The 2025 nominations for the controversial Golden Raspberry Awards, otherwise known as the Razzies, are in – and it's bad news for Borderlands, Madame Web, and Joker 2.
All three are up for Worst Picture, alongside Francis Ford Coppola's controversial sci-fi Megalopolis and Sean McNamara's biographical drama Reagan. While the latter filmmaker missed out on a Worst Director nod, Coppola wasn't so lucky, and will go up against the likes of S. J. Clarkson, Todd Phillips, Eli Roth, and Jerry Seinfeld, who helmed Netflix comedy Unfrosted.
Nominees were decided via the emailed ballots of 1,202 Razzie members, many of whom are film critics and journalists – though anyone can sign up by paying an annual fee of $40 or a lifetime membership of $500. Check out the full list of nominations below...

Since the Razzies were introduced back in 1981, film fans have described the event as "mean-spirited", "petty", and "unfunny". Many have called for it to be canceled over the years, too. In the past, some people have won Oscars and Razzies in the same year, including Aladdin composer Alan Menken who picked up an Academy Award for Best Original Song and a Razzie for Worst Original Song – for Aladdin and Newsies, respectively – in 1993. Sandra Bullock won Worst Actress for her role in All About Steve in 2010, before picking up the Best Actress gong for The Blind Side the very next day.
