See, I feel the complete opposite. We all know the Razzies are 1) fake 2) don't matter, but having Blood and Honey do that "well" comes across like its producers paid the Razzies and are trying to astroturf a reaction of "drat EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE THIS BAD MOVIE"

Also, it annoys me because the Razzies should be rewards for bad films where everyone/important people thought they were doing good. No one really set out to make anything but a bad film with the Pooh horror.

After she had to be browbeaten into a strike, negotiated a poo poo deal that completely caved on AI and streaming residuals, and said everyone who wouldn’t vote for it was a “contrarian?” Sure, whatever.

Yeah that struck me as Hollow. But probably the best we can get these days 😑.the eyes

Who is actually paying for the razzies question I find myself asking for the first time in my entire life? I've never really thought about who profits from them. Guess I'll Google later and be disappointed further

Edit - okay that was quick, immediately found out they don't even have to watch the movies before they recommend them for razzies.

They’re also just straight up wrong most of the time. They rarely ever pick actual bad movies, it’s usually just big financial flops that were never going to garner the praise of general audiences.

Their apparent criteria for what deserves a nomination is completely hosed to begin with.

Yeah, the Razzies aren’t grounded in a good-natured acknowledgement of how movies sometimes turn out badly, or even an effort to laugh when things go tits up. They’re tedious and hateful and frequently go after people who have a history of struggling with personal issues.

gently caress the Razzies, is what I’m saying.

Neither him or Tommy Wiseau have been nominated nor have any of their films. All their stuff tends to be big-budget stuff or particularly easy, low-bearing fruit, like Kirk Cameron and Saving Christmas.

i've said it before but i'm fairly sure when halle berry turned up to pick up her razzie she destroyed their relevance in popular culture overnight. like i recall they were known as the "haha oscars but bad movies" in comedy articles before that, and after her appearance they became known as pure tryhards

I liked what Jonathan Glazer said in his Oscars speech. Very glad to see the director of a film about the horrors of the holocaust was not blinded by the specific group the horror was done to and was able to generalize it to modern day.

I was just thinking about that and in retrospect I can see that being their high note- it was all downhill from there.

The Razzies started as a Sylvester Stallone bashing contest iirc and have been chasing whatever gives them the most publicity since. You can tell the years they are super thirsty because the nominees cast a wide net.

Over 11,000 actors submitted for ‘The Firing Squad'.

quote:

Inspired by the true story of three Christians who face execution by firing squad in a third world country. Their courage and faith in the days leading up to the execution inspire the entire prison camp and results in a stunning conclusion.

At early advanced screenings, the film has brought many to tears and many closer to Christ.

"It might be the most evangelical, hard-core Christian film ever made," said a spokesperson for VGC Studios. "All glory and honor to the Lord."

You Wouldn't Believe...
A Profound Transformation: In the darkest of hours, two American drug dealers underwent a spiritual metamorphosis, their hearts touched and forever changed by the profound embrace of Christianity, moments before facing their own execution.

An Unforgettable Spiritual Awakening: Their journey of redemption didn't stop at personal salvation; it ignited a spiritual revolution within the prison camp, guiding the souls of the most hardened criminals toward the loving embrace of Christ.

A Heart-Wrenching Finale: As the film concludes and the credits begin to cascade down the screen, brace yourself for a profoundly stirring finale. This unexpected conclusion is bound to elicit a torrent of tears, leaving viewers in a state of profound emotional upheaval.

Cuba Gooding, Jr.'s Life-Altering Experience: For acclaimed actor Cuba Gooding, Jr., this role wasn't just another character; it was a life-altering experience that led him on a journey to discover the profound solace of Christianity.

A Faithful Production Team: With the majority of the production team members and cast sharing their Christian faith, this film stands as a testament to the transformative power of belief and the resounding echoes of salvation.

Provoking Deep Reflection: Beyond mere entertainment, this film serves as a catalyst for introspection, compelling audiences to contemplate life's profound questions and prompting them to explore the true meaning of existence itself.
