Shawn & Marlon Wayans in 'little Man'

      *While Sharon Stone and her film “Basic Instinct 2” picked up four Razzies to lead the list of winners for the year’s worst in Hollywood, the Wayans Bros. came in second with three trophies for their 2006 comedy, “Little Man.”

      Both Shawn and Marlon Wayans received two Razzies apiece for worst actor and worst screen couple, and the film itself won for worst remake or rip-off because it borrowed the premise of a Bugs Bunny cartoon about a pint-sized hoodlum masquerading as a baby and expanded it to feature length.

       “The images of Marlon Wayans' grafted head on a 2 1/2-foot man's body were creepy rather than comical,” said Razzies founder John Wilson. "I will admit there is `so stupid it's funny,' but there is also `so stupid, get out of my face,' and that's what this movie is."     

      The Razzies are held each year in Hollywood one day before the Oscars. "Basic Instinct 2" won for worst picture, worst actress for Stone, worst screenplay and worst prequel or sequel.

      Other Razzies went to filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan ("Lady in the Water") for worst director and worst supporting actor, Carmen Electra for worst supporting actress ("Date Movie" and "Scary Movie 4" the latter featuring her as a character that spoofs Shyamalan's "The Village") and Robin Williams' road-trip comedy "RV" as worst excuse for family entertainment.
