Hello friends my name is Archi Kesharwani today we Golden Raspberry Awards 2024: Embracing the Funny Side. Let’s talk about .
Introduction
As the movie awards season kicks in, let’s talk about the funny Golden Raspberry Awards, also known as the Razzies. It’s the 44th time they’re pointing out the not-so-great movies of the year.
Notable Nominations
Leading the list with seven nominations is “Expend4bles,” the fourth part of the action-packed but not-so-great “The Expendables” series. Tied for second place with five nominations each are “The Exorcist: Believer,” the comeback of the old horror series, and “Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey,” a unique twist on the lovable bear’s adventures. Also, big-budget superhero movies, DC’s “Shazam! Fury of the Gods” and Marvel’s “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” got four nominations each. Golden Raspberry Awards 2024
Razzies’ Past Issues and Special Recognitions
The Razzies, no stranger to issues, said sorry for past nominations causing a fuss. One notable apology was for nominating then-11-year-old actor Ryan Kiera Armstrong as the worst actress for her role in the horror remake “Firestarter.” Razzies founder, John Wilson, felt bad and talked about their commitment to saying sorry through their Redeemer Award.

Another case involved Bruce Willis, often getting Razzies for direct-to-video action films. But after Willis shared his struggles with aphasia, a language disorder, the Razzies took back the category. CLICK HERE
The History of Razzies and Membership
Starting in 1981, Razzie nominations are decided by a small group before everyone gets to vote. Surprisingly, anyone can join the voting group by paying $40 a year or $500 for life, making the awards a bit more open.
Golden Raspberry Awards 2024 : The State of the Razzies’ Website
Even with more money, the Razzies website looks like it’s from a long time ago. While they say, “Own Your Bad,” a joke is made about the website needing an upgrade for a better user experience. Golden Raspberry Awards 2024
