Razzie Awards nominations are in, "led" by 'Borderlands,' 'Joker: Folie a Deux.' 'Madame Web,' 'Megalopolis' and 'Reagan'

For anyone unfamiliar, the Razzies are the antithesis to the Oscars, seeking to spotlight, mock, and shame the “worst” movies of the year.

"Joker: Folie a Deux" was nominated for seven Razzies on Tuesday, leaving the sad clown atop the annual tongue-in-cheek list of the worst movies of the year.

Joker: Folie à Deux has been cast as the worst film of 2024. The movie starring Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix leads the field with seven nominations at the annual Golden Raspberry Awards. Madame Web,

Joker” sequel nabbed seven nominations, including for Worst Picture, Worst Actor, Worst Actress and Worst Screen Combo.
