The Voting Process
The Razzie Awards are based on votes from members of the Golden Raspberry Foundation, which includes 1,179 movie buffs, film critics, and journalists from 49 U.S. states and two dozen foreign countries.

A Look Back at the Razzies
Since its inception in 1980, the Razzies have served as a humorous counterpoint to the glitz and glamour of the Oscars. While they highlight the low points of the film industry, they also remind us that even the greatest actors, directors, and films can miss the mark.
As we await the results of the 2024 Razzies, let’s remember that these awards, while entertaining, are just one perspective on the vast and diverse world of cinema. After all, one person’s ‘worst’ film could be another’s guilty pleasure.
