I have to hand it to Eddie Murphy, the only man in Hollywood to actually garner Razzie and Oscar nominations for the same film.  Norbet garnered Murphy five Razzies in five different categories.  He is nominated for Worst Actor, Worst Actress, Worst Supporting Actor, Worst Onscreen Couple, and Worst Screenplay (this has to be a record of some kind).  When you take on multiple roles you increase your chances to really suck exponentially.  But the real mind boggling thing is that Norbet got nominated for an Oscar for Best Makeup.  That means there is actually a possibilty that someone could actually say,” And the Oscar goes to…Norbet!?!” Oh the humanity!
