According to the organisers, 87 of the top-earning 100 films last year were "sequels, remakes or rip-offs".
Unsurprisingly, many of them are nominated for the Razzies, with the latest Transformers film shortlisted in every category except worst actress.
Mocking Hollywood's reliance on franchises, the film is listed as "Transformers XVII" in the nominations.
It is, in fact, the fifth instalment in the robot-based action series.
Among its nine nominations are worst actor, for Mark Wahlberg, worst director, for Michael Bay, and worst picture.
