Organisers of the Razzies have changed the schedule for their nominations and prize ceremony. The spoof on the Academy Awards picks the year's worst films.
The Razzies used to announce contenders the night before the Oscar nominations.
Razzies founder John Wilson announced on Sunday that nominations this season will be released on February 25, the eve of the Oscar ceremony. Winners of the Razzies will be announced on April 1.
Wilson says Razzies organisers have long wanted to have their awards coincide with April Fool's Day.
A news release announcing the change also notes that it will give the 600 Razzies voters "additional time to see the dreck they will eventually nominate".
