In stark contrast to all the celebratory end of the year accolades, the annual Razzie noms are out, taking time to recognize the worst of 2014. This year their main target seems to be Kirk Cameron and his Saving Christmas movie (if you can even call it that), but my favorite thing on this list is the new category they added, the Razzie Redeemer Award. This one is to ostensibly congratulate legendarily consistent Razzie nominees for finally starting to rehabilitate their careers, but frankly, all that does is remind you of how truly shitty the vast majority of their movies have been, doesn't it? Heh. Nice backhanded slap, Razzies.
