The awards season is upon us. The Academy may have pushed the date for announcing nominations to Thursday (January 23) due to the LA wildfires, but the nominations for the 2025 Golden Raspberry Awards are out. Also known as the Razzies, the award recognizes the worst movies and performances of the year.
Celebrating its 45th year, the Razzies nominations this year highlight the worst of cinema from the year 2024. This year, Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga's highly anticipated Joker: Folie à Deux leads the nomination list with seven nominations. The film, released in 2024, opened to poor response from the audience and was box office dud, grossing $206 million worldwide against a $200 million production budget. In comparison, the first Joker earned more than $1 billion globally.
Borderlands, Madame Web, Megalopolis, and Reagan follow closely, with six nominations each.
