Adam Sandler is setting a record of dubious distinction. Sandler is tied to eleven Razzie nominations from the Golden Raspberry Foundation, the group that recognizes the worst accomplishments in film. The foundation cited Sandler's work in three critically-panned movies last year, noting that he more than doubled Eddie Murphy's old record for the most Razzie nominations accrued by a single individual in a single year. The former "Saturday Night Live" player picked up Razzie nods for films he starred in produced and wrote last year - "Jack and Jill," "Just Go With It," and "Bucky Larson: Born To Be A Star." "Jack and Jill" leads the list of nominees with 12 Razzie nods including Worst Picture and Worst Actor and Worst Actress for Sandler. While the Razzie Awards are usually presented the night before the Oscars, the awards presentation date was changed to April 1st this year - April Fool's Day.
The Razzies' Worst Picture category also includes "New Year's Eve"; "Transformers: Dark of the Moon"; and "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 1." Sandler's co-nominees in the Worst Actress category include Sarah Palin for the documentary "Sarah Palin: The Undefeated"; Sarah Jessica Parker for "I Don't Know How She Does It" and "New Year's Eve"; and Kristen Stewart for "Breaking Dawn."
Worst Actor nods also went to Russell Brand for "Arthur"; Nicolas Cage for the films "Drive Angry 3-D," "Season of the Witch" and "Trespass; Taylor Lautner for "Abduction" and "Breaking Dawn," and Nick Swardson for "Bucky Larson." Oscar winner Al Pacino, meantime, is nominated for Worst Supporting actor by way of his work in Sandler's "Jack and Jill."
