Its the time of year when the hater-ade gets unleashed by film critics and commentators for the annual Razzies. The funsuck awards show takes cheap shots at feature film releases that didnt fall into favor with wide audiences. For 2024, its putting a special focus on Madame Web and Joker: Folie a Deux. While neither film set the box office on fire, both have cult potential. Some of us might even agree with Quentin Tarantinos take on Joker 2 actually being an audacious take-down of its fans and the industry at large who didnt get the first Joker film. Lady Gagas performance was a particular standout; her character needed more songs, but we have a feeling the cut songs made it onto her Prince-esque Batman companion album inspired by (Har)Lee Quinn. Among other more regrettable genre films like Eli Roths Borderlands, Jennifer Lopez Netflix vehicle Atlas, and Bill Skarsgrds Crow reboot, well still defend Madame Web. She lost her mother who died while researching spiders in the Amazon, for shame! However, Mufasa: The Lion King deserves the ire.
