Paris Wants to Work with Tarantino, World Laughs

Dingbat Paris Hilton wants to work with Quentin Tarantino for precisely the reason you'd think: "He's so hot right now."

Hilton is quoted by The Mirror during her questionable attendance of the Cannes Film Festival this week, where she watched and loved Inglourious Basterds. Aren't you happy that Paris Hilton got to see that movie before you? She's so intellectually and artistically curious. One thing she's not, though, is a very good actress, and after a string of flops, Paris says she doesn't want to make more movies...unless it's with Tarantino. You know, because she's in a position to make up her own terms, I guess. "I've always preferred doing reality shows to acting because I can just be myself," Hilton admits, "but he's the director I'd do it for. I want to be his next 'Bride' like Uma Thurman in Kill Bill!"

The Razzies Love 'The Love Guru'

As everyone expected, The Love Guru and Paris Hilton were the big winners/losers at the Golden Raspberry Awards. The Razzies, of course, acknowledge the worst movies and performances of the year, and they're always announced the night before the Oscars.

Mike Myers' magnum opus picked up three awards, as did Hilton's The Hottie and The Nottie. Paris executed the rare double shot, earning Worst Actress and Worst Supporting Actress. In a strange way, it's her most notable achievement that doesn't involve jail. Uwe Boll finally won the Worst Career Achievement Razzie, and there was even room for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

And the Razzie Goes To...

The Razzie nominations were announced today, in keeping with the tradition of falling just before the Academy Awards whenever it matters. As you probably know, these aren't the awards you really go for if you're in the movie business, since they highlight the worst of the worst.

The big "winners" appear to be The Love Guru, Uwe Boll, and Paris Hilton. Mike Myers' atrocity is up for seven Golden Raspberries, while Hilton pulled the Kate Winslet, receiving nominations for Worst Actress and Worst Supporting Actress. Well done! Uwe Boll, in addition to taking home the career achievement award, picked up three other additional nominations, as did his films, effectively tying him with Myers for inflicting the most pain on moviegoers in 2008. A few weeks ago, we had the Razzies shortlist, and now they've culled that list down, scraping through the bottom of the barrel. Here are the official nominees: Worst Picture:
Disaster Movie and Meet the Spartans
The Happening
The Hottie & the Nottie
In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale
The Love Guru Worst Actor:
Larry the Cable Guy - Witless Protection
Eddie Murphy - Meet Dave
Mike Myers - The Love Guru
Al Pacino - 88 Minutes and Righteous Kill
Mark Wahlberg - The Happening and Max Payne Worst Actress:
Jessica Alba - The Eye and The Love Guru
The cast of The Women (Annette Bening, Eva Mendes, Debra Messing, Jada Pinkett-Smith and Meg Ryan)
Cameron Diaz - What Happens in Vegas
Paris Hilton - The Hottie & the Nottie
Kate Hudson - Fool's Gold and My Best Friend’s Girl

'Love Guru,' Stallone, Paris Lead Razzie Nominees

I love The Razzies. I love that there's complete balance with the good films and the bad films, or at least, what we're supposed to value as the good films and devalue as the bad ones. I love that the ceremony is the day before the Oscars, and I love that Halle Berry showed up to collect the awards for Catwoman. She's a bit loony, that one, but I gained a lot of respect for her because she was willing to bite the bullet and make fun of herself.

Here are the official nominees for the 29th annual Razzies: Worst Picture:
Speed Racer
Disaster Movie and Meet the Spartans
The Day the Earth Stood Still
High School Musical 3
The Hottie & The Nottie
Dungeon Siege
The Love Guru
Postal
Rambo
The happening
Meet Dave
Witless Protection Worst Actor:
Zac Efron
Dane Cook
Larry the Cable Guy
Eddie Murphy
Al Pacino
