LOS ANGELES — “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” made a fortune. “Land of the Lost” tanked.
Both films are equal earners at the Razzies, though, grabbing seven nominations each Monday, including worst picture of 2009 and worst-acting slots for Will Ferrell and Megan Fox.
Other worst-picture nominees: Sandra Bullock’s romance “All About Steve,” the action tale “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” and the Robin Williams-John Travolta comedy “Old Dogs.”
Bullock earned a worst-actress nomination for “All About Steve.” She’s expected to score an Academy Award nomination today for her hit drama “The Blind Side.”
“She could be the first person ever to win a Razzie and an Oscar in the same weekend,” said John Wilson, founder of the Golden Raspberry Awards, which singles out Hollywood’s low points. Winners will be announced March 6, the night before the Oscars.
Razzie 2009 nominees also include Miley Cyrus as worst actress and her dad, Billy Ray, as worst supporting actor for “Hannah Montana: The Movie.” Fox was nominated as worst actress for both “Revenge of the Fallen” and “Jennifer’s Body.”
For worst actress, Bullock, Cyrus and Fox are up against Beyonce Knowles for “Obsessed” and Sarah Jessica Parker for “Did You Hear About the Morgans?”
The Jonas brothers shared a worst-actor nomination for “Jonas Brothers: The 3-D Concert Experience.” Also nominated were Steve Martin in “The Pink Panther 2,” Eddie Murphy in “Imagine That” and Travolta in “Old Dogs.”
Robert Pattinson was nominated as worst supporting actor for “The Twilight Saga: New Moon.” Co-star Kristen Stewart is in the running for worst screen couple paired with either Pattinson or “New Moon” player Taylor Lautner.
