Twi-hards, you will NOT be pleased.

The nominees for the 31st Annual Razzie Awards were announced and they are loaded with some of your favorite performers and movies for 2010.

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse gets a heaping helping of raspberries and so does The Last Airbender, The Last Song and Jonah Hex. Kristen Stewart, Miley Cyrus, Robert Pattinson, Megan Fox, Jackson Rathbone and lots more were called out for emotionally empty performances or movie making.

The Awards are given out February 26th.

Check out the list below of all the nominees and let’s hear your thoughts on how wrong (or right) this is:

Robert Pattinson is headed to Cosmopolis. The big screen adaptation of the 2003 Don DeLillo novel has found a director in David Cronenberg and it’s lead actor: Pattinson.

The Twilight actor will be Eric Packer, a Manhattan financial manager who starts out one morning in April wealthy, married and headed downtown for a haircut but ends up being followed by assassins and in financial ruins by the end of that same day.

Filming is set to begin in late spring of 2011.

Pattinson is currently finishing The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn in New Orleans.

Stepping out Friday night to the 8th Annual Teen Vogue Young Hollywood Party in Los Angeles was actress Nicola Peltz.

I think the young actress should be cast as a vampire in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – she is the on-screen sister to two Twilight stars:  Jackson Rathbone in The Last Airbender and she will have Robert Pattinson as a brother soon in the independent western, Unbound Captives.

The Last Airbender opened this past weekend with another big summer hit you may have heard about: The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. Considering the tough competition it was up against (and unfortunately terrible reviews,) the movie did surprisingly well raking in $70 million dollars over the three day period.

Star Nicola Peltz is a standout as the Waterbending Katara and Teen Vogue has her on their radar as one to watch. The 15 year old actress said of her time filming the big budget action pic:

“When we shot in Greenland, every night we’d have huge snowball fights behind the hotel!”

It may have been cold on the set, but Peltz won’t have to worry about her career cooling off anytime soon. The teenager not only worked with Jackson Rathbone on Airbender, but her next movie, Unbound Captives, stars that other Twilight guy, Robert Pattinson.

Water, Earth, Fire, Air.

In the movie The Last Airbender, the characters have the ability to ‘bend’ one of the four natural elements and can use that gift for good or bad purposes. Stars Jackson Rathbone, Nicola Peltz, Dev Patel, Noah Ringer and Seychelle Gabriel were asked if they had the ability to manipulate one, which element would they choose and why. Even director M. Night Shyamalan got in on the bending wish list. Check out their answers above.

Ok, maybe they didn’t actually airbend – but Jackson Rathbone and Nicola Peltz, the stars of the live action The Last Airbender, sure did cause a whirl on the red carpet of the 2010 MuchMusic Video Awards in Toronto. The duo are super cute together and while The Twilight Saga: Eclipse promotions are going strong with Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart, Jackson has been concentrating on Airbender duties as of late.

The Six Flags Discovery Kingdom in California had a visit from The Last Airbender stars Jackson Rathbone and Nicola Peltz as the duo met with fans on Thursday afternoon. Tiger cubs were cuddled, otters were held and pictures were taken.

Rathbone and Peltz will play the live-action version of Sokka and Katara, the Water Tribe siblings who accompany Aang (Noah Ringer) as he journeys to the North Pole, learns waterbending and kicks Fire Nation booty along the way.

The trend continues. The live action big screen adaptation of Nickelodeon’s super successful animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender will be released in 3D this summer.

The Last Airbender, directed by M. Night Shymalan and starring Jackson Rathbone, Nicola Peltz, Dev Patel and Noah Ringer will switch from 2D film to 3D and still hit theaters July 2nd. Check out the latest trailer above.

With controversy swirling, M. Night Shyamalan has cast Jesse McCartney as Prince Zuko in The Last Airbender. The live action film version of Nickelodeon’s super successful animated show, Avatar: The Last Airbender, is receiving it’s share of criticism due to the all white cast. McCartney had this to say:

“There’s a lot of hard-core fans out there [who] probably know more about it…I’m still learning. This is M. Night’s vision and this is what he wants. To all the fans, I can tell you I’m putting my best foot forward.” He further adds, “I’ve been in kung-fu training for the last month and half-learning all the moves. I’m looking forward to it.”

The rest of the confirmed cast: Noah Ringer as Aang, Jackson Rathbone (he was Jasper in Twilight) as Sokka and Nicola Peltz as Katara.

The uproar is caused by many fans who believe asians actors should be cast as the lead characters. The show itself pulls many different styles of martials arts as inspirations for the movements of ‘bending’ (the ability to manipulate the natural elements.) There is also a distinct anime style to the drawing of the series and of course, asian mythology used thru the show. But were the characters meant to be specifically any particular ethnic group? The movie is due out sometime in 2010.

Jackson Rathbone cast as ‘Sokka’

Nicola Peltz cast as ‘Katara’
