‘Transformers: Age Of Extinction’ Leads Razzies Worst-Of List

 “Transformers” is rolling out with the most nominations at this year’s Golden Raspberry Awards.

The action sequel starring Mark Wahlberg alongside the morphing robots led the Razzie lineup Tuesday with seven nominations, including worst picture, worst sequel, worst screenplay and worst screen combo. “Transformers: Age of Extinction” is also up for worst director for Michael Bay, worst supporting actress for Nicola Peltz and worst supporting actor for Kelsey Grammer, who was also recognized for his supporting roles in “The Expendables 3,” ‘‘Legends of Oz” and “Think Like a Man Too.”

This year’s other worst picture nominees are “Kirk Cameron’s Saving Christmas,” ‘‘Left Behind,” ‘‘The Legend of Hercules” and “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.” The faith-based comedy “Saving Christmas” and the Kellan Lutz action flick “Legend of Hercules” each follow “Transformers” with six nominations in such categories as worst director, worst screen combo and worst actor for Cameron and Lutz.

The contenders for the Razzies, which launched in 1980 as a spoof of Hollywood’s awards season, comes ahead of Thursday’s Oscar nominations. The winners for the 35th annual Razzies will be announced Feb. 21, the night before the 87th annual Academy Awards. While far less star-studded than other award shows, past recipients including Halle Berry and Sandra Bullock have shown up in person to claim their gold spray-painted prizes.
