Eclipse & Last Airbender Lead Razzie Nominees

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse is leading this year's Golden Raspberry Awards (The Razzies) after scoring nine nominations for the upcoming ceremony, which names and shames the worst movies.

The popular vampire sequel is on the shortlist for Worst Picture, while Kristen Stewart is up for the Worst Actress trophy and the film's lead male stars Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner are set to battle it out for Worst Actor.

Jackson Rathbone, who plays Jasper in the blood-sucking series, picked up two nominations for Worst Supporting Actor - one for his role in the latest Twilight project and another for his part in The Last Airbender, which also picked up a total of nine nominations.

The film, starring Dev Patel, landed on the shortlist for awards including Worst Picture, Worst Supporting Actor (Patel) and Worst Supporting Actress (Nicola Peltz).

The other Worst Picture contenders are The Bounty Hunter, Sex and the City 2 and Twilight spoof Vampires Suck.

Joining Stewart in the Worst Actress category are Jennifer Aniston (The Bounty Hunter), Miley Cyrus (The Last Song) and Megan Fox (Jonah Hex), while Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon received a shared nomination for their roles in the second Sex and the City sequel.

Other contenders for this year's Worst Actor title include Jack Black (Gulliver's Travels), Gerard Butler (The Bounty Hunter) and Ashton Kutcher, who is nominated twice for his parts in Valentine's Day and Killers.

The winners of the awards will be announced at a ceremony in Los Angeles on 26 February - a day before the Academy Awards take place.

Last year, Sandra Bullock attended the event to pick up the Worst Actress trophy for All About Steve - a day before she won an Oscar for her part in The Blind Side.

This year's Academy Award nominations – for outstanding achievement in movies – will be announced later this morning.

Sandra Bullock, Land Of The Lost & Transformers 2 Lead Razzies

Sandra Bullock's amazing start to 2010 has just hit a bump - she has been nominated for a Golden Raspberry dishonour for her role in the film flop All About Steve.

The actress is expected to snag her first Oscar nomination on Tuesday for The Blind Side, but the week will be a mix of success and failure.

Bullock has received three unwelcome nods for All About Steve - for Worst Actress, Worst Screen Couple (with Bradley Cooper) and Worst Picture of the Year.

Other nominees for Worst Film are G.I. Joe: the Rise of Cobra, Land of the Lost, Old Dogs and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

Insiders tell the Los Angeles Times that the Twilight sequel came sixth on the list, and therefore just missed out on a nomination.

Land of the Lost and the Transformers sequel tied for the most nominations, with seven apiece.

Bullock's competition in the Worst Actress category are Beyonce Knowles for Obsessed, Miley Cyrus for Hannah Montana: The Movie, Megan Fox for Jennifer's Body and Transformers 2, and Sarah Jessica Parker for Did You Hear About the Morgans?

The three Jonas Brothers join Will Ferrell (Land of the Lost), Steve Martin (Pink Panther 2), Eddie Murphy (Imagine That) and John Travolta (Old Dogs) in the Worst Actor category.

The 30th Razzies will be handed out in Hollywood on the eve of the Oscars.
