It’s not a surpriseย Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honeyย took home five Razzies considering itย earned a spot in some “worst movies of all time” listsย and got a 3% critics score onย Rotten Tomatoes.ย Blood and Honeyย may have been a critical disaster, but it was a huge financial success. The movie managed to gross over 60 times its budget last year, and a sequel is right around the corner.ย
Other Razzie “winners” this year included Jon Voight in Mercy for Worst Actor, Megan Fox in Johnny & Clyde for Worst Actress, Sylvester Stallone in Expend4ables for Worst Supporting Actor, and Megan Fox in Expend4ables for Worst Supporting Actress.
Marvel Studios Gets First Razzie Nominations:
This year’s Razzies caught the attention of Marvel Cinematic Universe fans whenย Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumaniaย received nominations for Worst Director, Worst Supporting Actor for both Michael Douglas and Bill Murray, and Worst Prequel, Remake, Rip-off, or Sequel. Other projects adjacent to the MCU such as Sony’sย Morbiusย have gotten nominated for the Razzies before, butย Quantumania marked the first time a Marvel Studios film got “recognized” by the awards. The movie ended up beingย one of the MCU’s worst-rated in the franchise, earning a 46% critics score onย Rotten Tomatoes.ย
As for next year, we have a feeling Sony’s Madame Web is going to be a big contender at the controversial awards.ย
