It's a bad time to be in the worst-of business.
Last month, as Hollywood was rolling out its Oscar nominations and celebrating the year's best films, across town another entity, the Razzies, was lauding the year's worst films. And those nominations were met with a collective groan.
A few days after the Razzie nominations were announced, organizers rescinded the nomination for 12-year-old Ryan Kiera Armstrong, up for worst actress for her role in the little-seen remake of "Firestarter," after backlash alleging the voting body was being too cruel to the child performer. An apology was issued, and a new rule was instituted going forward that the Razzies wouldn't nominate anyone under 18.
