Golden Raspberry Award For Worst Screenplay
The Razzie Award for Worst Screenplay is an award presented at the annual Golden Raspberry Awards for the worst film screenplay of the past year. The following is a list of nominees and recipients of that award, including each screenplay's author(s). The Golden Raspberry Award Foundation renamed this award The Joe Eszterhas Dis-Honorarial Worst Screenplay Award after Eszterhas won his second award in this category. The only other writer with multiple wins is Daniel Waters, also with two Razzies.
Three "winners" received their awards, though only one in the actual ceremony, Catwoman co-writer Michael Ferris. Razzies founder John J. B. Wilson delivered the prize to Brian Helgeland - who after winning an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for L.A. Confidential expressed interested in receiving his Razzie for The Postman - in his office, and to J.D. Shapiro, co-writer of Battlefield Earth, in a radio program.

Famous quotes containing the words golden, award and/or worst:
“Go, throng each other’s drawing-rooms,
Ye idols of a petty clique:
Strut your brief hour in borrowed plumes,
And make your penny-trumpets squeak:
Deck your dull talk with pilfered shreds
Of learning from a noble time,
And oil each other’s little heads
With mutual Flattery’s golden slime.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
—Robert Graves (1895–1985)
“The conclusion has never changed: the worst sort of people come here for the worst sort of reasons and put upon those of us who have conveniently forgotten where we came from and how we got here.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
