The nominations for the 29th Annual Razzie Awards have just been released, with The Love Guru and Uwe Boll cleaning up across the categories.

Mike Myer's comedy received seven nominations, including Worst Picture, Worst Actor, Worst Actress, Worst Supporting Actor, Worst Director and Worst Screenplay.

Totalfilm.com favourite Uwe Boll also racked up an impressive score, tallying eight combined nods for Postal and In The Name Of The King: A Dungeon Siege Tale. Of note is his nomination for worst screen couple - "Uwe Boll & ANY Actor, Camera or Screenplay."
