The 2025 Golden Razzie Awards highlight the year’s biggest cinematic failures, featuring infamous titles like Borderlands, Madame Web, and others that epitomize mediocrity in Hollywood!
It’s that exciting time of year when Hollywood’s most notorious cinematic disasters unite to honor their collective failures at the Razzie Awards. This year, the Golden Razzies showcase a staggering lineup of films that flopped significantly, with nominees including Joker: Folie ? Deux, Madame Web, Megalopolis, Borderlands, and Reagan. These films symbolize a trend of miscalculated productions that did not resonate with audiences and critics alike, marking a year filled with disappointing cinematic endeavors.
The films Borderlands, Megalopolis, Madame Web, Joker: Folie ? Deux, and Reagan are tied for the most nominations this year, each racking up an impressive six nods. This collection of cinematic misfires forms a veritable Megazord of disappointments, showcasing a series of misguided creative choices that left audiences wanting more. Following closely are Jerry Seinfeld?s Unfrosted and The Crow, which received four and two nominations respectively. While some might argue that The Crow didn?t deserve such a harsh critique, it?s undeniable that the film lacked the spark that made the original a cult favorite, leading to its lukewarm reception.
This year?s Razzie Awards nominations feature some big names in the industry, including Joaquin Phoenix, Cate Blanchett, Lady Gaga, and Jon Voight, all competing for the dubious honor of a Golden Razzie for their performances. These actors have earned nominations for a combined total of four films, showcasing the extent of their involvement in some of the year?s most underwhelming projects. The nominees were selected through an email ballot, with participation from 1,202 members of the Razzie organization, comprised of film enthusiasts, critics, and journalists from across 49 states and nearly two dozen countries, reflecting a diverse range of opinions.
The winners of the Golden Razzie Awards, who receive a unique ?$4.97 gold spray-painted? trophy, will be officially revealed in a press release on March 1, just before the prestigious Oscars ceremony. It?s a peculiar yet entertaining tradition that highlights the less-than-stellar side of filmmaking, reminding audiences of the importance of quality and creativity in cinema.
