Madame Web is the worst film of the year.At least that was the pick for that dubious honor by the Razzie Awards, the longest-running bad-movie alternative to the Oscars. Every year the members of the Razzies (which is literally anyone who wants to pay to be a member) votes on their picks for the worst films of the year. And this year the consensus choice for the dregs of cinema was the disastrous Spider-Man spinoff starring Dakoja Johnson as a clairvoyant EMT worker.Johnson herself won the Razzies Worst Actress prize, and the film also won the Worst Screenplay award.The other big Razzie winners of the year (were using that term loosely here,of course) included Jerry SeinfeldsUnfrosted, which was given the awards for Worst Actor (for Seinfeld himself) and Worst Supporting Actress (for Amy Schumer), and the notoriousJoker: Folie Deux, which received the awards for Worst Sequel and for Worst Onscreen Couple for stars Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga.With very few historical exceptions,the winners of the Razzies typically stay away from the ceremony and ignore the awards entirely. But one of this years winners decided to embrace his prize.Thats Francis Ford Coppola, who won the Worst Director Razzie for hisMegalopolis, a costly (but extremely ambitious) sci-fi flop that Coppola financed himself with millions of dollars from his personal fortune after decades of attempts to mount the film through more traditional financing.I am thrilled to accept the Razzie awardwrote Coppola on his Instagram account. In this wreck of a world today, where ART is given scores as if it were professional wrestling, I chose to NOT follow the gutless rules laid down by an industry so terrified of risk that despite the enormous pool of young talent at its disposal, may not create pictures that will be relevant and alive 50 years from now. What an honor to stand alongside a great and courages filmmaker like Jacques Tati who impoverished himself completely to make one of cinemas most beloved failures, PLAYTIME!Let us remind ourselves, Coppola added, that box-office is only about money, and like war, stupidity, and politics has no true place in our future.READ MORE: The Worst Razzie Nominees in HistoryPlaytimenever won a Razzie (the awards werent even created until 1981) but nonetheless I admire Coppolas defiant spirit, just like I admired that same spirit inMegalopolis, even if the movie itself was occasionally incomprehensible and often bizarre. In other words: An easy target for the Razzies but not one of the truly bad films of 2024.
