Author Topic: "Inspired by the Razzies" Charles Everett Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: New Jersey Registered: May 2001 posted 04-20-2002 10:34 AM                     Miramax manipulates the Academy Awards to make sure it wins Oscars (if not nominations). The New York Times manipulates the Pulitzer Prizes to make sure it wins Pulitzers (if not nominations). As we Film-Techers know, the Razzies are the opposite of the Oscars. The Razzies celebrate the worst movies of the year -- and you can't buy that award, you've got to earn it. Now somebody has taken a cue from the Razzies and suggested an award to honor the worst news reporting of the year. I post this today because it's 1 year to the day that Freddy Got Fingered was released.  |  IP: Logged Dave Williams Wet nipple scene Posts: 1836 From: Salt Lake City, UT, USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 04-20-2002 10:51 AM                        You want to talk about manipulation? The site you point us to does nothing but attempt a massive mind screw. The stuff these two guys "report" is nothing more than thier own personal take on whatever issue they happen to want to sell to whomever is willing to part with thier hard earned dollars. I tend to never trust any person of truth and news who has a book to sell or merchandise to pander. These guys would be on the top of the worst list, but they would get some nods for bieng entertaining, in a conspiracy theory kind of way. Dave  |  IP: Logged
