Bright and early tomorrow morning, this year’s Oscar nominees will be announced on ABC during Good Morning America, but while we wait to see the list of the best of the best, The Razzie Awards have done their due diligence to announce their list of contenders for worst movies of 2018.
“Who will win the most uncoveted $4.97 trophy for 2018?” says the Razzies mocking this year’s “winners. Unlike other years, it could be anyone’s game.
The movies getting the most attention are the Helen Mirren ghost story, Winchester, the Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly mockery of Sherlock, Holmes & Watson and the Muppet killer movie, the Happytime Murders, but there is still plenty of others to make fun of.
Surprisingly, not a single superhero-themed movie made the list this year and we know they weren’t all great this past year.
Now in its 39th year, The Golden Raspberry has been handed out to the worst actors, directors, on-screen couple, worst remakes and more.
Unlike the most award shows, anyone can be a member of the voting party, as long as you’re willing to pay the yearly membership fee which in addition to voting rights, members also receive bragging rights (“Your Friends And Rivals Will Now Know Your Opinion Actually Matters!” says the website.) The 39th ceremony will be held on February 23, 2019.
