Talk about finding love in a hopeless place. The Razzie nominations are in, and for the first time ever, the awards show that backhandedly celebrates mediocrity or worse is honoring former winners who've gone on to give performances that don't deserve $4.79 fruit trophies spray-painted gold.
Among the potential recipients of the Redeemer Award are Jennifer Aniston for Cake, Kristen Stewart for Camp X-Ray, and Ben Affleck for Best Split-Second Peen Cameo in a Drama Gone Girl.
On the more traditional butt-of-the-joke end, films such as The Legend of Hercules, Transformers: Age of Extinction, and Blended picked up multiple nods, along with Cameron Diaz (for both lead actress and supporting actress), Drew Barrymore, and Melissa McCarthy.
Watch the announcement video below, and keep scrolling for the full list of nominees.

Update, 2/23: And the Razzie goes to...Cameron Diaz, for starring in such cinematic, uh, things as The Other Woman and Sex Tape. (She was nominated for Worst Supporting Actress, too, but no dice in that category.) Taking home the Worst Actor title was Kirk Cameron, whose film Saving Christmas won a mystifying four awards total, while Ben Affleck scored the least-sarcastic win of the night: the Redeemer, "for Gigli to Oscar darling for Argo and Gone Girl." Congrats, everybody, and may you not be in the running next year.
