifted its schedule this year to announce its nominations before the Oscars and then the winners on April 1 (fitting!) has opted to anoint Sandler its Razzie king-in-waiting this year, with **Jack & Jill **taking 12 nominations. That’s one more than the Razzies have categories…
Others on the roll of (dis)honour this year include Transformers: Dark Of The Moon, Taylor Lautner, Martin Lawrence (up for best actress for** Big Mommas: Like Father Like Son)** and The Hangover 2, which qualifies as both a sequel and a remake.
