Twilight News, Rumors, and Gossip

According to MTV Hollywood Crush,

“Awards season is in full swing, Oscar nominations are announced tomorrow, and it seems like the early months of the year are only here to celebrate the best of the best films. (It’s definitely not to watch them. Cough “Leap Year” cough cough.) In the midst of this industry patting on the back, one awards show stands out from the rest. Today the Razzies announced its list of nominees for the 30th Razzie Awards and — sorry “Twilight” fans — “” met the cut over and over and over again.

While the film will be sure to get plenty of love in the fan-choice awards shows to come, “New Moon” definitely was not a critical favorite. It has been universally ignored by the various awards shows except for being shortlisted for best song (which really doesn’t mean much), but not so by the Razzie’s. “New Moon” was put in the nominations categories for Worst Screen Couple (Kristen Stewart and either Robert Pattinson or Taylor Whatz-His-Fang), Worst Supporting Actor (Robert), Worst Remake, Rip-Off or Sequel and Worst Screenplay (Melissa Rosenberg).

But don’t worry, “New Moon” wasn’t the only film getting plenty of flack. “” (affectionately referred to by the Razzies committee as “Trannies, Too”) and “” tied for the most Razzie noms with seven a piece. The leading men in both films took plenty of flack, with the Worst Onscreen Couple nom for “Trannies, Too” being Shia Lebouf & Either Megan Fox or Any Transformer, and the Worst Onscreen Couple nom for “Land of the Lost” being Will Ferrell and any co-star, Creature or “Comic Riff.” Guess who the Razzie committee didn’t like.”

Nikki Finke of Deadline Hollywood broke the news that Taylor Lautner has booked another project. So not only does Taylor have Breaking Dawn, Max Steele, and an unnamed project    to be shot in Cancun; he now can add Stretch Armstrong to the list.

According to Nikkie Finke, Donna Langley (co-chair at Universal) stated “In the past two years, Taylor has emerged as a real star at the global box office. He brings the perfect balance  of energy and athleticism to the role of an unlikely super hero with a fantastic super power,” said Langley. “We couldn’t be more pleased that he has agreed to be our Stretch.”

Taylor will be 20-years-old by the time the movie shoots in March 2012.
