Joker: Folie a Deux was nominated for seven Razzies on Tuesday (Jan 21), leaving the sad clown atop the annual tongue-in-cheek list of the worst movies of the year.
The flop musical follow-up to 2019’s billion-dollar-grossing Joker picked up unwanted nods such as worst picture and worst sequel.
Joaquin Phoenix – who won best actor at the Oscars in the first Joker film – is nominated for worst actor, alongside Lady Gaga for worst actress.
The film took in US$200 million (RM888 million) – around one-fifth of its predecessor’s box office, despite being far more expensive to make – and was savaged by critics.
In a year of several high-profile expensive flops, the parody prizes awarded six nods to Francis Ford Coppola’s confusing epic Megalopolis, and Dakota Johnson’s much-mocked superhero spin-off Madame Web.
Fawning presidential biopic Reagan and video game adaptation Borderlands equally incurred the wrath of Razzie voters with six.
Jerry Seinfeld’s Unfrosted, a somewhat surreal original story for Pop-Tarts pastries, earned four.
Voted for by some 1,200 members of an irreverent group that any film fan can join, the Razzies – or Golden Raspberries – were created as an antidote to the movie industry’s self-obsessed series of glitzy award shows.
Nominations for this year’s Academy Awards will be announced Thursday. – AFP
