Twilight deserves these awards much more than Watchmen. It's a much more appropriate film for general audiences than Watchmen. (Which is another way of saying it sucked)
I agree. Winning this type of award is like winning a raspberry. No thanks.
By "raspberry," are you referring to the Golden Raspberry Awards? If so, then I respectfully disagree.
A vote for a Golden Raspberry award is a vote of condemnation, while a vote for a Scream Award is a vote of approval. However, Hollywood actually participates in and pays attention to the Razzies while the Scream Awards are decided by people who -- by and large -- have no power in Hollywood and haven't seen a movie older than the original Star Wars.
Razzies are given out as signs of universal malediction and the Scream Award results are signs of inconsequential praise. In this way, winning a Scream Award is actually the polar opposite of winning a Razzie. In fact, winning a Scream Award is like winning a plain, actual raspberry: It's nice to have one, but what really comes of it?
Uhh...I think he meant it's like winning an actual raspberry, not a Razzie.
