Basically Razzies are chosen due to personal vendetta.
Looking at the nominations, I get a similar feeling. But I think they probably choose the nominations based on what's popular and what will keep people talking about The Razzies. There are an untold amount of truly poor films every year, but I'd be willing to bet the nominators don't even pay attention to those -The Razzies would quickly lose mainstream relevance if they focused on the straight-to-DVD offerings.
I don't think straight-to-DVD films are even eligible. Most film awards require a theatrical release.
Was Allied really bad? I haven't seen it.
P.S. Speaking of which, how come Ghostbusters isn't one of the poll options?
Here's my picks:
10. Assassin's Creed
9. The Brothers Grimsby
8. (tie) Ice Age Continental Drift and The Angry Birds Movie
7. Norm of the North
6. Fifty Shades of Black
5. (tie) Zoolander 2 and Bad Santa 2
4. Divergent Series: Allegiant
3. Alice Through the Looking-Glass
2. Huntsman: Winter's War
1. Ghostbuters (2016)
To everyone putting ID4R on their list, I just wanna know something: why EXACTLY did everyone hate this one? I'm not saying you're wrong for hating on it or that it was fantastic, I'm just wanna know in detail what the damn problem was instead of getting non-sequitur comments like "it was garbage" or "dumpster fire". All I'm seeing is people hating on it because it wasn't the first movie! And frankly, the GB reboot was FAR worse honestly! I put that as my #1 because EVERYONE involved in that movie's production deliberately went out of their way to piss off both the people who were preemptively hating on it AND everyone who wanted to give it a chance! THAT to me is a much bigger sin than a disappointing sequel to me!

While I didn't HATE ID4R, I didn't like it and the reason being is it didn't have the likable, charming characters that the first one did so well. The cast was missing a charismatic lead and Liam Hemsworth just wasn't it.
Hover your mouse over the red smilie face at the end of his message, what does it read?EXCUSE ME?!?!? Let me be HONEST as to why I hated the movie: IT WASN'T ****ING FUNNY! The "all-female GB team" wasn't an issue with me AT ALL! Quite the contrary: I had NO problems with the concept when the movie was first announced and I was one of the few people defending the movie at first prior to the first trailer's release saying on social media "I'll wait until we get some footage first, THEN I'll judge"! Then the trailer came out, and guess what? It was really unfunny and really stupid (That first joke with the ghost vomiting ectoplasm really made my blood boil b/c it was Paul Feig missing the damn point as to why the first 2 movies were funny)! The full movie itself wasn't much better (in fact, the movie's constant "all men are bad" stance was disgusting to me both as a man AND as a guy who prefers equal rights to BOTH genders instead of one or the other)!
So, NO, James, I DON'T hate this movie b/c "hur durr I hate wumanz" you a-hole! Hell, I DON'T hate women, period, so how DARE you accuse me of something just because I hate ONE F-ING MOVIE!I hated it b/c it was BAD, nothing more! Nuff said!

O-face. I don't get it.
O-face. I don't get it.
Wow, Mr. MOVIELORD, you really went off on poor James there.
James O-face will be clearly offended by your rant
What the hell happened in here?
